Faculty of Fine Arts students may also satisfy
the humanities general education requirement by taking either FA/FACS
1900 6.0 or FA/FACS 2900 6.0. However, if either course is counted
as a humanities course, it cannot also be counted in another category.
Non-Fine Arts Electives
In addition to the general education courses,
most fine arts students are required to complete additional courses
outside the fine arts disciplines. The number of non-fine arts electives
required varies according to the major and degree program. Courses
taken towards a major or a minor program in the Faculties of Arts,
Environmental Studies or Pure and Applied Science will satisfy this
requirement.
Fine Arts Electives
All students in a fine arts degree program or
an Honours Major/Minor program must complete at least 12 credits
in fine arts outside their major discipline. Courses completed as
part of a minor program in the Faculty of Fine Arts will satisfy
this requirement. Fine arts electives are not required in any Honours
Double Major program.
The following creative writing workshop courses
may be counted as either fine arts electives, or as non-fine arts
electives, but not as both:
- AS/HUMA 2900 9.0
- AS/EN 3240 6.0
- AS/HUMA 3640 6.0
- AS/HUMA 3645 6.0
