(1) | General Information (See also §15.6.6)
 The Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences and the Faculty of Education offer a five-year integrated program of  150 leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Human Ecology and Bachelor of Education (Secondary). Students can do the Combined BSc in Human Ecology/BEd Degrees to teach in Career and Technology Studies (CTS) strands such as Fashion Studies, Career Transitions, Foods, Community Health, or other teachable majors as well as Career and Life Management (CALM). Students apply for admission to the Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences and are registered in that Faculty for the first three years of the program. All qualified Year 3 BSc in Human Ecology/BEd students will be promoted to Year 4 in the Faculty of Education provided that
a. | a minimum GPA of 2.0 has been achieved and
| b. | a minimum of 90 applicable to the BSc in Human Ecology/BEd program has been successfully completed.
|
Notes
(1) | Students in Year 3 who have completed less than 90 toward the BSc in Human Ecology/BEd program, but who have a GPA of at least 2.0, may remain in Year 3 of that program in the Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences for one additional year.
| (2) | A student who has been assigned a grade of “W” or “NC” in an Education Field Experience course is entitled to a second registration in this course. See also §22.1.3 Reregistration in Courses. Notwithstanding §22.1.3, students who receive a “W” or “NC” in the second attempt of a Field Experience course, will be required to withdraw from the combined degrees program, but may transfer back to the BSc in Human Ecology program.
| (3) | The final year of the program will normally be taken in attendance at the University of Alberta. Exemptions from this regulation can be made only with approval of the Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences and the Faculty of Education.

(2) | Required Courses
Courses for the Combined BSc in Human Ecology/BEd Degrees must be carefully sequenced throughout the five years; therefore, students should plan their programs carefully with help from Academic Advisors from both Faculties.
