CHM299 Research Opportunities

The faculty-wide ROP 299H/Y (Research Opportunity Program) is heartily embraced by the Chemistry Department with multiple projects offered each summer and fall/winter (as courses CHM 299H & CHM 299Y). Students are eligible to apply if they are registered as a full- or part-time student entering their second or third year of an undergraduate degree program within the Faculty of Arts & Science at the St. George campus, and have accumulated between 4.0-13.5 credits (including transfer credits) by the end of the April examination period. For an ROP 299Y course, participating students work in the laboratory of a faculty member for approximately 24 weeks during the fall and winter semesters (7-8 hours per week) or 12 weeks during the summer (14-16 hours per week). The program represents a fabulous way to gain invaluable research experience and a full or half course credit simultaneously.
