TRANSFERS BETWEEN THE TWO GRADUATE PROGRAMS

Students wishing to transfer from one program to another can do so after departmental approval and can be given credit for courses already passed that fall within the requirements of the other program. Transfers between the two programs are permitted subject to the following:

Students enrolled in the MAE program who wish to transfer to the MAFE program will be given credit for:

- ECON 305 and ECON 328 if completed prior to the transfer. Both courses are required under the MAFE program.
- two other graduate courses completed under the MAE program, which may be considered as elective courses allowed under the MAFE program. With the above courses completed, this would leave 21 credits of additional required course work (plus the project) that would be need to be completed to graduate with an MAFE.

Any incomplete courses among the above-mentioned would need to be completed. The elective course(s) to be completed will be chosen in consultation with the student adviser.

Students enrolled in the MAFE program who wish to transfer to the MAE program will have to complete ECON 317 and ECON 327. ECON 305 and ECON 328: if completed prior to the transfer, they will constitute part of the course requirements towards the MAE. With the completion of these four courses, the transferring student will need to complete an additional 12 credits of course work chosen from the course offerings under the MAE program, plus the thesis.

If neither ECON 305 nor ECON 328 had been completed under the MAFE program prior to the transfer, then, in addition to ECON 317 and ECON 327, another 18 credits of course work will have to be completed chosen from courses under the MAE program, for a total of 24 credits plus a thesis.

In case either ECON 305 or ECON 328 had been completed prior to the transfer, then in addition to ECON 317 and ECON 327, an additional 21 credits will be required for a total of 24 credits plus a thesis.
