Academic Advising and the BES Program

In addition to completing the credit requirements (as outlined below), all BES students must also develop and maintain a program plan (approved by the BES program adviser). This statement is intended to guide course selections, to outline future program objectives and to ensure that the courses chosen keep important options open to each student. The program plan also ensures that Specialized Honours students meet the requirements of their theme concentration and the credit requirements of the BES program.

Organized advising sessions in the required courses of the BES program assist students with the development of the program plan. At the end of ENVS 1200 6.0 in their first year of study, students write the first version of their program plan - a concise statement of their theme concentration. At the end of the second year, students write a more extensive statement of their educational objectives in ES/ENVS 2010 6.0. Advising for Specialized Honours students' final program plan, including their Senior Honours Work proposal, takes place in ES/ENVS 3011 3.0. The undergraduate program director, the BES program adviser, and each student's senior honours work supervisor approve both the final program plan and senior honours work proposal.

Students pursuing the 90-credit BES program will complete their final program plan in ES/ENVS 2010 6.0.
