THE WALLACE H. COULTER SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING WELCOMES YOU! I am pleased to have the opportunity to welcome you to the Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering (CSOE) at Clarkson. I am very glad you have chosen to join us this year as an Engineering Studies student. Our main goal in Engineering Studies is to provide an initial course of study and academic advice for career selection that will ultimately lead you to a B.S. degree in an engineering field of your choosing.

As you know, Engineering Studies is especially designed for those first-year students who are ready to start their university education and are reasonably sure they want to study engineering, but who are not yet ready to commit to a specific major. Engineering Studies aims to help such students formulate educational goals that fit individual interests and provide some time to experience university life before choosing a specific engineering course of study.

Engineering Studies students take a course of study for the first year that include courses applicable to all engineering majors – that’s how Engineering Studies students gain time to decide on a major. During that year, Engineering Studies can take advantage of a variety of campus-based programs and activities that provide enrichment and/or information about engineering majors and careers and, in some cases, that are just plain fun!

Being an Engineering Studies student at Clarkson is more than attending classes to learn the fundamentals of engineering. A large number of Engineering Studies students choose to participate in one or more of the many student team competitions during their time at Clarkson. These are the activities that comprise the SPEED Program (“Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design”, see

http://www.clarkson.edu/speed/), where students work as teams to analyze a problem, usually a pretty complicated one, and then design and build a solution just like in the “real world.” Many of the design teams travel to regional or even national competitions. It can be hard work, but it can be rewarding. Finally, let me encourage you to contact me directly with any comments or questions while you are an Engineering Studies student in the Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering at Clarkson. My telephone on campus is 6532 and my email address is [email protected]. I’d be pleased to hear from you anytime.

Sincerely,

John Moosbrugger

Professor and Associate Dean for Academic Programs Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering

This handbook has been written to answer questions you might have as you begin your first year at Clarkson University as an Engineering Studies student. In this handbook, you will find information pertaining to academic advising, curricula, Clarkson services, special programs, and advice about semester planning. If the information you need is not in this handbook, please contact Dr. John Moosbrugger at 268-6532/6446 or stop by the Office of the Dean, Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering, 102 CAMP. We will be happy to assist you!

John Moosbrugger

Associate Dean for Academic Programs Room 102 CAMP Email: [email protected] Voice: 315-268-6532 Fax: 315-268-4494 Ms. Eileen Winters Administrative Assistant Room 102 CAMP Email: [email protected] Voice: 315-268-6446 Fax: 315-268-4494

I would like to begin by trying to anticipate a few of your questions and concerns. Here is a brief set of “FAQs” (Frequently Asked Questions) for you to consider:

What can Engineering Studies do for me? With all the exciting career opportunities and options that exist today, it is not surprising that you are unsure of what curriculum or program of study to choose. Like so many others, you are ready to start your university education, but may not be certain just what career to pursue. Engineering Studies at Clarkson allows you to take classes with other engineering students, many of whom have selected a major, but keep your options open to explore academic opportunities and career

directions before you settle down to select a major area of study for yourself.

How does Engineering Studies work? Because the first year curriculum is largely common among the engineering majors,

Engineering Studies students enroll in courses for the first year without selecting a major. With the help of the Engineering Studies advisor courses are taken that are normally applicable to all engineering majors. That is how Engineering Studies students gain time to decide on a major.

How do I pick a major?

While taking courses as Engineering Studies students, the School of Engineering will provide information about and encouragement to participate in a variety of campus-based programs and

activities that, in turn, provide information about engineering majors and careers. A fall seminar series especially for Engineering Studies students will introduce you to each engineering major at Clarkson. Engineering Studies students also

actively participate in discussions with classmates, roommates, study group members, friends, faculty, and others that lead to more learning about majors and career choices.

When the time comes that you do decide to pursue a specific engineering major for your degree program, the process is simple – you go to the academic department in the School of Engineering that offers the major your want, and tell them of your decision. There you will find faculty and staff who will help you complete the transfer. Of course, the Engineering Studies advisor will be pleased that you have made your decision, and should be informed of your decision, too.

What is special about Clarkson and Engineering Studies?

Clarkson is the only major technological institution in the East located in the relaxed, friendly

atmosphere of a small town. Many things may be said to describe the ways in which Clarkson and Engineering Studies are special, but a good place to begin would be to note that Clarkson receives wide recognition for its academic programs in the Schools of Engineering, Arts and Sciences, and Business. In addition, Clarkson makes it possible to choose from among academic majors that cut across the traditional boundaries between the three Schools through one of several interdisciplinary programs, such as: Software Engineering, Engineering and Management, Environmental Science and Policy, Environmental and

Occupational Health, and Bio-Molecular Science. In addition, Clarkson provides advising for students

(6)

who want to pursue curricula specifically structured to be pre-professional preparatory, such as Pre-Medicine, Pre-Law, and Pre-Physical Therapy. Because you are an Engineering Studies student, you know you want engineering as your focus, but you are uncertain about the specific field of engineering you want to focus on for your degree. You have opted to enroll in the School of

Engineering without specifying an engineering degree program as your major.

What services and activities should I know about as an Engineering Studies student? Many support services are integral to the Clarkson experience. All students benefit from Clarkson’s friendly atmosphere, mix of small and large classes, and close contact among faculty and students. Professors have regular office hours and many provide a home phone number along with office phone, fax, and email addresses.

There are more than 50 student organizations and clubs, covering a wide spectrum of activities from sports to journalism to the fine arts. If you like music or play an instrument, for example, you might enjoy playing in the Pep Band. As well, opportunities abound for both men and women to participate in intramural athletics throughout the

academic year. Clarkson has intramural leagues in 10 different sports with more than 100 teams. The University has an impressive array of facilities for informal recreation and physical fitness exercise center, including an arena for skating, a field house for basketball, volleyball, tennis, indoor track, racquetball courts, weight rooms, a 25-meter indoor pool, and miles of trails starting right on campus for hiking and cross-country skiing or mountain biking. Be watching for announcements about the

“Activities Fair” which is held at the start of the semester and on other occasions during the academic year.

Engineering Studies students often choose to participate in one or more of the many design competitions, though usually that occurs after they pick a major. The design competitions are the activities that comprise the SPEED Program (“Student Projects for Engineering Experience and Design”, see http://www.clarkson.edu/speed/ ), where students work as teams to analyze a problem, and then design and build a solution. Most of these teams take their entry to a regional or even national competition. Feel free to contact Bob Davis, Director of SPEED in CAMP 125.

Engineering Studies and Being a Student at Clarkson Introduction

You may have already heard from friends, family members, or guidance counselors that you will experience a different form of education when you enter college that college is not like high school. Now, that does not imply that you should be apprehensive about college, but it does imply that you should keep your eyes open to the new environment, learn to adjust, and ask questions.

Self-reliance

During the next four years you should find yourself gaining more and more reliance. But self-reliance does not mean that you have to do everything yourself; it does mean that you ask for help when you need it and stand on your own two feet when you do not. Developing self-reliance should be one of your goals in college.

Professionalism

One adjustment to college is to think of yourself as a student - professional; a student who will become a professional engineer. Like any professional position, there are certain expectations that you must fulfill. The best way to meet these

expectations is to keep on top of things; do not let yourself fall behind.

Also, go to classes prepared; have all your work and reading done, and have questions ready. Participate in the discussions, practice the problems the professors assign, and push yourself to do your best. Make the best of every opportunity presented to you. You are building the base for your

professional career; build a strong base. The professors may not always cover in class everything you need to know, so study beyond the lecture. You will find that most professors are more like guides, and you may discover that you have to be both the teacher and the student more than you had to in high school. That is not saying

(7)

they do not want to help or teach; they are just forcing you to play a stronger role in your education. They are preparing you for the professional world, where there are no obvious teachers. While discussing and learning course material, it is important for you to realize that in most cases individual professors do not establish the content of courses. In order for you to compete successfully with your peers once you enter the work-force, you need to achieve a basic level of competence in many areas. Many courses build upon other courses to achieve this basic level. Therefore, it is essential that certain topics are covered in courses to ensure your ability to compete successfully. While you may feel some courses tax your abilities, the faculty are striving to give you the best opportunities for your careers. By completing the required courses in your chosen curriculum you will obtain a strong academic background and competency.

Near the end of each semester your professors will give you a course evaluation form to complete. Your constructive comments regarding the course and the professor are taken seriously. Each professor’s salary, tenure, and promotion are influenced by the information on the course evaluation forms.

In addition to your evaluations, there is an ongoing procedure for peer review of faculty in the CSOE. The review consists of evaluations of a given faculty member by other faculty members who sit in on classes and meet with groups of students in the classes to discuss aspects of the teaching of the faculty members under review. Reports from these reviews are used as a basis to improve teaching performance.

Integrity and Ethical Behavior

The Clarkson University Code of Ethics states: “Clarkson values personal integrity.

Matriculation at Clarkson carries with it the obligation that a student will not claim as his or her own, the work of another, or any work that has not been honestly performed, will not take any examination by improper means, and will not aid and abet another in any dishonesty.” Violations of the Code of Ethics are regarded as most serious offenses and render the offenders liable to severe disciplinary action. Alleged violations of the Code of Ethics are dealt with according to the section on the Academic Integrity

Committee as set forth in Clarkson University

Regulations, which are viewable at

www.clarkson.edu/studentaffairs/regulations/. Advisors and Advising

While you are in Engineering Studies Dr. John Moosbrugger, Associate Dean of Academic Programs, Ms. Lis Chapman, Dr. Jan DeWaters or Ms. Elisabeth Wultsch in the Coulter School of Engineering will be your academic advisor. Once you pick a major your academic advisor will be a faculty member in the department that offers a degree in your new major.

Advisor - Student Relationship

Visit your advisor frequently – more than once each semester! This is especially valuable after you pick a major because it will be important for your advisor to become familiar with you and for you to become familiar with your advisor. This will make the advising process easier and more productive for both of you. For example, your advisor will be able to write more effective letters of recommendations for you if he/she knows you well. Advisors want to help, but it is important to note that he/she also has many other things to do as well. Like you, their time is restricted. So, call ahead for an

appointment. That way they are not caught off guard and they can be prepared for the meeting with you. Remember – when they are out of their office or out-of-town it is usually on professional business that is increasing the reputation of the university and therefore the value of your degree. What is the Advisor’s Responsibility?

Your advisor is there to help you. Help may include career advice, help in choosing courses, or assistance in dealing with personal difficulties. Your advisor will meet with you during the first few weeks of classes and prior to the enrollment period. The advisor prepares for these meetings by knowing each curriculum. That means knowing substitute courses, course options available, and the best courses for certain areas of interest. Finally, the advisor must know you, the student. Knowing your goals and interests will help your advisor to suggest courses that best suit your academic interests and professional goals. After discussing your courses your advisor will sign your course selection form and release your hold in People Soft for your enrollment appointment.

(8)

What is the Student’s Responsibility? You will be invited to attend student events designed specifically toward helping you to decide on and transfer into a major. It is extremely important that you try to attend as many such functions as possible so that your choice is based on as much knowledge as possible.

It also is the student’s responsibility to seek

assistance whenever necessary. Always do this in a timely fashion to avoid jeopardizing your

academic standing due to a missed deadline. Again, it is prudent to call your advisor ahead of your desired meeting time and make an

appointment so your advisor can be prepared for your meeting. Often, a sign-up sheet will be posted outside of an advisor’s office just prior to

enrollment period for the next semester and this can be used to schedule your advising appointment.

Degree Information

What is the Clarkson Common Experience? The Clarkson Common Experience provides a common set of learning expectations and outcomes for all Clarkson students. To achieve these

outcomes, each student is required to complete a set of courses and a professional experience.

Coursework consists of required and elective courses both from within a student’s major field and from across the spectrum of disciplines in the University. Embodied in the Common Experience are four components that serve as common threads through multiple courses:

 Learning to communicate effectively;  Developing an appreciation for diversity in

both working and living environments;  Recognizing the importance of personal,

societal and professional ethics; and  Understanding how technology can be used

to serve humanity.

Each of these components is introduced early in the curriculum, reinforced in subsequent courses, and included in upper division courses.

Knowledge Areas and University Courses Students must achieve learning outcomes in areas of knowledge listed below. The knowledge area requirement is met by completing five individual courses including at least one University Course that unites two areas of knowledge. Together, these

courses must cover four of the following Knowledge Areas (KAs):

 Cultures and Societies – CSO

 Contemporary and Global Issues – CGI  Imaginative Arts – IA

 Science, Technology and Society – STS  Economics and Organizations – EC  Individual and Group Behavior – IG All students must take at least one University course after the first year. University courses address learning outcomes in two of the six KAs. University course are multidisciplinary, and students observe, and think and learn in the context of both disciplines. For a complete list of courses that satisfy the above listed KAs, please visit the SAS Web Site at

http://www.clarkson.edu/sas/classes_schedules/doc uments/ka_fall_detail.pdf for fall and

http://www.clarkson.edu/sas/classes_schedules/doc uments/spring_common_exp.pdf for spring. Mathematics, Science and Technology Courses Students must achieve learning outcomes in basic mathematics, science and technology by

completing five courses in these areas. Students develop quantitative literacy through the study of mathematics, including probability and statistics. Students must take two or more courses in mathematics as specified by the major. Students develop an understanding of the principles of science and technology through two natural science courses, at least one of which must have an

integrated laboratory component. Students gain an understanding of how technology is developed through a course that addresses the theme of technology serving humanity.

Communications

Clarkson places a strong emphasis on developing students' abilities to communicate effectively in a variety of contexts using diverse forms of

communication. Students must select coursework and possibly extra-curricular activities that carry a total of at least six communications points. Courses and activities with a communications component will be identified as carrying either one or two communication points. At least two points must come from within the student's major discipline in a course at the 300 or 400 level.

(9)

Major Field of Study

A significant characteristic of the Common Experience is the integration of requirements from both outside and within a major field of study. Each student pursues a degree program in a major field and must complete a set of prescribed courses to demonstrate mastery of that field. As part of these courses, students achieve outcomes to meet requirements of the Common Experience as described below.

Information Technology Expertise

Students will gain expertise in using information technology and computational software appropriate to their major field of study.

Professional Requirement

The Professional Requirement incorporates learning outcomes involving professionalism, ethics, and diversity. These outcomes include understanding the concepts of professionalism, professional responsibility, and professional ethics, and knowing how the student's professional community promotes, supports, and enforces these concepts. Students should develop an appreciation for the value of diversity in the workplace.

Professional Experience

All students participate in an approved professional experience following the first-year such as a co-op, internship, directed research, or community project clearly related to the student’s professional goals. More details can be obtained on the web at

http://www.clarkson.edu/engineering/CSOEProfEx pWorksheet.pdf .

Bachelor's Degree Graduation Requirements 1. At least 120 credit hours.

2. At least a 2.000 cumulative average.

3. At least a 2.000 cumulative average in the major field of study

4. Meet the requirements of the Clarkson Common Experience.

5. Meet the requirements for a degree program as determined by the offering department or school.

6. A student entering as a first semester freshman must have been in residence for at least four semesters, including the final undergraduate semester; or, if entering with advanced standing, have completed at least half the remaining upper-level undergraduate work in residence at Clarkson. The program must include a minimum of two semesters (30 credit hours) including the final undergraduate semester.

Commencement

Any student who is within six (6) credit hours of meeting the graduation degree requirements may participate in Commencement. Students who require more than six (6) credit hours to complete degree requirements will not be allowed to participate in Commencement and they will be required to complete their remaining credit hour requirements on-campus. The written approval of the Department Chair must be obtained by a student who has completed all but six hours for graduation in order to complete them off campus.

Academic Regulations

All students are subject to University Regulations. In particular Academic Regulations, including Academic Standing can be found at

For more information about the Honors Program, students should call the Honors Director at 268-2290. Army and Air Force ROTC

Clarkson has two senior ROTC units. Army ROTC (http://people.clarkson.edu/depts/armyrotc/) offers training and instruction to prepare students for entry as a commissioned officer into all branches of the United States Army. Air Force ROTC

(http://people.clarkson.edu/depts/armyrotc/) offers training for entry as a commissioned officer into all

(12)

career areas of the United States Air Force. Upon graduation, Air Force and Army cadets are

commissioned as second lieutenants into the Active Duty Air Force or one of 16 specialized branches of the Regular Army, Army Reserve, or National Guard.

ESL Requirement

Students for whom English is a second language must take an English language placement

examination upon entering Clarkson. Based on the outcome of this examination, a student may be required to complete one or more ESL courses prior to enrolling in the Clarkson Seminar or any course assigned one or two communications points. Other Areas of Study

As a student in Engineering Studies, you are likely putting most of your planning efforts toward making your decision about one major. But, you need to know that you are not limited to only one degree or one specific area of study! You may decide to obtain dual degrees, a double major, or a second degree. Clarkson also has many graduate programs of study.

Dual Degree

A dual degree (two B.S. degrees) has the following characteristics: it consists of two Clarkson

bachelor’s degrees - for instance, a Mechanical Engineering Degree and a Civil Engineering Degree; the degrees are awarded at a single commencement; and it requires completion of 150 semester credit hours with at least 30 credit hours that are unique to each program. A dual degree also requires completion of a form that is available in all department offices, the SAS office or on-line at

http://www.clarkson.edu/sas/forms/seconddegreefil lable.pdf

Double Major

You may decide to pursue two majors (but one B.S. degree) while at Clarkson. Your advisor should be able to direct you to a source that can tell you the courses needed to complete the second (double) major. Paperwork must be completed to establish your double major. A double major degree requires completion of all requirements for both programs prior to graduation. The form can be found at:

http://www.clarkson.edu/sas/forms/doublemajorfill able.pdf

Second Degree

A second degree is the non-simultaneous awarding of two Clarkson bachelor’s degrees at two different commencements. To do this, 150 credit hours with at least 30 credit hours unique to each program must be completed. Also, at least 12 credit hours (6 of which are upper level courses) toward the second degree must be completed in residence after the awarding of the first degree. To obtain a second degree you have to be readmitted to Clarkson through the office of Student Administrative Services.

Change of Major

Students may declare or change majors at anytime, though doing so should be undertaken with

deliberate care and advice. Making the declaration or change is a simple, straightforward procedure that includes an informal interview with

knowledgeable personnel from the new major and completion of a simple form

http://www.clarkson.edu/sas/forms/changemajorfill able.pdf for submission to SAS by staff from the new major or department.

Special Interests

Many students have special interests. In order to develop these special interests, Clarkson

encourages students to follow their interests by allowing independent study projects. If you are interested, you should go to a professor or your advisor for assistance.

Advanced Placement/Transfer Credit Advanced Placement

Advanced Placement or transfer credit can be granted to you and Clarkson requires a score of 4 or higher. For further information and to get the credit applied to your transcript you need to contact a representative in the Student Administrative Services Center (SAS). AP credit must be

approved just prior to your first semester, otherwise a Dean’s exception must be granted in order to transfer in AP credits.

(13)

 A student must complete at least 24 credit hours for Sophomore status.

 A student must complete at least 54 credit hours for Junior status.

 A student must complete at least 84 credit hours for Senior status.

Transfer credit

Transfer credit from another college or university is approved through your advisor, the department under which the course is taught and the SAS Office. Before taking a course at another university, the Off-campus Course Work Permission form must be filled out. See your advisor for any questions about transfer credit. Grading System

Grades are reported in accordance with the

following system: A+, A, A-, B+, B, B- C+, C, C-, D, F (4, 4, 3.67, 3.33, 3, 2.67, 2.33, 2, 1.67, 1.0 quality points). Therefore, a student who passes a 3-hour course with an A will earn 3x4 or 12 quality points; a B, 3x3 or 9 quality points, etc. The quality point average is determined by dividing the total number of earned quality points by the total number of credit hours taken at Clarkson on a traditional basis (A+, A, A-, B+, B,…). Selected courses may be taken on the Pass/No Credit system where P=pass, quality-point average not affected; NC (no credit) on student’s record for C-, D, or F grade in courses taken as Pass/No Credit; P=passed (certain designated graduate courses), quality-point average not affected.

Midterm Grades

Midterm Grade Rosters will be created on-line for all courses. Midterm grades are intended to inform students of their academic progress; they do not become part of a permanent student record. In courses in which student work has been evaluated before midterm, one of the following two grades will be awarded: S-Satisfactory or

U-Unsatisfactory. A midterm grade of unsatisfactory (“U”) should be recognized as indicating

undergraduate performance below the level of a “C” grade. For those courses in which no student work has been evaluated before midterm, the report will show an “N” for each student.

Repeating a Course

Students can only repeat a course for which they have received a grade of D or lower. Once the course is repeated, the higher of the two grades will prevail and the lower grade will be omitted. The transcript is a historical document and so any coursework that has been completed will remain recorded. A repeated course will show up with a notation that it has been repeated and it will be omitted from the QPA calculation.

Academic Standing

1. Academic Warning. A full-time undergraduate student in Good Standing whose current semester Quality-Point Average (QPA) falls below 2.000 shall be placed on Academic Warning. To be removed from Academic Warning, back to Good Standing, a student needs to complete at least 12 credit hours with a current semester QPA of at least 2.000.

2. Academic Probation. A full-time undergraduate student on Academic Warning who fails to complete at least 12 credit hours with a current semester QPA of at least 2.000 will be placed on Academic Probation. To be removed from Academic Probation, back to Academic Warning, a student needs to complete at least 12 credit hours with a current semester QPA of at least 2.000.

3. Academic Separation. A full-time

undergraduate student on Academic Probation who fails to complete at least 12 credit hours with a current semester QPA of at least 2.000 will be separated from the University. Any undergraduate student who fails to attain a current semester QPA of at least 1.0 shall also be Separated from the University.

(14)

student must apply by e-mailing their letter of request, from their Clarkson e-mail account, to the Continuance and Readmission Review Committee at the following e-mail address: [email protected]. The student may also send their letter of request to the Continuance and Readmission Review Committee, c/o Student Administrative Services, Box 5575, Clarkson University, Potsdam, NY 13699-5575 or by fax (315-268-2321). The letter should state why the University should continue the student, the program(s) of study the student wishes to be continued in, and any other information the student feels pertinent to the situation. All cases of continuance require concurrent approval of the department chair or program director and of the University’s Continuance and Readmission Committee. If continued, a student’s academic standing will be Academic Probation. The academic standing acquired at the end of any semester shall take effect at the beginning of the next summer school or semester in which the student enrolls.

Further information may be found by contacting Student Administrative Services.

Dean’s List and Presidential Scholar List To qualify for the Dean’s List during any semester, a full-time undergraduate student must receive no failures and earn a semester quality-point average of at least 3.250. A 3.800 semester quality-point average or better qualifies a student for the Presidential Scholar List. Both lists require a student to be enrolled for at least 14 credit hours in a prescribed curriculum of which 12 or more credit

hours are graded in the traditional manner (not graded on a pass/no credit basis).

Degree With Distinction

At graduation, a student will receive the bachelor’s degree “with distinction” if his or her cumulative quality-point average is at least 3.250, and “with great distinction” if it is at least 3.750. A more detailed and complete explanation of all academic and graduation requirements at Clarkson appears on the Web at

www.clarkson.edu/sas/student_records/graduation.

Fundamentals of Engineering Exam (FE Exam) Professional registration is a very important step for many who wish to pursue a career in any field of engineering. To obtain registration as a

Professional Engineer (PE), you must successfully complete a two-part examination procedure. The first part, called the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) Examination, typically is taken in the spring of the senior year. The second part, called the

Professional Engineering (PE) Exam, is taken after completing at least four years of work experience satisfactory to the State Licensing Board;

qualifications to sit for the PE examination vary somewhat from state to state.

The FE exam is offered on campus, and to help you prepare for the exam, Clarkson offers weekly review sessions over the two months prior to the exam. You must be within 20 credit hours of completing your graduation requirements before you will be permitted to attempt the exam. If you have any further questions, contact the Coulter School of Engineering office, Room 102 CAMP Building or on the web at

How Can I Get Involved in Clarkson’s Student Life? Clarkson University is well known for its strong academics and for preparing students to enter the working world seamlessly and successfully. An important aspect of preparation deals with each student’s involvement outside the classroom and opportunities are abundant at Clarkson. Clarkson University Student Association (CUSA) at https://knightlife.clarkson.edu/

The CUSA is the acting student government on campus with responsibilities of budgeting and general oversight for the numerous clubs and organizations it recognizes on campus. The recognized clubs range from club sports, theater, the International Student Organization, Clarkson Union Board, Environmental Conservation Organization, the Pep Band, Ultimate Frisbee Club, Sports Car Club, and many more. It is responsible for allocating the $250 activity fee to the clubs and organizations, as well as to capital projects. Currently, the students are donating $6.25 million over 10 years to the new Student Center and have been the driving force behind it. Along with that, the CUSA Senate is responsible for working together with the Clarkson Administration on decisions affecting the student body. Student Projects for Engineering Experience & Design (SPEED) http://clarkson.edu/speed/index.html

SPEED teams offer a unique opportunity to bridge

academic programs and gain real experience in design and engineering. Along with that, there are opportunities to improve communication and teamwork skills and such business skills as marketing and public relations.

Employers recognize the valuable experience students gain by participating in SPEED teams.

Where can I get help with my career and internship/job search? The Career Center

http://www.clarkson.edu/career

Inventory your interests and build a career based on the functions of business that you enjoy. Talking to your professors or advisor is a good way to see what is available to you in the work world. Many faculty members have held industrial positions before entering teaching, or are working for industry or government as a consultant or researcher. For further help on inventorying your interests and choosing a career, stop by the Career Center and inquire about their career tests.

Make contact with the staff of the Career Center in the ERC during your first semester at

Clarkson to find out what they can do for you. Also, attend the Career Fairs held at Clarkson each fall and spring semesters. Many company representatives and alumni attend the Clarkson Fairs. It is a great opportunity to learn about the opportunities available. You can inquire about internship and Co-op positions.

Clarkson offers programs to broaden your college experiences. Both the Cooperative Education and Study Abroad Programs require a student to be off campus for at least one

semester. Participation in either of these programs require that you have at least a 2.5 cumulative GPA for the Co-op Program and a 3.0 for a semester exchange program(s) also research curriculum requirements so that you can ensure that you will have all necessary prerequisites and courses.

Cooperative Education Program (Co-op) The Cooperative Education is a good way to get practical experience by working for a company for one semester (and possibly the summer months). To find out more about this program

contact the Co-op Office located in the Career Center of the ERC building. Please take note that written approval from the department is required before a student leaves on Co-op. Semester Exchange

A semester exchange is usually completed in the junior year through exchange programs that Clarkson has with universities in Australia, Austria, England, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Japan, Korea, Mexico, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, and Wales. To find out more details, contact the Career Center or visit their Web site. Students are expected to apply through the Career Center during their sophomore year with the expectation of study during their junior year. Prior to departure, an Off-Campus Course Work Permission form must be completed and

approved for each course. In addition, “Good Standing” status is a requirement. For more information, visit the study abroad Web site at http://www.clarkson.edu/career/students/study_e xchange/

Resume, Internship and Job Search The Career Center staff is very helpful and qualified to assist you with writing and designing your resume. It is wise to stop by early on in your college career to find out how to begin building the credentials for your resume. The Career Center can also help you with strategies and contacts for finding internships, co-ops and jobs. Their office also conducts mock interviews upon request.

Be sure to sign up for Knightlink, the online recruiting tool for internship, co-op and job search during your first year at Clarkson – it’s free!! Just stop by the Career Center to register.

selections are limited. Invest the time to understand the system and how it works, and you will find greater success in the future.

Message: Combined section is full

In some instances, two departments offer the same class and advertise it with their own designator. For example,

Organizational Behavior is offered in both the School of Business and the School of Arts & Sciences – OS286 and PY286 respectively. While it may appear to have seats available, enrollment in both courses is added to determine if the class has reached capacity.

Message: Maximum term unit load exceeded.

Students can only enroll in the number of credit hours listed in his/her enrollment appointment. If a student would like to take additional credit hours he/she must meet with his/her academic advisor and SAS. The maximum academic load is 19 credits hours for undergraduates.

Message: Minimum term units.

Students cannot drop below full-time credits, which is 12 credits for undergraduates. Seek guidance from your academic advisor and/or SAS to avoid academic program and financial assistance and insurance problems.

Message: Multiple Enrollments not allowed Students can only enroll in a class once for the term. Message: Repeatable Limit

This indicates that this course has been taken previously. Some courses (i.e. directed study) may be taken multiple times; however, most courses may only be repeated if a student received a grade of D+, D or F.

Message: Requisites Not Met

This class has required pre-requisites or co-requisites, or possibly enrollment requisites specific to the class (for example ES100 where sections are tied to certain majors). To determine what requisites exist, go to the PS Catalog: Home > SA Self Service > Learner Services > Catalog > View Course Catalog

Message: Required Related Class

Many classes include more than one component (lecture, lab or discussion). One must enroll in all components. After selecting the enrollment component (the credit bearing component) on the Enroll in a Class page, enter the related component (the noncredit bearing component) on the Class Enrollment Options page that is presented. Note, in many cases you will be automatically enrolled in the related component if there is only one section.

Message: Success

The enrollment was successful!

Message: The enrollment limit has been reached The class is full. Some classes may appear to have seats available, but the class is full because seats have been reserved for students in specific majors.
