Geoscience: Add Geology 376 as a course excluded from the Field of Geology

Update "B. Concentration in Computational Applied Mathematics." The requirement of "6 units - Mathematics 367 and 376; or Mathematics 375 and 377" is replaced with "6 units - Mathematics 367; and Mathematics 375 or 376." (Applies to both BSc and Honours).
Update "B. Concentration in Computational Applied Mathematics." Remove Mathematics 355. (Applies to both BSc and Honours).
Update "C. Concentration in Mathematical Finance and Risk Management." The requirement of "6 units - Mathematics 367 and 376; or Mathematics 375 and 377" is replaced with "6 units - Mathematics 367; and Mathematics 375 or 376." (Applies to both BSc and Honours)
Update "C. Concentration in Mathematical Finance and Risk Management." Remove Mathematics 355. (Applies to both BSc and Honours).
Clarify list in Actuarial Science Minor to state, "Courses from the Field of Actuarial Science at the 400 level or higher" rather than, "All Actuarial Science courses; Statistics 421, 507, 533, 543"
Updates have been made to the suspended Applied Mathematics, Pure Mathematics and Statistics programs to reflect deleted courses (Mathematics 277 and 355).

Honours Program

Remove Neuroscience 421 as a specific program requirement.Reduce the number of units required from "Neuroscience 474, 475, 477, 478, 479, 521, 531" from 15 units to 12 units. Additionally, allow students to fulfill their 12 units with any combination of the listed courses, rather than requiring at least 3 units in each of the areas of Human Neuroscience, Biological Neuroscience or Behavioural Neuroscience.
Increase the number of Options from 21 units to 27 units.

Major Program

Remove Neuroscience 421 as a specific program requirement.
Remove the requirement of students needing at least 3 units in each of the areas of Human Neuroscience, Biological Neuroscience or Behavioural Neuroscience.
Increase the number of Options from 39 units to 42 units

Natural Science

Remove sentence "Students may not register in more than 60 units if they have not been admitted to a
concentration."
Remove Science 507 from the Field of Natural Sciences.
In both the BSc and Honours, remove note recommending students interested in Physics take the 70 series of calculus.
In both the BSc and Honours, remove requirement of "6 units of course work accompanied by a laboratory
component."
Add Computer Science 251 as a required course in the Computer Science Primary Concentration.
Reduce the number of units required in the Field of Computer Science from 18 units to 15 units in the Computer Science Primary Concentration.
Remove Physics 255 from the required courses in the Energy Science Primary Concentration. Physics 255 is long discontinued.
Change the requirement of "Energy and Environment, Engineering 355" to "Energy and Environment, Engineering 355 or Science 317." (Remove Science 317 from the 15 units of
energy science content).
Update the Geoscience Primary Concentration by removing discontinued courses (Geology 203 and 341) and note that is no longer relevant.
Replace Mathematics 375 with Mathematics 376 in the Mathematics Primary Concentration program requirements.
Revise the first 6 units from the Physics Primary Concentration to be in-line with the first year courses taken by Physics Majors (6 units - Physics 211 or 221 and 229).
Remove Physics 255 from the required courses in the Physics Primary Concentration.
Remove footnote stating that students can use courses in Astrophysics and clarify requirement by simply stating,"Course in the Field of Physics or the Field of Astrophysics."
Replace the "Field of General Mathematics" with the "Field of Mathematics" in the Mathematics Secondary
Concentration.
Update the requirement of "3 units - English literature" to "3 units - English or French literature."
