Do I still need Pure Math 30 (or equivalent) for Psychology now that it’s no longer required for admission?
Yes. Although as of Fall 2009, students can be admitted to Psychology without having completed Pure Math 30 (PM 30), PM 30 is a prerequisite for enrolling into Psyc 312 (Experimental Design and Quantitative Methods for Psychology) in Year 2. PM 30 is also a prerequisite for a number of Science Foundation courses which are required of students in the BSc program. In order to ensure degree completion within 4 years, it is essential that Psychology students who enter UofC without Pure Math 30 either: 1) complete the UPG 101 Math II course offered by UofC’s Continuing Education during Year 1 of their studies with a passing grade. Please see the Continuing Education website for course details and availability. Or, 2) write a Math Diagnostic Test and obtain a passing grade. For more information about the Diagnostic test or to sign up, please visit the Math department.
