Updates to Winter 2021 Science Courses
All courses for every first-year Science student will be delivered online for Winter 2021. Due to the COVID-19 provincial lock-down, second, third and fourth year students who were expecting in-person labs, should check their McMaster e-mail for important winter announcements.
In response to the ongoing pandemic and the recent Provincial announcement regarding the minimum 28-day province-wide lockdown that began on December 26, we have made the difficult decision to replace the in-person labs with virtual labs for a number of courses (Medical Radiation Science courses will still run with planned in-person elements). Courses originally planned for virtual will continue as planned. Details regarding courses that have changed due to this announcement are listed below:
