The Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology offers courses that deal with cell biology, histology, embryology, neuroanatomy, and gross anatomy. The Honours Program is designed as the first phase in the training of career cell and molecular biologists. The Major and Faculty or Liberal programs offer decreasing levels of specialization in Anatomy and Cell Biology but with a broader base in other biological sciences. These programs also form a sound background for graduate studies in Anatomy and Cell Biology, or for further professional training in schools of medicine, dentistry and other health sciences. A B.Sc. in Anatomy and Cell Biology provides an excellent preparation for technical and administrative positions in laboratories of universities, research institutions, hospitals and pharmaceutical and biotechnological industries.
The Department is equipped to perform cell fractionation, protein purification, recombinant DNA technology, micro-injection of molecules into single cells, cytochemical, immunocytochemical and fluorescent analysis and electron microscopy, proteomics and genomics. The Department has a well-equipped centre for electron microscopy as well as a centre for confocal and immunofluorescence.
Inquiries about programs should be directed to the Department of Anatomy and Cell Biology.
A Science Major Concentration in Biomedical Sciences is available to students pursuing the B.A. & Sc. degree. This Major Concentration is described in the Bachelor of Arts and Science section of the Calendar; see "Biomedical Sciences", in section 6.12.4 for details.

HONOURS IN ANATOMY AND CELL BIOLOGY
(73 credits)
Students should register at the Major level in U1 and, if accepted, may enter the Honours Program at the beginning of U2. To enter the program, the student must obtain a CGPA of at least 3.00 at the end of U1. For promotion to the U3 year of the Honours program, or for entry into the program at this level, the student must have a CGPA of at least 3.20 at the end of their U2 year. It is expected that at the beginning of the third year the students who wish to continue in the Honours Program will be those who feel that they are seriously interested in a career in Cell Biology. The Honours Degree will be recommended after successful completion of the Program with a CGPA of at least 3.20.
