X--Degree Programs, Bachelor of Science in Technology [B.Sc.(Tech.)] |
The B.Sc.(Tech.) program was designed for students who do not intend to pursue post-graduate studies and are strongly focused on securing industrial employment that makes use of the knowledge acquired in their bachelors degree. This program provides students with the knowledge and skills deemed to be essential by employers and exemplifies the positive benefits of cooperation between colleges and universities. The program combines rigorous theory with practical applications.
For the B.Sc.(Tech.) degree the University offers an honours program requiring the equivalent of 8 semesters of successful full-time study. Two of the semesters will be located at Seneca College in Toronto. The program requires the completion of four co-op work-terms. Students are encouraged to study full-time and to follow the schedule of studies listed below. In the B.Sc.(Tech.) program, 2.50 credits per semester is the normal load for a regular full-time student.
Students are required to follow the pattern of study for one of the two majors offered (Applied Pharmaceutical Chemistry or Physics and Technology) and complete all of the required courses specified in the Schedule of Studies.
Courses marked with an asterisk (*) are taught by Seneca College. The course descriptions are in this calendar however detailed course profiles can be accessed through the Seneca College home page.
Students are advised to consult the University's regulations for continuation of study which are outlined in detail in Section VIII--Undergraduate Degree Regulations & Procedures. In addition to the University regulations, students will also be required to achieve a 70% cumulative average by the end of semester 2. Students will be evaluated after semester 2 and those students who have an average less than 70% but meet the Guelph continuation of study requirements will either be:
Students may wish to add a minor to their major. A minor is a group of courses which provides for exposure to and mastery of the fundamental principles of a subject. A minor consists of a minimum of 5.00 credits. It may also require certain specified courses. Given the intended technical training of this degree, students have very little flexibility in terms of electives. As such, students wishing to add a minor would be required to enrol in additional semesters of study. Students wishing to take a minor should consult with their program counsellor.
In order to qualify for graduation from the B.Sc.(Tech.) program, the student must have successfully completed all of the courses approved for the program, and receive a minimum grade of satisfactory for the co-op work reports and work performance evaluations.
