Year 1:
BIOA01H (Introductory Biology: Part I)
BIOA01H (Introductory Biology: Part II)
CHMA10H (Introductory Chemistry I: Structure and Bonding)
CHMA11H (Introductory Chemistry II: Reactions and Mechanisms)
MATH requirement (a full course equivalent) - see program description in the academic calendar
Statistics or Computer Science requirement (0.5 course equivalent) see program description in the academic calendar
1.5 full credit equivalents - program options or electives from UTSC courses
Year 2:
BIOB10H (Cell Biology)
BIOB11H (Molecular Aspects of Cellular and Genetic Processes)
BIOB12H ( Cell and Molecular Biology laboratory)
BIOB50 Ecology
CHMB41H (Organic Chemistry I)

IMCB01 (Microbiology Basics*)
IMCB02 (Microbial Techniques*)
IMCB03 (Lab Instrumentation*)
0.5 full course equivalents-program options or electives
To complete this course cluster by the end of second year it is suggested that BIOB10/BIOB11 and/ or BIOB12 be taken in the summer following year one or alternatively in the summer of year 2 of studies
Year 3:
BIOC12H Biochemistry I: Proteins and Enzymes
BIOC15H Genetics
BIOC17H Microbiology: The Bacterial Cell
EESC30H Microbial Biogeochemistry
IMCB04 (Food Microbiology*)
IMCB05 (Microbiology Project I*)
STEB07 (Analytical Chemistry*)
IMCB06 (Pharmaceutical Microbiology*)
IMCB07 (Food Chemistry*)
IMCB08 (Biochemistry and Applications I*)
Some IMC courses listed above are offered in both winter and summer see table below. Students should confirm with Centennial/ UTSC future course offerings that these courses will be offered.

Some BIO courses listed above will be offered in the summer check course offerings. Some of these BIO courses could be completed in year four, however you must ensure you have the prerequisites for the advanced forth year courses that you will need to take in fourth year.
Year 4:
1 full course equivalent of advanced (forth year) courses see list of D-level courses that are acceptable in the calendar
IMCC01 (Microbiology Project II) - see table below for alternate availability in the summer of the third year of courses
IMCC02 (Microbiology Genetics)
ICMCC03 (Biochemistry and Applications II)
IMCC04 (Environmental Microbiology)
2 full credit courses: program options or electives for UTSC courses to fulfill 20 full course equivalents**
* A grade of at least 60% is required in the Centennial courses marked with an asterisk to maintain standing in the program.
** Students must complete the appropriate pre-requisites for courses chosen to fulfill electives.
*** Given the courses required for this program students are advised to plan their course sequence in detail once admitted to the program in consultation with the program supervisor.

The table below is the full list of UTSC COURSE CODES and CENTENNIAL CODES FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY COURSES required for the program and the term the courses are taught at Centennial.
