Biomedical Physiology Major
Bachelor of Science
This program leads to a bachelor of science (BSc) in biomedical physiology.
Note that students cannot combine: a double major, nor a double minor, nor a major/minor program in the areas of kinesiology, biomedical physiology, and behavioural neurosicence.
Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Requirements
Bachelor of science program entry is possible via
- direct admission from high school
- transfer from a recognized post-secondary institution
- internal transfer from within Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV
Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV is competitive. A separate admission average for each of the three entry routes is established each term, depending on spaces available and subject to the dean’s approval.
Direct Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV – High School
See Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Requirements at
Post-secondary Transfer
Students transferring to Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV for the biomedical physiology major program will first transfer into the Faculty of Science as an intended major. Students may then apply for admission to the biomedical physiology major through the internal transfer process outlined below.
Internal Transfer
Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV students applying for Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology admission must complete the following courses with a grade of C- or better
Students complete all of

- PHYS 101-3 Physics for the Life Sciences I
- PHYS 120-3 Mechanics and Modern Physics
- PHYS 125-3 Mechanics and Special Relativity
- PHYS 140-4 Studio Physics - Mechanics and Modern Physics
Applicants are selected based on an admission grade point average (GPA) calculated over these five required courses, together with any of the following courses.

- PHYS 141-4 Studio Physics - Optics, Electricity and Magnetism
and
- STAT 201-3 Statistics for the Life Sciences
Apply for admission as soon as the five required courses have been completed. Unsuccessful applicants may complete a minimum of 4 or more courses from the list of 12 to improve the admission GPA. A C- grade or better is required in each course used for the admission application. Those not meeting the admission GPA upon completion of all 12 additional courses will be advised of alternatives. For students transferring some core courses from another post-secondary institution, only courses completed at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV (and not previously completed elsewhere) are used in the admission GPA.
Normally, at least 15 units from core courses are required as a basis for the GPA calculation. Exceptions must be approved by the department.
Application Procedure
Students should complete a program approval form available on the Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology website and submit it to the academic advisor by June 1 for fall term approval, October 1 for spring term approval, or February 1 for summer term approval.
Continuance Requirement
After a student has completed 24 credits, a Science cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of not less than 2.50 is required for continuance in the major. Students, whose Science CGPA falls below 2.50, will be sent a warning letter and if at the end of the subsequent term the Science CGPA is less than 2.50, these students shall be withdrawn from the BIF or KIN Major. Students who have completed 90 or more units and whose Science CGPA falls below a 2.50, but is at least 2.00, will be allowed to complete their Biomedical Physiology or Kinesiology major. Students must achieve a minimum of a C- grade in all required courses.
Additional Clarification will be posted on BPK's websites
Prerequisite and Required Course Grades
Students enrolling in biomedical physiology and kinesiology courses must have a grade of C- or better in prerequisite courses. Students enrolled in the biomedical physiology major must have a grade of C- or better in all required courses.
Program Requirements
Students complete 120-121 units for this major program, as specified below.
Lower Division Requirements
Students complete all of

Biomechanics
(3)
This course will cover the application of basic mechanics to human movement. It will provide students with a basic understanding of how forces act on body segments and how movements are produced. The subject matter of this course is relevant to quantifying all forms of physical activity, from activities of daily living, physically challenged movement patterns, to elite athletic performance. It also has applications in medical settings, including rehabilitation and sports medicine. Prerequisite: MATH 150, 151 or 154, MATH 152 or 155 (may be taken concurrently), PHYS 101 (or 120 or 125 or 140), BPK 142. Quantitative.

Introduction to Human Physiology
(3)
An introductory survey of human physiology with an emphasis on mechanisms of regulation and integration. Anatomy of structures will be detailed only when it is critical to a functional understanding. Although this is intended as a survey course, some topics will be covered in reasonable detail in order to give insight into mechanisms of function. Prerequisite: BISC 101, CHEM 281, PHYS 101 and 102. BPK 208 may not be used as a substitute for BPK 205 by students in the BPK Major and Honours programs. BPK Major and Honours students who have taken BPK 105 must also take BPK 205. For students taking both of these courses, credit will only be given for BPK 205.

#A maximum of six units from these courses may be used towards the List B requirements
Unspecified and Partially Specified Electives
A total of 18 elective units are also required. These 18 units must include units from courses that will satisfy the University breadth requirement of six units each of designated humanities breadth (B-Hum) and social science breadth (B-Soc), and three units of lower division writing (W). The quantitative (Q) and science breadth (B-Sci) requirements are satisfied through the completion of the biomedical physiology major lower division core course set. For more information, please visit .
Professional School Transfer
Students are eligible to receive a bachelor of science (BSc) degree after the completion of their second year of professional study if they have completed at least 90 units of Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV credit normally comprising the following:
- all lower division requirements
- the upper division core requirements for their major
- acceptance into an accredited professional program in dentistry, medicine, optometry, chiropractic, or veterinary medicine
Professional program courses must not duplicate those already completed at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV and must be acceptable for transfer credit to the University. Candidates apply for transfer credit and for receipt of the degree through Student Services.
University Degree Requirements
Students must also satisfy University degree requirements for degree completion.
NOTE: Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV students accepted in the accelerated master's within the Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology may apply a maximum of nine BPK graduate course units, taken while completing the bachelor's degree, towards the upper division electives of the bachelor's program and the requirements of the master's degree.
