College of Business 2017-2018

I. SIGNIFICANT TRENDS: The recent explosion of big data availability and the growing demand for skills to mine and analyze it has led to the creation of a graduate certificate in Business Analytics. The college is continuing to explore avenues for adapting the curriculum to meet this growing demand. The college has expanded its focus to include the promising new area of Entrepreneurship, offering degrees at both the undergraduate and doctoral level. The college is also exploring further development of real estate offerings, having recently hired faculty in this area. A new course focusing on ethics, taught within the College of Business, is now a required part of the curriculum for all undergraduate business majors.

College of Human Sciences 2017-2018

I. SIGNIFICANT TRENDS: Narrative explaining overall changes, mission, etc. For example: college mergers, renaming, new majors, teaching paradigms, etc. Refer to past college reports for examples. Curricula in the College of Human Sciences are constantly being developed to respond flexibly to rapidly evolving career opportunities. The Department of Apparel, Events, and Hospitality Management (AESHM) has modified some course requirements within its majors. Apparel, Merchandising, and Design (AMD) program is proceeding with the Merchandising Certificate and changed the titles of its two courses (AMD 377 and AMD 467) as per the Marketing Department’s (College of Business) request. AMD has also created Textile Science and Product Performance minor, which consists of 17 credits, including 14 credits distributed over four required classes. Chemistry with a lab is now the science requirement for students whose primary option is design or product development. AMD 329 is now a required class in the major’s Design option and AMD 426 is placed into the large “select 9 credits” elective list. For the AMD Merchandising Primary Option: AESHM 175N Financial Applications in the Hospitality Industry and AESHM 211N Leadership Experiences and Development were added to the “select 15 credits” list. For the EVENT major, EVENT 289 moved out of core classes and into the Event “select from” list, which is expanding with four new experimental courses. For the Hospitality Management major, Stat 104 added as a choice with Stat 101. The Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition (FSHN) is responding to changes in the dietetics profession and expanding food and health systems. The Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics will require a master’s degree to become a Registered Dietitian in 2024; FSHN is responding by developing an online master’s degree option. Sustainability, green technologies and expanding health care costs relative to chronic diseases present new opportunities; FSHN has responded with a new minor, undergraduate certificate, and degree options. The Department of Human Development and Family Studies is incorporating more aspects of family health and well-being into the curriculum. Students in Kinesiology are increasingly using the major in preparation for enrolling in health profession education programs (medical schools, physical therapy schools, and dental schools). As such we will continue to adjust our curriculum to accommodate these pre-health professions. Within the next year we anticipate adding an Athletic Training Masters because this is required by the accreditation body. No curricular changes were made in academic programs within the School of Education.

I. SIGNIFICANT TRENDS: In Fall, 2015, the Higher Learning Commission visited Iowa State University for its accreditation review. Given the expansive role of LAS in providing foundational coursework for students from every part of the University, the college, its courses and its assessment work were all part of the assurance argument that laid out the case to support the argument that the university is meeting the five review criteria. The outcome of that visit was a reaffirmation of ISU’s accreditation. The next accreditation review is scheduled for 2025-2026.

A review of catalog masthead information revealed that a college-wide statement concerning any minimum grade standard in the introductory communications courses, ENGL 150 and 250, was missing. Although the statement had been removed from the catalog some years ago, the college decided to revisit this academic standard. After discussion by the LAS College Representative Assembly and review by the College and Faculty Senate Academic Standards committees, a minimum grade standard was approved in the LAS College: At a minimum, students must demonstrate their communication proficiency by earning a grade of C or better in ENGL 250; some majors set higher requirements for communication proficiency.

Given the on-line catalog and the fact that catalog revisions are happening in both academic semesters, LASCC feels that the committee and the college face challenges in seeing the broad overview of departments and programs and how curricula in the college are evolving. To help allay this concern, and to help departments and programs prepare for periodic external reviews, the LASCC meets with department/program representatives in the academic year just preceding their external review.

To assist departmental leadership with curriculum issues – submitting experimental course proposals, reviewing and editing catalog, etc. – the LASCC Chair and members of LASCC met with the Dean’s Cabinet (department and program chairs) and departmental curriculum committee chairs to summarize major activities, offer recommendations on what the committee examines in new course proposals, and to answer other questions. These two sessions were favorably reviewed.

LAS 290E New subhead

Career services ambassadors are a parallel program to the LAS Ambassadors program but for some students the career course title is useful. Most students do the program just as an activity and don't take credit, but students who care to do academic work related to the position can earn credit.

LAS 290S New subhead

The STEM Scholars projects course will be taught by Dr. Corey Welch. Its mission is to offer Science Bound and LAS STEM majors, particularly those from underrepresented groups, a course to support their science learning and build community.

The course will fill in a gap in current Pol S offerings, which do not have a course on the politics of this increasingly important international actor. The centrality of China in global politics today is recognized, and this course will serve an important need to the Dept and for ISU students.

I. SIGNIFICANT TRENDS: In spring our college underwent an extensive review of our entire curricula as required to be done every 7 years for accreditation purposes. Between January and May of 2016, six taskforces, comprised of faculty members and students, were formed to review the ISUCVM curriculum, and provide recommendations for further study or curricular revision. Four taskforces each reviewed one year of the curriculum, and the fifth taskforce reviewed vertical integration of the curriculum across years. A sixth taskforce reviewed the curriculum offered at University of Nebraska in Lincoln. This year we have made two changes to the senior year curriculum. The 4th year Food Animal Option added VDPAM 476 (2 credits) as a required course and decreased the number of Selective by 2 credits keeping the overall credits required the senior year unchanged at 44. This change was done to ensure all our food animal interested students have a real-life experience in food animal ambulatory practice before graduation. The second change involves the 4th year Small Animal Option. The new Small Animal Option eliminates the requirement for VCS 446 (2 credits) and VCS 452 (2 credits), removes the requirement for any Selectives (6 credits), and opens up all these credits as elective (moving from 6 credits to 16 credits) while still maintaining the 44 credit requirement for this year. These changes were made to provide small animal interested students with a more flexibility in designing their senior year program. We also had minor adjustments to other courses to better reflect what is being taught in each course.

Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs (Graduate College)

2017-2018 I. SIGNIFICANT TRENDS: The interdisciplinary programs continue to bring together faculty from various departments and colleges to craft cutting edge programs to prepare graduates for careers in industry, academia, and government institutions. The ability to draw on faculty resources across disciplines strengthens the programs and allows them to adapt to current industry needs. The Graduate College worked with several Colleges to provide incentive funding for new doctoral students in interdepartmental majors.
