https://www.wright.edu/sites/www.wright.edu/files/uploads/2017/Feb/meeting/FS_Min
utes_2017_01Jan.pdf
The minutes were approved as written.
III. Report of the University President or Provost
Provost Sudkamp
Dr. Sudkamp began his report by summarizing a few key points from Dr. Hopkins budget
remediation update sent via email earlier in the day. https://www.wright.edu/sites/www.wright.edu/files/uploads/2017/Feb/meeting/BudgetUpdate_2017_02Feb_20.pdf
A mid-year analysis of the ongoing budget remediation has revealed the need to create a budget for next fiscal year that is $25million less in base budget operational spending than
the current fiscal year.
o Revenue and enrollment, particularly international enrollment, are down from this
point last year.
o While domestic enrollment is up, the additional College-Credit-Plus students do not
provide significant revenue.
o Overall tuition revenue is down $10m from the projected amount in the current
fiscal year budget.
Wright State Faculty Senate
MINUTES
February 20, 2017
o In the past, projected investment income was factored into the budget but will not
be built into the model for the next fiscal year budget.
o The university needs to start rebuilding its unrestricted reserves.
The administration will be pursuing a three-fold approach to address this issue: o Merging, consolidating, and removing duplication from across the campus
(academic and service units)
o Reach out to all units to perform a 0-based budget analysis to allocate their
resources to their identified highest priorities.
o The administration will be looking for new big ideas (major reorganizations, new
ways or methods of doing things, etc)
The Board of Trustees have required a completed plan by their April 2017 meeting. Provost Sudkamp and CFO Jeff Ulliman are developing templates for the VPs and Deans to complete
the processes mentioned above.
Dr. Sudkamp continued his report by updating the Senate on several issues regarding the
Governor’s budget proposal and other issues coming from Columbus:
The proposed budget calls for no increase in tuition and fees for the next two years.
The university will be required to complete a duplicative course evaluation, which requires the Board of Trustees to evaluate and report on all courses and programs based on
enrollment and course duplication.
Regional duplicative academic program review: Wright State will need to work with Central State to identify duplicative programs between the two institutions and enter an
agreement regarding how the institution will share these programs. Other actions
mentioned at past Senate meetings include removal of specific programs from one of the
institutions, or submitting rationale regarding why two duplicative programs should exist.
Proposed Faculty tenure review to require the Board of Trustees to create a pathway to
tenure based on commercialization.
A proposal for universities to be required to provide all textbooks to students at a maximum rate of $300/year or $10/credit hour. If passed, estimates indicate the cost to Wright State
will be between $10million and $12million if the university continues the current method of
book assignments. It may also result in a push towards increased usage of open access
course materials, or the need to implement a K-12 style distribution system that allows the
university to amortize the cost of the materials over multiple years.
The State of Ohio has adopted statewide CLEP standards, which were previously
determined by each institution. Carl Brun will be working to implement those at Wright State by the Fall 2017 deadline.
The State of Ohio is working on statewide pathways, essentially articulation agreements,
between all state two and four year institutions in the areas of Business and Social Sciences.
In closing, Dr. Sudkamp invited everyone to attend the celebration of the new School of Public and
International Affairs (SPIA) at 4pm, Tuesday, February 21st in the Apollo Room. SPIA was created
through the merger of the departments of Political Science, and Urban Affairs and Geography.
IV. Report of the Senate Executive Committee
A. Draft UAPRC Charge
https://www.wright.edu/sites/www.wright.edu/files/uploads/2017/Feb/meeting
/UCRC-recharge.pdf
In response to a charge from the Senate at its January 2017 meeting, the Executive
Committee has submitted the above re-charge of the Undergraduate Curriculum
Review Committee for feedback.
B. Dr. Loranger announced that the she and Vice President Doom plus one faculty
leader from each college and the three from the internal 360 Review Committee met
with the external reviewers for the 360 review of OVPR.
C. Miscellaneous
The Executive Committee has asked the Office of the President not to
provide hot hors d’oeuvres/reception for new Senators for the April
meeting.
The EC also sought clarification on elections procedure. The EC voted in
January 2015 to prohibit any individual from running for faculty president
and vice president in the same election; however, one may run for one of
these offices and a senate seat.

X. Adjourn
Next scheduled Faculty Senate Meeting:
March 20, 2017
Wright State University is required by Federal Law (34 C.F.R 668.21 (c)) to review the enrollment activity of its Federal aid recipients (Title IV Aid). A student is considered to be a Title IV financial aid recipient if he/she has received any of the following federal awards: Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG), Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Direct Stafford Loans, and Federal PLUS loans (parent and graduate PLUS loans). Students must initiate attendance and/or complete an academic-related action for each course in which they are enrolled, each term in order to establish and maintain eligibility for Title IV financial aid. It is the student’s responsibility to initiate attendance and/or complete an academic related-action for each class, each semester in order to be eligible for Federal Title IV financial assistance. It is the responsibility of the institution to report whether or not a student has initiated attendance or has taken academic actions within each course that he/she may be enrolled. The University’s recent Program Review by the U.S. Department of Education uncovered that we do not currently have a good process to meet the requirements to affirm that a student has initiated an academic action in each course in which he/she is enrolled. The following are recommendations to ensure compliance with Title IV requirements:
1. Implement a grade of NA (No Academic Action or Never Attended). This grade will be distinguished from the X
grade by establishing that a student did not initiate the required attendance or academic action in a course. The
X grade will remain a grade indicating that a student initiated attendance or academic action but stopped
attending or completing the required academic actions at some point prior to the end of the term. A grade of NA
should carry 0 points per credit hour, consistent with both the F and X grades.
2. Implement a grade of NU (No Academic Action or Never Attended for P/U courses). Similar to the grade of NA,
the NU grade will signify that a student to not initiate the required academic action or attendance in a course.
The grade of NU will not be used in the calculation of a student’s grade point average.
The Office of Financial Aid will use the grades listed below during the Return to Title IV (R2T4) Process when students
withdraw from all coursework during any part of a term:
For letter-graded classes: NR – calculated like an F, student did not attend or initiate an academic action X – calculated like an F, student initiated attendance or academic action but unofficially dropped out of the course prior to the end of the semester For P/U classes: NU – like a U, student did not attend or initiate an academic action XU – like a U, student initiated attendance or academic action but unofficially dropped out of the course prior to the end of the semester
The Office of Financial Aid is required to complete the R2T4 process for unofficial withdraws and for students who do not earn a credit-bearing grade (A, B, C, D, F (earned one), S, U, M, etc.). The NR/NU and X/XU grades will enable the Office of Financial Aid to maintain compliance with the Federal Regulations that require that we report whether or not a student initiated attendance or academic action within a class (and determine if there is an impact on the student’s Federal aid eligibility).

I. Dean’s List - http://policy.wright.edu/policy/3340-deans-list
Changes:
Undergraduate students who attain high GPAs during a semester are placed on the Dean's List.
To be named to the list, students must have at least a 3.5 GPA for the semester; have completed
for the semester at least 12 hours of credit for courses in which they have received grades of A,
B, or C; and cannot have received a grade of F, X, D, I, U, T, M, N, NR, XU or NU.
II. Fresh Start - http://policy.wright.edu/policy/3370-readmission-under-fresh-start-policy
Changes:
Section 3370.1.4
A student’s five cumulative grade replacements include those prior and subsequent to application of the Fresh Start Rule.
o Courses re-taken following application of the Fresh Start Rule where the original grade was A, B, C, or P are not eligible to be repeated with grade replacement. If a student chooses to retake such course, the course’s hours earned will not be counted in total hours and the grade will not be counted in the cumulative GPA.
o Courses re-taken following application of the Fresh Start Rule where the original grade was not an A, B, C, or P are counted towards a student’s cumulative total of five grade replacements. In such cases, the hours earned will be counted in total hours and the grade will be counted in the cumulative GPA.
III. Course Repeats and Replacements
http://policy.wright.edu/policy/3520-course-repeats-and-replacement
Changes:
3520.1 – First two paragraphs
For courses in which a grade of B, C, D, F, X, or NR has been earned, a student may
repeat one or more courses with grade replacement up to a cumulative total of five
grade replacements. For these courses, only the grade for the last attempt will be counted
in the hours earned and cumulative GPA. However, every grade received for a repeated
course will become part of the student's permanent record.
A course with fixed content can be retaken to affect the student's cumulative GPA. A
course is considered a repeat with grade replacement when a student earns a grade of B,
C, D, F, X, or NR for the course and retakes the course resulting in a grade of A, B, C, D,
F, X, or NR. All such courses will be counted toward the five-course maximum.
Withdrawals (W) are not counted as repeats.

3215 Undergraduate Transfer Credit Policy
This policy refers to credit taken by high school graduates who have attempted one or more courses at one
of the following institutions before enrolling at Wright State University (WSU):
a college or university accredited by one of the six regional accrediting organizations recognized
by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) or the U.S. Department of Education
(USDE);
an international institution accredited by its respective Ministry of Education or comparable
accrediting body.
To be considered for admission as a transfer student, students must have completed all requisite
undergraduate admissions procedures.
All transfer students with at least a 2.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) are eligible for admission to the
university. Direct admission to most colleges and schools requires a higher GPA.
Those students with less than a 2.0 GPA from colleges attended within the past three years must petition
for admission, unless the student participated in one of the partnership programs entered into with local
community colleges which allows a shorter time period for those who successfully maintain a 2.25 GPA
in at least 18 college-level credits at the community college. Petition forms are available in the Office of
Undergraduate Admissions and must be submitted along with the other application's materials.
Students with less than a 2.0 GPA who have been out of college for more than three years do not have to
petition to transfer to WSU. Students who have been dismissed/suspended from another institution will
not be considered for admission to WSU for one calendar year from the point of dismissal from that
institution.
The Office of Undergraduate Admissions will notify students of their admission to the University College
or the appropriate college.
Students who have been allowed by another institution to take a course to replace “D” or “F” grades must
have earned an additional minimum 12 hours at the same institution before WSU will recognize the
recalculated GPA for admission purposes.
The awarding of student credit hours follows other related WSU policies, including but not limited to:
Ohio Department of Higher Education (ODHE) Ohio Articulation and Transfer Policy
(WSU Policy 3210),
Ohio Transfer Module (WSU Policy 3230),
Transfer Credit for Military Training, Experience, and Coursework Policy (WSU Policy
3285),
Prior Learning Assessment (PLA) Policy (WSU Policy 3220)
Transfer Student Requirements for Completion of WSU Core (WSU Policy 3240)
Transfer Student Requirements for Writing Across the Curriculum (WSU Policy 3245)
Transfer Credit for “D” Grades (WSU Policy 3260)
Course Repeats and Replacement (WSU Policy 3520)
Students must follow the policies of programs pertaining to the applicability of awarded credit hours.
For example, according to ODHE articulation and transfer policy, a grade of “D” from an Ohio college or
university must be accepted by WSU, but a program may require the student to receive a higher grade in
that same course. Thus, the student would still need to meet the higher grade requirement of the program
by using the WSU repeat or PLA policy.
Transfer credit will be posted with a “T”, followed by the letter grade the student earned at the previous
regionally accredited institution (e.g., TA or TB). If a grade of “Pass” was earned, then the transfer credit
will be posted as CR. Awarded credit from international institutions are posted as CR.
Wright State academic departments will determine how students' transfer credits are applicable toward the
requirements for their degree. A transfer student may petition the decision regarding application of
transfer credit in a given department or program. That petition is reviewed by the college and university
petitions committee.
All religion courses from international colleges and universities and private domestic institutions must be
approved by the Religion Department before they can be awarded credit.

3215.1 Transfer Students
High school graduates who have attempted one or more courses at a regionally accredited college or university before enrolling at Wright State are considered transfer students. To be considered for admission as a transfer student, students must submit the following:
1. Undergraduate application 2. $30 nonrefundable application fee 3. Official transcript from each college previously attended 4. High school transcript (required of the following students):
o High school graduates of 1986 or before who are transferring with fewer than 12 quarter (nine semester) hours
o High school graduates of 1987 or after who are transferring with fewer than 45 quarter (30 semester) hours
5. College Preparatory Curriculum Completion Form (required of the following students): 6. High school graduates of 2002 or after who are transferring with fewer than 45 quarter (30
semester) hours. Graduates of 1987 or after with fewer than 45 hours must fulfill any high school deficiencies even though they do not need to submit the college prep form.
All transfer students with at least a C average are eligible for admission to the university; admission to most colleges and schools requires a higher GPA. Those students with less than a 2.0 GPA from colleges attended within the past three years must petition for admission. Petition forms are available in the Office of Undergraduate Admissions and must be submitted along with the other application's materials as outlined. Students with less than a 2.0 GPA who have been out of college for more than three years do not have to petition to transfer to Wright State. Students who have been dismissed/suspended from another institution will not be considered for admission to Wright State for one calendar year.
Students who have been granted a "fresh start" at another institution must have earned an additional minimum 12 hours at the same institution before Wright State will recognize the recalculated GPA for admission purposes.
3215.2 Transfer Credit Regulations
1. Students' credits must have been earned at an institution that is regionally accredited. Transfer appeals should be submitted in writing to the Office of the Registrar.
2. Transfer students are subject to all Wright State requirements, including minimum course grades and GPAs, for entrance to particular majors and programs. Transfer students who must repeat
courses to meet these requirements will follow the same rules for repeating courses as students who begin at Wright State (see “Academic Policies” in this catalog). Grades of “pass” and “credit” are considered for transfer credit.
o Ohio Transfer and Articulation Policy was revised effective Fall 2005 for grades in courses completed outside an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree. As of Fall 2005 and thereafter, a student must have earned a course grade of D or higher (according to the definition of grades currently used at Wright State) to transfer credit for that course. Previous policy required that a student earn a grade of C or higher to transfer credit for the course. However, students who completed courses before Fall 2005 with a grade of D may request that credits be posted for those courses. Forms for submitting these requests are available in the Office of the Registrar.
3. Any credit earned through correspondence, off-campus, or distance learning is subject to the same regulations as other transfer credit.
4. Students who have completed three-fourths or more of the Wright State quarterly credit hour requirement for a course or sequence may receive credit for that course or sequence. For example, two three-credit hour courses in English composition may be considered the equivalent of ENG 101 and 102 (8 credit hours).
5. Wright State academic advisors will determine how students' transfer credits are to be used toward the requirements for their major. If there are exceptions to the application of transfer credit, the dean of the major college or school involved will make the decision.
6. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions will notify students of their admission to the University College or the appropriate college.
7. General education requirements for most transfer students will be determined by a course-by-course evaluation.
8. Students who have already received a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution and wish to pursue a second baccalaureate degree will automatically receive 138 quarter credit hours. They will be ranked as seniors. An advisor will determine how many credits these students will have to complete to receive their second degree.
9. All religion courses taught by a religion department in any state college or university will be considered for transfer credit. These courses are subject to other applicable transfer credit regulations. Religion courses taught by all other colleges must be approved by the Religion Department before transfer credit is granted.
10. Transfer students with a minimum GPA of 3.4 or higher earned at Wright State may be eligible to graduate with Latin honors (summa cum laude, magna cum laude, or cum laude). For the purpose of determining Latin honors, the student's GPA at Wright State will be recalculated to include all posted transfer grades; however, this recalculated GPA will not be reflected on the student's academic record. The official transcript will include only the GPA for courses completed at Wright State. The recalculated GPA may result in the student's not earning Latin honors at graduation.

grade earned for a course will be counted. This recalculation of the GPA may result in the loss of
honors status at graduation. To be eligible for academic honors at graduation, students must have
earned at least 45 credit hours at Wright State University.
Students who hold a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution, including Wright State,
and who earn a second baccalaureate degree at Wright State per the academic policy
requirements for second degrees, are eligible for academic honors. Academic honors are based
on all course work at Wright State University attempted for the second degree following and
excluding the first degree course work. Only the first grade earned for a course in the second
degree course work will be counted.

I. Title: Nonprofit Administration Minor II. Objectives The minor will prepare students to work, contribute, and lead in to the nonprofit sector. Students in the Nonprofit Administration Minor will develop skills and knowledge in
• Foundations and management of the nonprofit sector; • Nonprofit governance, leadership, and advocacy; • Financial resource development and management; • Legal and ethical decision making in public service; • Program development and evaluation; and • Volunteer and human resource management.
III. Description Nonprofits, volunteer organizations, and human services agencies play a vital role in the care and development of society. To fulfill their mission, these organizations need dedicated, trained professionals with the desire and ability to make a difference in their community and the lives of others. The minor prepares students across all majors to work in and support the nonprofit sector. The Nonprofit Administration minor offers courses that enable students to learn and apply leadership skills in these settings by combining coursework with hands-on experiences through service-learning courses focused on the management of nonprofit organizations. In addition, students prepare for career advancement by developing a professional portfolio presenting their experience, knowledge, and skills. Students enrolled in the minor have the option, should they choose, to obtain a nationally accredited certificate in conjunction with the Nonprofit Leadership Alliance (NLA) or the Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP). The NLA Certified Nonprofit Professionals certificate requires a 3.0 average in coursework for the certificate, URS 4970 Nonprofit Internship, and participation in co-curricular activities. The AFP Collegiate Certificate requires URS 3300 Ethics in Public Service or another applied ethics course and additional co-curricular activities. IV. Admission Requirements. Students must have a minimum of a 2.0 in the coursework in order to be admitted to minor. V. Program Requirements The course requirements for a minor in Nonprofit Administration are as follows:

I. Title of Program: Certification in Medical Laboratory Science Department: Biological Sciences College: College of Science and Mathematics
II. Objectives:
The objectives of the Medical Laboratory Science degree are to provide the ability to meet or exceed entry level competencies as described by National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Science (NAACLS). These objectives include, but are not limited to:
Describe the principles, procedures, limitations, interferences and techniques of all common laboratory procedures.
Recognize normal limits for the above procedures.
Correlate patient laboratory data to determine sample acceptability and to determine clinical conditions.
Establish and monitor a quality control program.
Understand the basic principles of laboratory instruments.
Perform as an entry level Medical Laboratory Scientist.
III. Descriptions (catalog):
The Medical Laboratory Science certificate program is a one-year medical laboratory curriculum accredited by the American Medical Association Council on Medical Education through the National Accrediting Agency of Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS). The program is a 12-month training, which includes 24 weeks of hospital practicums. Upon successful completion of the program, students receive a certificate in Medical Laboratory Science. They also become eligible to take the national certification examination for medical laboratory scientists given by the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP).
Students apply for the Medical Laboratory Science Clinical Year Program through the department. Criteria used to determine admission include the academic record, letters of recommendation, and a personal interview. The number of positions in each class for the clinical year is limited and determine by the Program’s Advisory Committee.
The program’s courses are oriented toward job performance, theory and clinical correlation. Students are placed in varied practice environments. They are also oriented to the need for continuing education and leadership in the planning and management of laboratory services. The program plan is specifically designed to facilitate student progress, and promote career development in any geographic location.
IV. Admission Requirements: The 12 month of the program, AKA the Clinical Year program (CYP) requires prospective students to apply before November 1 of the calendar year preceding summer admission. They are required to complete an application with three references and to have a minimum overall GPA of 2.7 and a minimum grade of C in all science and math courses. Students may enter with a B.A. or B.S. in science. Two faculty members and one clinical affiliate representative then interview the applicants. The curriculum committee votes at the annual meeting in January/February to accept or reject applicants and to determine the class size. Students enroll for the summer term and begin their didactic classes. Just after the fall term begins, students spend most of their remaining time at affiliate laboratories. Graduates of an approved (Clinical Laboratory Technician) CLT/(Medical Laboratory Technician) MLT program are considered for entry into the CYP on an individual basis.
V. Program Requirements:
The program requirements can be found in the attached program of study.

Those Clinical Laboratory Science (CL) courses are being converted to Medical Laboratory Science (MLB) courses, so no additional Wright State University courses or resources will be needed. As no new courses were created and all courses are regularly offered there are no coordination issues at this time.
IX. Resource Coordination:
No additional resources will be needed to offer the degree in Medical Laboratory Science.
X. Program Staffing:
No additional staffing will be needed to offer the degree in Medical Laboratory Science.
XI. Other
a. Employability i. There has been 100% employment for graduates in the last six years.

Proposed Degree in Medical Laboratory Science
I. Title of Program: Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science Department: Biological Sciences College: College of Science and Mathematics
II. Objectives:
The objectives of the Medical Laboratory Science degree are to provide the ability to meet or exceed entry level competencies as described by National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Science (NAACLS). These objectives include, but are not limited to:
• Describe the principles, procedures, limitations, interferences and techniques of all common laboratory procedures.
• Recognize normal limits for the above procedures. • Correlate patient laboratory data to determine sample acceptability and to determine
clinical conditions. • Establish and monitor a quality control program. • Understand the basic principles of laboratory instruments. • Perform as an entry level Medical Laboratory Scientist.
III. Descriptions (catalog):
The Medical Laboratory Science degree program is a four-year medical laboratory curriculum accredited by the American Medical Association Council on Medical Education through the National Accrediting Agency of Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NAACLS). The last year of the program is a 12-month training, which includes 24 weeks of hospital practicums. Upon successful completion of the program, students receive a Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science. They also become eligible to take the national certification examination for medical laboratory scientists given by the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP).
In the Fall semester of their preclinical year, students apply for the Medical Laboratory Science Clinical Year Program through the department. Criteria used to determine admission include the academic record, letters of recommendation, and a personal interview. The number of positions in each class for the clinical year is limited and determine by the Program’s Advisory Committee.
The program’s courses are oriented toward job performance, theory and clinical correlation. Students are placed in varied practice environments. They are also oriented to the need for continuing education and leadership in the planning and management of laboratory services. The program plan is specifically designed to facilitate student progress, and promote career development in any geographic location.
IV. Admission Requirements:
Requirements for direct admission into the Medical Laboratory Science degree program are in alignment with the Wright State University College of Science and Mathematics criteria, including: a high school GPA of 3.0 or higher, an ACT Math score minimum of 22 or 520 on the SAT, and an ACT English score minimum of 23 or 530 on the SAT. Students who intend to enter into the Medical Laboratory Science degree program but do not meet the criteria to be directly admitted will begin in University College. Once the student has satisfied the following criteria, they can be admitted into the Medical Laboratory Science degree program: completed at least 15 semester hours with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.25, and earned a grade of “C” or higher in one of the following courses: BIO 1120, BIO 1150, or CHM 1210. There is a separate application to the last 12 months of the program, the Clinical Year program (CYP). Prospective students apply to the CYP before November 1 of the calendar year preceding summer admission. They are required to complete an application with three references and to have a minimum overall GPA of 2.7 and a minimum grade of C in all science and math courses. Two faculty members and one clinical affiliate representative then interview the applicants. The curriculum committee votes at the annual meeting in January to accept or reject applicants and to determine the class size. Students enroll for the summer term and begin their didactic classes. Just after the fall term begins, students spend most of their remaining time at affiliate laboratories. Graduates of an approved (Clinical Laboratory Technician) CLT/(Medical Laboratory Technician) MLT program are considered for entry into the CYP on an individual basis.
V. Program Requirements:
The program requirements can be found in the attached program of study.
VI. Program Quality: The current Clinical Laboratory Science Program has several quality assessments in place. The Medical Laboratory Science program will use the same assessments. Examples include, but are not limited to: • The degree program should be completed in four years or less.

Certificate in Business Analytics
I. Title: Certificate in Business Analytics, Raj Soin College of Business
II. Description: This certificate will provide content knowledge in the field of Business Analytics. This is a new discipline in business which encourages organizations to examine their existing stores of data to discern possible trends or patterns which have been hidden heretofore. Moreover, today’s business analytics extends the work historically relegated to the area of data warehousing and data mining by including current – even up to the moment – data in the analysis.
III. Objectives: The Certificate in Business Analytics is being prepared as a non-degree
certificate for those who may have recently graduated with an undergraduate degree in Business Administration but who were unable to take any coursework in the area of business analytics. Many Universities and Colleges of Business are only now beginning to weave business analytics into the different functional areas offered. Rather than punish the student for having completed a major within the business disciplines, this certificate seeks to allow the student to complement their degree by undertaking business analytics courses in the area of their major (i.e., Economics, Finance, MIS, or Marketing). This is accomplished by a 2 + 2 structure which begins with a two course sequence to give the student a solid foundation in business analytics, and then follows this introduction with the two elective courses to be taken in the student’s choice of business discipline. Additionally, the certificate is structured with flexibility in mind such that other business disciplines which are not represented here (such as Accountancy, Management, Human Resources, or Supply Chain Management) may come online in the future without disruption to the existing structure of the certificate.
IV. Admission Requirements: The certificate in Business Analytics will be offered on a non-degree basis for interested participants who have completed an undergraduate degree in Business Administration (or equivalent) from an AACSB accredited College of Business. Current students are not eligible for admission to the program, as they will not hold an undergraduate degree. Instead, these students would be counseled to consider one of the business analytics concentrations offered within the Raj Soin College of Business.
V. Program Requirements: The certificate in business analytics consists of 12 credit hours
distributed as follows: a. 2 required courses (6 total credits) b. 2 elective courses to be chosen from a basket of business analytics courses representing
different disciplines within business (6 total credits)
VI. Program Quality: The Business Analytics Certificate will utilize quality measures include but are not limited to:
• Monitoring student and their learning outcomes using the Assess My Program (AMP) system.
• Each course’s learning objective and outcomes will be created in the AMP system and monitored using the corresponding measurement in that course. Data will be captured and input into the AMP system each term that course is offered.
• Improvement in student learning outcomes will be guided by the measurement captured in the AMP system.
• Learning outcomes will be revisited periodically and improvement plan will be made to continue assess the quality of the program and to make sure that they are met and improved from year to year.
• Insights learned from student learning and the outcome captured by the assessment system will be communicated with faculty and advisory board for their recommendations to continuously improve the quality of the program.
VII. Student Performance: Current business students are not eligible for admission to the program. Students admitted to the certificate program need to complete all courses with passing degrees to receive the certificate. Students also need to meet the requirements by the university for undergraduate certification, if applicable.
VIII. Curriculum Coordination:
Courses offered in this certification will be taught by faculty in the Departments of MIS, Economics, Finance, and Marketing. The Enrollment Director of the college will coordinate with department chairs for course scheduling.
IX. Resource Coordination:
The two required courses, MIS 3810 and MIS 3840 are also MIS electives. Since all other courses are on the 3000 and 4000 levels, they can be Business electives or general electives to business students who are not in the certificate program. Overall, there is little new resources needed as all courses are scheduled to be offered on a yearly basis. The college will engage advisors to promote the certificate program.
X. Program Staffing:
The proposed certificate program will be taught by existing faculty within the Departments of MIS, Economics, Marketing, and Finance.
