Biomedical Physiology Minor
Note that students cannot combine a biomedical physiology minor with any other major or minor in the areas of kinesiology and behavioural neuroscience.
Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Requirements
Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV students applying for admission to the biomedical physiology minor program must complete the following courses with a grade of C- or better.
Students complete all of
- BISC 101-4 General Biology
- BPK 142-3 Introduction to Kinesiology
- CHEM 121-4 General Chemistry and Laboratory I
and one of
- MATH 150-4 Calculus I with Review
- MATH 151-3 Calculus I
- MATH 154-3 Calculus I for the Biological Sciences
and one 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.
- BISC 102-4 General Biology
- CHEM 122-2 General Chemistry II
- CHEM 126-2 General Chemistry Laboratory II
- CHEM 281-4 Organic Chemistry I
- BPK 205-3 Introduction to Human Physiology
- BPK 207-3 Sensorimotor Control and Learning
- MBB 222-3 Molecular Biology and Biochemistry
- MBB 231-3 Cellular Biology and Biochemistry
and one of
- CHEM 282-2 Organic Chemistry II
- CHEM 283-3 Organic Chemistry IIb
and one of
- MATH 152-3 Calculus II
- MATH 155-3 Calculus II for the Biological Sciences
and one of
- PHYS 102-3 Physics for the Life Sciences II
- PHYS 121-3 Optics, Electricity and Magnetism
- PHYS 126-3 Electricity, Magnetism and Light
- PHYS 141-4 Studio Physics - Optics, Electricity and Magnetism
Apply for admission as soon as the five required courses have been completed. Unsuccessful applicants may complete any of the 8 additional courses 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 eight 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.
Prerequisite and Required Course Grades
Students enrolling in BPK courses must have a grade of C- or better in prerequisite courses. Students enrolled in the biomedical physiology minor must have a grade of C- or better in all required courses.
Program Requirements
Lower Division Requirements
Students complete all of

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.
