Where IS-2301 counts

Counts toward 6 more as one option among several, not as a course you must take:

  • ENV 3-YEAR BA (SUSTAINABLE URBAN ENVIRONMENTS)
  • ENV 4-YEAR BA (SUSTAINABLE URBAN ENVIRONMENTS)
  • ENV HONOURS BA (SUSTAINABLE URBAN ENVIRONMENTS)
  • IDS 3-YEAR BA IN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STUDIES
  • IDS 4-YEAR BA IN INTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STUDIES
  • IS MINOR IN INDIGENOUS STUDIES

Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 50 of 208 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
