VI. MAJOR CURRICULAR REQUIREMENTS
The three Technology Department undergraduate programs, Aviation, Fire and Industrial Technology, provide students with basic knowledge, training, discipline, and skills, as defined by their Program Student Learning Outcomes. Each of the programs are primarily 2+2 programs Through its upper division required courses, the curriculum builds upon the fundamental principles taught at community colleges. Through its upper division technical electives, students gain additional breadth and/or depth in computer science by an appropriate selection of courses.

1. 
   Aviation Administration Lower Division Major classes
   

The following majors are acceptable for meeting the 32 quarter units lower division major requirements:

Accounting, Aviation Administration, Aviation Maintenance Technician, Business, Civil Engineering, Commercial Flight, Communication Studies, Computer Information Systems, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Economics, English, Finance, Fire Protection, Flight Attendant, Geography, Industrial Technology, Management, Marketing, Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering, Political Science.

2. 
   Aviation Administration Upper Division Required Courses
   

* An average GPA of 2.0 or better is required for a student to remain in good standing.
(b) List of elective courses
Students select 4 additional upper division Aviation Administration courses from a list of courses described below.



c) Option

Students must also choose an option (see below) and take 8 units from five alternate areas. This also includes the option of taking another 8 units of aviation administration classes from the list above.

VII. GRADUATION ROAD MAPS

Graduation Roadmaps are suggested academic plans designed to inform students about the sequence of courses needed to satisfy degree requirements. The roadmaps adhere strictly to the prerequisites and scheduling patterns of the courses.

1. Plan #1: Roadmaps for Freshmen

This roadmap is described for students who enter Cal State LA directly from high school as freshmen. It assumes that the freshmen students do not need any remedial Mathematics or English courses.

This ideal roadmap provides a pathway for students to complete their undergraduate requirements in four years. It is assumed that students will not be taking summer quarter classes although they are free to do so if classes are available.

 

2. Plan #2: Roadmaps for Transfer Students

This roadmap is described for students who transfer to Cal State LA directly from another institute of higher education. The plan assumes that the students have entered Cal State LA with completion of all lower division GE requirements and all lower division major requirements.

This ideal roadmap provides a pathway for students to complete their remaining undergraduate requirements in two years with 90 (180 total) quarter units.

 

3. Plan #3: Individualized Roadmap

It is a fact that every student's situation is unique. Therefore, the roadmaps described above should be used as guides. Note the following two characteristics described in the above described roadmaps:

1. 
   The roadmaps describe the suggested plan of study (by year and quarter term) for students assuming that a student plans for the regular Fall, Winter and Spring quarters. i.e., These roadmaps do not include courses during the Summer Quarter. This leaves the option for students to take classes during the Summer Quarter to finish earlier or to reduce the number of units per quarter.
   
2. 
   The roadmaps are designed for individuals who are devoting full-time to their studies and thus taking a full load of 16 units per quarter.
   

It is essential that every student should see a faculty member for academic advisement and design an individualized roadmap. This should be updated if any situation changes down the road.
 

Year #1	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

 

Year #2	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

Year #3	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

Year #4	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

Year #5	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

Year #6	Summer	Fall	Winter	Spring

VIII. APPLYING FOR GRADUATION
Certifying that a student has met all graduation requirements is a simple but functional process as described below:

1. 
   Students initiate this process by filling out an Application for Graduation (degree check) on a form available at the Cal State L.A. Graduation Office website, and Enrollment Services in Administration 146. These forms are available five days prior to the application filing period. (Filing periods are published in the Graduation information section of the Schedule of Classes.). The application fee is $30. ($20 for the application and $10 for the Diploma).
   
2. 
   The application is to be filed two quarters prior to the end of the term of their graduation. Students are able to access their Academic Requirements Report at any time thorough their college career. The Academic Requirements Report (an audit report generated on GET) gives a visually clear picture of the requirements; completed requirements; transfer credits etc.. Students thus have a general idea of the graduating quarter and discuss the program requirements with the advisor.
   
3. 
   Students submit their completed application to the Department for processing. The undergraduate faculty advisor discusses the Academic Progress Report with the student which indicates clearly all the requirements that have been completed and flags the remaining requirements. The student and advisor draw up a plan to meet the remaining requirements in the coming two quarters.
   
4. 
   The Department staff then forwards the graduation application to the Graduation Office for an official audit.
   
5. 
   The Graduation Office of the University Registrar’s Office has the sole authority to audit and certify that a candidate for graduation has fulfilled her/his approved program requirements. Graduation check audit results are sent by surface mail to the students prior to their final anticipated quarter. Students who are enrolled in the quarter they expect to graduate but do not complete all degree requirements will have their graduation application automatically transferred to the following quarter.
   
6. 
   Students who do not finish their requirements by the end of the second quarter must consult with the advisor and restart the graduation application procedure.
   
7. 
   Degree dates are posted at the end of the quarter in which all requirements are met. On completion of the degree requirements, the transcripts on GET indicate the following:
   

Degree : Bachelor of Science

Confer Date : xxxx-xx-xx

Plan : Aviation Administration
IX. ACADEMIC STANDARDS
As a student, you are now joining an academic community. Along with the privileges of membership go certain obligations. Academic Integrity is very important. Cheating will not be tolerated. Cheating on any assignment or exam will be taken seriously. Failure to meet established standards may result in various penalties. In extreme cases this could result in expulsion from the University.
We hope that behavior standards never become and issue, but it is important that you prove worthy of the trust we place you in. Honesty is extremely important both for the operation of the University and for your personal development.
