Comments

  • The BTM is quite a flexible degree, drawing or allowing courses from many different areas.
  • There is no major option/block (as we currently show in the wire frames), but despite this it is one of the longest degree description yet!
  • Some ambiguity between what subjects may contribute to Part B 90 points. Have I represented it correctly?
  • The requirements are a (strange) mix of courses and points.

Tool tips

Thoughts and questions

  • Calendar lists INFO 321 as a Part 2 (ii) course option, but the BCom schedule doesn't list it. I guess it is no longer offerred? Can we drop it from this requirement?
  • I have reworded the 90 points (Part 3) considerably to make it work in this format and to read better. Is it still accurate?
    • What is the intent/outcome you can from the external (to BTM and BCom) subjects? Seems unclear to me.
    • Further, the "at least 90" might actually be "at least 85" if PUBL 201 (or 207) were taken in Part 2 (ii), as it is 20 points.Māori Studies, New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) Studies, Pacific Studies, Political Science, Psychology, Samoan Studies / Fa'asamoa and Spanish or other approved complementary subjects.
    • Of the 90 points at least 15 points must be at 200 and and 300 level.
