*You must have the prerequisites for any course you take. We will not override prerequisites in order to allow you to progress more quickly.

NOTES:
• Check and consult the Undergraduate Calendar for former course numbers, other equivalents and for prerequisites.
• Changes have been made to the list of required courses as given in the Undergraduate Calendar to accommodate the requirements of the University of Manitoba’s pre-med professional preparation: CHEM 1310 replaces CHEM 1320 ; CHEM 2360 and CHEM 2370 replace CHEM 2770 and CHEM 2780.
• HNS (department) electives are the student’s choice. To graduate, the student MUST include 15 credits of department electives (listed below).
• Courses designated as electives will fulfill the 24 credit hours of electives listed as degree requirements in the Undergraduate Calendar. The courses listed as electives meet the requirements of the University of Manitoba’s pre-med professional preparation.
• June 1, 2006 Announcement - Change in Entrance Requirement for the Faculty of Medicine 

The Faculty of Medicine will no longer require applicants to have specific English or French literature courses as a pre-requisite to Medicine. We have, as a result, increased the Humanities/Social Science Requirement. 

As a result of change in the entrance requirement applicants must now have completed at least 18 credit hours in the humanities/social sciences. Applicants who complete a 4 Year Major or Honours program may waive up to 12 
credit hours of the humanities/social sciences prerequisite. Applicants with a BSc (General) or BA (General) must complete the full requirement. The Admissions Committee is currently considering reducing the number of credit 
hours that may be waived. Students planning to apply in future years should consider taking the full requirement. The Faculty of Arts describes the recognized subject fields for humanity and social science requirements in 
section 5.1.1 of the Undergraduate Calendar. Further changes are expected to entrance requirements beginning September 2009. Please review with the Faculty of Medicine.
