II. University Overview and Institutional Licensure

OVERVIEWThe University of Fujairah (UOF), formerly Fujairah College, is a city-

government and non-profit educational institution formally established in 2006 by the Fujairah Welfare Association. The University received its license to operate as a higher education institution from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research on April 1, 2006.  On August 16, 2006, the University received its status as an accredited academic institution from the Commission for Academic Accreditation, Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research (CAA-MOHESR) to offer the first two Associate of Arts (AA) degrees or two-year diploma in Business Administration and Information Technology, effective September 1, 2006.

The University expanded the academic curricular programs and endeavored to pen the next ladder of its two-year diploma programs to Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration (BBA), and Bachelor of Information Technology (BIT). In September 2010, the University started to offer Bachelor's degree programs in three major areas in Business Administration and two major areas in Information Technology: For BBA: Business Administration General, Human Resource Management, Banking and Finance; and for BIT: Networking and Security, and internet and e-commerce.

In 2013, two (2) additional accredited programs were accredited by the CAA. These are Bachelor of Mass Communication and Public Relations (BMCPR) and Diploma in Public Relation: The BMCPR has four (4) concentrations in Journalism, Digital Media, Advertising, and Public Relation. On August 1, 2014, the Bachelor of Arts and Arabic Literature (BALL) was also accredited and on September 18, 2016, UOF received from the CAA the approval of the accreditation of the Master of Business Administration (MBA).

The commitment of the University to render outreach programs was heralded in the Emirate of Fujairah and nearby Emirates through the establishment of the Center for Continuing Education and Executive Development (CCEED) in 2007. The framework of learning development and core training areas of CCEED are focused on the Supervisory and Leadership Development Program; Business and Management Development Program; Information Technology Development Program; and, English Language Development Program. Also, the Center had administered the first Information Technology training programs and examinations on the International Computer Driving License (ICDL). The University continuously renders outreach-training programs to various individuals, private and public organizations in Fujairah and beyond.

Economic conditions in Fujairah indicate that emphasis must be given to enhancing investment and employment. The economic policy of the Fujairah

government is based on safeguarding and respecting individual freedom in the ownership in the means of production and undertaking any business activities. For growth to be enhanced and sustained in Fujairah, there needs to be an investment in human capital and skills. Unlike other natural resources, human resources, if left unutilized (due to unemployment), deteriorate rapidly. Unemployment is costly both to the individual and society; long-term unemployment reduces the chances of finding a job and erodes self-confidence and self-respect fostering a sense of dependency and powerlessness. The enhancement of investment and, therefore, employment would require the diffusion of specific skills among university graduates in areas such as leadership, entrepreneurship, and innovation. These types of skills can only be provided by higher education institutions that have the capacity to:

Offer good quality undergraduate and graduate programs. Intensify research components of these programs. Foster academic and applied research.

Fujairah's government with the association of the Fujairah Welfare Association emphasized the urgent need for supporting a higher education institution that can effectively provide educational programs (undergraduate and graduate programs) and academic and applied research activities that best contribute to the development of adequate skills and competence among graduates. To help achieve this end, a Memorandum of Association (MOA) has been issued between the Government of Fujairah and the Fujairah Welfare Association. As a result of this MOA Al Maaref, Education Company LLC has been established to fully support the transformation process and delivery of the strategic plan towards achieving the mission of UOF.

The UOF shall fulfill the following requirements:

Undergraduate and graduate programs and research activities must be offered jointly to maximize the contribution of the University to the development of human resources required for the implementation of economic policies of the Government of Fujairah.

The full support of the Government of Fujairah and the Fujairah Charity, formerly Fujairah Welfare Association.

Unlike all other Emirates, the Emirate Fujairah has no university of its own. Therefore, the UOF is the first government-supported university in Fujairah.

Because of government support and because of the relatively low cost of living in Fujairah, the UOF will have a great opportunity of attracting students from all other Emirates, the GCC countries, and the African Region.

The tourism sector, the Fujairah Port, the banking sector, and the Fujairah Free Zone all require well-educated and trained professionals who will be able to either exploit investment opportunities or undertake professional jobs.

The UOF with its mission can significantly contribute to providing these well-educated and trained professionals.

BACKGROUNDIntensive consultation with stakeholders (the Board of the University of

Fujairah; the Executive Committee; the Board of the Fujairah Charity (formerly Fujairah Welfare Association); faculty, and staff at the University of Fujairah, and community) revealed that it is the time for the Emirate of Fujairah to have its university. The government of Fujairah and the association of the Fujairah Charity are fully committed to supporting the implementation of the University of Fujairah’s Strategic Plan towards realizing its program goals and objectives. The strategic direction of the University of Fujairah (UOF) reflected in the views and believes of all stakeholders, is to realize the following:

A higher education institution that provides high-quality education. The Higher Education Institution is a government non-profit university. The University provides learning opportunities for all potential students,

regardless of their geographic location, nationality, or culture. This will require the introduction of smart learning technologies in the form of Blended Learning. However, face-to-face teaching in physical classrooms must continue to be the main teaching method.

The University provides both undergraduate and graduate programs and fosters academic and applied research.

To effectively contribute to the development of human resources in Fujairah and the UAE, the University diversifies its academic programs that provide skills and competence necessary for enhancing investment and employment (e.g. leadership, entrepreneurship, and innovation).

5. For Third and Fourth-Year students the number of physical face-to-face classes will be gradually reduced and self-learning will constitute a greater portion of the course delivery. Self learning shall be enhanced through online course or part of course content, e-books, recorded master classes, and other types of e-resources.

6. In all cases, the percentage of program/course contents that are delivered through e-learning shall never exceed 50% of the program/course contents.

7. All activities of student’s assessment that require direct instructor-student contact (e.g. mid-tern and final examinations) must be undertaken in physical face-to-face manner.

8. In order to provide a successful Blended Learning environment, intensive professional development program for faculty, staff and students shall be continuously implemented in every individual semester.

POLICY ON ADVANCED STANDING The University does not grant or award any credits earned by prospective new students from any form of completion of portfolios, other form of examinations to any graduate and undergraduate programs at UOF.

POLICY ON RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNINGThe University does not grant or award any credits earned from life experiences or any form of prior learning such as advance courses and training programs earned from non-tertiary or non-accredited post-secondary institutions to any graduate and undergraduate programs at UOF. However, if the the need arises based on the nature of the academic program, the policy shall be applied. This policy is adopted from the University of Dubai and operationalized it according to the context of University of Fujairah.

I. Overview UOF is committed to draw integrity in terms of efficient delivery of academic programs. With the institutional mandate, it is therefore imperative to set the policy on recognition of prior learning.

II. ScopeConsistent with alignment of UOF programs with QF Emirate Grid 7, 8, 9 and 10, the Policy on Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) aims to optimize student progression through award courses by recognizing prior learning outcomes as the basis for satisfying some course requirements. RPL may be based on formal and/or informal learning.

III.ObjectiveThis policy aims to provide guidelines for recognizing prior learning of students.

Specifically, it shall: facilitate students' movement between institutions and between courses of

various types and levels, provide prospective students with a comprehensive and informative

system of prior learning, thereby enabling them to evaluate with

24

Page 27: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

confidence the extent of RPL they would receive on admission to a UOF program for which they may be eligible,

relate any decision on RPL to a program of study within an award course, enable students to complete award courses with maximum efficiency by

using and building upon knowledge that has been gained from prior learning experiences, and

maintain established academic standards for graduates completing UOF award courses.

IV. Policy Statement

The following key works are operationally defined:

Definition of RPL

RPL is the term used to specify what is granted to a student on the basis of prior learning. RPL is expressed in terms of the unit(s) and number of credit points that the student is not required to undertake in their UOF program because of the prior learning.

Applications for RPL

Students can apply for RPL either with their application for admission to the University or at any later time during their studies. An application for RPL will not be accepted prior to an application for admission.

Any RPL granted must be considered in conjunction with an identified study plan. Where a study plan is based on a student’s nominated major and that major is subsequently varied by the student, RPL applied in relation to the first major proposed may no longer be applicable to the study plan for the new major.

Advanced standing precedent list

A comprehensive and student-friendly RPL-Precedent List (RPL-PL) will enable prospective students to assess in a reliable manner the amount of RPL they are likely to receive on admission to a UOF award courses.

The RPL-PL ensures consistency and efficiency of decision-making. A precedent records an RPL decision with the aim of applying that decision to subsequent comparable cases. Precedent decisions include those of non-equivalent as well as those of equivalent learning outcomes. The database of precedents, together with other advanced standing determinations, constitutes the RPL-PL.

The following decisions on RPL must be recorded in the RPL-PL:

all previous decisions, including those of non-approval, RPL based on negotiated formal arrangements with other institutions, RPL based on assessments of formal learning at other institutions,

including vocational education and training institutions, and

25

Page 28: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

RPL based on continuing education programs or other informal learning programs (including arrangements for the automatic granting of RPL for designated continuing education programs).

The RPL-PL database must be consulted in relation to any advanced standing application being considered.

To ensure that the use of the RPL-PL remains soundly based academically, RPL-PL entries should include a designated time limit, and must be monitored regularly by the relevant academic Heads of the department. The Registrar is the data custodian for the RPL-PL.

Principles in the Determination of Advanced Standing

Applications for RPL are assessed in the first instance against RPL-PL. Where no precedent exists such that a new assessment must be made with the outcome subsequently added to the RPL-PL, the following principles will apply:

(a) Determinations on RPL are made at the most appropriate academic level- Decisions on specified RPL for individual UOF units are made by the Dept.

Head (in collaboration with the relevant study area instructor where appropriate). Where a decision is made about specified RPL in respect of a particular UOF unit, that decision will be applied consistently across the Colleges on the basis of the RPL-PL.

- Decisions on specified RPL, that are applicable to the level of a course and may involve a holistic judgment, for example, in respect of the complete first year of a UOF course, are made by the dean or course coordinator (or course coordinator where appropriate).

- Decisions on unspecified RPL are the responsibility of the dean or the program coordinator of the course for which the student is applying or has been admitted.

(b) Maximum RPL available is based on the length of the award course to which the RPL will be applied

For the undergraduate, RPL may be granted not more than 50% for all courses in the undergraduate program; and graduate programs, RPL may be granted not more than 25%. This ensures that student completes at least remaining 50% for the undergraduate program and 75% for graduate curricular programs of UOF.

(c) Currency of prior formal learning must be taken into account The granting of RPL normally relies on currency of a student's knowledge.

Consideration in anyRPL decision should be given to whether knowledge in the field is suitably

current or has become dated, for example by changes in practice or technology.

(d) RPL for credentialed prior learning requires original evidenceWhere the basis for RPL is formal learning from an approved institution, the RPL

is granted only on the basis of original evidence of successful completion. Approved domestic qualifications are those listed with the domestic and international institutions whose programs are aligned with Quality Framework (QF) Emirate Grid 1-10.

26

Page 29: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

(e) RPL is dependent on the award level of prior formal learningRPL for formal learning is normally granted at the same award level. RPL for prior

learning at bachelor level, for example, would be granted towards a bachelor level award course at UOF. RPL will normally be granted for prior studies undertaken at a lower award level only where a formal RPL arrangement exists, or where the different level courses are part of a nested suite or approved articulating set of courses and a higher award level in the suite has not already been completed.

(f) RPL for credentialed learning is to be based on grades equivalent to UOF letter grades of A, B & C

RPL will not be granted on the basis of failed studies or on the basis of exemptions obtained in prior formal learning. To maintain academic standards, RPL based on non-UOF study must be equivalent to a UOF letter grade of A, B & C.

(g) RPL for uncredentialed learning requires appropriate evidenceRPL may be granted on the basis of informal or uncredentialed learning based on

program outcomes achieved in these programs, such as professional work or life experience, provided that appropriate evidence is provided.

RPL applications must be considered on a case by case basis, taking into account the individual student's circumstances, award program and the documentary evidence provided. Due to the unstructured and highly variable nature of uncredentialed learning, this type of RPL cannot be the subject of any precedents. Care, nevertheless, must be taken by course instructors to maintain consistency over student/program cohorts.

RPL Arrangements - Vocational and Technical Educational Sector

The UOF is committed to working with the Vocational and Technical Education sector to establish a range of pathways through which UOF’s courses are linked with these sector courses within the ambit QF Emirate Grid 1-5.

Procedures

The Department Head or the Dean in each college determines procedural requirements for applications of RPL and is responsible for managing RPL processes.

REGISTRATION 1. Students after consultation with their academic advisors can register

online or in the campus. 2. The registration of courses is confirmed and access to the courses on the

University’s Electronic System is granted only when the advisor approves the courses selected by the student and the payment for the courses is complete. Courses are automatically dropped from the student’s record if the payment has not been received before the end of the Add/Drop period.

3. New students register for courses as part of the orientation program that

27

Page 30: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

immediately precedes the start of each semester.4. Continuing students register for the spring semester during the last week

of instruction in the preceding fall semester and for the fall semester during the last week of instruction in the preceding spring semester.

5. Prior to registration, students must contact their advisors and obtain approval of the courses for which they wish to register.

6. Students are not considered to be registered unless their names appear on the official course roster from the DAR.

7. If the students’ names do not appear on the official course roster at the end of the add/drop period, students are responsible for informing the course instructor. The instructor will report the problem to the DAR, which has the responsibility for correcting a clerical error or informing the students of the problem (such as nonpayment of fees). The students are responsible for taking steps to correct errors that are brought to their attention. Failure to do so may result in the students not getting credit for the course.

ADDING COURSESStudents may add courses during the first week of the semester only if space is available in the class. Students must take add/drop form from Head, DAR who will indicate if space is available in the class. If space is available, the students must then pay appropriate fees at the Cashier’s Office before they are considered added to the course.

WITHDRAWING FROM COURSES1. Students may occasionally have to withdraw from a course during a

semester. Accordingly, withdrawal for compelling reasons is permitted. During the first week of instruction, students may withdraw from a course by filling in a completed add/drop form with the Head, DAR. Withdrawing from a course during the first week of the semester does not need approval from the instructor and there will be no indication on the students’ permanent record that the student enrolled in that course.

2. After the end of the first week of instruction, withdrawals are allowed only for compelling reasons. Students who wish to withdraw from a course must submit a withdrawal form, which must be approved by the faculty member teaching the course and by the Program Coordinator/Chair/Dean. If the withdrawal request is approved and the student is passing the course, the student will be assigned a grade of WP by the DAR.

3. If the student who requests to withdraw from the course is failing the course, the student will receive a grade of WF, which will be calculated as an F failing grade. Students who withdraw from a course after the end of the first week without the appropriate approvals will receive a grade of WF (which is calculated as an F in the grade point average) for that course. Students who stop attending classes will automatically be assigned a grade of WF.

VII.Academic Terms, Regulations and Course Registration

CREDIT HOURSDefinitionA semester credit hour is defined by the total number of hours a student must study per week, over duration of one semester to complete the requirements of particular course. This total time includes:

1. Time spent in formal class instruction whether in an online or traditional face-to-face setting.

2. Time spent in laboratory, internship, or other scheduled activity (when applicable).

3. Time devoted to reading, studying, writing, preparation or problem solving.

4. Time spent on directed self-paced learning and asynchronous communication.

A semester credit hour is assigned in the following ratio of component hours per week devoted to the course of study:

1. Formal Class Instruction: One credit hour is defined as the equivalent of one hour of formal class instruction plus an average of two hours of out of class self-study (preparation for formal class instruction, reading, homework, etc) for an undergraduate level course and an average of three hours of out of class self-study for a graduate level course per week over a 15 week semester. Formal class instruction occurs under the supervision of faculty members in either an online or traditional face to face setting. Typically, the credit hours for an online course are calculated in a similar way as they would be for a traditional campus course since the outcomes and the expectation for work is the same with more emphasis placed on the learner’s out of class studying.

2. Experimental Laboratory: One credit hour is usually equivalent to two hours of experimental laboratory. “Experimental laboratory” involves demonstration by instructor and experimentation by learners, with the out-of-class study generally including practice and/or laboratory report writing. “Experimental laboratory” is under the supervision of an instructor.

Each course at University of Fujairah is assigned a specific number of credit hours, normally three credit hours on average. In most cases, credits assigned to a particular course are determined according to the number of hours per week that the class meets face to face and/or online. During the course of the semester, a credit hour is equivalent to:

15 hours of classroom contact, plus appropriate outside preparation (30 hours) OR

30 hours of supervised laboratory work, plus appropriate outside preparation OR

45 hours of internship

29

Page 32: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

a combination of the foregoing.

Length of Semester. 15 weeks of classes, excluding final examination periods.

Credit hour. 1 credit hour = 50 minutes of lecture or recitation per week

or 2 or more hours of laboratory per week throughout the semester.

Internship. Courses developed for experiential and hands-on learning involving off-site placement. Employers work collaboratively with the appropriate university staff or faculty to develop outcomes, learning experiences, and expectations in order for students to meet credit level requirements. Such credit is awarded at the rate of 45 hours per credit hour.

Accelerated Course. Courses offered in sessions less than a traditional

15 week semester. These courses offer the same semester credit hours as traditional semester-length classes. Within the shortened time frame, accelerated courses must meet the minimum contact hour requirements of the lecture format. In the event that courses do not meet the expected contact hour requirements, credit can be awarded for equivalent instructional activities, which can include but are not limited to online videos, online discussions or chats, quizzes and/or exams, article summaries, case analyses, online group activities, etc.

COMPLETION REQUIREMENTS POLICY FOR UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMSUndergraduate students must complete all course requirements, as well as other academic activities assigned to their specialized study plan. The GPA of each undergraduate student must be at least 2.0 out of 4.0.

The following are the minimum requirements for graduation:1. Successful completion of all courses under the study plan.2. Achieving a cumulative GPA of 2.00 and

above.3. Utilizing the minimum period of study required for awarding the

degree and not exceeding the maximum period.4. In addition to the above-mentioned graduation requirements, student

must fulfill any other requirements needed by his/her program of study.

REMEDIAL PROGRAM

a. A student who is conditionally admitted may be permitted to enroll in the remedial program for two (2) semesters. The remedial program is referred to as the following Intensive English Level Programs, a non-credit course that caters to students with 60% and above score in UAE Secondary School Certificate without minimum English Admission requirement.

English Communications Skills I (Level 1: Beginner or Intensive English Level Program 1)

English Communications Skills II (Level 2: Intermediate or Intensive English Level Program 2)

b. Students who do not have the necessary English Qualifications to permit direct entry into the University’s academic programs are required to take the English Placement Test. Such students are assigned to the Intensive English Level Program according to their scores in the placement test.

c. While enrolled in the Intensive English Program, students may enroll up to 12 credit hours from the list of appropriate and allowed General Education courses for each academic program to contribute towards an undergraduate degree.

d. After completing the Intensive English Program, students are required to meet the admission requirements regarding their English competence, an

31

equivalent score on a standardized test approved by the Ministry of Education, before admission to an academic program where English standardized test is required.

INDEPENDENT STUDYCourses are offered as directed studies with the approval and supervision of faculty members. Student(s) meet periodically as agreed upon during the duration of the course. Semester hour credit awarded must be comparable in scope, content, academic rigor and student study time as courses offered in lecture format.

ACADEMIC LOADThe study load for an undergraduate student usually ranges from a minimum of 9 credit hours to a maximum of 18 credit hours. In exceptional cases, a student may enroll for up to 21 credit hours, if:

The student’s Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is 3.6 or greater on a 4.00 scale.

This additional load will enable the student to graduate in the current semester.

ACADEMIC PROGRESS POLICYA. Semesters

Courses at UOF are offered in two semesters: A fall semester and a spring semester. Each semester consists of 15 weeks followed by the examination period. The University may also offer a summer session consisting of at least 6 weeks.

The student’s Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) is 3.6 or greater on a 4.00 scale.

This additional load will enable the student to graduate in the current semester.

D. Academic Attendance

1. Attendance at UOF is compulsory for Physical (face-to-face) and Virtual (online) classes.

2. Failure to adhere to this attendance policy would result in dismissal from courses.

3. The minimum percentage of face-to-face and virtual classes (combined) is 75%.

4. A student will not be allowed to take the final examination if he/she has missed more than 25 percent of physical and virtual classes (combined) during the semester.

5. Absence warning policies are set out below:a. If a student is absent for 10 percent of physical and virtual class hours,

the instructor will issue the 10% Absence Warning (First waning).b. If a student is absent for 20 percent of physical and virtual class hours,

the instructor will issue the 20% Absence Warning (second warning).c. If a student is absent for more than 25 percent of physical and virtual

class hours, the instructor will issue the 25% Absence Warning, and a student will be administratively withdrawn from the course and assigned a “WA” grade, which is not calculated into his/her GPA. Once being administratively withdrawn, the student may not sit for or have graded the final examination in the course.

6. For the Associate of Arts Degree Programs: students must study for at least two semesters and must have completed at least 50% of the total number of credit hours required at the University of Fujairah.

7. For the Bachelor Degree Programs: students must study for at least four semesters and must have completed at least 50% the total number of credit hours required at the University of Fujairah.

8. Students are expected to attend all lectures, recitations, quizzes, and laboratories regularly, either through traditional face-to-face classes or online.

9. Students may appeal to the Dean of the College by submitting official documentation asking for an exemption. Under exceptional circumstances (i.e. illness or death of an immediate family member) the College Dean may accept the appeal.

10.A student who, during his/her studies, desires a leave of absence of more than two full consecutive days for non-medical reasons should apply to the Dean of the College concerned in writing at the earliest opportunity, stating the reasons for which the leave of absence is required. Student Affairs will post weekly the names of all students receiving the attendance warnings. Each student is responsible for checking the list to ensure its accuracy.

N. Maintaining Good Academic Standing

To remain in good academic standing, undergraduate students must maintain an overall Cumulated Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 2.0 or better for all course work attempted at UOF. A student whose CGPA falls below 2.0 will be placed on academic probation for the following semester (summer terms are counted in the calculation of the probation periods for students who choose to register for 6 credit hours in each summer term). If at the end of that semester the student receives a GPA of 2.0 or above but is still below a CGPA of 2.0, h e / s h e will remain on academic probation for one more semester. Students will be notified of their status by receiving probation notices and a copy will be sent to the Academic Advisor, Chair of the Department, Student guardian and the Sponsor if any. Such students are allowed to register for no more than 15 credit hours for the first probationary semester and 12 credit hours for the second probationary semester. Students who do not meet the above criteria will be liable to the following actions according to their status:

Action 1: Students will be restricted to repeating courses in which they achieved grades below C, and/or taking one new course per semester only until they achieve a CGPA of 2.0 or above.

Action 2: Students who have completed 90+ credits of the total credit hours required for graduation will be granted the opportunity to continue their studies in the same academic program, but will be allowed to register for no more than 12 credit hours of repeated courses (those with grades below C) per semester until they achieve a CGPA of 2.0 or higher.

G. Application for Graduation

Students must apply for graduation during the eighth week of the semester before the semester in which they plan to graduate. The application must be signed by the students’ academic advisors and Program Coordinators and submitted to the Department of Admissions and Registration (DAR). The DAR will review the records of all students who have applied for graduation and inform them in writing of all requirements that still must be met to graduate and any deficiencies that need to be corrected. A report will be given to the student before registration for the next semester. A copy of the report will also be given to the student’s advisors.

H. Retention Policy

1. ADDING, DROPPING, AND WITHDRAWAL OF SUBJECTS

a. A student may drop or add subjects during the first week of classes in a regular semester or the first three (3) days of a summer semester.

b. A student may withdraw from subjects during the first week of instruction. c. After the first week of classes, withdrawals are allowed only for valid

reasons. Students shall use the withdrawal form duly approved by the instructor and academic advisor. Students shall be guided by the following:

34

Page 37: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

1) During the first week of instruction, students may withdraw from a course by filing a withdrawal form and submit the form to the Admission and Registration Department.

2) Withdrawing from the course during the first week of the semester does not need approval from the instructor, and there will be no indication on the student’s permanent record that he/she enrolled in that course.

3) After the end of the first week of instruction, withdrawals are allowed only for compelling reasons.

4) If the student is passing the course at the time of withdrawal, he/she will be assigned a grade of WP.

5) If the student is failing the course at the time of withdrawal, he/she will be assigned a grade of WF, which will be calculated as a failing grade.

6) Students who withdraw from a course after the end of the first week without the appropriate approval from the concerned academic authorities will receive a grade of WF which is calculated as an F in the grade point average for that course.

7) Students who stop attending classes without dropping the course will automatically be assigned a grade of WF.

2. LEAVE OF ABSENCE

The Leave of Absence Policy allows students to take a leave from UOF up to two (2) years and may consider students’ reasons such as health issues, financial difficulties, study abroad opportunities, family-and-or work obligations, and personal reasons. Students, who apply for a leave of absence, shall report to the Admission and Registration Department to fill-out required forms; and shall be encouraged to talk with an academic advisor about options, the process of taking a leave, procedures, and timeline of applying for readmission.

3. RE-ADMISSION

The following policy shall govern Re-Admission at UOF:1. When student returns during the time of his/her leave of absence,

he/she shall be re-admitted as continuing student status.2. With the aforementioned status, the student shall not be required to

reapply for admission, or to pay another admission fee upon returning.3. If the student does not return to UOF on or before the conclusion of his

leave of absence, the University, through the concerned department, shall advise him/her to reapply for admission, pay the admission fee, and be held to all the requirements at the time of readmission.

I. Probation Policy

1. Except for the first semester of enrollment, a student whose semester GPA falls below 2.0 in any semester or whose Cumulative Grade Point

35

Average CGPA falls below 2.0 shall be placed on academic probation, and shall not be considered to be in good academic standing.

2. A student shall remain on academic probation until his/her GPA rises to 2.0 or higher.

3. A student under probation shall be allowed to register for lesser subjects during the semester.

4. A student on academic probation shall not be eligible to hold office in any student club or organization.

J. Dismissal and Academic Suspension Policy

The University may dismiss a student if he/she did demonstrate satisfactory progress during his/her probationary period.Students on academic probation may be dismissed from the university if they remain on academic probation for more than two (2) consecutive semesters (if he/she receives the 3rd academic warning).

K. Academic Honors and Recognition Policy

A student who maintains an outstanding record of scholarship at UOF shall receive special recognition upon graduation. The following are the Grade Point Average (GPA) and the corresponding qualitative description:

GRADING AND ASSESSMENT POLICY Rigorous assessment is integral to the maintenance of academic standards.

Assessment must be fair, equitable, reasonable, transparent and valid. Learning experiences are designed to assist student achievement of the learning outcomes, and carefully designed assessment tasks allow students to demonstrate progress towards attaining these outcomes. Assessment is thus linked to course-level learning outcomes and graduate attributes which in turn reflect the subject and/or course-level learning outcomes and graduate attributes.1

A. Overview

The assessment provides an opportunity for students to undertake to learn and constitutes the process of collecting evidence and making judgments as to how well students have achieved the intended learning outcomes of a course. It is how progress or achievement is evaluated. The University of Fujairah encourages and values all valid and reliable forms of assessment. The assessment policy and the associated Guidelines for Assessment allow for diversity so as not to restrict academic staff to a single learning and teaching approach. Assessment methods may include assignments, examinations, project work, seminar papers, field and laboratory work, and tutorial participation. Assessment is a key part of the teaching and learning environment. In evaluating the assessment, the university values ethical behavior and does not tolerate dishonesty.

Assessment enables students to demonstrate progress towards attaining learning outcomes. Learning outcomes define what students are expected to know, understand or be able to do, to be successful in a course. Course learning outcomes describe something demonstrable and measurable. Learning outcomes are an essential section of the Course Outline. They should: communicate the learning outcomes being tested, and the type and depth of learning students are expected to achieve; deliverables and marking criteria should be indicated to students; communicate graduates’ skills to prospective employers, and indicate to the students how they might organize their learning program.

B. Diagnostic, Evaluative, Formative, and Summative Assessment

To fulfill its varied purposes, assessment can be: diagnostic, to provide information on students’ prior knowledge at the start of a course; formative, meaning the collection of information, usually through the informal assessment components of a course, to improve teaching and learning. Formative assessment provides specific feedback to students and teaching staff about student progress, helps to teach staff to diagnose learning needs, and to design, negotiate and modify learning activities for groups and individuals, to enhance 1 Derived from a document entitled “Assessment Policy”, University of New England, Australia, November 2008.

teaching and learning; and/or summative, meaning the collection of information through the formal assessment components of a course, to improve teaching and learning, but also to contribute to the calculation of a student’s final grade. Information collected for summative purposes is based on assessment tasks that reflect the range of concepts, processes, skills, and attributes, including graduate attributes, as set down in the desired learning outcomes of a course; and evaluative, meaning the collection of information to indicate the effectiveness of teaching and learning process(es) within a course.

Assessment can also be informative and used for recording and reporting purposes, which provides information about students’ performance across programs and forms the basis of deciding the overall award for the program.

C. Course Outlines

Course Outlines must be provided to students at the beginning of the teaching period detailing assessment details including topics, assessment criteria, the weighting of the task and moderation processes. Course Outlines must specify the following assessment details and criteria in an assessment brief for each assessment task:

the type of task; the topic of the task; the due date and submission time; the number of marks for the assessment task and the weighting or

percentage of the total marks achievable by completing the assessment;

the learning outcomes and graduate attributes to which the assessment relates;

the dimension or magnitude of the assessment as appropriate for the discipline (eg word length in the case of all written assignments);

the deliverables - the criteria upon which assessment will be marked; the moderation processes in place for marking any special

requirements.

D. Guidelines and Standards for Writing Examinations and Making Course Assignments

Faculty members shall be guided by the following considerations when preparing any form of examinations:

The assessment reflects course learning outcomes, Assessment should be appropriate. There should be a match between

each assessment task and the nature and extent of concepts, thinking processes, skills, and attributes, including graduate attributes being assessed;

the level of the course; the amount of assessment should reflect the course’s level, i.e. introductory or advanced;

Assessment should provide students with feedback on their progress; Assessment should be fair, equitable, reasonable, transparent and

valid meaning that all students are provided with adequate and

38

Page 41: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

appropriate learning opportunities throughout a course to enable them to demonstrate their knowledge, thinking processes, skills, and attributes, including graduate attributes through the set assessment tasks;

all students are informed at the start of each teaching period about the assessment tasks associated with a course, and the assessment criteria for each assessment item;

when marking assessment tasks, all judgments about achievement are made against stated assessment criteria (criterion-referenced assessment);

moderation processes are an integral part of the assessment system for each course where multiple markers are involved to ensure fair and equitable marking and grading of assessment tasks and maintenance of standards;

Changes in the forms of assessment or the number of assessment tasks are not permitted once the teaching period has commenced; and

Where extensions are possible, the maximum period of extension for completion of remaining work will be to the end of the next semester.

E. Timing of Assessments

Due dates for assessment tasks may fall into any part of the teaching period. Dates must be chosen to allow feedback to be received by students before the next related assessment task is due and before the final examination.

The timing of assessment tasks throughout a course should be managed so that students receive any necessary feedback before the next task and before the final examination (or equivalent tasks).

F. Assessment Tasks

Non-examination tasks: usually designed for completion under non-examination conditions (e.g., periodic assignments throughout a semester of study, major papers due at the end of a semester, research reports, problem sets, laboratory or practicum reports, various types of construction, composition, or performance). They provide maximal flexibility for student assessment. Each task should be considered for its appropriateness relative to the learning to be assessed, the feedback to be gained, and clarity in structure, intent and expected response. Each task should be designed so that students lacking the opportunity to access key supplementary resources, unless access is a requirement of enrolling in the course, are provided with alternatives of equal rigor.

Formative and/or summative self-tests or progress check tasks, which may include quizzes, allow for early and/or frequent feedback on progress towards achieving the learning outcomes. There can be more than one such task for a course and the cumulative percentage for the self-tests or progress checks [such as online quizzes] may be worth no more than a maximum of 20% of the total assessment.

39

Page 42: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

Where a course includes mandatory quizzes or tests in class, failure to take a quiz or a test will mean receiving a zero mark. An individual test shall constitute more than 5% and up to 20% of the final assessment for a course and shall generally be of a lesser duration than a final examination. There may be more than one quiz or test for a course.

Quizzes and tests may be held only in normal teaching times. Students must be given due warning of any test that will count towards the final assessment.

Student self and peer assessment. It is recognized that there may be courses where, for pedagogical

reasons, student self and/or peer assessments are sought as a valuable source of input into the course assessment process. Under no circumstances should any individual based course assessment, counting toward the aggregate mark for the course, be placed entirely in the hands of the students themselves. Student self and peer assessment must not constitute the major assessment method used for an entire course assessment program.

Final Examinations. They must be administered examinations, explicitly supervised, timed and controlled, and must be designed to be completed within the time allotted. Examinations must be designed so that students have a realistic chance of completing them within the assigned time because otherwise performance is confounded with reading speed and ability. Examination questions should address the learning outcomes to be achieved in the course of study. Students must be informed of the format of the examination and the link between the examination and the learning outcomes of the course. Assessment criteria for examinations, except multiple choice and other factual examinations, must be made available to students before the start of the examination period.

G. The weighting of Assessment Tasks

Consideration must be given to the appropriate weighting of each assessment task. In many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in terms of their relative importance, expected word length, difficulty or complexity, or the amount of course material expected to be covered. In these cases, the weighting system must be clearly explained in the assessment documentation provided to students. All the course’s learning outcomes must be addressed in assessment tasks. The final examination must be weighted 40%-50% in the aggregate mark for any course.

H. Authentication of Student Work and Recording of Performance

1. All academic works and materials submitted for assessment must be the original work of the student or group of students.

2. Students are prohibited from submitting any material prepared by or purchased from another person or company other than himself or herself.

3. Students shall adopt the American Psychological Association's (2016) referencing style in all academic papers and related written materials.

40

Page 43: CATALOG - uof.ac.ae …  · Web viewIn many cases, a simple average may be used which means that each task carries equal weight. Alternatively, assessment tasks may be weighted in

4. All written assessments such as academic essay, reaction papers, case study, research capstones: Opportunity Analysis Project—Designing a New Venture, Feasibility Study, Strategic Management, Special Topics Capstone, Projects and Integrated Papers and the like shall be uploaded to TURNITIN Plagiarism Software through the SMART Learning--UOF website to determine the extent of Similarity Index.

5. The TURNITIN report shall show “zero (0)” percent Similarity Index. If in cases there are few percentages of similarity, they shall be then referred to sources of similarity. If the percentages are attributed to UOF’s forms and templates, the similarity shall be considered as null and void.

6. Students shall then download, print and submit to the lecturer the results of their written works-assessments together with the results of the similarity index report.

I. Assignment Submission

1. All written assessments shall be submitted on or before 12:00 mid-night, a day before the deadline to the lecturer in class in a hard copy accompanied by the TURNITIN Similarity Index Report which is included as an appendix of the assessment.

2. E-mailed assessments will not be accepted, except where specifically necessary to fulfill the assessment requirements.

3. Students are advised to keep a full copy of every assignment they submit.

J. Guidance on GradingCourse grades shall be based on results of assessment and examinations, projects and homework assignments, class participation and other factors set by the lecturer. The syllabus for each course provides a detailed illustration of the basis for grading in each course. Students shall receive a preliminary assessment of his/her academic performance in each course in the middle of each semester and the final grade at the end of each semester.To pass a course the aggregate score should be 60 or above. However, a course taken at another institution with a passing grade of P or P+ is not transferable. Transferred students will have to repeat the course at the University of Fujairah.

1. Incomplete (INC). If a student regularly attends classes but he/she fails to submit assessments or attend examinations, he/she will be given an INC.

2. Withdrawn (W). Officially dropped/withdrawn from the course.3. Withdrawn Absent (WA). A 25 percent absent warning and a student

will be administratively dropped/withdrawn from the course and assigned a “WA” grade, which is not calculated into his GPA.

4. Withdrawn Failed (WF). If the student is failing the course at the time of dropping/withdrawing, he/she will be assigned a grade of WF, which will be calculated as a failing grade.

5. Withdrawn Passed (WP). If the student is passing the course at the time of dropping/withdrawal, he/she will be assigned a grade of WP.

6. Failed Absent (FA). If the student stops attending classes without dropping/withdrawing the course, he/she will be given a grade of FA.

7. Transfer Credit (TC). If the student has withdrawn from any program and have applied for re-admission into another program, he/she can be re-admitted as new students with new ID number and courses with C grade or above shall be credited as Transfer Credit (TC) and will appear on his/her transcript.

capstone research project and integrated paper, he/she will be given IP.

L. Minimum Passing Marks

1. Where a specific minimum mark has to be achieved on an assessment component in order to pass a course and/or where this mark may be other than 50%, the percentage value and rationale for this mark must be well justified.

2. To pass a course the aggregate mark should be 60 out of 100.3. The composite mark will comprise two elements: the marks earned in

the final exam plus the marks earned during the semester (including homework, quizzes, midterm exams, projects, and assignments). To pass the course you have to pass the final exam with a mark of at least 50%. Students who obtain a composite mark of greater than 60% but do not satisfy the Final Examination pass requirements will be awarded an F.

M. Feedback Assessment

Feedback is intended to inform students on the progress they have made towards achieving the learning outcomes of a course. Feedback should be constructive, justify the mark and be related to the criteria. It should point students to ways in which they can improve their learning and achievement, and allow them to monitor and evaluate their progress against the course’s and/or course learning outcomes, and graduate attributes. It can be given by a lecturer or tutor, an external assessor, or a student peer. Feedback should be timely and developmental if the learner is to maximize their engagement with course requirements. Such feedback can fall into two broad categories:

1. early in a course, before any formal assessments, to ensure awareness of course requirements and expectations;

2. after each assigned assessment task, but excluding invigilated examinations, so that students have sufficient opportunity to use feedback for improving their performance.

N. Remarking

Students may request that an assessment task be re-marked, in its original form, in circumstances where the student presents a case arguing that the original marking was unfair or inconsistent with marking guidelines. This request must be directly addressed to the Department Chair, with a copy to the concerned Deans, by the student within 10 working days of receipt of the original marked assessment task. It will be the Department Chair’s responsibility to arrange for the re-marking to be done. Only a single re-mark will be permitted, and the result of the re-mark will be recorded as the final mark for that assessment task, irrespective of its position relative to the original mark. If the student remains dissatisfied with the outcome, then normal University procedures for handling appeals will be followed.

O. Integrity of Assessment and Quality Assurance

1. Regardless of the nature of the assessment task, students need to be provided with guidelines that define the scope of responses to the task. These guidelines can be in the form of specific criteria to be addressed and/or standards to be achieved.

2. Moderation processes will be implemented to ensure that the integrity of criteria and/or standards developed by lecturer will be preserved across different markers. It is required where there is an element of subjectivity in the evaluation. It is not necessary for multiple choice assessment tasks or other tasks in which there is no interpretative response by the student. For the purposes of moderation:

a) Criteria are the elements by which the quality of student work is to be judged.

b) Standards describe the levels of achievement to be attained.c) Moderation processes are those processes that ensure a

students’ work can be judged consistently regardless of who marks the task. They will include pre-marking standardization of criteria based on a sample of assignments. The sample size should 10% or 10 assignments whichever is the lesser figure.

EXAMINATION POLICY 1. Final Examinations will be held as stipulated in the Academic Calendar.2. Only students registered for a particular course will be admitted into the

room for the respective final examination. The following students will not be allowed to sit for their final examinations: 1) students exceeded the 25% absence rule, or 2) students who have not paid their tuition fees, or 3) students who have been suspended/dismissed from the University.

3. If a student is unable to sit for an examination due to illness, he/she may apply for an incomplete status. The student must produce an official medical certificate signed by a registered medical practitioner, as well as a letter of approval from the Registrar, before sitting for such an exam. Students should consult the respective faculty member for scheduling the exam.

4. Faculty may examine students using written, practical, or oral tests, by continuous assessment, or by any combination of these.

5. Students who wish to appeal against examination result(s) must complete an Appeal Form and submit this, together with the appropriate fee to the Registration Department within three weeks of the date of announcing the results.

6. If a student has missed an exam for any reason (other than for medical reasons as already noted), he/she may appeal to retake the test or exam if extreme justifying circumstances warrant it. A written student appeal must describe the circumstances which caused the student to miss the examination, and supporting documentation should be provided when appropriate. Copies of the appeal must be sent to the respective faculty member and the Registrar for review and approval.

CURRICULA APPROVAL AND REVISION POLICYStep 1: The first step is a self-study done by the faculty members of the program, based on the information provided by the Executive Director of DQA-IRA.

a) This information includes evaluation of the instructional delivery; evaluation of student portfolios, completion rates; results of surveys of employers: results of student surveys of satisfaction; results of alumni surveys of satisfaction; the success of students who transfer; job placement rates; as well as the information gained from the courses and student learning evaluation process.

b) The review of the remedial program will also include an evaluation of the efficacy of the placement tools in both English and Mathematics in assuring that students have the skills they need to begin collegiate work. An outline for the self-study is found in the Quality Assurance and Institutional Effectiveness Manual.

c) The Vice-Chancellor for Academic Affairs is responsible for revising the outline for the self-study periodically to increase its effectiveness as a tool to review programs. The standards to be addressed will include, at a minimum: success in achieving the goals of the program, the academic advising received by the students, the instructional performance of the faculty, a review of the curriculum, a review of the resources available to the program in library and instructional technology, the achievement of learning outcomes by the graduates, and the success of the graduates in their post-graduate endeavors.

d) The Executive Director of DQA-IRA is responsible for analyzing the information gathered from surveys and making it available to the unit.

Step 2: The second step in the process is a review by a team of external reviewers. The reviewers will receive the self-study in advance and visit the college to verify the statements contained therein. Also, they will review a random sample of student portfolios and reports of integrated projects. They will assess the adequacy of facilities, including the library resources and information technology resources for the program. They will write a report summarizing their findings, which they will submit to the Chancellor.

Step 3: The third step in the process is an internal review by the faculty of the program and by the Vice-Chancellor for Academic Affairs.

a) The faculty of the program, under the direction of the Department Chair or Program Coordinator, will develop a plan to address the problems identified in the self-study and the external reviewers’ report. This plan will include a timetable for each action item, the person responsible, and the resources needed to make the changes.

b) The Dean will review the plan and make modifications as necessary.

c) Annually, the Department Chair or Program Coordinator will report in writing on the progress in implementing the plan. The next self-study will begin with a review of the progress made in implementing the plan over the previous four years.

INTERNSHIP POLICYA. Introduction

The Practicum (Internship) Program at UOF is a continuation of the learning that takes place on campus and is integrated into the curriculum. The students' work experience in internships neatly complements what goes on in UOF highly interactive classrooms. Because students have practice in applying what they learn, they find it easy to move from the classroom to the workplace. UOF prepares its students throughout their study to be successful in their internship. This is achieved in a variety of ways:a. Engaging them in experiential learning activities throughout the

curriculum that precedes the internship.b. No student will be approved to do an internship until he/she

demonstrates a solid foundation in the theory and practice of his/her discipline.

c. Assisting students in the internship placement process by the staff of the University Internship Office.

The UIO also represents the university in local, national and international meetings and events related to student training and development. The UIO provides its services exclusively to students enrolled in the University, prepares a list of training candidates in the respective college and starts contacting companies and organizations to raise training positions for these candidates. The candidates will then be assigned to these training facilities based on factors like geographical location, GPA, field of work, etc.

C. Internship Sites

Internship sites are places (institutions/organizations/companies) in which students undertake internship activities. The following are the basic requirements for the internship: a.

Students may make an appointment by phone or by stopping by the office, or may drop by for a session if a counselor is available.

Individual Counseling

The Center provides short-term individual counseling, typically no more than eight sessions per academic year. In these sessions, student and counselor work together to resolve the student’s concerns and goals.

Workshops and Support Groups

Each semester, the Center offers a schedule of workshops and support groups on topics such as study skills, conflict management, taking tests, managing time, etc. Support groups are offered as needed. Support groups offer a safe place to talk with others who are experiencing similar difficulties; they can help the student to feel supported and understood.

Personal Resource Center

The Center hosts a Personal Resource Center with a library of books, brochures and videos on self-help.

Referral to Community Services

Upon request, the Center will assist student and parent in referring a student to community services if the student needs services that are beyond the resources of the Center to provide. Referral is voluntary and requires the student’s or parents' or guardian’s written approval.

H. Learning/Teaching Methods and Strategies

1. Lectures and discussion will be applied to explain t h e concepts, theories, and principles of the course. This will guide and facilitate the acquisition of knowledge. The focus of the lecture is to guide, explain and facilitate discussions f r o m among t h e students in the class rather than to transmit facts, which can be read from the recommended textbooks and other reading materials. Students are therefore required to do an advance reading to actively participate in the course discussions.

2. Seminars will be intensively employed as interactive sessions conducted by students. It is designed to allow students to test their understanding of the materials covered in lectures and students’ study.

3. Case Study and Problem-solving allow students to apply the concepts; tools and techniques of analysis learned and apply them to real business problems. The case study serves as a supplement to the theoretical knowledge covered during lectures. Also, case studies will help students understand principles, concepts, and theories more effectively.

4. The workshop, Group Work and Assignments will be used to help students work in small groups and encourages group learning. This methodology provides opportunities for independent learning, creative thinking, debate, and discussions amongst members of the group to provide an opportunity for students to develop depth in the understanding of the concepts, theories, and principles of the course.

5. For problem- solving, research, analysis and evaluation skills the heuristic teaching methods are applied. The main advantage of this methodology is that it encourages students to learn, discover,

74

understand, or solve problems on their own, by experimenting and evaluating possible answers or solutions or by trial and error. Case studies, workgroup (teams), and active participation represent the main tools or instruments applied in this program to realize the major objective: enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

I. Course Assessment Strategy

1. To comply with the QF-Emirates (Level 9) and to assure originality and advanced knowledge and skills, students’ assessment strategy of individual courses is designed such that the research component of the program is correctly addressed. This strategy is based on in-depth and comprehensive written assignments (3 assignments on average). Each student (or team) must submit written reports based on projects and cases. 7 5 % of the total marks are assigned for these assignments. Reports must reflect the ability of students to present advanced knowledge and skills in the form of research papers. These research papers include analysis, evaluation, and innovation encompassing complex ideas, information, concepts, theories and own ideas, critique, and synthesis.

2. The final exam is assigned 25% of the total marks. 3. Class presentation, oral tests, class participation, and short written

tests will not be assigned separate marks. They are designed to direct students on how to conduct major assignments/research papers and cases. Therefore, their marks will be combined with those of major assignments.

4. As far as learning outcomes are concerned, the assessment strategy covers major components of learning outcomes of a master degree, namely:

a) The advanced, comprehensive and specialized knowledgeb) Problem-solving skillsc) Synthesis and critiqued) Communication skillse) Integrationf) Managing ethical and leadership issuesg) Research

The university requires that its graduate students have a CPGA of at least 3.0 for graduation. Courses can be repeated to raise the CGPA to 3.0 or above. A student can repeat up to 3 courses. The same course can be taken up to 3 times. If a student repeats an identical course and achieves a higher grade, the new/higher grade will supersede the previous grade in the Cumulative GPA (CGPA) and the original lower grade will not be included in the Cumulative GPA (CGPA). It should be noted that the higher grade (of the two attempts on the course) issued for the CGPA calculation, but both grades are recorded and appear on the academic transcript. The following rules shall be applied:

a) A core course with an ‘F’ grade must be repeated immediately during the next semester.

b) An elective course with an ‘F’ grade can either be re-taken or another elective course may be taken to fulfill the elective requirement.

c) Remedial courses (e.g. pre-MBA courses) do not carry credit towards the graduate degree but require a passing grade of “P”.

d) A grade of “B” or higher must be earned for all graduate coursework transferred from another institution.

4. Probationary University Standing

If a student fails to achieve a minimum CGPA of 3.0 or above at the end of the semester, he/she will be put on Academic Warning List.

Failure to do this within the first two weeks of the probationary semester will result in the cancellation of course registration for that current semester. During the ‘probationary’ semester, the student must achieve the specified grades that will result in Clear University Standing to advance to the next semester. Students with a total of three failing grades in the same course will be dismissed from the program.

scale, and the minimum cumulative grade point average acceptable for transfer is 3.0 (B) on a 4.0 scale.

Program StructureThe Nursing program offers two streams leading to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN):

a) the undergraduate stream open to high school graduates, andb) the bridging stream open to nurses with a diploma degree in nursing.

The BSN program combines theory, labs, and practice to prepare nurses to work in a wide variety of settings, including hospitals, clinics, schools, and communities. Following is a description of the program structure for both streams. The curriculum’s report includes details of the Undergraduate program’s structure and course sequence (study/academic plan) for both the undergraduate (post-high school) and bridging (post nursing diploma) streams.

2. Program Structure for BSN – Bridging ProgramThe bridging program curriculum does not require GR courses and the pre-requisites are exempted since the selection of the courses is based on the student’s preference and the academic advising which is feasible for a bridging program. According to the CAA standard, the students must complete at least 50% of the total credit hours for graduation, therefore, the bridging plan includes 66 credit hours. Students under the bridging program should meet the university admission requirement in addition to being an active Nursing Practice License from MOH/DHA/HAAD.
