Schedule & Registration for P6 & P7

Posted on by

Registration for P6 & P7 (Sept – Dec 2013) will open for FT and PT MBA students on Wednesday July 17th at 3:30pm and is on a first-come-first served basis. We will send you a reminder closer to this date.

You can register for modules by logging into the SSC with your CWL: https://ssc.adm.ubc.ca/sscportal/servlets/SRVSSCFramework. If you haven’t logged into the SSC lately please do so in advance of the registration date, as there have been changes to the look and layout of the SSC and you will likely find it helpful to familiarize yourself with the changes prior to needing to register.

We will begin registering incoming exchange students in MBA modules on Monday July 29th. Please ensure you make your initial registration choices prior to that date.

If a module is FULL please email askmba@sauder.ubc.ca in order to be placed on the waiting list.

Schedule
You will find the FT MBA P6 & P7 schedule, as well as the PT MBA Cohort 10 Year 2 schedule on the Current Students section of the website, under the Schedule tab: http://www.sauder.ubc.ca/Programs/MBA/MBA_Full_Time/Current_Students. FT MBA students can take PT MBA modules provided there is space, and can self-register via the SSC. If a PT MBA module is FULL please email askmba@sauder.ubc.ca in order to be placed on the waiting list.

Career Track Requirements Sheets
Please review the Career Track Requirements sheets when making your registration choices in order to ensure that you will meet the requirements for your track.

Cherry is working on updating the Career Track Requirements sheets on the Current Students website, under the FT MBA Track Requirements tab here: http://www.sauder.ubc.ca/Programs/MBA/MBA_Full_Time/Current_Students. Attached are the BINV and FIN sheets, which had the only changes since the last round.

Summary of changes to track requirements & scheduling for P6 & P7 compared to what was posted last year:

  • Removed: BAEN 580A Special Topics in Entrepreneurship, BAFI 523 New Venture Valuation, BAHR 510 Strategic Human Resource Management, BAMA 501 Pricing and Revenue Management, BAMA 518 Sales Management
  • Added: BAHR 520 Managing the Employment Relationship, BAMA 580D Strategic Management of Customer Relationships, BAHR 507 Negotiations
  • Moved: BASC 524 Supply Chain Analytics is now in P7, BAMS 523 Managerial Decision Modeling and Analytics is now in P6, BAFI 532 is now in P6, BAFI 509 is now in P7
  • BINV Track Elective list: BAMA 580D Strategic Management of Customer Relationships was added to the BINV elective list.
  • FIN Track Elective list: moved BAFI 532 to P6 and BAFI 509 to P7

B-Clinic
Students will be able to apply for a 1.5 credit B-Clinic Project in early September, and there will likely be a marketplace event in the 1st week of September in order to showcase which projects are available. Please note that a B-Clinic Project does count for 1.5 credits in your MBA Elective category – this credit will be applied for P7, since the bulk of your work on the project will take place during that time.

Overloading
Students wishing to overload in P6 must have a cumulative grade point average of at least 80% in the Post-IF modules. The online request form can be found here: https://secure.sauder.ubc.ca/mba/overload_request/overload_request.cfm

Module Outlines
We are updating these on the website as instructors send them to us, but have left last year’s outlines up for those that haven’t been updated yet for your reference. Please check the dates to confirm what year’s outline you are looking at! If the new outline is not available but it is the same module and instructor from last year, the currently posted outline will likely be very similar to the new outline, so you can use it for reference. If it’s a new module or a different instructor please don’t rely on the posted outline – if you need more information please contact the instructor listed on the P6 &P7 schedule directly with your questions.

Make-up Classes
There are a number of make-up classes scheduled in P6 & P7 – these are listed at the bottom of each page on the FT MBA P6 & P7 schedule. Please check these when making your registration decisions as make-up classes do not necessarily take place during usual class hours. Additional make-up classes may also be added at a later date.

Dropping Modules
Students may drop modules WITHOUT a “W” standing after no more than 4 hours of teaching (usually 1 week of classes)

  • Students who withdraw after receiving between 4hrs – 8hrs teaching will receive a “W” standing on their transcript.  A “W” standing does not affect grade point average
  • Students who withdraw after more than 8hrs teaching will receive a standing of “F” on their transcript. A standing of “F” affects grade point average.
  • If you are trying to decide between two modules please attend both the first week of class and then make your decision so you don’t miss out on important information. Please be aware that some instructors form groups in the first class, so the sooner you can finalize your schedule the better in order to not disrupt groups in the modules.

Exam Period
The exam schedule will be released via the blogs in week 2 or 3 of each Period.  Students are not permitted to reschedule exams for any reason (other than medical).  Please keep this in mind when being asked to interview for positions during exam week – interviewers are generally flexible and can reschedule the interview time if you notify them that you have an exam. The BCC staff can also help negotiate different interview times if you notify them of your dilemma. The full exam policy can be found on Vista (in the Policies folder).

Advising
If you have any questions about registration please contact askmba@sauder.ubc.ca and if you require academic advising for your program planning for P6 & P7 please contact Theresa Scott (theresa.scott@sauder.ubc.ca) directly.
