Paul College of Business and Economics
The basic purpose of the undergraduate curricula in the Paul College is to combine the breadth of liberal education with professional training in the following fields:
|
Business Administration B.S. |
|
Economics B.A.; B.S. |
|
Hospitality Management B.S. |
To achieve this balance, undergraduates enrolled in the Whittemore School must take a substantial part of their course work in other colleges/schools in the University in order to fulfill the general education requirements. Beyond those requirements, students are encouraged to elect additional courses in the arts, the behavioral and social sciences, the humanities, mathematics, and the natural sciences. Students may also combine a major with a dual major in International Affairs. Consult an International Affairs (IA) adviser at June orientation regarding the dual major.
Choosing First-Semester Courses
In planning your first-semester schedule, you will need to
think and read carefully about both “major” and “non-major” courses/subject
areas. To become familiar with those courses required in your major, begin with
review of the current Undergraduate
Catalog. This will provide you with a program description of your major,
complete requirements, information about career options, special programs, and
graduate training opportunities. Next, see course descriptions for a specific
explanation of each course in your major. Remember that during your first year
you will normally select courses numbered at the 400 level only.
To choose nonmajor courses, you should think and read about other academic
subject areas that interest you, using the Discovery
Program (core university curriculum) requirements and the course descriptions
in the catalog. Choose six to eight Discovery courses that appeal to you for any of the
following reasons:
- You have studied the subject in high school and wish to pursue it in further depth;
- The course looks interesting;
- You wish to explore other majors, either for the purpose of adding a second major or for moving toward another major (should you change your mind about the program in which you are now enrolled);
- The course may be useful to you in complementing your primary academic focus.
At Orientation, you will work with an academic adviser to choose your Discovery courses from these six to eight courses. You will receive more information at Orientation. Since spaces are limited in certain major (core) courses and in English 401, you should be aware that you may not receive your first choice in these areas in the fall. The advisers in the Paul College will be able to give you updated information at Orientation about space availability and can help you choose alternatives as needed. Two required courses—English 401, and MATH 424A (calculus) or MATH 420 (finite mathematics)—must be taken the first year.
A normal course load is 16 credits, usually consisting of four 4-credit courses.
You need to print out your Paul College worksheet, prior to attending June Orientation.
For those taking, French or Spanish first semester, you must take the French and spanish placement test prior to your orientation session. your advisor will have your result at orientation.
