RE: Review of C-courses in the School of Applied Technology (SAT)

DATE: April 23, 2019

Over the Spring 2019 term, the CAC conducted a review of C-courses taught by the School of Applied Technology in order to ensure they were in compliance with the UGSC-established criteria for such courses.  The UGSC mandates that a committee be established to do this, made up of the CAC director (Pulliam), a faculty member from SAT (Ray Trygstad) appointed by that unit’s dean, and a faculty member from outside of SAT (Limia Shunia of IPRO) nominated by the CAC director and approved by the SAT dean.

Over the term, the committee reviewed and approved the C-designation for the following courses, some of which required additional clarification or revisions to demonstrate that they met UGSC criteria:

INTM 301         ITM 100

INTM 315         ITM 300

INTM 322         ITMT 430

INTM 404         ITMS 448

INTM 425         ITMD 460

INTM 441         ITMM 470

                                                                                    ITMM 471

                                                                                    ITMS 478

                                                                                    ITMM 485

SAT has elected to remove the C-designation from the following courses:

INTM 409         INTM 442         ITMD 422

INTM 410         INTM 460         ITMD 462

INTM 427         INTM 461

INTM 430         INTM 477

INTM 434

All decisions were unanimous among the three committee members. The complete documentation for these decisions and the process used to reach them are on file in the office of the CAC director (SH 213), as required by the UGSC.

The CAC and the review committee submit the results of this review to the UGSC for its formal acceptance, and ask that (if accepted) these results be forwarded to the registrar for the action necessary to put them into effect. They should also be forwarded to the Faculty Council as an informational item.
