Concentration in Global Studies

Create New Program

This concentration is designed to appeal to the better Hillyer students and enhance retention. About a dozen courses outside of Hillyer will be part of the options.

Assessing Complementary & Alternative Medicine

This course has been offered twice to very positive student response. It will be the first addition to the AUCT offerings in several years. At least five faculty have expressed a strong interest in participating.

The Senate Curriculum Committee meets in Auerbach 426, 12:00 p.m. - 1:40 p.m. on the dates below - please note the Due Dates for materials to be delivered to the Registrar's Office.

Curricular Materials (Blue Sheets, Program Review Tracking Sheets, et al) should be delivered directly to Nancy Philip, Registrar's Office, Computer Center, 2nd Floor, X4594, by the Due Date and Time shown below.

NOTA BENE: The dept. or college submitting any curricular materials should plan on having a knowledgeable person be present to answer questions at the Curriculum Committee meeting at which their proposal is considered. The exact time to appear on that day will be e-mailed and voice-mailed to the proposer (e.g. Dept. Chair, College Curric. Comm. Chair), about one day before the Curriculum Committee meeting.

This course was passed by the Senate previously without the "W" listing. Unfortunately, SCAA never considered the course. It is being resubmitted as a writing intensive course.

This addition of the "W" will allow sections of the First Year Seminar to be listed as writing intensive in those sections that have added sufficient writing requirements. One can list a course as writing intensive on a section-by-section basis.

Each of the above engineering programs has revised their first year offerings (approved by the Senate last month) and these proposals will officially make the new courses part of the required curriculum. They have also formalized their first year Dialog program by making it a 1-credit course. ME, IE, BioE, and CE have decided a previous change from separate 3-credit courses in Statics and Dynamics to a single 4-credit course in Vector Mechanics has not provided sufficient preparation for upper level courses. Therefore, these majors will replace the current Vector Mechanics requirement with the older requirement of two 3-credit courses in Statics and Dynamics.
CE 300	Engineering Economics	CCC
The course had previously been 2-credits. Material on bonding will be added, plus, as a 3-credit course, it is more likely to be taken by upper-level engineering students as a professional elective.
EN 481	English III, Adv Technical Cmm	CDC
EN 241	English II, Technical Cmm	CDC
Since almost all engineering technology students now continue for their bachelor's, these courses, which were previously their last writing courses, are being upgraded.

There is a shortage of trained staff for Montessori schools. Current teachers have requested a program leading to the master's degree. The person teaching these new courses is a nationally known master Montessori trainer who has come to the area to do training at the Learning Corridor. She and the ENHP faculty designed the proposed courses to be consistent with other ENHP graduate programs. This will be the only program in the state to prepare these professionals.
PT 600, PT 601	Neurological Exam Interven 1	CCC
As currently constituted, both of these courses are 2-credits. As PT moves toward doctoral level work, the need for more hours in the theoretical material is needed. The proposal is to increase the theoretical course PT 600 to 3-credits and reduce the lab component, PT 601, to a 1-credit three hour lab.
