12. Major Courses
Honours BBA students must complete a major in a designated subject. A major is completed by achieving a cumulative average GPA of 3.0 for at least 24 ch of approved courses in the area of interest, with a minimum grade of C for any individual course. Students wishing to undertake a major must consult with advisers in the Faculty of Management and should note that some electives may not be available in a session. Courses entailing internship or independent study require prior approval and are subject to faculty and placement availability.
Students should note that at least half the credits counted towards a BBA Honours program must be from courses taken at the University of New Brunswick. Exceptions may be considered by the Dean of the Faculty of Management.
