Executive Assistant to the Dean Fatima Noorbhai 905-688-5550, extension 3425 Scotiabank Hall 324 The Distinct and Diverse Communities program involves courses offered through Brock University, Sault College and an Anishinabek Educational Institute (AEI) in Ontario. This program combines a four-year degree at Brock with practical coursework and training in a number of applied social service settings at the college and the AEI. Students obtain both solid applied skills and a strong theoretical foundation in order to practice in social services in Ontario. The program leads to career opportunities in areas in the social services that are aimed at assisting members of various Aboriginal communities. At Brock, students complete an integrated series of courses from a wide variety of disciplines. Students spend one year at Sault College or the AEI completing a diploma program that offers them applied knowledge and skills development and training in areas within social services that are specific to Aboriginal communities both on- and off-reserve. Obtaining both an Honours BA or BA with Major and a college diploma would ordinarily involve six years of study, but this program combines the two in a single integrated package that can be completed in four years. Enrolment is limited. Students must consult with the academic adviser responsible for this program before enrolling in courses. All course choices must be approved by the Office of the Dean, Social Sciences. Courses must be shown by the student to have content relevant to Aboriginal communities before approval will be granted. Requirement for graduation with a BA (Honours) Distinct and Diverse Communities degree is a minimum 70 percent major average, a minimum 60 percent non-major average and a minimum 60 percent overall average. Requirement for graduation with a BA With Major Distinct and Diverse Communities degree is a minimum 60 percent major average and a minimum 60 percent overall average. Further details concerning the Distinct and Diverse Communities program are available from the Office of the Dean of Social Sciences. |
