On this page: 396 undergraduate research project courses听触 Other research courses
Here are two lists of research courses for undergraduate Science students. These courses all count towards the requirements of the:
- Dean's Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Research List (DMURL), subject to the note below, as well as the
- B.Sc. Global Designation for students who broaden their horizons by participating in language classes, performing research, and including the "real-world" (global-related study and/or non-成人大片 study or work experience) in their program.
'396' research courses
Science students can take these courses outside their own departments or programs. Registration always requires permission from both the project supervisor and from the academic unit offering the course. (Example: Biology student + Chemistry professor = Ask Department of Chemistry for permission to register for CHEM 396.)聽Registration is not restricted to upper-year students. More information.

Other research courses
These courses are often (not always) reserved for upper-year students who are registered in the same department.

Notes about specific courses
- : Although this course is offered by the Faculty of Agricultural聽& Environmental Sciences, it is an approved course for the B.Sc. Environment Major. Note that this course is restricted to students enrolled in the Barbados Field Study Semester.
- and : Effective January 2021, students may count either BIOL 451 or GEOG 451, but not both, toward the DMURL. These courses are restricted to students enrolled in the 成人大片 East Africa Field Study Semester.
- : Until academic year 2013/2014, this course may have been taken as either a reading course or a research course. To count towards the DMURL, the work completed for the course must be research rather than reading. Starting in September 2014, EPSC 482 is only for research projects, and counts towards the DMURL (whereas the new course EPSC 460 will be for reading projects).
About D1/D2 courses, and N1/N2 courses
- A course in the format 础叠颁顿听123 is a 'regular' one-semester course, given in the fall, winter, and/or summer semester.
- A course in the format 础叠颁顿听123 D1 and 础叠颁顿听123 D2 'span' two consecutive semesters, usually starting in the fall semester and continuing in the winter semester.
- A course in the format 础叠颁顿听123N1 and 础叠颁顿听123N2 'spans' two non-consecutive semesters (for example, winter + fall).
- Some 'regular' courses are also given as 'span' courses (or vice versa). Such courses are only listed once in the table above, not in all possible variants, for the sake of brevity. Please consult the class schedule for full details.
- A course that is listed in the table counts toward the DMURL whether you take it in the one-semester 'regular' form (e.g. NSCI聽410, 6 credits per term, one term only) or in the multi-semester 'span' form (e.g., NSCI 410D1 + NSCI 410D2, 3 credits in each term, 2 terms, 6 credits total).
