Integrated Business and Humanities Course Outlines

Course outlines are made available to students at the beginning of the course and are only kept on file for 10 years in the department once the course is administered.

Pre-Requisites

Make sure you pay attention to course pre-requisites. Also, when considering courses from other departments, read the notes at the beginning of that section of the calendar.

Course Load

In general, 30 units is a normal course load. It is important to balance your semesters so that you take 15 units in the Fall semester and 15 units in the Winter semester.

Full-Time vs. Part-Time

To be a full-time student, you need to take at least 9 units in each Fall/Winter term, but remember that you will still need to meet the specific requirements for each level of the program. Also, be aware of the requirements for programs such as the Dean’s Honour List and varsity sports.

Course Overload

In some cases, it may be possible to overload (take an extra course). If you have questions about this, please contact an Academic Advisor.
