  • BANT HONOURS BSc IN BIOANTHROPOLOGY
  • BIOL 3-YEAR BSc IN BIOLOGY
  • BIOL 4-YEAR BSc IN BIOLOGY
  • BIOL HONOURS BSc IN BIOLOGY

Read from the departments' own calendar pages, where 71 of 141 programs are only partly machine-readable, so treat these as a minimum rather than the full list. Confirm with an academic advisor.
