Overview

The Integrated Science programme from Dalhousie University is a unique way for science students to begin their BSc, preparing a small cohort of students (maximum 80) to enter any major or combination of majors in the Faculty of Science. You will start your second year with a background in a broad range of science subjects, and with lots of hands-on experience, including lab, field, computer and writing skills.

What you will learn

Integrated Science provides an enriched science experience emphasizing research and integration across the sciences. You will learn research methods, field and laboratory techniques, teamwork, critical thinking, problem-solving, numeric and statistical techniques, planning, organization, and written and oral communication skills. This focus on ‘skills development’ is excellent preparation for academic, research, and co-op work.

In the Integrated Science programme, you will receive more hands-on practice and learn more transferable skills. In addition to lectures and readings, you will also learn through laboratory activities, field trips, computer exercises, research projects, and more.
