Note: degree requirements (required for graduation) are not to be confused with admission requirements (required to apply into the COGS Program).
All degree requirements must be fulfilled for a COGS major to graduate. Once you have been admitted to a COGS major, your degree requirements will vary depending on your Faculty and specialization. Select the menu item to the left that corresponds to your specialization. The degree requirements listed here are taken from the UBC Academic Calendar.

To look up old degree requirements from past years, please visit the UBC Calendar Degree Archive. Note that COGS degree requirements are listed by Faculty, Department, then specialization (e.g. to look up Language stream requirements, look at the Faculty of Arts’ Linguistics section of the calendar archive).
