Computing the Engineering Content
Calendar Weight and Refined Weight
for a non-E&CE course
Here is how you compute the engineering content
calendar weight
and
refined weight
for a course.
Look up the following information for the course
on the E&CE FAQ page
. Contact
E&CE Undergraduate Advisor
in CEIT-3032 519-888-4567x3331 if the course weights you require are missing.
engineering design AUs (Let this be
x
).
engineering science AUs (Let this be
y
).
total AUs assigned to the course (Let this be
z
).
actual
class hours per week (Let this be
C
).
actual
tutorial hours per week (Let this be
T
).
actual
lab hours per week (Let this be
L
).
The
calendar weight
is
(x + y) / z
.
The
refined weight
is
(1*C + 0.25*T + 0.5*L) * (x + y) / z
.
