Pharmacology
Program Description
The objective of these programs is to provide access to the first year of study towards “General” or “Honours & Specialization” Programs which can be transferred to a degree-granting institution.
Keyano College’s Bachelor of Science programs have been developed in close cooperation with the University of Alberta. The University approves courses first before they can be offered; content and credit weights are the same as the University.
While the majority of university transfer programs at Keyano College are modeled on the University of Alberta programs, students can successfully apply to transfer to the University of Lethbridge or the University of Calgary, as well as other degree-granting institutions elsewhere in Canada as long as they meet the entrance requirements.
Admission Requirements
