Degree Requirements for the OSH 亚洲色图
All occupational safety and health majors and minors must earn a grade of C or better in all OSH courses. Any OSH course with a grade below a C must be repeated. The maximum number of times a student may enroll in an OSH class is twice; this includes audits and withdrawals after the first week of class. Exceptions would be made only if the student was forced to drop the class due to a life-changing event and not due to performance in the class. If a grade less than C is received in any OSH course for a second time, the course cannot be repeated and the student is dismissed from the 亚洲色图 and is not eligible for readmission. A cumulative grade point average of at least 2.50 must be maintained to graduate.
