The University Written English (W) and Mathematics (M) Requirement for Undergraduate Students

All students are required to complete, within the first 60 credit hours of their programs, a minimum of one three credit hour course with significant content in written English, and a minimum of one three credit hour course with significant content in mathematics.

The link at the bottom of this message will direct you to an important survey that is designed to help improve the quality of undergraduate education at the University of Manitoba. We are two student representatives on a University Senate Subcommittee looking at how the M and W requirements can be improved and your opinion as an undergraduate student is crucial for our results. We are making a student-to-student appeal to ask you to complete the survey in order to give students a voice.

As identifiers are NOT collected, your responses will be anonymous and kept confidentially secure, so please feel free to be completely honest.

By participating in this survey, you are consenting to having your responses used by the University of Manitoba.

If you have any questions about the survey itself or are having technical issues, please send an email with the subject heading 'M & W requirement' to Brett Kolesnik at umkolesb@cc.umanitoba or Angela Tittle at tittleam@cc.umanitoba.ca.

Please complete the survey by December 1, 2010.
