UofC " This Is Now

This combined degree program, administered by the Faculty of Fine Arts, leads to the BFA (Visual Studies) and BEd (Master of Teaching Program) degrees and requires the completion of a minimum of 25 full-course equivalents. Students pursuing this program will enter the Faculty of Fine Arts in Year One and then apply to enter the combined degree program after the successful completion of at least five full-course equivalents. After successful completion of all fifteen full-course equivalents specified in the Visual Studies component of the combined degree program, students will complete the two year BEd (Master of Teaching Program) which satisfies the present certificate requirements of the Province of Alberta.

All admission requirements for both Faculties must be satisfied in order to qualify for the combined degree program. Applicants must submit a Faculty of Education Statement form in support of the application (a structured resume which includes the names of three referees). Registration in the Faculty of Education must occur within three years of being admitted into the combined degree program and students must declare their intention to register in the Faculty of Education by the preceding March 15. All students must satisfy the Effective Writing Requirement.

Students choosing to leave the combined degree program before completion of both degrees would be considered to have left the Faculty of Education and would revert to enrolment in the Faculty of Fine Arts with all the degree requirements of that program.

Note:

Enrolment in both the Faculty of Fine Arts and the Faculty of Education is limited by Faculty and program quotas.
