Academic Planning

Academic Affairs and Advising Support

Academic planning is vital to student success. Advisors are here to help as students begin to realize their goals and plan for the future.

College of Science and Engineering Advising Mission

We recognize academic advising to be critical to the educational experience and student success. We value academic advising as a shared responsibility with students. Advising serves to develop and enrich students' educational plans in ways that are consistent with their personal values, goals, and career paths, preparing them for a lifetime of learning in a global society.

Undergraduate Catalogue

The Undergraduate Catalogue is published online each academic year to include important information for students. Some of the information included is the requirements of all the majors, minors and certificate programs offered at the University, University Regulations, and the University Calendar. 

Archived catalogues can be accessed by selecting this option from the menu on the left hand side.  

Student's Catalogue Year: 

A student’s catalogue year is determined by their first term of enrollment at the university. A student will follow the requirements of University Studies, their major(s), and possible minor(s) or certificate program(s) that are stated in that catalogue. If a student changes their major or minor, they will still stay in the same catalogue and follow the requirements of the new major or minor listed there.

There are times when a student’s catalogue year needs change and if so, they must follow the requirements of University Studies and their chosen degree program as stated in the new catalogue. 

  • If a student wishes to pursue a new major, a new concentration within their current major, or a minor or certificate that does not exist under their current catalogue year, they must change to a newer catalogue year that includes the new program of study.
  • If a student leaves the university and re-enrolls, they can choose to come back under their current catalogue or a previous catalogue from a year in which they earned credit, as long as they can graduate within 6 years of that catalogue. Students should discuss the various options with their academic advisor.

University Regulations are Based on Current Catalogue: 

While a student follows the academic requirements of their catalogue year, all students are held to the University Regulations of the current academic year and catalogue.
