DATE: February 3, 1997
Dear Dr.Blacknian:
At its
January
22, 1997 meeting the DUCC of the Biological
Sciences Department, recognizing that the Aquaculture Program
no longer existed, and that the last aquaculture students had
completed the program, unanimously approved terminating the
Post Baccaluarate Program in Aquaculture. As the requisite
. ?
courses
are
no longer offered it would seem appropriate to
remove the references to it from the calendar.
The relevant passages are shaded on the attached pages.

Major Program
A major program provides a broad general education in several fields of
udy and some specialization in one field known as the major. Optional
programs, which include double majors or majors and minors, are possible.
General regulations are in Faculty of Science requirements for the BSc
najor). For specific course requirements, refer to the academic department
concerned. Students who do not wish to pursue any specialization may
undertake a Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) degree. Information on this
lter option may be found in the Faculty of Arts requirements.
Requirements for Major
'Students must complete 120 semester hours including the following.
• a minimum of 28 semester hours of upper division credit courses
numbered 300 and 400 as specified by the major program
• additional semester hours of upper division credit bringing the total to a
rn
?
of 44 semester hours of upper division credit
• a ?
'm of 12 semester hours in subjects taken outside the Faculty of
S(
excluding EDUC 401 to 407) including a minimum of 6
semester hours taken in the Faculty of Arts
• a grade point average of 2.00 in the upper division courses required in
the program
Additional requirements as specified by the major program and in the
Genera! Information
section of this Calendar may be required.
For students enrolled at the University beginning Fall 1991 or later
'upper division grade point average (GPA) and cumulative grade point
average (CGPA) as specified in the
Genera! Information
section of this
Calendar
For students enrolled at the University before Fall 1991
'a graduation GPA of 2.00 calculated on the required 120 semester hours,
or on the last 60 semester hours taken including the 44 semester hours of
upper division credit
a GPA of 2.00 in the upper division courses required in the program
Dnors Program
honors program provides a broad general education with "in depth"
dy in a single field and requires the student to concentrate his/her
dies in the 5th to 8th levels in the chosen field. This program is
ommended for students who intend to proceed to advanced degrees,
)vided that they meet the entrance requirements and maintain the
wired standing.
idents applying for admission to an honors program will normally have a
mulative grade point average of 3.00 (B standing). A student is expected
maintain this standard to continue in the honors program.
Requirements for Honors and Honors First Class
'Students must complete 132 semester hours of credit as prescribed by
the
?
rs program which include the following.
"a_____ m of 48 hours of upper division credit in one subject area
• aWdI semester hours of upper division credit bringing the total to a
mis... um of 60 semester hours of upper division credit
• a minimum of 12 semester hours in subjects taken outside the Faculty of
Science (excluding EDUC 401 to 407) including a minimum of six
semester hours taken in the Facult y of Arts
IScience 157
• additional requirements as specified by the honors program and in the
Genera! Information
section of this Calendar.
Program Guidelines
• At the outset, students are requested to indicate their intended major so
as to facilitate counselling.
• Students who have not determined a major or intend to transfer to a
professional school (i.e., Medicine, Dentistry, etc.) should seek advice
from the Academic Resource Office or the Office of the Dean of Science.
• Declaration of major or honors must be officially accepted by that
department, prior to the completion of 60 credit hours.
• New students intending to take more than 15 semester hours in their first
semester of studies should seek advice from the Academic Resource
Office, the Office of the Dean of Science or their major department.
• Normally, the graduation requirements, as published in the Calendar at
the time of formal declaration of major or honors, will apply.
• in any combination of science programs (honors/minor, major/major,
major/minor: minor/minor) the student may not use the same upper
division course for formal credits towards both programs. One course
might fulfill "content" requirements of two related areas, but in such a case
additional replacement credits in upper division work satisfactory to one of
the departments or program committees must be taken in one of the
subjects to fulfill overall credit for the two programs involved.
• Programs totalling more than 18 hours of credit per semester require the
approval of the Dean.
Minor Programs
Consult advisors in appropriate departments when deciding on course
selection. Suggested programs and prerequisites are given in each
department's Calendar entry. An average grade of at least 2.00 is required
in those upper division courses used to satisfy the requirements for a minor
General Science Program
This program, consisting of 120 credit hours, provides a broad general
education in several fields with some specialization in at least two fields. It
requires two minors, one of which must be chosen from within the Faculty of
Science. The groupings of courses from which the two minors can be
chosen are given under the
Genera! Science Program
section in the
Calendar, along with the general course requirements for this degree. It
should be noted that all lower division requirements for the two chosen
minors must also be completed.
