Just one hour after course registration opened for incoming Brock University students in the early hours of Monday, July 13, more than 2,500 students had already finished mapping out their courses for the upcoming Fall and Winter Term.<\/p>\n
Registration, which opened last week for graduate and Teacher Education students, is continuing to roll out to students who can select from a menu of engaging and informative classes that will help shape their education and experience at Brock.<\/p>\n
A variety of resources and support, such as details on when and how to register for courses<\/a>, has been provided by various areas of the Brock community, including the Office of the Registrar, Information Technology Services and University Marketing and Communications to alleviate any barriers students may face during the process.<\/p>\n \u201cRegistration is always an exciting time for students and staff alike,\u201d said Sue Guenther, Associate Registrar, Enrolment Supports in the Office of the Registrar. \u201cFor students, it is the start of something new. For staff, it is the culmination of months of work from units all across campus.\u201d<\/p>\n Guenther notes that while the COVID-19 pandemic presented a series of challenges in developing this year\u2019s academic plan, her confidence in the University community\u2019s ability to work together to ensure incoming and returning students alike have a positive year at Brock never wavered.<\/p>\n \u201cThis year, we have had even more changes with the move to Fall being primarily online,\u201d she says. \u201cEveryone has readily adapted to the changes. I am always impressed by the Brock community\u2019s ability to collaborate to create the best experience possible.\u201d<\/p>\n Flexible options and resources were developed and curated to ensure students have access to not just the schedules they want, but the schedules they may need due to other commitments and priorities. This may include caring for children or other family members, work or the need to take classes in breaks as opposed to throughout the day or vice versa.<\/p>\n
