NOTES
1. Enrolment in the Pharmacology Laboratory course, PCL
471Y, is limited.
2. The research project courses, PCL 472Y and PCL 474Y, require the prior consent of an approved
supervisor to supervise the project, and departmental approval before enrolment. Student
and supervisor must follow the departmental guidelines for evaluation. It is the student's
responsibility to initiate all necessary preparations before the session starts.
