ACADEMIC PROGRAM APPROVAL

 

                                                                                             CHECKLIST

 

This form is a routing document for the approval of new and revised academic programs.  Page 2 will serve as an attachment to the Faculty Senate agenda.  Proposing department should complete form, attach as a cover page and forward to the college dean. Documentation should include copy of curriculum as it is to appear in the Undergraduate and Graduate Catalog.  Proposals must arrive to the Undergraduate/Graduate Committee by November in order to reach the Faculty Senate by March 1.   Proposals received after this date cannot be implemented the following year nor included in the catalog for that year.

a.  Rationale for creation, revision, or deletion:

1.     HESC214 is being deleted as a major requirement for the Exercise Science major and replaced with 3-credits of electives. Faculty and students in this major believe that this course content is no longer necessary for the major.

 

2.        HESC220, Anatomy and Physiology, is being deleted as a major requirement for the Exercise Science major. There are three concentrations within Exercise Science—Biomechanics, Exercise Physiology, and Figure Skating Science. For the Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology concentrations within the major, a currently proposed course, HESC310, Pre-Clinical Anatomy and Physiology, will become a concentration requirement, replacing HESC220. For the Figure Skating Science Concentration within the major, HESC 220 will become a concentration requirement, rather than a major requirement. HESC310 has been designed specifically to provide more advanced anatomy and physiology content with a laboratory component for the Biomechanics and Exercise Physiology concentrations.

 

3.        The Breadth Requirement of a second writing course outside of the department is being eliminated for the Exercise Science major. It has been difficult for students to gain enrollment in such a course due to the limited number of courses offered. Students in the Exercise Science major are required to take HESC 400, Research Methods, which requires an extensive paper with several rewrites. 

 

4.        There is also a revision in the organization of the Breadth Requirements for the major to eliminate confusion with the Breadth Requirements in the College of Arts and Science. (The new organization of the Breadth Requirements is presented at the end of this document.) This will have no effect on the courses/credit hours required. The total number of credits required for the major remains at 120.
