2020-2021 B.B.R.M.

Please Read Carefully!

Once a Schedule of Studies is published, the University does not go back and “fix it” when courses are deleted or changed. To help you keep track of what you need to graduate, changes to your Schedule of Studies are listed below. Some students find it useful to review these changes while viewing their My Progress on the Student Planning system through WebAdvisor. This way you can mark off what you have completed and what you still need to complete. Please note that substitutions won’t always show up on your My progress. If you find errors on My Progress, or if you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact your Program Counsellor.

Changes are listed for each major:

Changes for Environmental Management

ENVM 3500 has been deleted and replaced by ENVM 4500 starting Winter 2022. ENVM 4500 is still worth 1.00, but requires ENVS 2230 as a prerequisite. If you do not have ENVM 3500, you will take ENVM 4500. 

The line: "This major will require the completion of 20.00 credits: 12.00 from required courses, 6.00 from restricted electives, and 2.00 free electives. Of these credits, a minimum of 6.00 credits are required at the 3000 level or higher, of which at least 2.00 credits must be at the 4000 level." is incorrect.  It should read: "This major will require the completion of 20.00 credits: 11.50 from required courses, 6.50 from restricted electives, and 2.00 free electives. Of these credits, a minimum of 6.00 credits are required at the 3000 level or higher, of which at least 2.00 credits must be at the 4000 level."
