Sequence

Students enter the program with varying years of academic experience and as a result, will enrol in courses in accordance with their circumstances. For example, students could have completed a two or three-year college diploma, both of which will require that courses be completed in a different manner. Similarly, a student who begins the program in Year One will complete courses in a different pattern. The only necessary sequence will be to meet the prerequisite course requirements as stipulated in the calendar.

It is imperative for every student to meet with the program co-ordinator to determine the sequence of courses necessary to satisfy the degree requirements.
