Faculty of Science temporary changes in operations during current labour disruption


Listed below are temporary changes to operations in the Faculty of Science due to the CUPE 2424 strike action.

The CUPE 2424 strike action has required the Faculty of Science to cancel a number of the labs for its courses. Once the strike action has ended, the faculty will determine how lab marks will be adjusted and communicate this information to the corresponding students. No course will be cancelled due to the partial cancellation of its labs.

Please note that, with the exception of those listed on this site, all classes, labs and tutorials will continue as usual.

The Office of the Dean, Faculty of Science (3230 Herzberg Laboratories) will be open Monday to Friday from 10:00 a.m. and 12:00 noon and from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Science Stores will be open to Faculty and their Researcher Assistants from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m., Monday-Friday. ID is required for purchases and pickups. Science Stores will be closed Monday April 2.

This page will be updated as information becomes available.
