[Advising] FW: Listserve message request - BIO Minor in DegreeWorks

From: Heather Shattuck <heather.shattuck(a)utsa.edu&gt; Sent: Friday, March 5, 2021 4:07 PM To: UTSA Advising <advising(a)utsa.edu&gt; Subject: Listserve message request - BIO Minor in DegreeWorks Good afternoon, Could the following information be shared on the advising listserv? Per all active undergraduate catalogs, the following courses cannot apply toward the 9 hours of upper-division Biology electives for the Biology minor: labs, independent studies, research courses, and seminars (e.g. BIO 4981). Students can petition to have these courses count, however, and petitions should be sent to Dr. Hans Heidner in the Biology Department: hans.heidner@utsa.edu<mailto:hans.heidner@utsa.edu>. In addition to these courses, the only Honors seminar that can count toward the upper-division Biology electives is HON 3253, but only the "Intro to Clinical Medicine and Pathology" topic because it's cross listed with BIO 3013 (Intro to Clinical Medicine and Pathology). Unfortunately, DegreeWorks is not programmed correctly, and it pull in upper-division labs and all sections of HON 3253. DegreeWorks and Jimmy have been working on this matter for a couple months now and have had to elevate to the issue to Ellucian. I'm not sure when the updates will be reflected in DegreeWorks. For the time being, please make sure to "remove" any labs or sections of HON 3253 that are not "Intro to Clinical Medicine and Pathology" when working with your students with a declared BIO minor. Please email me directly with any questions: heather.shattuck@utsa.edu<mailto:heather.shattuck@utsa.edu>.
