Information Systems in Business Administration and Computing Science Joint Major

Bachelor of Business Administration or Bachelor of Science

This program is offered co-operatively by the Beedie School of Business and the School of Computing Science. In general, students are expected to meet the requirements of both the department and the School with respect to admission, continuation and graduation requirements.

Students may opt for a bachelor of science from the Faculty of Applied Sciences, or a bachelor of business administration from the Beedie School of Business. Faculty requirements will be governed by the faculty from which the student chooses to complete a degree.

Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Requirements

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS - BEEDIE SCHOOL OF BUSINESS

Joint major applicants should apply to Beedie through the internal transfer process, which is outlined here, after completing 30 units, including the lower division courses (except BUS 217W and BUS 254) and must either already be accepted to the computing science portion of the joint major or be eligible for admission that term.

Students not accepted upon initial application may reapply. Unsuccessful applicants are permitted to appeal.

Application Deadlines

Visit  for application deadlines.

Grade Requirements

In addition to normal university grade point average requirements, the Beedie School of Business requires a minimum 2.30 overall Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Business course grade point average for entry into all 300 and 400 division business administration courses.

A minimum 2.30 overall Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV Business course grade point average is required for graduation from a business major, joint major, or double degree program.

For a course to be accepted as fulfilling a prerequisite, or for a lower division requirement, or for a core course to be accepted in a student’s program in business administration, a student must have obtained a minimum grade of C- (C minus).

Letters of Permission

The Beedie School of Business does not normally approve letters of permission for students already enrolled at Ά‘ΟγΤ°AV.
