六九色堂

Coordinated by the Faculty of Medicine and in cooperation with the Faculties of Science, Social Sciences, Humanities, and Kinesiology, the Faculty of Medicine offers an undergraduate degree in Health Sciences, the Bachelor of Health Sciences Honours (BHSc Honours), consisting of three majors. (Details on majors are given in Section V.) Because of the admissions standard and GPA requirements, it is expected that most students will attain Honours standing. However, those students who progress to the fourth year but do not attain a cumulative GPA of 3.30 over the last 30 half-course equivalents (HCE) will graduate with a BHSc. The BHSc Honours degree will normally take four years. ,. Students are selected through an admissions process and have direct entry into the first year. The deadline for receipt of the application package is April 1. Admission offers will be made by mid April.

A Health Sciences Minor is available in Health and Society. (Details are given in Section V.)

The Faculty of Medicine recently opened the doors to a new state-of-the-art facility for the BHSc program. The newly built O'Brien Centre for the Bachelor of Health Sciences features a bioinformatics area, small group classrooms and a wet laboratory facility, all designed to support the inquiry- and research-based learning the BHSc program promotes.

The BHSc Undergraduate Office and undergraduate departmental advisors in key participating departments and Faculties advise students. Inquiries related to Faculty Regulations (Section III), Admissions (Section IV) and course requirements (Section V) should be directed to the Faculty of Medicine BHSc Undergraduate Office.

Students in the Faculty of Medicine are governed by the regulations in this section of the Calendar as well as by the general University regulations in the section titled Academic Regulations. For the precise interpretation of any statement or regulation, students should feel free to contact the Associate Dean Undergraduate Science Education (USE) in the BHSc Undergraduate Office, Faculty of Medicine. The Associate Dean (USE) is responsible for all undergraduate BHSc student affairs in the Faculty.

Enrollment Limitations

Enrollment limits may be in effect for some courses in the Faculties of Medicine, Science, Social Sciences, and Humanities.

The following general requirements apply to all undergraduate bachelors programs in the Faculty of Medicine:

A. Degree Programs

In order to graduate a student must present an approved list of courses completed with passing grades. This list will be referred to as the major. The major must satisfy the following conditions:

(a) The major must contain at least 40 half-course equivalents (HCE) with at least 22 HCE numbered 300 or above.

(b) Only one HCE in the major may be graded a "D" or "D+."

(c) A minimum GPA of 3.60 over the last 30 HCE will be eligible for a First Class Honours designation. Refer to Section B "First Class Honours Requirements."

(d) A minimum GPA of 3.30 must be maintained over the last 30 HCE for an Honours designation.

(e) Please refer to "Student Standing" for a description of "satisfactory standing."

(f) No more than 10 HCE taken at other institutions and acceptable for transfer credit may be included in the degree.

(g) Candidates for Honours have a maximum of five years in which they are registered in courses to complete the required programs.

Note: These requirements may change with every Calendar issue. A given Calendar entry applies to the academic year beginning on July 1 and ending on the following June 30. The time of entry into a major in the Faculty of Medicine is defined as the first session after admission to the major during which a student successfully completes any courses applicable to the major. A student's major is subject to the course requirements that are in the Calendar current at the time of entry into the BHSc Honours, and a student is allowed five years counted from the time of entry into the major, to graduate under these requirements. Students who exceed the allotted time limit must consult with the Assistant Dean (USE), who will decide on an acceptable set of course requirements for graduation.

Note: A student who fails to maintain the necessary performance standards or who decides not to continue in the Honours degree may transfer to another Faculty program, subject to that program's admission requirements.

B. First Class Honours Requirements

In addition to the Honours' requirements, first class designation requires successful completion of a program major equivalent to 40 HCE with a GPA of at least 3.60 over the last 30 HCE. A student who has taken part of his/her course work at another university may be granted a degree with First Class Honours at the discretion of the Faculty.

C. Minor Programs

A Minor is available in Health and Society. The course requirements are listed in Section V (Program Details). The GPA over all courses counting towards the Minor must be at least 2.00.

A. Accuracy of Registration

Students are responsible for ensuring that their annual course selections are in accordance with all Calendar requirements, including the completion of prerequisite courses with a satisfactory grade and registration in corequisite courses as appropriate. Students are advised not to register in a course unless they have achieved a grade of at least "C-" in each prerequisite course. It is the responsibility of students to ensure that they meet all prerequisite requirements. A student who has received credit for a course without having the normal prerequisite course(s) may not subsequently register in the prerequisite course(s) for program credit. Taking or repeating a course that is a prerequisite for a higher level course after having completed the higher level course with a grade of "C-" or better will only be allowed with the permission of the Associate Dean (USE). Registration in any course(s) contrary to regulations may be cancelled by the Faculty after the beginning of classes. Registration must be appropriate to the major being followed. Students with inappropriate course selections may have their registration cancelled by the Associate Dean (USE). Students should seek advice from the Associate Dean (USE) or the staff of the Faculty Student Affairs Office.

Students are responsible for ensuring that they meet degree and program major requirements. Although the Program Office endeavours to assist all students as they proceed in the various majors, a final and thorough check is not done until application for graduation. Any departure from standard requirements must receive prior authorization in writing from the Associate Dean (USE). It is strongly recommended that students consult with the Associate Dean (USE) or the staff of the Faculty Student Affairs Office before submitting their final registration.

First-year students should obtain a copy of the Course Registration and Planning Guide from the Office of the Registrar.

B. Withdrawal from Courses

Students will not be permitted to withdraw more than once from a particular course. Students will be required to withdraw from the Faculty of Medicine if they have accumulated a total of more than five full-course equivalent withdrawals while in attendance at the 六九色堂. A student who wishes to withdraw from a course must do so before the deadline specified in the Academic Schedule.

C. Repetition of Courses

A student will be permitted to repeat a particular course only once. This regulation applies not only to individual courses but also to sets of courses where it is stated that credit for more than one of the sets is not allowed. A withdrawal counts as an attempt.

D. Opportunities to Take Courses at Another Institution for Transfer of Credit

Students may be authorized to take some program course work at another university if registration as a visiting student is acceptable to that university. Applications for such authorization must be made as early as possible in writing to the Associate Dean (USE) and must be accompanied by full details of the proposed courses and the total hours of instruction (machine copies of actual calendar descriptions are preferred). The student will be advised officially by letter of the acceptability of the proposed courses for transfer credit in the program and an appropriate letter will be sent to the Registrar at the other university. It will be the responsibility of the student to ensure that an official transcript of grades is forwarded directly to the Registrar of this University in order that appropriate credit may be officially recorded.

E. Credit in Courses by "Special Assessment"

Students who feel that they know the material covered in a certain course without having received formal University credit may apply for "special assessment" in the course. Students should obtain the form headed "Permission to Take Courses by Special Assessment" from the Office of the Registrar and submit their application to the Faculty offering the course. A course in which the student was previously registered may not be taken subsequently by special assessment, nor may any course be attempted more than once in this way. The Faculty will not allow more than five full-course equivalents completed by special assessment to count towards a degree. See also the general University regulations concerning special assessment.

A. Missed Components of Term Work

Any student who is absent from a test or fails to complete a laboratory assignment or similar work for legitimate reasons must discuss an alternative course of action with the instructor. The regulations covering such circumstances are outlined in the sections titled "Attendance" and Deferral of Work" in the Academic Regulations section of this Calendar. In such cases the instructor must be notified within 48 hours.

B. Deferral of Final Examination

See the general University regulations governing the deferral of final examinations. In order to apply for a deferral of a final examination, students must pick up an application form in the Office of the Registrar or download it from the Registrar's Website atand submit the completed form to the Associate Dean (USE). Students seeking a deferment of a final examination for medical reasons must submit a Physician/Counsellor Statement form, which they can obtain from the Office of the Registrar or download from the website. A medical certificate stating only that a student has been seen by a physician is insufficient. Misreading the examination timetable is not a valid reason for requesting a deferred final examination.

A. Performance Review, Probationary Status and Dismissal

The academic standing of each student registered in the Faculty will be reviewed annually following the Winter Session as per the GPA Requirements table.

End of Year 1

Year 2 and 3

Year 4 and Graduation

3.30 or above: admitted to Honours program

3.30 or above: satisfactory standing

3.30 or above: BHSc Honours degree

2.75 - 3.29: admitted to Honours program on probation (see Note 1)

2.75 - 3.29: probation (see Note 1)

2.00 - 3.29: BHSc degree

less than 2.75: required to withdraw from BHSc Honours

less than 2.75: required to withdraw

less than 2.00: no degree

Notes:

1. University regulations permit students to be on probation only once during their degree. Therefore, students whose first year has merited admission to Honours on probation will have to maintain a GPA of at least 3.30 in Years 2, 3, and 4 in order to continue in their chosen program.

2. At the time of graduation, students who have not achieved a GPA of 3.30 over the last 30 HCE will be awarded a BHSc (i.e., without Honours), provided that the minimum cumulative GPA attained is greater than or equal to 2.00.

3. Students not achieving Honours standing due to the failure to complete all required first year courses (see list below), must complete these required courses within their first 20 half-course equivalents (with a minimum GPA of 3.30) in order to be admitted into Honours and remain in the program. Exceptions may be granted, due to exceptional circumstances such as serious illness or disability, at the discretion of the Associate Dean (USE).

B. Dean's List

The Dean's List recognizes the outstanding academic achievement of students. To be included, a student must achieve a grade point average of at least 3.50 over all courses taken in the preceding Fall and Winter Sessions, with a minimum of ten HCE to be counted. A statement of inclusion on the Dean's List will be recorded on the student's transcript.

Admission to the Faculty involves at the same time admission to one of the three program majors. If the applicant is not admitted to the BHSc Honours the application will be reviewed for admission to alternative 六九色堂 degree programs designated by the applicant. Please see below regarding admission of transfer students into the second year of the BHSc Honours. If an application is unsuccessful, a new application must be submitted the following year.

Note: The projected enrollment for each major of the BHSc Honours is 25 students/major/year. Admission to these majors is based both on the admission requirements listed below and additional selection criteria in the appropriate major.

Admission to Year 1 is normally limited to those who meet the requirements set out below and have completed no more than two transferable half-course equivalents from a recognized post-secondary institution. Those with more than two HCE may be required to apply to Year 2.
