Note: Students using Philosophy 2660E to meet module requirements need only take an additional 0.5 Religious Studies course at the 2200 level or above. If both Religious Studies 3300F/G and Philosophy 2660E are taken, Philosophy 2660E may still be counted as a Religious Studies course at the 2200 level.

* All students pursuing an Honors Specialization or Major module in Catholic Studies for Teachers will be expected to complete field placements in second and third year. Credit for these two 0.25 credit service learning courses will be evaluated on a PASS/FAIL basis.
Religious Studies 2208U: Catholic Education (1) in second year.
Religious Studies 3308U: Catholic Education (2) in third year.

In addition to completing the module requirements noted above, students must successfully complete courses to support a second teachable subject area, with a minimum average of 75% on these courses, with no course grade less than 60%.

Graduation Requirements
Graduation will require a minimum average of 75% in both the Honors Specialization in Catholic Studies for Teachers and the course group supporting the second teachable subject, with no mark below 60% in any course. Meeting the graduation requirements for this program will guarantee acceptance into the BEd Intermediate/Senior program at the Faculty of Education at The University of Western Ontario with Religious Education as a teachable subject.

Students who fall short of the requirements in this program may meet the requirements for an Honors Bachelor Degree with either an Honors Specialization in Catholic Studies or a double Major including a Major in Catholic Studies, or a Four-Year Bachelor's Degree with a Catholic Studies module, and may apply to the Faculty of Education on that basis. These modules offer students an excellent preparation for studies at Faculties of Education where Religious Education (as taught in Roman Catholic schools) is offered as a teachable subject, but do not guarantee admission to the Faculty of Education at The University of Western Ontario.
