The Concurrent Bachelor of Science (Science, Technology, and Society)/Bachelor of Education Program is offered jointly over four years by the College of Engineering and Science and the College of Business Administration, Education and Law. The aim is to provide the opportunity and training to individuals who wish to teach science in schools at the intermediate and senior levels (Grade 7 to OAC).

Graduates of this program will receive two degrees and will acquire the necessary skills and knowledge for two teachable subjects and fulfill the requirements for certification by the Ontario College of Teachers. It offers students the opportunity to begin working towards teaching certification early in their academic careers. Students can choose a Life Sciences or a Physical Sciences stream in the B.Sc. (STS) program while concurrently studying education and doing practice teaching in schools. Practice teaching begins in year one of the program.

PRACTICE TEACHING

Directed observation and practice teaching will be arranged by the Faculty of Education to include practical experience in schools and programs applicable to the concentration for which the student is a candidate. Candidates in this program will practice teach from grade seven to OAC inclusive.

STANDING REQUIRED FOR
CONTINUATION

Students must comply with the general university regulations (see 2.5.19). In addition candidates who obtain a final grade of less than a C in (a) practice teaching, or (b) three or more Education courses in the program will not be recommended for certification. Candidates must complete all requirements of the Concurrent Program in four years, and may repeat only one education course for upgrading throughout the program, excluding 80 499.

GRADUATION

Graduates of the program will receive both the Bachelor of Science and the Bachelor of Education (General) degrees.

The Faculty of Education does not issue a teaching certificate. The Ontario Certificate of Qualification is issued by the Ontario College of Teachers upon recommendation of the Dean of the Faculty of Education. Only Canadian citizens qualify for this certificate. Under certain conditions, the Ontario College of Teachers may grant a non Canadian citizen a Interim Certificate of Qualification.

4.1.4 CONCURRENT BACHELOR OF SCIENCE (GENERAL SCIENCE) DEGREE / MEDICAL LABORATORY TECHNOLOGY DIPLOMA

The Concurrent Bachelor of Science (General Science) Degree/Medical Laboratory Diploma Program is offered jointly over four years by the College of Engineering and Science of the University and the Department of Health Sciences and Public Safety of St. Clair College. The aim is to provide the opportunity and training to individuals who wish to pursue a career in health care primarily in the area responsible for the quality of health care laboratory testing.

Graduates of this program will receive both a degree from the University and a diploma from St. Clair College. The program is coupled with a clinical internship in a hospital or private health care testing laboratory and graduates will acquire the necessary skills and knowledge to apply for national registration with the Canadian Society for Medical Laboratory Science (CSMLS). Students attend courses offered at either the University or St. Clair College and in some terms attend both institutions.

1) In addition to complying with the general university regulations (see 2.5.19) students must also maintain a program G.P.A. and a term G.P.A. of 2.00 or better in all courses taken at St. Clair College.

2) If a student has not met the minimum G.P.A. requirements at the end of any term, the student automatically will be placed on probation.

3) If at the end of the Winter term a student has not met the minimum G.P.A. requirements at the College, the student's record will be referred to the Academic Standing Committee for decision. An Academic Warning will be issued by St. Clair College if at the end of the semester 15% of the St. Clair College program credit hours have been failed.

(a) If the required degree G.P.A. at the University is between 4.0 and 4.9, or at the end of a semester, the St. Clair College program semester G.P.A. falls below 2.00, and if not more than 32% of the St. Clair College program credit hours have been failed, the student normally will be allowed to continue on probation until the next evaluation period.

By the subsequent evaluation period the required degree G.P.A. and the diploma program and term G.P.A. must be at least 5.0 and 2.00 respectively, or the student will be required to withdraw.

(b) If the degree G.P.A. at the University is below 4.0, or diploma program or term G.P.A. is below 2.00 for two consecutive semesters, or if the student has failed three or more diploma courses (or the same course twice), or more than 32% of diploma program hours, the student normally will be required to withdraw.

5) A student who has been required to withdraw from the Concurrent program may not apply for re admission to the Concurrent program, but may be permitted to transfer to an alternative degree program at the University, or a diploma program at St. Clair College with approval from the Executive Dean of the College of Engineering and Science and the Chair of Health Sciences and Public Safety at St. Clair College. However, in most cases a student who has been required to withdraw may not register in the College of Engineering and Science at the University for twelve months and may not apply for re admission to another program in the College of Engineering and Science at the University before the subsequent Summer term.

STANDING REQUIRED FOR
GRADUATION

In addition to complying with the general University regulations (see 2.5.20) students must obtain a diploma program and final term G.P.A. of 2.00 or better in St. Clair College courses.

PROGRAMS

In addition to the degree programs, the College offers combinations of course selections oriented towards students intending to enroll in professional schools such as medicine, dentistry, optometry, pharmacy etc.

All students intending to apply for admission to a professional school are advised to study carefully the requirements of the particular school(s) to which admission is sought because there is some variation, both with respect to choice of subjects and number of years of study required for entrance. Such students may obtain academic advice through Biological Sciences, Chemistry and Biochemistry, or the Office of the Executive Dean, as appropriate to the program in which they are registered.

Pre Teaching Program

Certificate of Qualification: General program students who contemplate registering in the Faculty of Education at the University of Windsor, or a comparable institution, should be aware that Certificates of Qualification are awarded in the Primary Junior (grades K 6 inclusive), Junior Intermediate (grades 4 10 inclusive), and Intermediate Senior (grades 7 to the O.A.C. inclusive) areas of concentration by the Ontario College of Teachers.

Those intending to teach at the Junior Intermediate level must successfully complete a minimum of six courses in a subject taught in secondary schools (see 5.2.3). The B.Sc. in General Science or Science, Technology and Society are recommended as they provide competence in two teachable subjects. A Concurrent B.Sc.(STS)/B.Ed. Program is also available (see 4.1.3).

Honours Specialist Qualification: By the proper choice of subjects, students completing certain honours programs with a B average may qualify for admission to courses leading to the Honours Specialist Qualifications at the Faculty of Education at this University, or other Ontario faculties or colleges of education. In order to acquire such qualification, a minimum of two years of successful teaching experience is necessary following the granting of the Ontario Certificate of Qualification.

Advising is available at the Faculty of Education.
