General Information

The Arts & Science Academic Calendar has all the requirements, rules and regulations for completing your degree, programs and courses. All of the School’s courses and their prerequisites, corequisites, and recommended preparation courses, as well as the breadth category for the courses, are described in the Arts & Science Academic Calendar entry for the School of the Environment.

Please note: Many courses offered by the School of the Environment have pre-requisites and/or enrolment controls. If you do not meet the pre-requisites of a course or wish to enroll in an "E" enrolment-indicator course, please e-mail the Undergraduate Administrator.

Use the Timetable Builder to look up which courses are being offered in each term, their schedule, their building location*, and the instructor (*room numbers are only available on ACORN for the courses in which you are enrolled). Using the “Additional course information” link, you can also view the course description, including whether a course has prerequisites, corequisites, and/or recommended courses in the Arts & Science Academic Calendar.

    Syllabi can be found on our new Undergraduate SharePoint site. You must login with a UTORid.
