FIRST YEAR PLANNING
As a first year student at the University of Manitoba you are taking the first steps toward a new experience.
You will make decisions about your course selections, your choice of faculty, learn about career options,
and experience a wealth of extra-curricular activities to help you gain skills outside of the classroom.
You will meet new people, do new things, and learn about yourself.
With so many choices, mapping out your path requires a little guidance – and that’s why we are here.
The Academic Advising team in the University 1 First Year Centre offers academic advising and student
success resources to all first year students. We work with all faculties and schools across campus to provide
each first year student with the right advice and support for their first year.
One of the first steps along your path is to make decisions about your destination and how you want
to get there. This means knowing what areas you wish to study and the courses needed for the first year
in one or more degree programs at the University of Manitoba.
So let’s get started by looking at where you can get the information you need to begin planning.
STEP 1: USE THE RESOURCES
EXPLORE YOUR OPTIONS
The starting point in defining your future begins with setting the direction you want to head toward,
so begin by exploring your faculty and/or career options.
Keep in mind that deciding on your future takes time, and you should not feel pressured to select just
one faculty or one career path. Even if you know the exact degree you want to pursue, you will benefit
from some research to explore options and opportunities. Your first year should be a time for you
to discover what you want from your university education.
THE START BOOK
This Start Book is designed to guide you through the process of course selection and registration
so that you are enrolled as early as possible in the right courses, and ready to begin your studies on the
first day of classes.
In this book, each degree program is introduced with basic information on the first year courses to be
completed in Year 1 using three different approaches to your course selection. Read more about these
approaches to studying in Step 2: Select Your Courses.
U OF M WEBSITES
Before you commit to a direction, find out as much as you can about your target faculties and schools.
The more information you have about a given field, the better and easier it is to make a choice in which
you are confident. Your interests in various degree programs can help influence your elective choices
by selecting courses that are offered by your desired faculty or school.
Use the faculty and school websites at umanitoba.ca/faculties to find out more information about
each degree program of interest. Review the University 1 and your intended faculty or school websites
regularly as news, information, and events are constantly updated.
Additionally, investigate the various fields within your area of interest and take a look at future job
prospects and working conditions. You can visit the U of M’s Student Counselling and Career Centre
at 474 University Centre or online at umanitoba.ca/student/counselling for information and
assistance with career exploration.
Lastly, familiarize yourself with the Applicant Information Bulletins of your intended faculty or school.
The Applicant Information Bulletins outline the admission regulations and procedures, Grade Point
Average (GPA) calculations for admission, as well as provide information related to specialized entrance
requirements for each of the U of M’s degree programs.
See the Applicant Information Bulletins at umanitoba.ca/admissions/application
3
ACADEMIC CALENDAR
Once you have an idea of where you want to go, read the program entries that interest you in the Academic
Calendar. The Academic Calendar is the University of Manitoba’s official publication containing course descriptions,
program and graduation requirements, as well as university and faculty/school specific rules, regulations, and policies.
As a first year student it is important that you are aware of the Academic Calendar. Reference it when
planning for and making decisions about your course selection and the number of courses you take each
year. It is your tool for guiding and informing you of your degree requirements.
The Academic Calendar also provides the list of Recommended Introductory Courses to help you select courses
that are approved for credit in all degree programs (except where noted) and are taught at a level that is
appropriate for first year study. You will use this list when selecting courses to fulfill elective requirements.
The Academic Calendar can be found online at umanitoba.ca/calendar
ONLINE REGISTRATION TUTORIALS
The Online Registration Tutorials introduce you to Aurora Student – the University of Manitoba’s registration
system – and demonstrate how to use the system and its functions to complete your registration.
There are several tutorials, each a few minutes in length, which specifically explain how to log in to the
system, how to look up course descriptions and class time offerings, how to register, and how to view
your fees, booklists, and grades.
You must view the tutorials prior to registration to ensure that you understand the process of registration
and are able to use the system on your registration day.
View the Online Registration Tutorials at umanitoba.ca/registrar/tutorial
Talk to your advisor
for guidance on which
approach is right for you.

STEP 2: SELECT YOUR COURSES
The Start Book contains the best advice for selecting courses to meet your academic needs and career
goals. Be sure to consult the Academic Calendar and each faculty or school’s Applicant Information
Bulletins from the Admissions Office for additional information on program requirements and admission
requirements and procedures.
HOW TO READ THE START BOOK PAGES:
Each faculty or school page includes a course selection chart or advice about the requirements of the
degree programs. The course selection charts on each page display the following three approaches
to course selection:
The Focused Approach:
Lists the courses required to complete the entire first year of the degree program for both University 1
and Direct Entry students. It normally includes 30 credit hours of courses, which is the usual maximum
number of credit hours permitted in your first year.
The Balanced Approach:
Lists the courses required to meet the minimum requirements for admission from University 1. If you want
to balance the admission requirements to more than one target faculty or school, combine the courses
listed in each program’s Balanced Approach into a single first year plan of study.
You can also follow this approach if you want to take a lighter course load in your first year.
The Sampling Approach:
Lists the courses that will give you a good introduction to the faculty, school, or program in which they
are offered, or that is needed to develop essential skills for further study.
Also included in most of the charts is the requirement to choose electives. Most programs have a certain number
of credit hours that you are free to choose as you see fit; these are called electives. An elective may be any course
from the list of Recommended Introductory Courses.
The list of Recommended Introductory Courses compiles all courses deemed to be taught at an appropriate
level for a first year student and are acceptable for credit in all degree programs (except where noted).
This list includes over 200 courses from various faculties and schools. Use this list to help you select your elective
choices; it can be found at umanitoba.ca/u1. You may also be permitted to take other courses that are offered
but do not appear on this list with the permission of the teaching faculty or school. Ask your Academic Advisor
for more information.
Note: A glossary of definitions and terms used in the faculty and school pages can be found on page 70.
TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES
Each faculty or school section includes information about registration tips and course selection advice to help
guide your choices under the Tips for Choosing Courses. Also included in this section is information specific
to Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) courses.
If you completed AP or IB courses in high school, wrote the exams and attained the minimum score, you
may be eligible for transfer credit to reduce your first year course load. See the Admissions Office website at
umanitoba.ca/admissions for course equivalency and minimum grade requirements.
HIGH SCHOOL PREREQUISITES FOR UNIVERSITY LEVEL COURSES:
This section of the faculty and school pages list the high school courses that you need as prerequisites
for certain university courses. If you are missing one or more of the high school prerequisites, you may
be able to upgrade your standing to meet the prerequisite requirements by taking preparatory university
level courses. See page 68 for a list of preparatory courses available at the University of Manitoba.
5
ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS FROM UNIVERSITY 1:
The following requirements are for students who are using University 1 to complete their first year.
Minimum credit hours: The minimum number of credit hours needed for admission.
Minimum course load: This will indicate if full-time study or full course loads are required, or if part-time study
is permitted during the Fall and Winter Terms. Also listed here is information on whether you can finish your
required courses in Summer Session and still qualify for admission in the same year.
Minimum GPA: The minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) needed for admission to a faculty or school from
University 1, with information on minimum grades required in each course where appropriate. Please note
that admission GPA calculations are adjusted GPAs and may differ from institutional GPAs.
Refer to the Applicant Information Bulletins for information about the process used to calculate admission
grades, categories of students admitted to each degree program, as well as other admission or entrance
requirements such as testing, interviews, or vaccinations that are required in specific faculties and schools.
Applicant Information Bulletins are available from the Admissions Office at 424 University Centre
or online at umanitoba.ca/admissions
Additional requirements: Lists if there are other requirements for admission, such as an interview, entrance
examination, CPR certification, Child Abuse Registry clearance, vaccinations, etc.
Selection criteria: Outlines the basis of admission decisions to the faculty or school.
Minimum time to graduation: The least amount of time it takes to finish the degree program, provided you
successfully complete the maximum number of credit hours each year and follow the degree requirements.
The total credit hours for completion of each degree in its entirety is noted as well.

STEP 3: CREATE A TIMETABLE
After you decide what courses you want to take, you will need to create a timetable. Planning a timetable
is about choice. You can choose a variety of times in which to schedule your classes, from morning to afternoon,
and in some cases even evening classes. There is no set schedule to follow – you must make decisions
in a way that best suits you. Creating your own timetable gives you the flexibility to plan your courses around
your lifestyle and commitments.
Start by finding out when classes are offered; to do this you will need to use Aurora Student. The Online Registration
Tutorials are designed to help you use Aurora Student, and the following tutorials will get you started:
•Getting Started with Aurora Student
•How to use the course catalog and class schedule
•Looking up classes
•Understanding class search results
Go to umanitoba.ca/registrar/tutorial to begin the tutorials now.
After viewing the tutorials and looking up class offerings, you will be able to begin building your timetable.
Courses are offered in two different terms during the Regular Session:
•Fall Term, running from September to December
•Winter Term, running from January to April
Summer Session is also offered with courses running throughout May to August.
EXAMPLE TIMETABLE PLANNING FORM
In the Regular Session, classes are offered
throughout the week in various lecture and
lab time periods. Lecture periods are usually 3
hours a week in one of the following formats:
•Mondays/Wednesdays/Fridays (MWF) 50 minutes classes with a 10 minute break
in between class times
•Tuesdays/Thursdays (TR) - 75 minutes
classes with a 15 minute break in between
class times
•One evening a week for all are three hours
(i.e. 7–10 pm)
•Lab periods are held once a week for one
to three hour time periods.

Learn how to use the Aurora Student Registration System quickly and easily by completing the tutorials;
they show you how to login, search for courses, and register online.
The tutorials are available at umanitoba.ca/registrar/tutorial
2. Determine your Initial Registration Time
Initial Registration Times for new students are between July 15 and 19, 2013.
Log onto Aurora Student between July 8 and 12 to determine when you have been assigned your Initial
Registration Time. In Aurora Student, select ‘Enrolment and Academic Records’, then ‘Registration’, then click
on ’Registration Time & Status’.
3. Register for classes using Aurora Student
Your Initial Registration Time is your first opportunity to enroll in courses. Registering during this time
for both Fall and Winter Term will ensure the best course availability and selection.
4. Registration Revision Period
After you have registered, you can make revisions to your schedule any time up to the end of the
Registration Revision Period:
•The Fall Term and Fall/Winter Term Revision Period is September 5–18, 2013
•The Winter Term Revision Period is January 6–17, 2014
Adding or withdrawing from courses during this time will not incur any academic penalty. If you drop any courses
during the Revision Period they will not show up on your record. If you add courses during the Revision Period,
your fees are due immediately.
After each term’s Registration Revision Period has ended, your registration is considered final and only Voluntary
Withdrawals are available. For more information on Voluntary Withdrawals, please see umanitoba.ca/u1
5. Check your fees
Once you have finished registering for courses, check Aurora Student for a fee balance. Look for your account
summary under ‘Enrolment and Academic Records’ in August.
Pay your fees by 4:30 pm on September 4, 2013, for Fall Term and by 4:30 pm on January 7, 2014, for Winter Term.
Refer to the Registrar’s Office website at umanitoba.ca/registrar/fees and/or the Financial Services website at
umanitoba.ca/feepayment for information on fees and how to pay.
Remember to withdraw from courses you do not plan to attend. Non-payment of tuition fees for registered courses
will not result in academic withdrawal. Students are responsible for any outstanding balances, and unpaid fees
may result in holds, penalties, failing grades, and possible deregistration from courses in future terms.
6. Get a book list
A book list for all the courses you are registered in will be available through your Aurora Student account
in August.

THE UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES OFFERED IN THE FACULTY OF ARTS INCLUDE THE B.A. GENERAL,
THE B.A. ADVANCED, THE B.A. HONOURS AND THE B.A. INTEGRATED STUDIES. The Faculty of Arts is
comprised of 15 departments in the Humanities, Social Sciences and Interdisciplinary Studies. The degree
programs offered provide you with a liberal education and prepare you for a future career.
Special Study Features: The Faculty of Arts recognizes the value that international experience brings to
your degree program and will grant university credit for a number of different types of programs abroad.
You can partake in exchange programs, travel study courses and field study courses in over 18 countries
that provide you with hands-on experience, travel and even work abroad.
DEGREES OFFERED IN THE FACULTY OF ARTS:
B.A. General: A 90 credit hour degree which provides a general education in the Humanities and Social Sciences
with a concentration in at least two subject areas (the Major and Minor or a Double Major with no Minor). Choose
the B.A. General if you need a degree as an employment requirement, or if you plan to enter an academic program
that requires a three year degree, such as Education, Occupational Therapy or Medicine.
B.A. Advanced: A 120 credit hour degree which provides a general education in the Humanities and Social Sciences
with a concentration in at least two subject areas (the Major and Minor or a Double Major with no Minor).
The Advanced degree differs from the General degree by requiring more courses in the Major field of study
– giving a greater degree of specialization. Choose the B.A. Advanced if you want to develop a degree of
specialization in one area of study, or if you plan to enter an academic program that requires a four year degree.
Graduates of the B.A. Advanced degree who demonstrate a high level of academic performance may be eligible for
admission to graduate programs.
B.A. Honours: The Honours degree ranging from 108 to 120 credit hours, provides a rigorous examination of
a particular subject area. It differs from the B.A. Advanced degree by requiring more courses in the Honours
field and by providing a greater intensity and depth of study. A Minor is optional in this program. Choose the
B.A. Honours if you plan on continuing your education at the graduate level. Double Honours programs are
available in some areas. See the Academic Calendar for details.
Note: The Advanced and Honours programs have admission requirements that differ from the General Degree
requirements (see page 17). It is possible to enter the Advanced or Honours program upon completion of Year 2 or 3
if you do not meet these requirements at the end of your first year.
B.A. Integrated Studies: A 90 credit hour degree which provides a general education that includes 21 credit
hours of required or foundation courses and 18 credit hours in an area of concentration. In this program, areas
of concentration are all Minor programs offered by the Faculty of Arts and other faculties and schools as well
as some areas not considered Minors. Choose the B.A. Integrated Studies degree if you are a working adult who
has completed some post-secondary education and would like to complete an undergraduate degree.
The academic advisors helped to prepare me for my first year of university by
helping me set academic goals. I am proud that I was able to navigate all the
new experiences that come with university life, including being organized and
independent enough to ensure my academic and social goals were met.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS FROM UNIVERSITY 1:
Admission to the Faculty of Arts is an automatic process, referred to as a ‘transit’, and therefore does not require
an application process for admission to the faculty. Once you have completed 24–30 credit hours of course work you
are eligible to transit to the B.A. General degree. To be eligible for the B.A. Advanced and Honours degree you must satisfy the
specific course requirements for each program listed on page 17.
If you enter the Faculty of Arts under the B.A. General program you can always complete the specific requirements for the
Advanced or Honours program following your transit to the Faculty of Arts and apply to the Honours or Advanced degree
program in third year. In most cases, this can be done without additional years of study.
TIPS FOR CHOOSING COURSES:
•Choose your W and M requirements from the list of
Recommended Introductory Courses at umanitoba.ca/u1
•It is possible to satisfy the W requirement when you complete
the Humanities requirement.
•It is possible to satisfy the M requirement when you complete
the Science requirement.
•Your Humanities, Social Sciences and Sciences selections
can also be used to fulfill the five subject field requirements.
E.g. PSYC 1200 is 6 credit hours of Social Sciences or
ENGL 1200 is 6 credit hours of Humanities and satisfies
the W requirement.
•Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate
(IB) credit may be used to reduce the first year course load
and as a prerequisite to 2000 level courses.
•An Inter-faculty Option in Aging is available to students
in this faculty. See page 67 for more information.
•Students interested in the B.A. Integrated Studies Degree
should contact an Academic Advisor in the Faculty of Arts
for assistance with program planning.
You really have to watch your deadlines; no one is looking out for you.
In fact, in some cases they are competing against you. Also, talking
to an advisor can really help you, even if you don’t think you need help.

If I could go back and give myself some advice, it would be that I shouldn’t
have been shy as a U1 student. There are hundreds of students in U1 that are
going through the exact same things and there are many second or third year

LAW
THE FACULTY OF LAW OFFERS A BACHELOR OF LAWS JURIS DOCTOR (J.D.) DEGREE THROUGH A DYNAMIC
AND INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO THE STUDY OF LAW. The Faculty of Law is nationally recognized
for excellence and leadership in areas of teaching and research, and many graduates of the degree program
go on to pursue illustrious careers in law and politics.
Special Study Features: There are numerous opportunities for you to put the skills and knowledge you learn
in the classroom into practical action through involvement in a range of clinical programs. While in the program,
you will participate in moot courts (fictitious trials) and appeals, work in legal clinics and represent real clients,
and shadow judges in their courtrooms and chambers. In addition, you will also have the opportunity
to compete in national and international advocacy and negotiation competitions.
CHOOSE THE FOLLOWING COURSES FOR YOUR FIRST YEAR:
Eligibility for admission into Law requires a minimum of 60 credit hours of university degree level study,
however the majority of students have a degree. In most cases you will complete your first 30 credit hours
in University 1 and then continue your studies in another faculty such as Arts or Science.
There are no prerequisites or preferred courses for admission to Law. However, admission is very competitive,
so try to choose courses in which you are interested and will be motivated to study and perform well. We strongly
recommend that you register (if possible) for courses that have a writing component. This will help you to develop
writing and research skills at the post-secondary level.
In choosing your University 1 courses, consider which faculty you may want to enter in Year 2. As many students
complete a first degree prior to their admission into law school, it is a good idea to keep the degree requirements
of your second year faculty in mind when choosing courses.
Focused Approach
Choose 30 credit hours of electives.
Balanced Approach
Choose a selection of courses from two or more degree programs.
Sampling Approach
Choose a selection of courses from any number of degree programs.

I wish I knew more about balancing my time during my first months
at the university. Poor time management skills caused me a lot of sleepless
nights of writing research papers and studying for long exams. But of course,
we can always learn from our mistakes, as long as we don’t overdo it.

INTER-FACULTY OPTION IN AGING
THE OPTION IN AGING WAS LAUNCHED IN RESPONSE TO THE GROWING DEMAND FOR QUALIFIED
INDIVIDUALS FROM A VARIETY OF DISCIPLINES IN THE FIELD OF AGING. The Option in Aging examines:
how individual and societal changes and decisions made today will impact individuals in our society in the future;
how all sectors of society must respond to a diverse and aging population; and the potential for age-related
products, technology and services.
The core courses in the Option in Aging emphasize the strengths that different disciplines and faculties bring
to create a more comprehensive understanding of aging and the aging process. The Option in Aging consists
of 18 credit hours of aging-related coursework from the Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Human Ecology, Faculty of
Kinesiology and Recreation Management, Faculty of Nursing and Faculty of Social Work.
There are two required core courses plus an additional 12 credit hours of aging-related courses that will vary
by faculty. One of the core courses, Health and Physical Aspects of Aging is offered as KIN 2610 and
NURS 2610. The other core course, Social Aspects of Aging is offered as HMEC 2650, REC 2650 and SWRK 2650.
Space in these courses for University 1 students may be available when reserves expire. See the Class Schedule
in Aurora Student for reserve information, including the release date of reserved space.
