Junior Courses

One full-course equivalent of English and/or Comparative Literature will normally constitute the prerequisite for 300-level English courses.

The following 300-level courses have no prerequisites: English 329, 385, 387, 389, 393, 395, 399.

Students may not receive credit for more than one full-course equivalent of 200-level English. The only exception is when English 240 is taken after another 200-level English course or courses, in which case the student may receive credit for up to two full-course equivalents in 200-level English.

English Composition (ENCO) courses do not count towards the major field in English.

Students with credit in senior English courses that have prerequisites may not normally take 200-level English courses, except English 240.

Students should note that English 240 is a required course in the Foundation Program for English Majors, Minors and Honours students and is felt by the Department to constitute the best foundation for concentrated work in senior courses in English and in interdisciplinary Humanities majors.

Foundation Program

English 240, English 302, and English 354 constitute the Foundation Program for English Majors, Minors and Honours students. Completion of the senior courses (English 302 and 354) of the Foundation Program is the standard prerequisite for 400-level courses. A student who has not completed English 302 and 354 will be admitted to a 400 or 500-level course if the Department judges the student's level of literary or other preparation sufficient for the demands of the course. English 240 should normally be taken within a student's first five full-course equivalents; English 302 and 354 should normally be taken within a student's first 10 full-course equivalents.

Creative Writing Concentration

The designation "Creative Writing Concentration" will appear on the transcripts of students who request this designation from the Undergraduate Programs Office and who have completed at least three full-course equivalents from English 364, 366, 494, 496, 598, Drama 371, 471, 572.01 or 572.29. For English Honours students, one FCE in creative writing must be met by English 504 with a creative writing project. (Admission into these creative writing courses is selective and is based on the submission of a portfolio of the student's work.)

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above.

A grade point average of at least 3.30 and Departmental recommendation will be required for students entering the Honours program.

The Department of Philosophy offers instruction in the Field of Philosophy only.

Advice and information about Philosophy courses and programs may be obtained from any member of the Department's Undergraduate Committee (the Department Office can arrange appointments). Detailed course descriptions for individual courses and, where appropriate, for the different sections of a single course, are available from the Department Office.

Double Major

Students may register as Majors in Philosophy and another field. It is essential that such students seek the advice of the departments concerned; students must also consult the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs) as soon as possible.

Those choosing Philosophy as their Major Field of concentration are reminded that an appropriate competence in the Field can only be the result of a suitable selection of courses within the major areas of Philosophy. In particular, the Department feels strongly that a student well trained in the Field should have a familiarity with contemporary analytical procedures, with the foundations of formal logic and with at least some of the major classical figures of Western Philosophy.

Students considering Philosophy as a possible Major Field are recommended to begin with Philosophy 201 or 249 or one of 301, 303, 305 (upper-year students).

Students majoring in Philosophy should ensure that they seek departmental advice before each registration. Since many philosophical problems have their origins in other non-philosophical disciplines, students should seek advice not only about which philosophy courses to take but also about which non-philosophy courses might most benefit them. Advice may be obtained from members of the Departmental Undergraduate Committee.

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above.

A major in Philosophy will consist of at least 8 full course equivalents and at most 10 full course equivalents in Philosophy. Except with the written permission of the Department, students majoring in Philosophy must fulfill the following requirements:

Note: Students are strongly encouraged to satisfy this requirement early in their program.

4. Metaphysics and Philosophy of Mind: At least one half-course equivalent of Philosophy 321, 381, 421, 481

5. At least four half-course equivalents in the History of Philosophy. The courses chosen must contain courses from at least three of the following groups:

8. At least two full-course equivalents of the eight full-course equivalents required for a Major must be completed at the 400 level or above.

No course may be used to fulfill more than one of the above requirements. Decimalized courses with different decimal suffixes count as different courses. With departmental approval, other (typically higher-level) courses dealing with similar topics may be substituted for those listed. It may not be possible to offer all of these courses every year, a fact students should bear in mind when planning their programs.

Should a student in consultation with the Undergraduate Advisor and with the formal approval of the Department determine an alternative set of required courses for a departmentally acceptable program in Philosophy, the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs) shall be so informed and completion of these courses shall be required for the granting of the degree. This determination, with all approvals, must be completed prior to the student's starting his/her 11th half course in the program (and by the preceding May 28, if the 11th half course is to be started in September).

Credit by Special Assessment

Students seeking credit by special assessment should consult the Department regarding courses available for credit in this manner.

Admission to the Honours program requires a grade point average of at least 3.30 and a recommendation to the Dean by the Department of Philosophy. Students considering Philosophy as a possible Major Field in an Honours program are recommended to begin with Philosophy 201 or 249 or one of 301, 303, 305 (upper-year students).

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above.

Students should note that no course may be used in fulfilling more than one of the above requirements. (Decimalized courses with different decimal suffixes count as different courses.)

In the final year of the Honours program the student must take Philosophy 590 (Honours Thesis). This will require the preparation of an Honours Thesis under close departmental supervision. In addition to the academic requirements, the Honours Thesis grade must be at least "A" or "A-" if the Department is to recommend the candidate for First Class Honours, and must be at least "B-" if the candidate is to be recommended for Honours.

The Honours Thesis, in suitable form, is to be submitted by the first day of the final examinations scheduled by the Registrar in the Winter Session.

A copy of the thesis, in a binding specified by the Department, is to be prepared for the Departmental Library.

Students should bear in mind the Faculty requirements concerning the general distribution of courses.

See "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above.

The study of Philosophy can deepen and enrich understanding of a variety of other disciplines.

An Honours program in History and Philosophy of Science is offered jointly by the Department of History and the Department of Philosophy. Students wishing to enrol in this program should consult the program advisor or a departmental undergraduate advisor.

Students may register for the Honours program in either the Faculty of Humanities or the Faculty of Social Sciences. The honours admission and graduation requirements are specified in the "Honours Degree with a Major Field" section of the Humanities and Social Sciences sections of this Calendar. In addition, students in the Honours program in Social Sciences must complete at least one half course in History. For the Honours program, courses constituting the field of History and Philosophy of Science include all those listed below under Requirements.

See also "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation" above.

Note: Students in the Faculty of Humanities may use courses in the major field to satisfy Faculty of Humanities breadth requirements (See Calendar section "Faculty Regulations - Graduation").

Students seeking admission to the program should note that although neither Pure Mathematics 30 nor 30-level science subjects are required for admission into the Faculty of Humanities, students are required to complete three full-course equivalents in a Science. Incoming students, therefore, should ensure that they have the appropriate high school 30/31 courses to support their intended science concentration.

At least 10 full-course equivalents in the major field are required for the Honours program. Students must satisfy the major requirements of the BA and must choose Philosophy 379 as an option under 4. above. In addition, honours students must take the following courses:

· Thesis: Philosophy 590 or History 598

· Directed reading: Philosophy 595 or History 596

· One additional 500-level course from areas 1., 2., or 4 (see majors requirements).

Science (at least three full-course equivalents): Students must take at least three full-course equivalents in Science, at least one full-course equivalent of which must be at the 400 level or above and one-half full-course equivalent at the 500 level. This requirement may be met either by taking the three full-course equivalents from courses in the Faculty of Science or from Area III courses in any one of Anthropology, Archeology, Geography or Psychology in the Faculty of Social Sciences.

Note: Some courses in Archaeology, Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Geography, Geology and Geophysics, and Psychology are restricted to majors in those programs or have other enrolment restrictions applied to them. History and Philosophy of Science majors wishing to take restricted courses in these programs may need to be registered in a combined degree with a major in the relevant program. Note also that in some programs, fulfilling all the prerequisites for some 400-level courses will require more than three full-course equivalents. Please consult this Calendar and Schedule of Classes for course prerequisites and restrictions.

Language (one full-course equivalent): Two half courses in any one second language.

At least five full-course equivalents in History and Philosophy of Science are required for a minor in History and Philosophy of Science, with the following restrictions:

· at least one full-course equivalent must be in History of Science (see area 1. majors requirements)

· at least one full-course equivalent must be in Philosophy of Science (see area 2. majors requirements)

· at least one half course must be at the 400 level or above.

The Minor in History and Philosophy of Science is aimed in the first instance at students in the Faculties of Science, Social Sciences and the Schulich School of Engineering who want to complement their disciplinary studies with the study of the historical and philosophical background and foundation of the sciences.

This program is offered jointly by the Departments of Philosophy and Religious Studies.

In the program of study that leads to the Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies and Applied Ethics, students learn to identify moral problems that arise in contemporary society and develop skills to evaluate responses. Students learn about religious worldviews that may inform moral decisions and develop sensitivity to cultural and religious contexts of ethical decision-making.

Students should contact the Undergraduate Advisors of the Religious Studies and Philosophy Departments for advice regarding courses in their major program.

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above. Students registered in this major may not register in a combined degree with either of Philosophy or Religious Studies.

Students are required to complete the following courses (with the approval of the relevant department, higher-level courses dealing with similar topics may be substituted for the required courses):

1. Religious Studies 201 or 273, 203 and 205.

2. Two senior-level half-course equivalents in Religious Studies, one from the Western and one from the Eastern stream. (See the Table of Streams located before the Religious Studies courses in the "Courses of Instruction" section of this Calendar.)

3. Religious Studies 331 and 343 (both from the Nature of Religion stream).

4. Religious Studies 377 and 577.

5. Philosophy 347, 349, and 449.

6. Two half-course equivalents selected from Philosophy 313, 319, 329, 337.

The Department of Religious Studies seeks to foster an understanding of the wide variety of religions that have influenced the development of human cultures and that continue to be powerful forces in today's world. Courses in the Department examine religious worldviews and their associated texts and practices, movements and institutions, as they appear now and as they have developed over time in many cultures of the world. The field of Religious Studies is multicultural, i.e., religions from all over the world are the subject of study, including the ancient traditions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as well as religious movements of more recent origin. Religious Studies is also multidisciplinary, which means that religion is studied with the use of methods and theories from various disciplines, including history, philosophy, sociology, psychology, literary theory, and feminist theory.

Courses in the Department are divided into three streams: Western Religions, Eastern Religions, and the Nature of Religion. The Table of Streams (located before the Religious Studies courses in the "Courses of Instruction" section of this Calendar) lists the course offerings of the Department according to stream.

Students considering Religious Studies as a major field are recommended to begin with Religious Studies 201 or 273, 203 and/or 205.

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and other requirements under "Faculty Regulations - Graduation," above.

A major requires completion of eight to ten full-course equivalents in Religious Studies which must include the following:

1. Two full-course equivalents from each of the three streams of study. (See the Table of Streams located before the Religious Studies courses in the Courses of Instruction section of this Calendar.)

2. At least two full-course equivalents at the 400 or 500 level, including at least one half course in the Western or Eastern stream.

3. Religious Studies 377, which does not count toward any stream.

4. Religious Studies 437 or 447, which counts as a course in the Nature of Religion stream.

5. Religious Studies 577: the topic chosen for the Senior Project will determine the stream in which this course will be counted in a student's program.

Religious Studies majors are required to declare one of the three streams of study as their area of concentration. A student may define a more narrow focus of study within a stream or thematically across streams. Majors are strongly advised to consult with the Department's Undergraduate Advisor sometime during or before their third year of study and to submit a written declaration of their research concentration within the field of Religious Studies. Options for concentration include one of the three streams or a focus within or across the streams.

Students are strongly advised to include in their programs relevant language courses (e.g., Classical Hebrew, Greek, Latin, Arabic, Sanskrit, Tibetan, Classical Chinese, Japanese, French, German) and relevant courses from other disciplines. Language courses related to a student's program of study in Religious Studies, whether taken inside or outside the Department, may be counted as part of the eight full-course equivalents in Religious Studies. Language courses from other departments must receive approval from the Department's Undergraduate Advisor to be counted toward the major field requirements.

Early in their programs, students should consult with the Undergraduate Advisor in the Department of Religious Studies for guidance in selecting both required Religious Studies courses and appropriate courses from other disciplines.

In planning their programs, students should bear in mind that language courses and some senior courses are not offered every year.

Students should be aware of Faculty requirements as well as Departmental requirements. See "Faculty Regulations - Graduation--BA with a Major Field," above.

Credit by Special Assessment

Students seeking credit by special assessment should consult the Department regarding courses available for credit in this manner.

Admission to the Honours program requires a grade point average of at least 3.30 and a recommendation to the Dean by the Department of Religious Studies.

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" and "Faculty Regulations - Graduation - Honours Degree with a Major Field - Admission," above.

Students wishing to enter the Honours program in Religious Studies should include Religious Studies 201 or 273, 203 and 205 early in their programs.

An Honours degree requires completion of ten to twelve full-course equivalents in Religious Studies, which must include the following:

1. Two full-course equivalents from each of the three streams of study. (See the Table of Streams located before the Religious Studies courses in the Courses of Instruction section of this Calendar.)

2. At least three full-course equivalents at the 400 or 500 level, including at least one half course in the Western or Eastern stream.

3. Religious Studies 377, which does not count toward any stream.

4. Religious Studies 437 or 447, which counts as a course in the Nature of Religion stream.

5. Religious Studies 590: the topic chosen for the Honours Thesis will determine the stream in which this course will be counted in a student's program.

Honours students in Religious Studies are required to declare one of the three streams of study as their area of concentration. A student may define a more narrow focus of study within a stream or thematically across streams. Honours students are strongly advised to consult with the Department's Undergraduate Advisor sometime during or before their third year of study and to submit a written declaration of their research concentration within the field of Religious Studies. Options for concentration include one of the three streams or a focus within or across the streams.

By the beginning of a student's final year in the Honours program, a reading knowledge of a language other than English relevant to the topic of the Honours Thesis is normally required. Students may fulfill this requirement by completing at least one full-course equivalent of a language other than English. Language courses related to a student's program of study in Religious Studies, whether taken inside or outside the Department, may be counted as part of the ten required full-course equivalents in Religious Studies. Language courses from other departments must receive approval from the Department's Undergraduate Advisor to be counted toward the major field requirements.

The Honours Thesis is written in Religious Studies 590, usually during the final year of a student's program, under the close supervision of a member of the Department. At the end of the year, the student defends the thesis before a committee that consists of three faculty members, of which normally at least two are members of the Department. A grade of at least "B" must be obtained on the Honours Thesis if the candidate is to be awarded the Honours Degree. The Honours Thesis grade must be at least "A" or "A-" for the Department to recommend the candidate for First Class Honours.

The Honours Thesis in suitable form is to be submitted by the first day of the final examinations scheduled by the Registrar in the Winter Session.

Early in their programs, students should consult with the Undergraduate Advisor in the Department of Religious Studies for guidance in selecting required Religious Studies courses, language courses, and appropriate courses from other disciplines. Relevant courses in allied fields such as Philosophy, History, Sociology, Anthropology, and Greek and Roman Studies are strongly recommended.

In planning their programs, students should bear in mind that some senior courses are not offered every year.

Students should be aware of Faculty requirements as well as Departmental requirements. See "Faculty Regulations - Graduation - Honours Degree with a Major Field," above.

The Minor requires a minimum of five full-course equivalents in Religious Studies with at least one full-course equivalent from each of the three streams.

See also "Minor Field Option" under "Faculty Regulations - Course Work," above.

This program is offered jointly by the Departments of Philosophy and Religious Studies. For details consult the program descriptions for the Department of Philosophy.

This program is offered jointly by the Departments of Greek and Roman Studies and Religious Studies. For details consult the program descriptions for the Department of Greek and Roman Studies.

The Faculty of Humanities offers a degree program with a Major in General Humanities.

The program is designed to provide students with the opportunity of a broad education in the Humanities. It may usefully be supplemented, by way of career preparation, with courses preparatory to application for admission to a professional Faculty (e.g., Medicine), or with an appropriate Minor (e.g., the Minor in Management and Society, or Law and Society). Advice on these and related matters may be obtained from the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs).

See "Faculty Regulations - Admissions" above.

Students intending to register in the BA program with Major in General Humanities must consult with the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs), Faculty of Humanities, for final approval of their selected program.

The program requires the completion of two core courses (Humanities 305 and 307); additional courses are selected from the course offerings of the various Departments within the Faculty.

The requirements for the BA program, Major in General Humanities, are as follows:

1. The general regulations of the Faculty with respect to all the BA programs with a Major Field apply (see "Faculty Regulations - Graduation" above), together with the following specific requirements.

2. All students must complete Humanities 305 and 307; this requirement should normally be met by the end of the third year of study.

3. In order to establish breadth in the Humanities, at least one full-course equivalent must be taken from each of the following areas of study: (i) English; (ii) Philosophy; (iii) a modern language or literature other than English; (iv) Greek and Roman Studies; (v) Religious Studies; (vi) Comparative Literature.

4. A minimum of one additional full-course equivalent must be chosen from each of two of the six subject areas specified in paragraph 3.

5. One full-course equivalent must be chosen, in consultation with the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs), from among the courses offered by the Department of History.

6. At least five full-course equivalents counting toward the Major field must be at the senior level. Students should refer to the chart in this Calendar for a list of senior courses in Humanities without prerequisites.

Language Requirement

A working knowledge is required of a language other than English. This requirement may be met in any language, ancient or modern, in which courses are offered by the Faculty of Humanities. The requirement may be met either by the successful completion of course work (e.g., the course requirement specified in 3 (iii) or (v) above), or by examination. Language competence is required at a level equivalent to the completion of a full senior course in the language in question.

The Minor is composed of at least five full-course equivalents of which three must be at the senior level.

Students intending to minor in Comparative Literature must consult with the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs), Faculty of Humanities for selection and approval of the courses appropriate to the Minor and to their interest and background.

The Minor is made up of the following components:

1. Comparative Literature 201 and 203 (to be completed as early as possible);

2. One full-course equivalent from the following list of relevant courses: Comparative Literature 405, 517, English 517, French 511, Philosophy 315;

3. A minimum of three full-course equivalents in Comparative Literature. Literature courses from other departments in the Faculty may be substituted for Comparative Literature courses with the approval of the program coordinator.

Note: Some of the courses relevant to the minor may have prerequisites.

Language Requirement

In addition to English, reading competence is required in another language. This requirement may be met by course work in an ancient or a modern language appropriate to the student's program or by examination. Language competence is required at a level equivalent to the completion of a full senior course in the language in question.

Courses used to fulfill the requirements of the Minor may not be used to fulfill requirements for a Major.

The Minor allows for the study of cultural phenomena in their social context and historical unfolding from late Antiquity to the Early Modern Era (e.g., literature, religion, philosophy, music, drama, and art). At the same time, it permits specialization in one specific phenomenon, era, culture or society. For example, specific courses may be combined to create a specialization in Renaissance Italy or Medieval Thought.

The Minor is intended to complement Major programs in related fields. It offers an integrated course of study which enhances the learning experience and promotes a cross-cultural understanding of a formative age in European civilization. Desirable for students contemplating graduate level work in related fields.

The Minor is composed of at least five full-course equivalents of which three must be at the senior level, to a maximum of six full-course equivalents.

Students intending to minor in Medieval, Renaissance and Reformation Studies must consult with the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs), Faculty of Humanities for selection and approval of the courses appropriate to the Minor.

The minimum requirements for the Minor program are:

1. One full-course equivalent each from three of the four Subject Areas listed below;

2. Two additional full-course equivalents from any single Subject Area or combination of two Areas listed below.

• Philosophy, Political Science and Religion (Departments of Philosophy, Political Science and Religious Studies): Course in the relevant period chosen from offerings of these Departments

Students are urged to take at least one course in History, and to gain proficiency in at least one ancient and a second modern language if they plan to proceed to graduate school.

Note: Some of the courses relevant to this Minor may have prerequisites.

Courses used to fulfill requirements for the Minor may not also be used to fulfill requirements for a Major.

(Return to Top)

In all cases, admission and graduation requirements for both faculties and major programs must be met with the following exceptions:

1. The number of junior courses taken must not exceed 9 full-course equivalents in total.

2. A maximum of 10 full-course equivalents may be taken at institutions other than the Áù¾ÅÉ«ÌÃ. A maximum of 4 full course equivalents of transfer credit can be used for each major.

3. Unless otherwise specified in the program details, courses in the Major Field must be distinct.

The program, sponsored jointly by the Faculties of Fine Arts and Humanities, leads to the BFA and BA degrees, or two BA degrees, and requires the completion of a minimum of 25 full‑course equivalents. Students pursuing this program may enter the combined degree program in year one in either faculty. At that time, the student will declare a Major Field within the Faculty of Humanities in addition to the Major within the Faculty of Fine Arts. All admission requirements for both Faculties must be satisfied in order to qualify for the combined degree program. Students may transfer a maximum of four full course-equivalents in the Major Field and a total maximum of ten full-course equivalents from other institutions. Program details are listed in the Faculty of Fine Arts section of this Calendar.

The combined BA (French)/BEd (Master of Teaching) program starts after Year 2 of the Faculty of Humanities French BA program and will last for three years.

The deadline for application for admission is April 1 of the academic year in which the student will have completed 10 full-course equivalents.

To be eligible for admission, a student must have met the following requirements by the time of admission (end of the Winter Session):

(a) A minimum of three and one half full-course equivalents of university-level French courses as required in the French BA in the Faculty of Humanities.

(b) Additional courses (sufficient to add up to 10 full-course equivalents) to meet the Faculty of Humanities requirements.

(c) The Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà Effective Writing Requirement.

(d) A Faculty of Education "Statement in Support of Application" which includes names of three referees.

Candidates for admission will require a GPA of at least 2.50 over the last five full-course equivalents taken and a GPA of at least 3.00 over all French courses taken (Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà courses and courses transferred from other institutions).

A maximum of 15 students will be accepted into the program in any one year. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission. Admission to the program is competitive based on the GPA over the last five full-course equivalents taken.

Program Structure

The program is divided into a French portion, which consists of seven and one half full-course equivalents plus courses required to fulfill the Faculty of Humanities Graduation Requirements, and an Education portion, which consists of 10 full-course equivalents. In Year 5 of the Combined Degree program, a required interdisciplinary project course in French will amalgamate the students' academic experience in French and Education.

At the time of admission, a joint committee in French and Education may stipulate special requirements related to linguistic proficiency for entering students. Students' progress throughout the program will be monitored by the joint committee. In order to continue into year 4, students must have completed the 15 full-course equivalents required for the initial French/Humanities portion of the program (see below) with a minimum GPA of 3.00 over the last ten half courses taken.

The five-year program leads to both the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Commerce degrees. The program requires careful selection of courses to complete all requirements of the two Faculties. Interested students are urged to contact the Associate Dean (Academic Programs and Student Affairs) of Humanities and the Assistant Dean (Undergraduate) of Haskayne School of Business for advice in choosing their first-year courses.

Students must satisfy the admission requirements of both Faculties. The BA in Humanities portion of the program requires that students complete the departmental requirements for the Humanities Major (either seven or eight full-course equivalents) and a minimum of eight and one-half full-course equivalents of courses from the Faculty of Humanities with a minimum GPA of 2.00. No more than one full "D" or "D+" grade may be counted towards the Major field. Students may transfer a maximum of four full-course equivalents in their major field and a total maximum of ten full-course equivalents from other institutions. Students pursuing this program may enter the combined degree program in year one in either faculty. Up to the end of year three, students may opt out of the combined degree program and complete the Humanities degree program in one additional year. Program details are listed in the Haskayne School of Business section of this Calendar.

The five year program leads to both the Bachelor of Science in Engineering and the Bachelor of Arts degrees. A Major in the Humanities consisting of seven full-course equivalents is required. All specific departmental requirements for the Major must be met. For those majors normally requiring eight full-course equivalents (Ancient and Medieval History, English, French, Greek and Roman Studies, Spanish) students in the combined program must consult with the department to determine which seven full-course equivalents they are required to complete. Majors are available in English, French, German, Greek and Roman Studies, Italian, Philosophy, Religious Studies, Russian and Spanish. Students planning a Humanities Major in French or German should present Grade XII standing in that subject area.

Students will enter the Schulich School of Engineering in year one and complete the two degrees under the jurisdiction of that faculty. They must satisfy the admission requirements of both Faculties. The BA in Humanities portion of the program requires that the students have a GPA of at least 2.00 in the Major Field and 2.00 in the entire programand not more than one full "D" or "D+" grade in these courses. Students may transfer a maximum of four full-course equivalents in their major field and a total maximum of ten full-course equivalents from other institutions. Up to the end of year two students may opt out of the combined degree program and complete the BA degree in Humanities in two additional years. Program details are listed in the Schulich School of Engineering section of this Calendar.
