How to read the course descriptions

In the following section are brief outlines of the courses prescribed for students in the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, listed in alphabetical order of the prefixes. The suffix following the course number indicates the term in which the course is given; the second line of the description shows the program and year for which the course is prescribed, the number of hours of lectures, laboratory and tutorial work per week, and the weight units assigned to the course.

Sample

CHE 460H1 S
Environmental Pathways and Impact Assessment
IV-AEESCBASCV; III-AEMECBASCE, IV-AECHEBASC (elective)
3/-/2/12
 

CHE: Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry
460: Course number
S: A second-term (spring) course. F would indicate a first-term or fall course; F/S would indicate that the course given in the first term is repeated in the second term (a student may take one or the other, but not both);Y would indicate a course that continues over both terms, i.e. a year-long course.
IV-AEESCBASCV: The course is compulsory for Fourth Year (IV) Engineering Science (5) in the Environmental (env) option
IV-AEMECBASC, IV-AEMECBASCE: The course is an elective for Fourth Year (IV) Mechanical Engineering (3) and an elective for Mechanical Engineering materials option (3mat)
3: three hours lectures/week
-: no laboratories
2 : 2 hours of tutorials/week
0.50: equals one half credits

In addition to the 100-, 200-, 300- and 400-series courses, this calendar also lists courses in the 500- and 1000-series. The 500-series courses are graduate courses that are also intended for Fourth Year undergraduates; 1000-series are graduate courses.

Many course descriptions include a statement of exclusions, prerequisites and co-requisites. The absence of such a statement does not imply that the course does not have such conditions. In these statements, the solidus symbol (/) means OR, and the comma (,) means AND.

The recommendations for textbooks should be considered as tentative only, and subject to change. Students should therefore not purchase textbooks until they have been in attendance in the course, unless informed otherwise by their department.
