Course Planning Resource: MyPlan Utilize MyPlan! Map your courses listed on your degree audit onto your MyPlan (using the degree checklist and other tools such as time-schedule)
Course Planning Resource: Time Schedule Utilize UWB s Time Schedule! You can use the current quarter time schedule (for accurate information on courses offered in a given quarter), but also past quarter time schedules (to see what courses have been offered in which quarters in the past this doesn t mean they will be offered in future quarters, but it s possible (also check with your adviser).
Degree Requirements Degree Requirements You are responsible for ensuring the completion of all degree requirements. You are responsible for ensuring the completion of all degree requirements. Visit CHEMISTRY Websites DEGREE REQUIREMENTS tab Always use web for current information (DON T Bookmark!): A. Chemistry Degree Checklist Chemistry Degree Checklist B. Biochemistry Degree Checklist Biochemistry Degree Checklist C. BA Chemistry Degree Checklist BA Chemistry Degree Checklist BOOKMARK the Chemistry Course Descriptions Chemistry Course Descriptions website Check your Degree Audit Degree Audit once per quarter on MyPlan! This decides whether or not you can graduate. Make sure it is correct. If you think a requirement should be marked as complete, but it is not: 1) Reload your audit. 2) Send your advisor an email if you have a question. (include your full name full name and student ID number Make sure it is correct. student ID number) Amy Feldman-Bawarshi| afeldman@uw.edu
Planning Your Coursework Planning Your Coursework Get familiar with the Time Schedule Visit www.uwb.edu Current Students Resources Time Schedule (www.uwb.edu/registration/time.) Time Schedule. Plan out a tentative schedule on your MyPlan Visit www.myplan.uw.edu Run your degree audit! Search for courses! Make a plan! MyPlan App App. Note: Planning coursework does not register you! Note: Planning coursework does not register you! You must click the Registration button in the upper right Amy Feldman-Bawarshi| afeldman@uw.edu
Research Research How to find a research opportunity: 1. 1. View chemistry website View chemistry website 2. 2. Inquire with your faculty Inquire with your faculty 3. 3. UWB Undergrad Research UWB Undergrad Research Website Website BCHEM 498/499 https://www.uwb.edu/chemistry/research
Graduation Applications Graduation Applications Students should file for their graduation up to two quarters in advance. Example: If graduating in SPR22, file by first few weeks of AUT21 (before WIN22 registration). Students must make appointments with their academic advisors to file for graduation. Students will receive Graduation Senior Priority (GSP) in the last two quarters. This allows them to register at 6 am on the first day of registration for a particular quarter. You must track the UWB Academic Calendar for registration dates. It is your responsibility to follow the UWB Academic Calendar.
Petitioning Requirements Petitioning Requirements You might want to take a course that is not on the standard list of options. (Example: Example: A Seattle campus chemistry or physics upper division level elective) You must petition any courses not on your degree audit! Run your degree audit and compare your transcript: 1) What requirements might not be fulfilled that should be? 2) Are there any courses at the bottom of the audit ( Other Courses ) that are not counting towards anything that might? Petitions: Petitions: Visit the Chemistry or Physics website and click the Student Forms & Resources tab if you think a course should count! Amy Feldman-Bawarshi| afeldman@uw.edu
Minors (You must OFFICIALLY declare with advisor) Minors (You must OFFICIALLY declare with advisor) You can take any minor at any campus! www.uw.edu/uaa/advising Academic Planning Majors & Minors Undergraduate Minors Some common choices for UWB Chemistry or Physics Majors Business Mathematics Biology (Biochemistry Majors, it s easy to get a UWB biology minor!)
