Auditing Your Program Offerings
Run the PeopleSoft query SR_CLASS_CREDIT_HOURS and compare the Total Minutes calculated by the report to the Units Earned column. Comparisons should meet or exceed the totals illustrated in the table above.
Some cautionary notes about the results delivered by the PeopleSoft report.
- Sections that have multiple meeting schedules are not displayed as a single occurrance on the report. You must total up the minutes reported for each meeting cycle to determine the total number of minutes for the course.
- Courses that are classified as practica, internships, independent study, and other non-classroom activities may or may not yield complete meeting time results.
It is important that for all courses that do not meet the required minimum meeting times, the offering department or program must have a reasonable rationale to justify the awarding of the indicated credits. Such reasons may include the expectation of a minimum number of hours of individual research, internship, or other activity.
