Show *To take a mathematics course for Honors credit, do the following. Enroll in the course, fill out an Agreement for Departmental Honors Component Credit form with the instructor which both the instructor and student should sign, and turn the form in to the Honors Program by the second week of the semester. Then abide by the contract. The requirements will be the regular course assignments phis some extra work which will vary with the course and the instructor, but it could include writing a paper, doing an extra project, doing extra readings and reporting on them, and/or giving a talk to the class (or in some other forum). The extra part of the course will be a significant assignment. Mathematics minor and teaching minor » Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better in all courses used toward the minor (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable). » Credit Hour Requirements: Minimum of 20 credit hours for regular emphasis and 24 credit hours for Mathematics Teaching minor. At least one upper-division mathematics course for three credit hours must be completed at Weber State University. Students who select the Mathematics Teaching Minor must satisfy the Teacher Education admission and licensure requirements (see Teacher Education Department).
