Show CURRICULA AND COURSES OF INSTRUCTION TRANSFER AND TERMINAL CURRICULA Students who enroll at Weber College should decide between two programs: (1) a program which qualifies them for upper division standing in a senior university or college, or (2) a program that ends with one or two years of junior college work and usually leads into the semi-professions and industry. Curricula for courses in semi-professions, trade, industry, business, or other occupations that will qualify students to enter the industrial or commercial world at the end of two years or less of study are designed for those who choose the second program. Courses numbered from 1 to 49 inclusive belong to the first program and are called "transfer courses." Courses numbered 50 and above belong, in the case of most curricula, to the second program and are called "terminal courses." Credit for terminal courses is allowed by senior institutions which offer similar programs but might not be accepted by universities and colleges where these programs are not catalogued. Division of Business Administration, Economics, and Secretarial Training Guy H. Hurst, Acting Chairman The Division of Economics and Business aims to give opportunity for a liberal education with special emphasis upon the commercial, social, and economic phases of life. In order to realize this objective to meet the growing demand for specialized refresher training, and to keep pace with recent tendencies in education, the division offers courses designed for three specific groups of students: 1. Those preparing for upper division standing in institutions of higher learning who desire to pursue courses leading to the baccalaureate degree in such fields as accounting, business administration, economics, marketing and secretarial science. 2. Those who desire to restrict their schooling to two years of semi-professional training in one of the several phases of commerce and industry, such as accountancy, management, or secretarial science. The curricula qualify the student to receive the Certificate of Completion. 3. Those who seek short-term, intensive training in certain specific business skills such as stenography, operation of office machines. |
