Program Model Route

The courses required for completion of your program are outlined in your model route. Every program has a set of courses that you are required to successfully complete in order to graduate from the program. Your model route shows the sequence of courses by semester that you are required to take, including experiential learning (e.g., work terms and field placements). Your model route also shows any pre-requisites and co-requisites. You will be expected to complete the courses and other requirements outlined in the model route that was in effect when you began your program unless there are program changes (program changes will be communicated to you).

All pharmacy lab courses (PHAR131, PHAR124, PHAR210, PHAR214, PHAR221 and PHAR222) will take place on campus in smaller class sizes. All other courses will remain online until we have permission from public health and Centennial College to fully return to campus.
