College of Applied Science and Technology 93 CS 4890 - Cooperative Work Experience Credits: (1-4) Typically taught: Fall [Full Sem] Spring [Full Sem] Summer [Full Sem] The purpose of this course is to permit Computer Science majors who are currently working in a computer related job or internship to receive academic credit for their work, with coordination and approval of a faculty mentor and their supervisor. The amount of upper division credit awarded will be determined by the department, depending on the nature and quantity of work performed. Prerequisite: CS 2420 . May be repeated 3 times up to 4 credit hours. Note: Only 4 credit hours of either CS 4800 or CS 4890 can apply to a CS degree as an elective course, and only a maximum of 6 hours of both CS 4800 and CS 4890 may be taken to satisfy missing credits or to achieve full time academic status CS 4899 - Bachelor's Degree Assessment Credits: (o) This course is to serve as an assessment tool whereby all BS/BA degree seeking students in the Computer Science Department demonstrate their learned knowledge in at least three areas of computer science. At present, this knowledge will be demonstrated through the use of Chi Tester exams administered through the Campus Testing Center. The course is taken during the last term prior to receiving the BS/BA degree. Prereq/Coreq: Successful completion of requirements for the Bachelor's Degree. CS 4920 - Short Courses, Workshops, Institutes and Special Projects Credits: (1-4) Consult the semester class schedule for the current offering under this number. The specific title and credit authorized will appear on the student transcript. May be repeated 3 times up to 4 credit hours. Parson Construction Management Technology Department Department Chair: Steven Peterson Location: Engineering Technology Building, Room 236 Telephone Contact: Andrea Stuart 801-626-7761 Email: ParsonCMT@weber.edu Professor: Steven Peterson; Associate Professor: Chris Soelberg; Assistant Professors: Kristen Park, Joseph Wolfe; Instructor: Pieter van der Have The Parson Construction Management Technology program teaches the processes, procedures and management techniques necessary to function as a "Professional Constructor" as defined by the American Institute of Constructors and the American Council of Construction Education. It is designed to prepare students for immediate professional level employment or further study by developing a cohesive, solid technical foundation bolstered by practical, hands-on experiences, at the same time providing the education necessary for lifelong learning in a changing world. The process of learning is emphasized, as well as accumulation of knowledge. The multi-disciplinary curriculum is composed of courses in the areas of construction science, construction practice, business and management as well as general education. The program is accredited by the American Council of Construction Education (ACCE). The Construction Management Program—Facilities Management Emphasis prepares graduates to manage and maintain the physical facilities for companies. Facilities managers are responsible for managing and overseeing building and physical plant maintenance, grounds upkeep, custodial services, recycling and waste management, the design and construction of new facilities, and the remodeling of existing facilities. The Parson Construction Management Technology curriculum is a "2+2" design facilitating articulation with programs in architecture, building construction, design graphics, facilities and other construction-related degrees. In this regard, articulation agreements have been developed with Salt Lake Community College's Associate's Degree program in Architectural Technology. The partnership between the two schools gives construction management students more flexibility in earning WSU bachelor's degrees. Construction Management Technology (AAS) • Grade Requ i re m ents: A grade o f" C" o r bette r in all major courses, business courses, and support courses is required (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable) in addition to an overall GPA for all courses of 2.00 or higher. Also refer to the general grade requirements for graduation under Degree and General Education Requirements. • Credit Hour Requirements: 63 total credit hours are required. A minimum of 20 hours in residence at WSU is required. A student must also complete a minimum of 18 hours of CMT major courses at WSU to obtain an AAS degree. Advisement All Construction Management Technology students are encouraged to meet with a faculty advisor at the beginning of their freshman and sophomore years for course and program advisement. Call the CMT program secretary at 801-626-7761 to schedule an appointment. Admission Requirements Declare your program of study (see Enrollment Services and Information). There are no special admission or application requirements for this program. (Also refer to the Department Advisor Referral List.) General Education Refer to Degree and General Education Requirements for Associate of Applied Science requirements. The following courses required for the Construction Management Technology AAS degree will also fulfill general education requirements: COMM 1020/COMM 2110 (Humanities), MATH 1080 (Quantitative Literacy), ECON 2010 (Social Science, PHYS 2010 (Physical Science), GEO 1060 (Physical Science), and NTM 1700 and LIBS 1704 (Computer Information Literacy).
