Unit Transition Guide
for Jepson Students and Advisors

In fall 2007, the Jepson faculty approved several curricular changes in response to the university’s adoption of the unit system. Because many students entered the Jepson School under the old curriculum, these changes will be gradually instituted.

What does this mean for individual students?

If you are in the class of 2009, the curricular changes should have no effect on the requirements you must meet to graduate with a Jepson degree. Given the sequencing of courses, you should have only LDST 450 Leadership Ethics and, perhaps, one or more advanced courses to complete. Class of 2009 Major and Minor Requirements

If you are in the class of 2010, the curricular changes will have the following effect on the requirements you must meet to graduate with a Jepson degree. Majors should take LDST 249 Research Methods (or approved substitute) instead of LDST 389 Research Methods, and majors will now be required to take four advanced courses, as opposed to five advanced courses.
