Combined Degrees
General Requirements
Students may elect to complete the Bachelor of Commerce degree in combination with another approved undergraduate degree. Five-year combined degree programs are sponsored jointly by the Haskayne School of Business and a second faculty, and lead to two Bachelors' degrees awarded at the same convocation ceremony. The program is comprised of a minimum of 25 full-course equivalents, including all requirements of the two Faculties. Students wishing to embark on the courses leading to a combined degree are strongly advised to enter the five year program directly in first year. The admission criteria that apply to the singular Bachelors' degrees apply equally to the direct entry combined degree program. Early contact with the Undergraduate Programs Offices of the two Faculties ensures that admission and graduation requirements are met in a reasonable timeframe and within the minimum 25 full-course equivalents. Students that are not admissible or defer entering the Haskayne School of Business directly may apply for combined degree admission in third year, upon successful completion of the twenty pre-commerce or twenty 1st Year and 2nd Year combined degree requirements (listed below). Fewer spaces exist for third year entrance into the business school however, and students are cautioned that admission is highly competitive and subject to the cut-off grade point average being met. Applications for admission to the business school in second year will not be considered. Students already admitted into the Bachelor of Commerce and interested in transferring to a combined degree program, are urged to consult advisors in both Faculties for admission and program details. For administrative purposes, combined degree students shall be registered under the Haskayne School of Business. Students may elect to remain in the combined degree or switch to either of the two separate degree programs, as long as the requirements of each Faculty continue to be met. Failure to meet requirements will result in a student being required to withdraw from the combined or separate programs, as the case may be. The following templates are provided to assist students in course planning. Any Bachelor of Commerce concentration may be chosen in combination with those majors listed below. Students interested in pursuing majors other than those listed, must seek approval of the Associate Deans of both Faculties. A detailed plan, outlining how the proposed combined degree is to be completed, must be presented at the meeting with the Associate Dean of the Haskayne School of Business. |
Combined BComm/BA (Humanities) Program
A major in the Humanities consisting of at least seven or eight full-course equivalents (depending on the major selected) is required.
