�ċ�ċ�ċ�ċ�ċ�ċElective Recommendation Notes

The 0.5 unit of EARTH at 300-level could be selected from EARTH 322 or EARTH 421.
Program electives specific to the ecology specialization must be selected from Approved List 1 and List 2 courses specified in the UG Calendar.
Students must select ENGL 109 as an elective if they wish to gain membership in the College of Applied Biology of British Columbia (e.g., Registered Professional Biologist, R.P. Bio.); this designation is an employment requirement for certain ecological and environmental science positions in British Columbia.
Many positions in ecology and environmental science require knowledge of environmental law. Students are encouraged to select ENVS 201 (Introduction to Canadian Environmental Law) as an elective.
One 400-level BIOL field course is recommended. Field courses are intensive two-week courses held at off-campus locations during the spring term. Enrolment in field courses works differently than regular course enrolment.
