You can also opt to transfer into a BSc General, which is typically completed in three years. You will pursue at least one field of science \u2013 taking at least eight courses in that field \u2013 and we encourage students who remain in the Honours program to select a second area of study as well, either another area of science or a non-science field. These two areas fit into the degree, leaving plenty of room for additional study in areas of interest. The following programs in science offer minors that ISAP students will choose from, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth Sciences: Earth Resources and Processes, Food Science, Physical Geography, Geomatics, Mathematics, Neuroscience and Mental Health, Physics and Statistics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_description_type":[28],"class_list":["post-451","cu_description","type-cu_description","status-publish","hentry","cu_description_type-general"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_description\/451","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_description"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_description"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_description\/451\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=451"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_description_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/isap\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_description_type?post=451"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
