2002-2003 Undergraduate Calendar

The BA honours in Workplace Health prepares students for careers as corporate or workplace health and wellness co-ordinators. Courses offered through the Faculties of Applied Health Sciences and Business provide a strong background in health, economics and human resource management.

The Workplace Health Co-op program combines academic and work terms over a four and one-half year period. Students spend two years in an academic setting, where they acquire the necessary background prior to taking the first work placement. In addition to the current fees for courses in academic study terms, Co-op students are assessed an annual administrative fee (see the Schedule of fees).

Admission to the Workplace Health Co-op program is on the basis of marks, a review of personal résumés and completion of the Workplace Health Co-op application form. The normal requirement for admission is a minimum 80 percent average on six OACs (or equivalent). As this is a limited enrolment program, admission is not guaranteed by attainment of the minimum requirement. The Co-op Programs Office and the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences will facilitate admission decisions.

Students admitted to the Workplace Health Co-op program must follow the Co-op program schedule. Failure to adhere to the schedule may result in removal from the Workplace Health Co-op program. Eligibility to continue is based on the student's major average and non-major average. A student with a minimum 70 percent major average and a minimum 60 percent non-major average will be permitted to continue. A student with a major average lower than 70 percent will not be permitted to continue in the Workplace Health Co-op program. If a student subsequently raises his/her major average to 70 percent, the student may be readmitted only if approved by the Co-op Admissions Committee.

The Workplace Health Co-op program designation will be awarded to those students who have honours standing and who have successfully completed a minimum of twelve months of Co-op work experience.
