DETERMINE YOUR COURSE LOAD The number of courses you take in your first year will depend on your individual circumstances. After reviewing the program pages for the degrees you're considering, use the course load information below to help guide your decision. 1-2 Courses Per Term (Part-Time)
• A good option if you have significant commitments outside of school, such as work or sports. • Taking 1-2 courses per term (3-6 credit hours) classifies you as a part-time student and may affect eligibility for funding and benefits, including scholarships, student loans, health coverage, and U-Pass. • Contact the Financial Aid and Awards Office to understand how your course load may affect you. • International students should consult the International Centre to confirm full-time status requirements for Fall and Winter terms. • This course load may not earn you enough credit hours to apply to your target degree program after your first year. 3 Courses Per Term (Full-Time) • Taking 3 courses per term (9 credit hours) classifies you as a full-time student. • Full-time status is often the minimum requirement for government student loans, sponsorships, and (for international students) study permits. • Full-time students are eligible for benefits such as UMSU Health and Dental. • This course load may not earn you enough credit hours to apply to your target degree program after your first year. 4 Courses Per Term (Full-Time) • Taking 4 courses per term (12 credit hours) classifies you as a full-time student. • Many UM degree programs require a minimum of 24 credit hours to be eligible to apply. • Most scholarships, including Entrance Scholarships, require an 80% course load, which is 4 courses per term. 5 Courses Per-Term (Full-Time) • Taking 5 courses per term (15 credit hours) classifies you as a full-time student. • For many first-year students, this is the maximum course load permitted. • With this course load, it's recommended to limit other commitments such as work or extracurricular activities. • Balancing 5 courses can be challenging, especially while adjusting to university expectations. • Some UM degree programs require 5 courses (15 credit hours) per term to be eligible to apply by the end of the first year.
If you have questions about determining your course load, speak with an Academic Advisor in the First Year Centre.

UNDECIDED? NOT SURE WHICH DEGREE IS RIGHT FOR YOU? DON’T WANT TO RUSH INTO CHOOSING A DEGREE? THAT’S OKAY! Your first year at the University of Manitoba is a great opportunity to explore different courses, discover your interests, and learn about possible career paths. By the time you register for your second year, you'll likely have a clearer sense of the degree you want to pursue and can begin selecting courses that align with that program's requirements.
What courses should I take in my first year? • If you haven’t chosen a degree yet, you won’t have a specific course list to follow when registering for your first year. Instead, you can use the Recommended Introductory Courses List to explore a wide range of courses and register in those that interest you. • You can also view the Faculties and Programs List to see all undergraduate degree programs offered at the University of Manitoba.
What is the Recommended Introductory Courses List? • The Recommended Introductory Courses List includes courses that new students are eligible to take in their first year. Some subjects may feel familiar from high school, while others may be entirely new. • Courses on this list are grouped by the faculty that offers them, making it easier to explore academic areas across the university.
How do I use the Recommended Introductory Courses List to pick courses? • Browse the Recommended Introductory Courses List, including subjects you may not recognize. Click on a course code (for example, BIOL 1020) to review important details such as the course description, prerequisites, and any registration restrictions. • Make a list of courses that interest you and note the faculty offering each one. Be sure to include the course codes - you’ll need them when registering. • When it’s time to register, choose your courses from the list you've created.
What's next for me? • As you explore courses, start researching degrees that include the courses you find most interesting and learn about the careers connected to those degree programs. • If you notice that many of your preferred courses come from a particular faculty, visit the Faculties and Programs List to review degree options available. Each program page provides detailed information about program requirements, opportunities such as co-op or experiential learning, and potential career outcomes.
Things to consider when using your first year to explore • Taking time to explore courses, degrees, and careers can help you feel confident and informed about your academic direction. However, some programs have specific timelines, GPA requirements, or prerequisite courses, which may affect when you're eligible to apply. • Be sure to set aside some time during your first year to research degree options and career pathways. Exploring courses is an important first step - but it's only one part of making an informed decision about your academic future.

Admission to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM) requires at least 60 credit hours of university-level study, including specific courses listed in the chart. • CHEM 1120 isn't included in the 60 credit hours required for admission. UM applicants will apply to WCVM with at least 63 credit hours, including CHEM 1120. • All applicants must complete at least two full years of university courses. The definition of a "full year" for this purpose is 24 credit hours in each of two Regular Sessions (i.e. September-April). • CHEM 1120 won't count as part of the 24 credit hours for a full year of university courses. If a student wishes to take CHEM 1120 during a Regular Session, they must take 27 credit hours total during a Regular Session to meet the requirement of a full year of university courses. • WCVM strongly recommends that applicants complete 30 credit hours per year to ensure their preparedness and future success.

TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES • BIOL 1020, BIOL 1030, CHEM 1100, and CHEM 1130 are prerequisites for required Year 2 courses. It's recommended that these courses be completed in the first year. • AGRI 1600, HNSC 1200, or HNSC 1210 is a prerequisite for AGRI 2400 (M) in the second year. It's recommended that one of these courses be completed in the first year, as part of your electives. • In lieu of AGRI 2400 (M), you can take STAT 1000 (M) to meet the Statistics requirement for admission to the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (WCVM). However, AGRI 2400 (M) is required for all degree programs in the Faculty of Agricultural and Food Sciences. • AGRI 2030 (W) meets the 3-credit hour English requirement. In lieu of AGRI 2030 (W), you may take ENGL 1340 (W) or ENGL 1400 (W) to meet the W requirement for admission to the WCVM. However, AGRI 2030 (W) is required for all degree programs in the Faculty of Agriculture and Food Sciences. • Choose electives from the Recommended Introductory Courses List. • If you're not admitted to Veterinary Medicine after completing 63 credit hours, you may choose to complete an Animal Systems degree. To pursue the Pre-Veterinary pathway in parallel with an Animal Systems degree, it's recommended that you select the following electives: • ABIZ 1000 • AGRI 1600 • ECON 1010 • ANSC 2500 • ANSC 2510 • ANSC 2520 • HNSC 1200 or HNSC 1210 • MATH 1300 (M) or MATH 1210 (M) or MATH 1500 (M) or MATH 1510 (M) or MATH 1524 (M)
• To complete all courses listed in the charts within your first two years of university study, you must either take courses during the Summer Term between your first and second year or take 33 credit hours during the Regular Session in Year 2. Consider taking CHEM 1120 during the Summer Term, as this course doesn't count toward the requirement of 24 credit hours in a Regular Session (September-April).

FACULTY OF EDUCATION BACHELOR OF EDUCATION, B.Ed. (AFTER DEGREE) TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES • Students must complete an undergraduate degree, including stream-specific requirements (if applicable), before applying to the Faculty of Education. Browse the Faculties and Programs List to see undergraduate degrees available at UM. • Use the steps below to plan your course selection based on your intended degree, teaching stream, teachable subjects, and any specializations you may wish to pursue.
Step 1: Decide which grade levels you want to teach Choose your teaching stream based on the age group you're most interested in: • Early Years: Kindergarten to Grade 4 | Middle Years: Grades 5 to 8 | Senior Years: Grades 9 to 12 • Your choice will influence your teachable subjects and course selection.
Step 2: Choose your teachable subject(s) Early or Middle Years don't require specific subjects, but you can add an optional specialization (18 credit hours). For Senior Years you need two teachable subjects: • First teachable subject: 24 credit hours (or 30 credit hours for specializations) • Second teachable subject: 15 credit hours (or 18 credit hours for specializations)
Step 3: Consider a specialization (optional) You can focus on an optional specialization in one of the following areas: • Art | Human Ecology (Home Economics) | Music Education | Physical Education • Each specialization requires specific coursework (18–30 credit hours). Check the Planning Chart for more details.
Step 4: Choose courses for your first year To be eligible to apply to the B.Ed. Program, complete a first degree with at least 90 credit hours. When choosing first year courses: • Follow the requirements of your intended first degree. • Choose courses that match your teachable subject(s) or specializations (if applicable), reflect your interests and academic strengths, and help you meet B.Ed. admission requirements. • Consider taking EDUA 1790 / EDUB 1790: Introduction to Education. • Choose courses from the Recommended Introductory Courses List to help you get started.
EARLY AND MIDDLE YEARS PLANNING CHART There are no required courses for Early and Middle Years, but you can choose an optional specialization. If you select a specialization and your first degree isn’t in that area, you’ll need 18 credit hours of specific coursework, as outlined below.

! MINIMUM ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
There are no prerequisites or preferred courses for admission to Law. Any 60 graded credit hours of universitylevel coursework will be considered for admission. Choose courses in which you have personal interest to increase your chances of earning high grades, as admission to Law is competitive. You can choose your courses from the Recommended Introductory Courses List. Minimum requirements are outlined in the Faculty of Law 2027-2028 Advanced Entry admission requirements.
TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES • When choosing first-year courses, consider the faculty or program you may want to enter in Year 2. Many students opt to complete a degree prior to admission to law school, so it's a good idea to consider the degree requirements of your second year faculty when choosing courses. • The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) doesn't assume any specialized knowledge, but is designed to measure your ability to read, understand, and reason. Choose courses that further the development of these skills. • You're strongly recommended to register in courses with a writing component. This helps you develop writing and research skills at the post-secondary level. • Contact an Academic Advisor in the First Year Centre to confirm whether Summer Term courses can be used to meet admission requirements for your target degree program.

FACULTY OF SCIENCE
DEGREES OFFERED BY THE FACULTY OF SCIENCE B.Sc. GENERAL – (90 CREDIT HOURS) A three-year degree providing broad training in a number of diverse Science disciplines. Choose the B.Sc. General if you: • Are seeking general education in natural and/or mathematical sciences • Plan to enter a program that requires a first degree (e.g. Education, Occupational Therapy, or Medicine)
B.Sc. MAJOR – (120 CREDIT HOURS) A four-year degree focused on deeper study within a primary science discipline, best suited for students preparing for a career in that discipline. Major programs aren't intended for students who wish to pursue graduate studies (ex. Master’s or PhD). However, if a student completes a Major program and wishes to pursue graduate studies, they can usually do so without difficulty.
B.Sc. HONOURS – (120 CREDIT HOURS) A four-year degree providing an intensive and rigorous examination of a single science subject. This program requires full-time study and has higher grade requirements compared to General and Major programs. Honours programs are best suited for students planning to pursue graduate studies (e.g.. Master’s or PhD). Students who are interested in pursuing an Honours program should connect with advisors in the Faculty of Science.
CO-OPERATIVE EDUCATION (CO-OP) A form of experiential learning that integrates academic, classroom-based learning, with relevant, paid work experience. Most Honours and Major programs in the Faculty of Science have Co-op options. Review the Science Coop Program page for more information.
MINOR (18 CREDIT HOURS) The Major is the primary area of study, forming the core of your degree coursework. In contrast, the Minor is a secondary field consisting of 18 credit hours. It may be unrelated to the Major (e.g. Biology major Philosophy minor). Students in the General program don't have the option of declaring a minor. Students in Honours and Major programs have the option of declaring a minor.
PREPARING FOR A HEALTH-RELATED PROFESSION IN THE FACULTY OF SCIENCE Science degrees provide strong preparation for health-related and professional programs by developing foundational scientific knowledge and analytical skills. Taking introductory courses in Biological Sciences, Chemistry, Microbiology, Physics, Statistics, and Mathematics can often lead to Life Sciences degree programs, and meet admission prerequisites for many professional health-related programs. Many professional health-related programs also require entrance exams (e.g. standardized tests) and interviews. If you plan to apply to programs at the University of Manitoba, review their program pages in the First Year Planning Guide for further details: • Dentistry • Medicine
• Pharmacy • Physical Therapy • Occupational Therapy • Respiratory Therapy
• Nursing
If you plan to apply to a program outside of the University of Manitoba, consult with that institution’s website and admissions information, as requirements vary from school to school. Common external programs include the Western College of Veterinary Medicine (University of Saskatchewan) and the School of Optometry & Vision Science (University of Waterloo).

TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES • Deciding between a 3-year General Science Degree and a 4-year degree (Honours or Major)? Consult the program planning page for the specific 4-year degree for more course planning information. • When choosing first-year Science courses, consider upper-level Science subjects you want to focus on later in your degree. Biology
If you plan to take upper-level Biology courses, take BIOL 1020 and BIOL 1030. Note: BIOL 1410 and BIOL 1412 aren't prerequisites for most upper-level Biology courses - they're intended for students targeting health-related programs.
Chemistry
If you plan to take upper-level Chemistry courses, take CHEM 1100, CHEM 1110, and CHEM 1120.
Mathematics
If you plan to take upper-level Math courses, take MATH 1220 (M), MATH 1230 (M), MATH 1232 (M), and MATH 1240 (M) (or substitutes listed).
If you plan to take upper-level Microbiology courses, take BIOL 1020, BIOL 1030, MBIO 1010, Microbiology CHEM 1100, CHEM 1110, and CHEM 1120. Note: MBIO 1220 is intended for students targeting Nursing, and isn't a prerequisite for upper-level MBIO courses. Statistics
If you plan to take upper-level Statistics courses, take STAT 1150 (M), STAT 2150 (M), MATH 1230 (M), and MATH 1232 (M) (or substitutes listed).
• If you plan to take Computer Science as Introductory Science courses, and don't have previous programming experience, it's a good idea to take COMP 1000 before COMP 1010 (or COMP 1012). • Choose your Faculty of Arts courses and elective from the Recommended Introductory Courses List.

UM COURSE OPTIONS FOR UPGRADING If you're missing a high school prerequisite or didn't achieve the required grade for prerequisite purposes, you can upgrade your high school courses at the University of Manitoba. Upgrading courses can be taken concurrently with (at the same time as) your other university courses, providing the courses you're upgrading aren't required as their prerequisites. Some upgrading courses aren't eligible for university credit and won't count toward your overall course load. Remember this when considering minimum course load requirements for program admission, financial aid (e.g. student loans, bursaries, scholarships), study permits, and other related requirements.
BIOLOGY 40S Biology: Foundations of Life • Prerequisite: Minimum 50% in any 40S Mathematics course or MATH 1018 (M) (C) or MSKL 0100 (C).
BIOL 1000
• Counts as university credit. BIOL 1000 (C) can be used as prerequisite for BIOL 1020. However, if a student takes BIOL 1020 after taking BIOL 1000, they will lose credit for BIOL 1000. • Register using Aurora.
CHEMISTRY 40S CHEM 1018
Chemistry - The Central Science • Register using Aurora.
MATH 40S Mathematical Skills MSKL 0100
• Doesn't count as university credit. However, it can be used as a prerequisite for university-level courses that require any Mathematics 40S course. • Register through Extended Education.
MATH 1018 (M)
Pre-Calculus in Practice • Register using Aurora.
PHYSICS 40S The Mechanics of Nature PHYS 1018
• Prerequisite or co-requisite: Minimum 50% in Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S or 50% in Applied Mathematics or MATH 1018 (M) (C) or MSKL 0100 (C). • Register using Aurora.
EXTERNAL UPGRADING OPTIONS You can also upgrade high school courses outside of the University of Manitoba through an Adult Education Centre. Typically, externally completed upgrading courses don't carry university credit and don't contribute to your overall course load.
