Dean's List. The dean's list recognizes current
academic achievement. The list is published at the end of each term for
full-time students and in August for part-time students. Full-time
students are eligible if they have completed 12 or more credits for
numerical grade credit with a term grade-point average of 3.5 or
better. Part-time students are eligible if they have completed 12 or
more credits during the preceding academic year for numerical grade
credit with a grade-point average of 3.5 or better.
Honors Thesis Option.
School
of Business-Camden students with a grade-point average of 3.3 or above
may be eligible to undertake an honors thesis. This involves in-depth
study in the student's major area under the supervision of a faculty
thesis adviser. This project usually is carried out during the
student's two senior terms. The student who completes an acceptable
honors thesis receives 6 course credits and graduates with "Thesis
Distinction."
The thesis must involve the comprehension of
academic literature, data collection or a systematic theoretical
analysis, and the writing of an academic research paper. The thesis
must be approved by both the student's thesis adviser and a second
School of Business faculty member. In addition, all honors thesis
students must give a presentation on the results of their projects to
the faculty and students.
Business Leader Development Program (BLDP).
The BLDP provides recognition for exceptional leadership activities
during a student's time at the School of Business-Camden. Our goal is
to identify "high-potential" students, who are then eligible for
special seminar classes and a variety of other opportunities.
Individuals who demonstrate ongoing leadership, both in and outside the
school (accumulated and verified as "leadership units"), receive
recognition at graduation and a notation of program completion under
"Honors" on their transcript.
