There is no complementary discipline in the Arts and Sciences (700.A0) andLiberal Arts (700.B0) programs.Complementary Courses:Students must complete 2 courses from the following 5 domains outside theirSpecific Education component:– Art & Aesthetics– Mathematics Literacy and Computer Science(Computer Science only)– Modern Languages– Science and Technology– Social ScienceIf these 2 courses come from the same domain, they must be from different sets, (forexample in Modern Languages, a student can choose GERMAN-LAL and GERMAN-LBL but not 2 courses with the same middle letter such as SPANISH- LAL andGERMAN-LAL).In order to graduate, students must successfully complete the following:• English Exit Examination• Comprehensive Assessment (épreuve synthèse)26
English Language andLiterature (603)All students are required to take fourEnglish courses, one from each offour categories. The courses aresequenced and students must pass acourse in one category before movingon to the next category. In their firstterm, incoming students are requiredto take a course, entitled Introductionto College English (I.C.E., 603-101).In the second semester, they will takea course from the Literary Genres(603-102) category. The thirdsemester will offer them a coursefrom the Literary Themes (603-103)category. When they have successfullycompleted 603-101, 603-102 and603-103, students are eligible to takethe English Exit Exam. All studentsmust pass this provincial exam tograduate and obtain a DEC. Shouldstudents not be successful in passingthis exam in their first attempt, theycan retake the exam the followingsemester. The fourth and final Englishcourse is one from Courses Adapted toProgram (603-LPE).A variety of courses in all fourcategories are offered each term. Allcourses are designed to provide studentswith a background in literatureand to promote the development ofthinking and communication skills. Itis the goal of the English Departmentto ensure that when students leave<strong>Marianopolis</strong>, they have the necessaryskills and knowledge to functionsuccessfully both at university, andin the world at large.Preparatory English(ENG-002)603-002-06, 3.33 creditsThis preparatory course, for studentswho require particular help in thedevelopment of their basic Englishskills, is a credited course that doesnot count towards a DEC. Studentsare placed in this course during theirfirst term at the College, if the resultson their English Placement Test(generally taken after admission hasbeen granted, in May) indicate thatthey would have difficulty copingwith the academic workload of theCollege as a result of their limitedEnglish skills. The course is takenin conjunction with 603-101 duringthe autumn session. Admission to603-102, in the second semester,is contingent upon successfulcompletion of both 603-002 and603-101. The focus of this course ison understanding and using Englishfor <strong>Academic</strong> Purposes. Consequently,this is not a “literature-based” course,but one which aims at helping studentsdevelop the skills they require to succeedin all of their academic courses.The goal of this course is to helpstudents develop a better understandingof how skills in written and oralEnglish are essential to their academicsuccess in an anglophone college.Introduction to College English603-101-MQ (2-2-4) 2.66 credits- 4 hours of class- 4 hours of homeworkThe focus of these courses is onhelping the student make thetransition to college-level studies bydeveloping the student’s ability toread, think and write clearly andeffectively. Through the study of atleast two literary genres—i.e.,poetry,short story, novel, essay, orGeneral Education: Englishdrama—students are encouraged todevelop their confidence and abilityto understand and analyze what theyread, and to express that understandingorally and in writing. By the endof their course, students should beable to write a carefully-planned,clearly-worded, well-organized andconvincingly-argued essay (750 wordsin length). The majority of courses inthis category fall under the designationI.C.E.: Literature.There is, however, a group of coursesdesignated I.C.E.: Composition andLiterature. These courses servestudents who need more intensivepractice in the development oftheir English language skills. Forthis reason, there is an even greateremphasis in I.C.E.: Composition andLiterature on the practical aspects ofreading, speaking and writing – withintegrated Learning Resource Centresupport from English monitors andPeer tutors. Sutdents are assignedplacement in these courses basedupon the results of their EnglishPlacement Test.Sample courses from the variouscategories (102, 103, LPE) are listedbelow.
