Appendix: Elective Timeslots

1.0 Introduction

The University of Technology, Jamaica (UTech) offers its students some choice in the modules they pursue in their courses of study. The
choices are called electives.

Over time, it is anticipated that students will have increasing flexibility in the selection of modules in their courses of study to enable them
to tailor their studies to meet their professional goals and career aspirations as well as their special interests.

This current University Electives Handbook provides information on the University Electives Policy (passed by the Academic Board in
October 2005) and lists the University Elective choices available to students enrolled in Diploma and Undergraduate degrees. The fact that
you have received a copy of this Handbook indicates that you are among the students eligible to take a University Elective in the Summer
Session of Academic Year 2006-07 and/or Academic Year 2007-08.

This Handbook is also available online when you register for your University elective(s) in e-Vision.

2.0 What is an elective?

An elective is a module that eligible students choose to take from among a specified list of alternatives. This opportunity for module
selection is in contrast to the required modules, which are the majority of the modules in students’ courses of study.

All undergraduate courses of study – no matter what the Faculty – contain at least one and as many as two University electives. Successful
completion of the elective module(s) is a requirement for course completion and graduation.

The reason for including electives in courses is to offer students greater flexibility in customising their studies to suit their needs and
interests.

3.0 Are there different kinds of electives at the University of Technology, Jamaica?
Yes. UTech has three kinds of electives. They are as follows:

o Specialisation electives – These are modules contained in a course of study that allow the student some degree of choice that will
assist in his or her career direction. For example, the School of Engineering, the School of Computing and Information Technology,
and the School of Business Administration all offer the students a choice of specialisation electives in Years 3 and/or 4. These
electives are offered by and managed in the School.

o Humanities electives – Some courses of study offer students a choice of the Humanities module(s) they can take. The electives
menu from which the students choose is organised by the Department of Liberal Studies on behalf of the School, and may include
foreign languages, Ethics, Philosophy, History, Literature and/or Caribbean Cultural Expressions. Students timetabled for a
Humanities elective in their course diet must choose from among the Humanities offerings available to their School to fulfil this
course requirement for graduation. Both the School of Engineering and the School of Business Administration have Humanities
electives as a component of their undergraduate degrees in Years 1 and/or 2. These Humanities electives are NOT scheduled within
the University elective time slots, however. The choice available will depend on the number of students timetabled to take
Humanities electives. Students do NOT choose their Humanities elective course(s) through the University elective registration
system.

o University electives – All undergraduate degree courses of study and the Diplomas in the School of Engineering contain University
electives in Years 3 and/or 4. B. Sc. (CIT) and the B. Pharm. students pursue a University elective in Year 2 of their course of study.

A University elective is a module that is open to students across the University, usually without prerequisites (there are a few exceptions to
this regulation, however). These modules may already be offered as part of specific courses of study, or may be specially designed as
University elective offerings. They may even be modules designed for the general student population at their request.

University electives include personal development electives like Sports, Clothing Management, and Interior Decorating; a variety of
Humanities and Communication electives; Sports; special interest modules in the Arts (Dance, Drama, Vocal Music, 2D/3D Design, and
Art and Design), and modules in Health, Science, Social Sciences, Built Environment, IT,
and Business.

4.0 Where is the University Electives Policy managed – and what does this mean?

The University Electives Administrator in each School manages University Electives registration for students in that School. The Office of
Curriculum Development and Evaluation (OCDE) oversees and co-ordinates the registration process and trouble-shoots major problems.

Students should note the registration process carefully:


o All registration for University electives will be completed on line through e-Vision.
o Registration for the Summer Session 2006/07 will take place in mid-February 2007. Students may change their choice until the end
of the first week in March, 2007. Summer Session University elective registration will end on March 9, 2007.
o University Electives registration for Academic Year 2007/08 will begin March 15-16 2007 at the Electives Fair and continue until
April 20, 2007.
o Students may change their choice of University elective for Academic Year (AY) 2007/08 only up until mid-April AY 2006/07. You
may not change the University Elective in which you registered for AY2007/08 after April 20, 2007.
o New students entering the University for the first time in Semester 1 of AY 2007/08 will choose their University electives at
registration in August 2007.
o Students may register in University Electives offered in their own School, provided that they have any required prerequisites, and that
the selected module is not already required as part of their course diet.
o Traditionally popular electives will reserve two places for students who are required to take a University elective in one or more of
the instructional periods in AY 2007/08 and are entering the University for the first time in Semester 1 AY 2007/08.

5.0 How do I register in my University Elective?

You are required to register for your University Elective on line through e-Vision.

If you are eligible to take a University Elective in the Summer Session AY 2006/07 or one of the next three instructional periods, you may
select from among the University Electives included in the list in this Handbook. The text of this document is also available on e-Vision
when you register.
Each School/Department has a designated University Electives Administrator, who is available to assist you with any queries/problems
with University Electives registration.

The University Electives Administrator in your School/Department and/or Programme Director will inform you of the semester and time
slot in which you are scheduled to take a University elective. When you enter the University electives registration section of e-Vision, you
will see the full menu of University electives from which you may make your choice and in which you may register.

Follow these steps to register in your choice of University elective:

Step 1: Determine your timeslot and semester Find out in which time slot and semester you have been scheduled to take a University
elective from your University Electives Administrator or Programme Director.

Step 2: Obtain and read the available information on University Electives


Read the University Electives Handbook Instructional Periods Summer Session 2006/07 – AY 2007-08 carefully to determine what modules
are offered in your time slot and semester.

Step 3: Visit the offering Faculty’s booth at the Electives Fair in March 15-16 2007
Each Faculty will have a booth in which persons will be available to discuss the elective(s) the Faculty is offering in the next Academic
Year. Some Faculties may even invite students who have taken their electives to discuss the offerings with interested students.

Step 4: Choose the module you want to take – Select the module(s) in which you are interested from those available in your assigned time
slot. Make a note of the University elective module(s) by name, module code and time slot in order of preference. Please note that not all
modules are offered across all time slots and semesters. You can take only an elective offered in the timeslot in which you are timetabled to
take your University Elective. You may review the offerings either in the Handbook or on-line.

Step 5: Pre-register for your University Elective in the same way you do for all other modules in your course of study.
You will be able to register for your University Elective at the Electives Fair at any of the Faculty booths. Following the Electives Fair,
you may register through e-Vision. From the list of available choices offered in your timeslot and semester, enter your first choice. You
must confirm your selection to have it register on your diet. If there is space available in your first choice elective, you will be confirmed
immediately.

If the elective is already full, you will be prompted to enter a second choice from the list of available University electives. If space is
available in your second choice, your registration in that elective will be confirmed immediately.

If both the first and second choices are filled, you will be so informed and asked to make another choice. Repeat the selection process until
you are confirmed in a University elective that has available space.

Step 6: Document your registration in the module


When you are confirmed in an elective, make certain to PRINT a copy of the page with the module name and code confirmation and keep
it for your records. Please note that you will NOT be able to print this confirmation at the Electives Fair. You will need to go to a computer
lab to print your confirmation, even though you have registered at the Electives Fair.

Each module has an established maximum number of students permitted to enrol in it ranging from 8 to 25 students. Please note that no
module will be offered that has fewer than 10 students enrolling in it unless it is specifically designed for a lesser number.

Note, too, that although each elective has a cap on the enrolment, spaces will be reserved for students who are coming to the campus for
the first time either in the Summer Session or August AY 2007/08 Therefore, each elective will appear to be full when the reserve cap has
been reached.

6.0 How do I retain my place in the elective I have selected?

Once you have registered and been confirmed in an elective, the module will appear on your course diet and your name will be printed on
the Class List for that module in the designated semester.

7.0 What do I do if the module I want to


take is not offered in the time slot in which I am scheduled to take my University elective?
While there is a diversity of modules offered as University electives, not all of them can be offered in every semester or every time slot.
Therefore, unfortunately, you will have to choose another University Elective.

Elective registration will open on the first day of the University Electives Fair.

9.0 When will the University Elective registration process end?

AY 2007/08 will be generated for each University Elective by the end of April 2007, when University Electives registration is complete
except for the new students entering in Semester 1 of the next Academic Year.

11.0 How many University Electives may I


take in a semester?

You can be enrolled in only ONE University Elective in a semester. For the most part, University Electives are timetabled in succeeding
years in courses that have two University Electives in their diets.

12.0 May I change the University Elective I initially selected?

Yes. You may change the University Elective you selected up until April 20, 2007 by completing an Add/Drop Form available from the
University Electives Administrator in your School/ Department in triplicate. Submit the completed signed and stamped Add/Drop form to
University Records, retaining one copy for yourself. You cannot register in an alternative University elective that is not available in your
assigned time slot, or that is already full.

13.0 How will I know if there is still space available in a University Elective?

The list of University electives and the number of remaining spaces available in each elective will be available on line to assist you when
you are selecting your University elective. Make certain to check the available spaces in the module when you are registering.
