The Dhillon School of Business and the Faculty of Education jointly offer a 35-course (105.0 credit hour) Combined Degrees program leading to the degrees Bachelor of Management (B.Mgt.) and Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.). The Combined Degrees program may be completed in 35 courses (105.0 credit hours) when the General Management major is chosen for the B.Mgt. degree. Students who choose to complete a different Management major may be required to extend their programs beyond 35 courses.

Students begin the Pre-Post-Diploma B.Mgt./B.Ed. program in the Dhillon School of Business. After completion of one or two terms, including Education 2500, students must apply for admission to the Faculty of Education. Students are not officially in the Post-Diploma B.Mgt./B.Ed. Combined Degrees program until they have been admitted to both the Dhillon School of Business and the Faculty of Education. Enrolment in both the Dhillon School of Business and the Faculty of Education is limited and fulfillment of the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission to the Combined Degrees program.

Upon successful completion of the Combined Degrees program, the student receives the B.Mgt. degree from the Dhillon School of Business and the B.Ed. degree from the Faculty of Education.
Special Criteria/Circumstances Students should be aware that these are the requirements for admission only to the Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management program. Each major has prerequisites which should be met with GPRC's Business Administration (Marketing) Diploma. If not, students may be required to extend their program beyond the 20 courses. It is strongly recommended that students contact an Academic Advisor when program planning.
