Curriculum and Program Review Committee
Report to Academic Council at its meeting of November 21, 2006
For Action
1. Proposed Bachelor of Engineering and Management in Nuclear Engineering (School of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science)
The Curriculum and Program Review Committee recommends:
That Academic Council approve the proposed Bachelor of Engineering and Management (Nuclear Engineering), School of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science, as set out in Appendix A.
Rationale:
The proposed program follows on the same model as other Bachelor of Engineering and Management degrees approved in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Specifically, this program has the following strengths:
- It meets the needs of industry
- It provides a complete engineering program along with a specialized focus in business and management.
- It may provide one-year, or partial credit toward an MBA at UOIT (yet to be developed), or elsewhere. The business and management courses in the programs have been selected in collaboration with UOIT's Faculty of Business and Information Technology.
The proposal is attached as Appendix A.
