C. Complaints Relating to Individual Course Instructors A student who has a grievance relating to a course instructor (e.g. unsatisfactory teaching, unsatisfactory relationship with the course instructor) may follow these steps: 1. Raise concern with the course instructor as soon as the problem or difficulty arises. Most grievances can be resolved amicably and quickly in this manner. The student may take the matter directly to the Head of Department if need be. 2. Concerns related to an instruct or that cannot be resolved at Step 1 should be discussed with the Head of Department (or Faculty Dean, if the Department Head is the instructor, or DVC/ AA if the Dean is instructor). 3. If the complaint is not resolved at Step 2 above, the student may follow the Steps as in 1.3 through 1.5 under Section 1 above. The complaint review process is accomplished in a collegial nonjudicial atmosphere rather than an adversarial one and allows the parties involved to participate as appropriate. Complaints must be raised and resolved promptly and as soon as they arise during the course of the year. The student and instructor may enlist the aid of a neutral third party (e.g. counsellor, academic advisor) to assist.

The minor projects shall account for 50 percent of the final mark and the major project will account for 50 percent of the final mark. There will be no formal final examination. 5 In the Selected Special Topics (STA 783) course, the student undertakes up-to-date reviews of 2 or 3 statistical techniques. Assessment is based on the review reports on the techniques selected, a presentation of at least one of the reports at a Departmental seminar, and a 3-hour open-book examination on the journal articles chosen for the report. The report presentation and the examination carry equal weight for the final grade. 6 The Research Treatise (STA790) shall be taken over a period of 2 semesters totaling 6 credits; the student will work under a supervisor. The student is expected to demonstrate the ability to master and critically analyse a prescribed area of advanced statistical literature by making 2 presentations and finally presenting a Research Treatise Report. At the end of STA 791 the student should have made the first presentation and the second presentation will be at the end of STA792. The last date of submission of the Report shall be the last day of lectures of the second semester. In exceptional cases, it may be extended by not more than 2 months, if a request is made through the Head of the Department, supported by the supervisor, at least 2 weeks before the due date. The length of the report shall be around 60 typed, A4 pages (1.5 line spacing). The report will be internally evaluated and will further be externalized. The final assessment grade for the course will be based on the 2 presentations (20 percent) and the report (80 percent).
