WSU graduates are broadly educated, capable and prepared for meaningful careers, graduate and professional schools, and civic engagement. The hallmark of the university is excellent teaching with extraordinary interactions between faculty and students. WSU offers a wide and diverse variety of degrees/programs (see Programs Sorted by Degree or Programs Sorted by Major/Minor) - the largest and most expansive undergraduate program in the State of Utah. With a student body of over 29,000 drawn predominantly from Utah, but also including students from 48 states and 61 foreign countries, WSU takes pride in its student-centered environment for learning and believes that quality education is founded upon close associations between faculty and students. WSU is distinguished by outstanding academic programs that recruit motivated students to work with faculty to create and share knowledge. More than fifty academic departments and programs in seven colleges provide learning opportunities for a diverse spectrum of students, including grants and support for undergraduate research, communitybased and service learning, an Honors program, and a Bachelor of Integrated Studies (BIS) program. The Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) and the Center for Community Engaged Learning help to engage students in learning both inside and outside the classroom, and the Honors program provides small classes in a rich, supportive, and challenging academic setting. The BIS offers students the opportunity to design their own degrees with three areas of academic emphasis meant to prepare them for specific career paths or graduate study. Academic studies are complemented by a wide range of extracurricular activities, including student government, intramural and intercollegiate athletics, and award-winning performing arts groups. In addition, the Student Success Center along with the First Year Experience program helps new students adjust to the university community, while a variety of support services aid those with particular needs. The WSU Ogden campus has 60 buildings on 526 acres that house abundant classrooms and laboratories, excellent student computing facilities, outstanding performing arts auditoriums, a spacious library, and a well-equipped health and fitness center. An area of continued growth is WSU-Davis, which provides instruction to students on a new hightech campus in Layton. In addition to its Ogden and Davis campuses, WSU offers courses throughout the state and Intermountain West and is a leader in online instruction. Historical Perspective Weber State University was founded in Ogden, Utah, as Weber Stake Academy on January 7, 1889, by the Weber Stake Board of Education of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The 1933 Utah Legislature established Weber College as a state junior college and placed it under the control of the Utah State Board of Education. Following World War II the college outgrew its downtown campus and moved to the present 400-acre site, spectacularly perched on the mountainside overlooking Ogden and the Great Salt Lake. In 1959 the Utah Legislature authorized the addition of upper division courses, leading to award of the first baccalaureate degrees by Weber State College in 1964. The 1969 Legislature created the Utah System of Higher Education, comprising nine public institutions of higher learning, including Weber State College. The system is governed by a State Board of Regents, and each institution has its own Board of Trustees; members of both boards are appointed by the governor. In 1990 the state legislature renamed the institution Weber State University, effective New Year's Day 1991, appropriately symbolizing its role as Utah's premier public, undergraduate university. Mission Statement Weber State University provides associate, baccalaureate and master degree programs in liberal arts, sciences, technical and professional fields. Encouraging freedom of expression and valuing diversity, the university provides excellent educational experiences for students through extensive personal contact among faculty, staff and students in and out of the classroom. Through academic programs, research, artistic expression, public service and community engaged learning, the university serves as an educational, cultural and economic leader for the region. 2 WSU Mission Core Themes Assessment Each of the mission core themes has objectives, indicators of achievement and empirical assessment measures of the indicators.

Although some areas of information are covered in detail, much of the content is presented in a general way. The catalog is not to be considered a binding contract between Weber State and any student or other institution. Weber State reserves the right to change its regulations or course offerings as conditions require during the period of any student's attendance. Students should refer to the official schedule of classes online which is available before and during registration each semester. Assessment at WSU WSU routinely conducts campus-based studies of student attitudes, student achievement, student satisfaction, and personal, professional and career development. These studies are grouped under the heading of student outcomes assessment. Each WSU student is expected to participate in outcomes assessment. While every student is not selected for participation in every activity, it is likely that an individual student will be involved in one or more assessment activities during the college years. It is only through cooperative participation in the assessment process that WSU can better understand itself and better serve its students. 4 As well, every academic program assesses student learning for both formative and summative assessment purposes. This assessment is generally embedded in the curriculum, but may also utilize outside exams, internships, and portfolios. For more information on outcomes assessment at WSU, contact the Office of Institutional Effectiveness, Annex 2, 801626-8586 http://www.weber.edu/ie. Campus Safety and Nondiscrimination Policy Statement CAMPUS SAFETY Your safety while attending WSU is extremely important to us. The university maintains a campus alert system called Code Purple that provides notices about significant emergency situations on campus such as snow closures, power outages, gas leaks, or other potentially dangerous threats. We encourage you to sign-up for campus alerts at weber.edu/codepurple. To report any crime or emergency, call 911 or University police at 801-626-6460, 3734 Dixon Parkway, Ogden, UT 84408. The university also publishes an Annual Security Report and Fire Safety Report which provides information about crime statistics, crime prevention, alcohol and drug policies, fire statistics, etc. These reports can be found online at http://apps.weber.edu/wsuimages/police/2014-15%20Clery%20Book.pdf.

NONDISCRIMINATION Weber State University is committed to protecting the personal rights of all students, employees, and visitors by providing an environment free from harassment and other forms of discrimination based upon race, color, national origin, pregnancy or pregnancy-related conditions, genetics, age (over 40), disability, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, veteran, active military status, and other classifications protected by law. Such an environment is a necessary part of a healthy learning and working atmosphere. Unlawful discrimination undermines human dignity and the sense of community WSU seeks to foster. Discrimination and harassment are illegal and specifically prohibited by the constitutions, statutes, precedents and regulations of the United States and Utah. It is the policy of the University to vigorously enforce these laws among its students and employees. Individuals who believe any of these rights have been violated should review information available at Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity website (http://weber.edu/aaeo) and PPM 3-32, available at https://www.weber.edu/ppm/Policies/3-32_DiscriminationHarassmentandSexualMisconduct.html Discrimination and harassment complaints or those who need assistance with reasonable accommodations may contact: Executive Director or Deputy Director of AA/EO AA-EO@weber.edu 801-626-6239 or 801-626-6240 Miller Administration Building, Room 102, 3850 Dixon Parkway, DEPT. 1022, Ogden, UT 84408-1022 Note that persons who participate in this grievance procedure in good faith are protected against retaliation for doing so.

Sexual harassment includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors or other verbal or nonverbal conduct of a sexual nature, including potentially criminal conduct such as rape, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking. Sexual violence is a severe form of sexual harassment. Individuals who experience or become aware of any form of violence, sexual violence, or sexual harassment are encouraged to immediately report such behaviors. To report any emergency or to file a police report regarding these behaviors, call 911 or University police at 801-626-6460, 3734 Dixon Parkway, Ogden, UT 84408.

The university provides training materials regarding sexual assault, violence prevention, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking, alcohol abuse, and how to assist if you are a bystander. These materials are a helpful guide for safe practices on and off-campus. The university expects all students, faculty and staff to complete this training. Go to portalapps.weber.edu/everfiSSO/. Commitment to an Inclusive Community Pivotal to Weber State University's mission is the need to embrace and value the diversity of its members. Acknowledging the uniqueness of each individual, we seek to cultivate an environment that encourages freedom of expression. Because the University is a community where inquiry is nurtured and theories are tested, every individual has the right to feel safe to express ideas that differ from those held by other members of the community. However, all persons who aspire to be part of our campus community must accept the responsibility to demonstrate civility and respect for the dignity of others. Recognizing that the proper balance between freedom of expression and respect for others is not always apparent or easy to achieve, we must continually challenge ourselves and each other in an atmosphere of mutual concern, good will and respect. Therefore, expressions or actions that disparage an individual's or group's ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, age or disability are contrary to the mission of Weber State University. Exceptions to University Policy All students at Weber State University have the right, with appropriate rationale, to request an exception to University policies or requirements. Help with preparing requests for exceptions can be obtained from the Registrar's Office, SC 101, 801-626-6061, or from the Assistant Dean of Students, Davis Campus Room 261, 801-395-3460.

Submit additional, required documents through Financial Aid Verify, located in the eWeber student portal. The Review Process Students are advised to apply online at https://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa. Applications will go through a Federal "needs analysis." The ability of a student and the student's family to contribute, as well as other resources, will determine the need for financial assistance. Students will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) which will provide information on the expected family contribution and financial need. 71 Once a student's FAFSA is sent to Weber State University, it will be reviewed in the order it was received. As part of the review, our office may require additional information which may include, but is not limited to, official academic transcripts, tax return transcripts, marriage documentation, citizenship documentation, and/or emancipation documentation. Students will be notified through their Wildcat Mail of additional requirements. If a student feels that their FAFSA does not accurately reflect their situation, they should contact a Financial Aid Advisor. When a student's file is complete, an award notice will be emailed to the student, directing them to their student portal. Students can view/accept their award(s) through the eWeber student portal, under Award Information. An award may be canceled if the Award Offer is not accepted within the specified time period. Satisfactory Academic Progress In order to receive financial aid, students must meet qualitative and quantitative academic standards. Qualitative (Academic Standing) In addition to the University's standards, all students who receive financial aid must maintain at least a "C" average overall GPA (2.00) by the end of their fourth semester. This includes transfer work. Students not meeting this requirement will be disqualified from financial aid until they bring their overall GPA to the minimum requirement. Quantitative (Completion Rate & Maximum Time Frame) Students who receive financial aid must satisfactorily complete (receive grades other than I, T, W, UW, NC, E, or AU) at least 67% of their attempted credits, on a semester-by-semester and overall basis. Students who receive financial aid must also complete their program of study within 150% of their program length. For example, a student in a bachelor's program that requires 126 credits will need to complete their program within 189 attempted credit hours. A student in an associate's degree that requires 62 credits will need to complete their program within 94 attempted credits. A student in a certificate program that requires 30 credits will need to complete their program within 45 attempted credits. Any exceptions to these requirements must be approved by the Financial Aid & Scholarship Petition Committee (see Petitions and Reinstatement of Aid). Eligibility Status Students who receive financial aid and complete less than the minimum number of credit hours required by their award level will be put on financial aid denial or warning. Please be aware that any time a student drops a class, there will be financial aid consequences. Credit hours transferred from other colleges/universities will be included in the total hour eligibility for Satisfactory Academic Progress whether or not financial aid was received at the other institution(s). If students change their program of study, credit hours completed for the previous major or majors will still be included in the total number of hours for financial aid eligibility even though the credit hours may or may not satisfy program requirements for the new major. If a student cannot complete their program within the maximum time frame for their program (150% of credits needed for graduation), their financial aid will be denied. Petitions & Reinstatement of Aid Students who are denied financial aid, but who experienced extenuating circumstances, may petition to have their denial removed. Petitions include 1) a letter from the student 2) documentation of their circumstance and 3) a graduation plan. All petitions are reviewed by the Financial Aid & Scholarship Petition Committee. For students who do not have extenuating circumstances, or whose petition is denied, can regain financial aid eligibility by paying for their courses with other funding until they meet the completion rate and GPA Satisfactory Academic Progress requirements. Programs must be completed within the maximum time frame. Withdrawals and Return of Title IV Funds 72 Withdrawals will negatively affect your satisfactory academic progress calculation. If you completely withdraw from school, you may be required to return a portion, if not all, of the financial aid awarded for the semester. If you are dropping some, but not all of your classes, make sure you know how this could affect your Pell Grant. Return to Title IV Policy (R2T4) Federal regulations require your eligibility for aid to be recalculated whenever you withdraw from the university, either officially or unofficially. The recalculation determines the amount of aid you have "earned" by prorating according to the percent of the term completed before withdrawing. After the 60% point in the semester or period of enrollment, you are considered to have earned 100% of the Title IV funds you were scheduled to receive during that period. The Financial Aid and Scholarship Office will use the withdraw date recorded in the Registrar's Office as your official withdrawal date from the university. In the case of unofficial withdraws (i.e. dropped courses, UW grades, and/or retroactive withdrawals), your last date of attendance is reported by the instructor. When such a date can't be determined, the midpoint of the semester is used as your last date of attendance. A repayment of aid is required when the actual amount of aid disbursed is greater than the amount earned, as determined by the recalculation. The university will return funds to the Title IV Program on your behalf when you owe an overpayment, and the university will consider the returned funds as your debt to the institution. If the overpayment is not repaid by the end of the semester: • A hold is placed on future registration. • Your account is referred to the Loan Servicing Department for collection. • You will be put on financial aid denial and will not be eligible to receive any future federal financial aid funding until the overpayment is paid is full and satisfactory progress requirements have been met. A post-withdrawal disbursement will be made if you had eligibility for the Title IV funds (essentially earning more aid than was disbursed.) If you are entitled to a post-withdrawal disbursement: • You will be sent an email informing you that you are entitled to additional funding. • You must respond within 14 days of the receipt of the notification confirming the receipt of loan funds. • You will be informed what type of funds you are eligible to receive and reminded that if the funds are loans, you are responsible for the repayment. • If you still have outstanding institutional balances, the funds will be applied to the balance first. A school must return Title IV funds to the programs from which you received aid during the semester as soon as possible, but no later than 45 days after the date it determines you withdrew. Funds are returned in the following order, as applicable. 1. Unsubsidized Federal Stafford loans 2. Subsidized Federal Stafford loans 3. Federal PLUS loans 4. Federal Pell Grants 5. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (FSEOG) Sample Calculations Example 1: Withdrawal Date: February 23, 2016 You initially received $1,979 in Direct Unsubsidized Loan and $1,155 in Direct Subsidized Loan. You attended 44% of the term, so the repayment amount, which must be repaid immediately, is calculated to be $1,121. Your revised award is $858 in Direct Unsubsidized Loan and $1,155 in Direct Subsidized Loan. Example 2: Withdrawal Date: March 22, 2016 You initially received $1,484 in Direct Unsubsidized Loan, $2226 in Direct Subsidized Loan, and $1,381 in Pell Grant. You attended 62% of the term, so no repayment is required. You are allowed to keep all the aid initially awarded. Student Expense Budget (Cost of Attendance) The cost of attending Weber State University includes direct educational costs such as tuition, fees, books and supplies, as well as living costs such as room and board. Below is a table that gives an approximate budget for students attending the 2018-2019 fall and spring semesters.

There are different deadlines for refunds and grading when withdrawing from classes. If students need instructor or department permission to make a change in their registration, any required forms can be found on our website, or permission can be emailed to our office. For more information, please visit weber.edu/registration. Students are strongly encouraged to plan their class schedules in consultation with an advisor to avoid unnecessary changes and ensure efficient progress toward completion of degree requirements. Students receiving financial aid should be careful not to reduce their credit hour load below the minimum number of hours required by their award level. Closed Classes • • Only academic departments and instructors have the authority to admit students to closed classes. Students may contact the individual department and/or the instructor for specific procedures regarding admission to closed classes. Credit/No Credit (CR/NC) Registration The basic objective of credit/no credit grading is to allow students the opportunity to enroll in classes outside their major or minor on a pass (CR)/ fail (NC) basis without affecting their GPA. The following rules apply: • Freshmen students may take no more than one class per term on a credit/no credit basis. • Students with 30 or more credit hours who have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or above may register for no more than two classes per term on credit/no credit basis. • A maximum of 20 hours of credit/no credit in elective courses may be used for graduation. 77 • • • • • • • Classes taken on a credit/no credit basis will not satisfy major, minor, general education, or specific course requirements. The University Curriculum and General Education Committee have designated a few exceptions to this rule. Please see the academic department for information on these course exceptions. Grades on the credit/no credit system are not included in computing the term or cumulative grade point average. A grade of credit is recorded only for letter grades of C- and above. Grades less than C-, including UW, will be recorded as no credit. Students who change their Program of Study must submit the appropriate form to the Records Office and request the grade be changed to the letter grade issued by the instructor if a credit/no credit course applies to the new Program of Study. If a student has previously taken a course for a letter grade, the same course may not be retaken for credit/no-credit. Choice of credit/no credit registration should be made at the beginning of the term, but a student may change classes to credit/no credit status until the CR/NC deadline. This date can be found in the University's Academic Calendar. The instructor is not notified when a student takes a class for a credit/no credit grade. The instructor will assign a letter grade on the Final Grade Report and then the Records Office will convert the letter grades to credit or no credit. For more information, please visit weber.edu/registration. Audit Course Registration The basic objective of taking a class as audit is to allow students the opportunity to attend a class without earning either a grade or credit for the class. • Students registering to audit a class will pay tuition and fees per the current tuition and fee schedule. • Students in regulated programs, i.e. Financial Aid and Athletics, are subject to the respective program guidelines for audit registration. • Some courses may not be open to audit students because of classroom space limitations. Students must receive instructor permission to audit a class. • Choice of audit registration should be made at the beginning of the term, but a student may change classes to audit status until the audit deadline. This date can be found in the University's Academic Calendar. • Students auditing classes are expected to attend on a regular basis. Students may officially withdraw from the audited class according to the deadline. Audit students failing to attend class may be issued a "W" grade at the discretion of the instructor. • Senior Citizens (Utah residents ages 62 and over) may audit a course as a Lifetime Learner for a $10.00 fee per semester, on a space available basis, by applying at the Admissions Office. Lifetime Learner's selecting this option for courses do not have the option to receive a letter grade nor credit on their transcript for these courses. • For more information, please visit weber.edu/registration. Registration Credit Hour Loads • • • It is recommended that undergraduate students planning to graduate with a bachelor's degree in four years register for at least 15 credit hours per semester.

Graduate students are classified as full-time if they register for 9 or more credit hours, and as half-time if they register for 5 or more credit hours. Overload Registration • • • Students may register for a maximum of 20 credit hours without special permission. Students with a cumulative GPA of 3.50 or better may petition for a maximum of 24 credit hours, and students with a cumulative GPA of 3.75 or better may petition for additional credit hours.

Please also see Surcharge. Tuition and Fee Schedule Tuition and fees are established each year in late spring. Current tuition and fees will be posted on the Internet at weber.edu/bursar/TuitionFee_Tables.html. HB248 Tuition Disclosure 2012-2013 Full-time undergraduate resident students at Weber State University paying a semester of tuition and fees amount of $2,384 contribute an estimated 59% of the full cost of instruction of $4,041. The remaining support of $1,657 is provided by state tax funds. Tuition and Fee Assessment Weber State University does not drop courses for non-payment or non-attendance. Students are responsible for dropping courses they do not plan to attend. Tuition and fees will not be waived for nonattendance. Once registered, each student is obligated to pay for their courses unless the student has dropped courses or the student completes a total withdraw from school during the 100% refund period. If a student drops or completely withdraws from school after the 100% refund period, the student is obligated to pay tuition and fees according to the current semester refund schedule. Also, a student must pay for or drop courses by the payment deadline to avoid late fees and interest. (See Withdrawal for further information.) Tuition and Fees for Online and Independent Study Courses Refer to wsuonline.weber.edu/students/costs.asp for tuition and fee information for WSU Online and Independent Study courses, or call 1-800-848-7770 and choose "Online & Independent Study Student Services" from the phone menu. Course (Lab) Fees 80 Some courses require additional fees for materials and/or resources. Rentals and Deposits Rentals and/or deposits are required on certain items and are paid to the Cashier. Any applicable refunds must be obtained from the Cashier prior to June 30. Surcharge In 2003 the Utah State Board of Regents passed a policy designed to encourage students to make reasonable progress toward completion of degree requirements. The policy states that students who exceed 135% of the credits required for completion of their baccalaureate degree will be charged the full cost of instruction. For example, a student whose program of study requires 126 semester credit hours will be allowed a maximum of 170 semester hours in which to complete degree requirements (126 credits x 1.35 = 170 credit hours). Any work beyond the allowed 135% will be charged at the full cost of instruction. Credit hours that do not count toward the 170 hours are concurrent enrollment, advanced placement, and credit by examination. Individuals are also exempt from the surcharge if: • the credits are necessary for the student to complete the student's program of study; and the excess credits are a result of circumstances where a substantial number of credits from a transferring institution could not be applied to the program of study; • the excess credits are a result of a reasonable enhancement of the student's major by the addition of a minor or emphasis to the program of study; or • the excess credits are the result of a re-entry into the educational system by a student who may have accumulated a large number of credits, or even completed degrees, but where employment requirements obligate his or her return to college. More information is available by contacting the Cashier's Office at 801-626-8006 (SC 209). Agreement to Pay Tuition Charges When a student registers for courses at Weber State University the student agrees to the terms of the "Agreement to Pay Tuition Charges." The agreement states: In consideration of the University's allowing me to register for courses, thus incurring the attendant costs to the University, both direct and indirect, I promise to pay Weber State University (WSU), Ogden, Utah, tuition and fees (principal) assessed to me for courses for which I have registered by the published payment due date for each semester. Also, I agree to pay for any additional fees and interest charges that are assessed to my account each semester. I hereby agree to pay a late payment fee of $40 if my account balance is not paid by the published payment due date, together with interest at the rate of 12% per annum on the unpaid balance. In the event I default on this agreement and it becomes necessary to place this account for collection, I also agree to pay collection fees, not to exceed 50.00% of the original principal balance, plus any court and/or attorney fees resulting from the enforcement of this agreement. Any collection costs stated above are in addition to the principal, fees and interest due on my account. In the event of default of any of the terms of this agreement, I hereby give to the WSU Controller, or his/her designee, Power of Attorney to apply all monies due me from WSU to any delinquent portion of this note until the principal, fees, interest and costs are paid in full. I agree that WSU may repay my account balance from any TITLE IV funds due me. I understand that the principal amount is calculated based on my class-load each semester at WSU. All outstanding tuition account balances are considered qualified educational loans under I.R.C § 221 and are extended with the express understanding that future repayment shall be made to the university. I further understand that my acceptance of these terms represents my acknowledgementand acceptance of my tuition account balance qualifying as a qualified education loan under I.R.C. § 221, and as such, is exempt from discharge under federal bankruptcy code 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(8). Billing Statement Tuition and fees statements are available on the eWeber student portal. Electronic statements and up-to-date balances are available in the student account at any time. Students are responsible for viewing up-to-date balance or e-statements in the student account. It is the student's responsibility to make sure account balances are paid in-full and on-time. A paper billing statement will only be mailed at the student's request by sending an email to cashiers@weber.edu. Payment Schedule 81 • • • Payment deadlines are listed on the Internet at weber.edu/bursar. Tuition and fees may be paid by cash, check VISA, DiscoverCard, MasterCard or American Express. Monthly payment plans are available to help students who are not able to pay in full when tuition is due. (See Monthly Payment Plan Option below.) Late Payment Fee A late payment fee will be assessed to all students who have not paid their tuition and fees in-full or have not signed up for a monthly payment plan (see weber.edu/bursar/Late_fees.html for the amount and schedule for assessment of the fee.) If a student has an outstanding balance after their financial aid or scholarships have been applied, the student is responsible to pay this amount by the payment deadline to avoid the late payment fee and interest charges. The late payment fee and interest are nonrefundable and will not be waived. If a student changes his/her schedule by adding classes, the student has until Friday at 4:00 p.m. of that week to pay the balance or the late payment fee will be assessed to the student account. Students should check their account balance each time a change is made to his/her schedule to determine the new balance due. Interest Assessment Interest will begin the fourth week of the semester. The annual rate is 12%. A student will not be assessed interest as long as the student is in a Monthly Payment Plan that covers all tuition and fees and current on all payments. Interest on unpaid balances will be assessed in addition to the late payment fee. Monthly Payment Plan Option The Monthly Payment Plan is a program intended to help students who are not able to pay their account in full by the tuition and fee deadline. Instead of one large payment, tuition and fees are broken down into equal monthly payments. Enrollment in a plan is available at the time of registration prior to beginning of each semester. See weber.edu/bursar for details about monthly payment plans. Personal Checks or eChecks Personal checks or eChecks returned by a financial institution for any reason are subject to a service charge and may result in the withholding of student records and/or dropping of courses. Delinquent Accounts-Collection Fees Students with unpaid tuition and fees, room and board, parking fines, or other fees due to the University will have a hold placed on their records until such obligations are paid in full. The hold will prevent the student from registering for future semesters, viewing transcripts or grades, delay graduation, and limit use of the Wildcard and certain student services. Unpaid accounts will be processed by University collections. A collection fee of ten percent of the outstanding balance will be assessed to the student. Interest and monthly collection fees will also be assessed on any unpaid balance. In the event additional collection efforts become necessary, WSU may refer a past due account to an outside collection agency. All delinquent accounts are subject to collection fees, interest, plus all court costs and reasonable attorney fees. The collection agency and/or WSU will report delinquent accounts to a credit reporting agency. Third Party/Sponsored Payments Students are responsible for ensuring that appropriate documentation for third party/sponsored payments is submitted to the main cashier's office prior to the start of classes each semester. Students must comply with the terms of the agreement and verify that all tuition and fees changes are paid by the sponsor agreement. It is the student's responsibility to verify that any course or tuition and fee changes will be paid by the sponsor and that these changes are reported to the accounts receivable office for proper processing. If the sponsor does not provide funding by the end of the semester, the student will be responsible for payment of 82 tuition and fees. The account will be considered delinquent if unpaid at the end of the semester. (See Delinquent Accounts above.) Contact 801-626-6263 for information on how to submit vouchers or contracts. Administrative Withdrawals The University reserves the right to administratively withdraw a student from a current semester if a student has an unpaid tuition and fee balance from a prior semester or if the student provides a dishonored check or other payment to pay for tuition and fees. The prior semester courses will not be dropped or withdrawn. Financial Petitions Tuition and fee assessment is based on the registration date of the course and date of withdrawal from the course. The withdrawal dates are published on the Academic Calendar each semester. If, due to extenuating or for other acceptable circumstances, the student must drop a course after the published deadline, the student must complete the "Exception to University Policy-Tuition and Fee Assessment Petition" weber.edu/bursar/Petition.html and submit supporting documentation. Tuition and fees are assessed according to approved tuition and fee tables. The assessment is based on the number of registered credit hours or liable hours for each student. For example, if the student signs up for 12 credit hours, he or she is liable for paying for 12 hours according to the tuition and fee table. Deadlines for Filing Petition The deadline for filing a petition is the last day of the semester of enrollment.

The law generally requires that written consent of the student be received before personally identifiable data about the student is released. Institutions may release, without written consent, those items specified as public or directory information, provided the institution informs students of the data designated as public information and gives students prior opportunity to refuse disclosure of any or all categories of that information. Directory information at Weber State University is currently specified to include name, address, telephone number, major (program of study), dates of attendance, degree(s) received, full-time/part-time status, and honors received. A student may have their public or directory information made confidential by submitting a written request to the Registrar's Office. If a student feels that information other than directory information has been made public in violation of this act, they may contact the Registrar's Office to file a formal grievance. Copies of the entire policy or information about specific procedures may be obtained from the Office of the Registrar. Transcripts Students may obtain official copies of their academic transcripts from the Registrar's Solution Center. There is a $5.00 charge for this service. For students who attended prior to Summer 2010, four fee-free transcripts will be provided if the request is made in person or by mail. 84 • • Transcripts picked up in person require photo identification. Transcript requests may be made by mail or online at www.weber.edu/records (telephone requests cannot be accepted) and should include the student's name, social security number or WSU student ID number, birthdate, student's signature and complete address where the transcript should be sent. • Transcript requests by anyone other than the student must be accompanied by a written release from the student that includes: o A sentence stating that you have given your consent to a friend or a relative to pick up your transcript o The name of your friend or relative that will be retrieving your transcript o Your full name and any prior names o Your Social Security Number or Student ID Number and birthdate o Your approximate dates of enrollment o Your signature The person receiving the record will be asked to show photo identification.

Grading Grade System The following grades and numeric point values are used to compute the cumulative grade point average (GPA). A Excellent 4.0 A- Excellent 3.7 B+ Good 3.3 B Good 3.0 B- Good 2.7 C+ Standard 2.3 C Standard 2.0 C- Standard 1.7 D+ Sub-Standard 1.3 D Sub-Standard 1.0 D- Sub-Standard 0.7 E Failure 0.0 UWUnofficial Withdrawal0.0 To calculate a cumulative GPA, the total number of grade points (the number of credit hours per course multiplied by the numeric points listed above for the grade) is divided by the total number of credit hours. Courses coded with an R in front of the grade (indicating academic renewal), or an E in the far right column of the form (indicating exclusion due to a repeat), are not used in computing the GPA, the graduation hours, or the total hours completed. Courses coded ND (non-degree) are not used in computing the GPA or the graduation hours completed, but they are included in computing the total hours attempted. Courses with the following notations in the grade column are not used in computing the GPA, the graduation hours, or the total hours completed (with the exception of CR-Credit courses which may be used toward graduation hours or total hours). AU-Audit • Indicates the student was allowed to sit in a class without earning credit or a grade. 85 • Audit students who fail to attend class without withdrawing may be issued a withdrawal (W). (See Registration section of this catalog.) CE-Continuing Education Unit • Students who enroll in a Continuing Education Unit through the Continuing Education Office will receive a CE grade. It is not counted in the WSU GPA or Total Hours, but can be listed on a transcript. CR-Credit • • • • Indicates the student registered for a course on a pass/fail basis and earned a C- or better. (See Registration section of this catalog.) Certain courses are offered on a credit/no credit basis only and letter grades are not given. Credit/no credit courses may only be used as electives in a student graduation requirements. Classes taken on a credit/no credit basis will not satisfy major, minor, or general education requirements with exception of those courses or programs of study approved by the University Curriculum and General Education committees and those courses approved by academic departments for credit by special examination. A maximum of 20 hours of credit/no credit electives may be used for graduation. I-Incomplete • • • • • Indicates the student was unable to complete the course for a legitimate reason (such as accident or illness) after having completed a substantial portion (approximately 80%) of the required work. A written contract between the student and the instructor indicates the work still to be done and the deadline for its completion (within 12 months). The student must complete remaining work without re-registering or attending the class during a subsequent semester. Credit hours are not counted until a letter grade is posted. All incomplete (I) courses must be completed prior to graduation. NC-No Credit • • • Indicates the student registered for a course on a credit/no-credit basis and earned less than a C-. Students who stop attending a class for which they are registered on a credit/no-credit basis without officially withdrawing will receive an NC grade entry for that class. Certain courses are offered on a credit/no credit basis only and letter grades are not given. NG-No Grade Reported • The instructor has not reported a grade for the course. SC-Special Credit • • • The student has received credit through an examination, waiver, or substitution for which they are not eligible for a letter grade. These credits are counted toward the total number of credits required for graduation but are not used to calculate the cumulative grade point average. Special credits may be used for graduation requirements as determined by the academic departments. T-Temporary Grade 86 • The course is being continued in the subsequent semester and a grade and credits will be calculated when the course is complete and a letter grade has been issued. The "T" grade is approved for specific courses only. UW-Unofficial Withdrawal • Indicates the student stopped attending the course without officially withdrawing. UWs are calculated as failing grades in the student's semester and cumulative grade point averages. W-Withdrawal • The student withdrew from the course in the interval comprising the 16th through the 50th business day of a semester or the 30th business day of a block. Withdrawals are not permitted after the 50th business day of a semester or 30th business day of a block. Changing of Grades • • • Grades may be changed only by the instructor who submitted the original grade. Students who feel their work has been evaluated unfairly should contact the instructor. Students who choose to complete a course on a credit/no credit basis may petition the Registrar's Office to have a CR grade replaced by the earned letter grade if they recently changed their major or minor and need the letter grade to meet graduation requirements for the new major or minor. Repeat Courses • • • • Repeated courses will be automatically flagged as part of the grading process at the end of each term. Each course (unless specifically listed as repeatable for credit in the course description) may be used only once in cumulative hours and GPA. A course will appear on the transcript each time it is completed, but it will be counted only once in total hours and only the most recent letter WSU grade received will be used to calculate the GPA (CR is not considered a letter grade and will not cause a previous grade to be discounted). Once a bachelor's degree has been posted to a student's permanent record, courses used for that degree may not be repeated to improve their GPA. Academic Renewal Policy 1. The applicant for academic renewal must be a currently enrolled undergraduate student or must have been enrolled during the previous term. Students who are not currently enrolled and who cannot obtain financial aid until their GPA is recalculated using Academic Renewal should begin the process with Academic Records and take written evidence of the initiation of this process to the Financial Aid Office. 2. Academic renewal may be requested only once during a student's academic career. 3. Once a certificate, associate, or bachelor degree is awarded by Weber State University or received as a transfer credit, any Weber State course(s) completed prior to the completion of that certificate or degree will not qualify for academic renewal. However, WSU courses completed after receiving a certificate or associate degree, but before completion of a bachelor degree, are eligible for renewal if they meet the requirements. 4. The policy does not apply to graduate students or students pursuing a second bachelor's degree. 5. Grades of "D+" or less which were earned six years or more prior to the petition date will not be computed in the GPA. 6. Academic requirements may not be satisfied by courses to which academic renewal has been applied. 7. Hours not used for GPA purposes are not used to satisfy total and upper division credit hour requirements. 8. The Academic Renewal Policy will apply only to courses taken at Weber State University. 9. Only the calculation of a student's GPA will be affected by this policy. 10. This policy applies to WSU GPA calculation only. A student's GPA when transferring or applying for graduate/professional schools will be calculated according to the policy of that institution, i.e. the receiving institution may average the grades or use the original grades. 87 11. Students who are applying for academic renewal and graduating in the same semester must notify the Graduation Department. Applications for academic renewal and detailed policy information are available at the Records Office or at www.weber.edu/records.

Gen Ed is shared by all degree-seeking students. Gen Ed credits (~34-41) account for about 2/3 of the Associate’s and 1/3 of the Bachelor’s degrees. Gen Ed provides broad exposure to diverse disciplines and is the foundation for developing intellectual tools and responsibility to the self and others. What is the mission of General Education? To provide students with foundational knowledge and intellectual tools that enhance and transcend their academic program of study. The big questions posed by Gen Ed courses address significant issues about the world. Gen Ed courses help students apply their learning and develop personal and social responsibility, which is demonstrated through signature assignments. Why is General Education required of all students? Gen Ed is not a random series of courses to “get out of the way” – it is a program of courses to lead the way to students’ future success in higher education, the workplace, and the community. Because Gen Ed courses are framed around a Big Question, which is tapped by a Signature Assignment, students repeatedly exercise Gen Ed Learning Outcomes (GELOs) and “cross-train” their mind. What are the General Education Program Requirements? Students are required to take CORE courses in Composition, Quantitative Literacy, American Institutions, Information Literacy and Diversity (~10-17 credits) and BREADTH courses in Creative Arts and Humanities (9 credits), Physical and Life Sciences (9 credits), and Social Sciences (6 credits). What are WSU Courses? The WSU Program provides students access to team taught, high-impact, interdisciplinary, variable credit (3-5), and limited enrollment WSU courses that satisfy requirements in two areas (core or breadth) of Gen Ed (with a passing grade). Students get the benefit of the expertise of two WSU faculty members in courses that engage their mind and challenge their thinking (see https://weber.edu/GenEd/WSU_Courses.html). What is the Gen Ed Certificate of Completion? The Certificate of Completion is awarded when students complete all core and breadth requirements with a minimum 2.0 GPA. Once awarded, it will appear on students' transcripts and is considered part of their official record. The Certificate allows students to “lock in” their Gen Ed credits and is transferable between institutions in the Utah System of Higher Education. What is the Interstate Passport? WSU participates in the Interstate Passport Initiative wherein a block of Gen Ed courses is accepted between institutions and noted on students’ transcripts for articulation purposes. WSU issues the Passport upon completion of the Gen Ed Certificate of Completion with a C or better in all Gen Ed courses. WSU Gen Ed requirements are met (except for American Institutions, a Gen Ed requirement mandated by the Utah State Legislature) for incoming students who have earned a Passport elsewhere (see https://weber.edu/passport). 99 CORE GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS COMPOSITION (EN) (3-4 credits) Complete ENGL 2010 Intermediate College Writing (3) OR ENGL 2015 Intermediate College Writing and Research (4) and earn a "C" grade or better: See the WSU Catalog or weber.edu/placement for prerequisite information.

The Weber State University Department of Communication seeks to promote an understanding of this process and the effective and ethical practice of human communication by focusing on how people create and use messages to generate meanings within and across various contexts, cultures, channels and media, including those delivered through technology. WSU Communication Department curricula and programs are grounded within a liberal arts tradition and are designed to help students live vital and successful lives in an ever-changing global environment. The curriculum for the major is designed to provide a liberal arts-based study of human communication combined with a course of study that prepares graduates for entry-level employment in Communication and Communication-related careers. The major also prepares students for graduate study in Communication and related disciplines. The Department is committed to enhancing student learning through required internships and through co-curricular opportunities afforded by our award-winning studentoperated organizations, including The Signpost, KWCR Wildcat Radio, Ogden Peak Communications, Studio 76, and Weber State Debate and Speech Team. Communication majors may select one of six emphasis areas: Civic Advocacy, Digital Media, Interpersonal & Family Communication, Multimedia Journalism, Organizational Communication, and Public Relations & Advertising. They may also select a Communication Teaching major with emphases in Communication Studies or Multimedia Journalism. Students may earn the Communication major as either a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science degree. The Communication minor and the Bachelor of Integrated Studies concentration in Communication (BIS) are designed to provide students with knowledge and skills in Communication that complement the major or other concentrations of study. The interdisciplinary associate's degree in Workplace Communication & Writing is a career-oriented program designed to prepare students for entry-level careers in many fields while also preparing students for bachelor's degrees in Communication. The Associate of Science in Communication is another two-year degree offered that benefits students from many professions where communication plays a critical role. In addition to emphasizing knowledge, understanding, and demonstrated competence in the skills of human communication, curricular and co-curricular programs emphasize the development of character in students.

English majors and minors, English teaching majors and minors, English majors with professional and technical writing emphasis and professional and technical writing minors, and English majors with creative writing emphasis, in consultation with English department advisors, can select programs individually designed to satisfy academic requirements. Furthermore, students preparing for careers in law, medicine, business, public relations and government service may find departmental courses highly beneficial. The English Department has also designed courses for the general student in introductory and intermediate writing and creative writing. Students transferring to Weber State as English majors, with most of their junior and senior status completed, are required to take a minimum of 9 upper division credit hours, minors a minimum of 6 upper division credit hours. This requirement also applies to transfer graduate students.

Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) Interdisciplinary Associate's The English Language and Literature Department participates in the interdisciplinary associate's degree in Workplace Communication and Writing (AS). Students who wish to enroll in this program should contact the English Language and Literature Department or one of the college advisors for the College of Arts & Humanities who will help them work out a schedule. The English Department offers Face-to-Face (F2F), Hybrid, and Online (OL) classes. The following definitions are intended to help faculty and students understand the differences between Face-to-Face (F2F), Hybrid, and Online (OL) classes taught in the English Department. 1. If less than 15% of the class sessions are online, a course will be designated Face-to-Face (F2F)-the current default for courses. 2. If 30−70% of class sessions are conducted online, normally but not exclusively in Canvas, courses will be designated Hybrid. This is consistent with WSU Online's definition. 3. Classes that are 100% online will be defined as Online (OL). 4. Classes will be designated as F2F, Hybrid, or OL prior to the time the department finalizes schedules for any given semester. The designation may not be changed once registration has opened or during the semester except in the event of extenuating circumstances such as injury, illness or university closure; Department Chair approval is required. 5. Within the various categories (F2F, Hybrid, Online) the table below illustrates how many online class sessions students can expect in each category. This number is dependent on how often a class meets: once a week (mainly evening classes), twice a week (TR or MW), and three times a week (MWF): How Many Sessions May Be Online? Course Scheduled As: F2F (up to 15% online) Hybrid (30-70% online) 1x/week: (14-15 classes/semester) 2 sessions, maximum Minimum 4 / Maximum 10 sessions 100% 2x/week: (TR or MW: 30 classes/semester) 4-5 sessions, maximum Minimum 9 / Maximum 21 sessions 100% 3x/week: (MWF: 42 classes/semester) 6 sessions, maximum Minimum 13 / Maximum 30 sessions Online (100% online) 100% 188 English (AA) The Associate of Arts Program in the Department of English is designed for students who are passionate about reading and writing, who like being creative, and who want to develop professional skills for their careers.

We prepare majors and minors to function effectively in a foreign language by offering courses in literature, culture, linguistics, pedagogy and language for professional purposes. A bachelor of arts degree is offered. Students may select a regular major, a teaching major or a major with a commercial emphasis in French, German or Spanish. Regular and teaching minors are offered in these three languages as well. In addition, a Japanese minor is offered, and the department participates in Asian Studies, European Studies and Latin American Studies minors and in a departmental Honors Program. A language emphasis for the BIS degree requires a minimum of 18 hours, 15 of which must be upper-division course work. Courses in other languages may be offered as need and resources allow. The curriculum is based on the National Standards for measuring proficiency. Each course is designed to foster linguistic skills and to increase the student's ability to participate in the culture. Foreign Language Requirement for the Bachelor of Arts Degree The Bachelor of Arts degree includes a foreign language or ASL (American Sign Language) requirement which may be met by one of the following: 1. Documentation of a proficiency level of "Intermediate Low" or better through an examination administered by the WSU Foreign Language Department or through an examination by a recognized testing agency. 2. Completion of WSU foreign language course ASL 2020 or CHNS 2020 or FRCH 2020 or GRMN 2020 or ITLN 2020 or JPNS 2020 or PTGS 2020 or SPAN 2020 with a grade of "C" or higher, or comparable transfer credit. 3. Completion of any upper-division WSU foreign language course with a grade of "C" or higher, or comparable transfer credit. 4. Students for whom English is a second language may meet the BA foreign language requirement by verifying their proficiency in their native (non-English) language in cooperation with the Foreign Language Department and verifying their proficiency in English as a Second language by passing the ESL Special Examination. 5. Documentation of a minimum proficiency level in American Sign Language through an examination administered by the American Sign Language/Interpreting program at Salt Lake Community College (SLCC). The signer must "produce and maintain American Sign Language with continuity and precision." 6. Completion of SLCC's American Sign Language Course ASL 1050 with a grade of "C" or higher, or comparable transfer credit. 7. Completion of twelve semester-hours of foreign language. Obtaining Foreign Language Credit for Prior Language Experience Students with prior language experience may obtain lower-division foreign language credit by completing one of the following options: 1. Students may obtain credit for 1010, 1020, 2010 and 2020 by passing a higher numbered course with a minimum grade of "C" 2. Students may obtain credit for 1010, 1020, 2010 and 2021 through examination, but only in those languages in which the Department of Foreign Languages has expertise (usually limited to French, German, Japanese and Spanish). This examination is administered regularly by the department. Credit for Humanities General Education (2020) cannot be obtained through examination. Upon payment of a nominal fee, hours earned through either option are recorded as "credit" on the transcript and do not affect the student's GPA. The department may accept results from other foreign language testing agencies as evidence of proficiency. Application for credit is to be made at the office of the Department of Foreign Languages. 213 Generally, students may not earn lower-division foreign language credit for proficiency in their native language. If a student's second language is English, then English may fill the BA foreign language requirement (see specific BA-major department advisors). Interdisciplinary Minors The Foreign Languages Department participates in the Asian Studies, European Studies, Linguistics, and Latin American Studies Minor Programs. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) Oral Proficiency Requirements The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) has defined a scale for the evaluation of the language proficiency of students. The ACTFL Proficiency scale has four levels: Novice, Intermediate, Advanced and Superior. The Department of Foreign Languages requires that students achieve a determined proficiency level, depending on the students' goals. In addition, instructors assume that students entering any class have acquired the entry-level proficiency indicated for that class. (These levels are indicated in parentheses by the description of each course. N=Novice; NH=Novice High; IL=Intermediate Low; IM=Intermediate Mid; IH=Intermediate High; AL=Advanced Low.) Novice (N) Students at this level have no experience in the language they are studying. They begin by learning the sound and spelling system and by memorizing words and phrases. During the course, they will progress to the point of being able to create simple sentences, to ask some questions, and to initiate, sustain and conclude simple social tasks more than half of the time. Novice High (NH) At the Novice-High level student's progress from the ability to respond simply with learned utterances to the ability to create language face-to-face, to ask and answer simple questions, and to create sentence-level constructions. Intermediate Low (IL) At the Intermediate-Low level students continue to build mastery of personal social-oriented informational tasks and move to a higher level by practicing informational tasks beyond the immediate and personal. Students will move from simple-sentence to more complex sentence-level discourse. They will practice narration, description and comparison, but mastery is not expected. Intermediate Mid (IM) Students at this level build on an ability to perform informational tasks beyond immediate and personal needs while they continue to practice narration, description and comparison. In addition, students begin practice in supporting opinions and hypothesizing in the language. They move from complex sentence-level structures to paragraph-level discourse. Intermediate High (IH) At this level students can function at the Advanced level most of the time. They still need practice narrating, describing and comparing, and Linking sentences together smoothly. In addition, they encounter more tasks that require them to support opinion and to hypothesize. Student's progress from complex sentences to paragraphs to extended discourse. Advanced Low (AL) Students at this level function at the Advanced level all or almost all of the time. Students have no difficulty with extended discourse, narration in all tenses and explanation. They are able to and use language both oral and written in complex and sophisticated ways. 214 American Sign Language (ASL) (AA) An Associate of Arts with an American Sign Language (ASL) major will indicate that a student has completed all WSU AA degree requirements and the core curriculum required for the Bachelor of Arts in ASL. It will also indicate students are prepared to enroll in upper division ASL courses.

Policies and Procedures The following policies are subject to change. For current information, see the latest Performing Arts | School of Music student handbook and make an appointment with a music area advisor. Freshman Registration and the Music Core All freshman music majors and minors entering WSU as full-time students should register for the following courses: MUSC 1006, MUSC 1110, MUSC 1130, MUSC 1150, MUSC 1901, MUSC 1681 or MUSC 1682, and large ensemble. Piano Pedagogy and Piano Performance majors do not register for MUSC 1150. General Policies and Performance Requirements 1. 2. 3. 4. All entering music majors and minors, including transfer students, must audition with the respective program faculty for admittance to that program. A $445 Applied Music Fee is charged to music majors and minors for instrumental or vocal lessons. These lessons are 45 minutes in length and require attendance at a weekly master class. These lessons may be taken for one or two credit hours. There is also an option for two 45 minute lessons each week for two credit hours plus master class attendance and a research paper or project. The fee is $890. A $320 Applied Music Fee is charged to students registering as non-music majors or minors. These lessons are 30 minutes in length and may not be used as credit for music majors or minors in their primary performance area. A limited number of slots are available for students registering in this category. All music education, vocal, keyboard and string pedagogy majors should consult with the latest student handbook, and their major advisor. Schedule for Performance Evaluations (Juries) 1. 2. 3. Performance evaluations will be regularly conducted and scheduled: 1. At the end of Fall and Spring semesters. 2. By special request for evaluation during the year upon agreement of the student, the teacher and the committee. All special requests must be scheduled through the area head. All music majors and minors must take performance evaluations each semester. Performance evaluations are required until completion of the student's final recital as stipulated by the degree program. Students completing a junior or senior recital are excused from that performance area's performance evaluation the semester in which the recital is completed. 273 Procedures for Performance Evaluation (Juries) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. All incoming music majors and minors and all transfer students and current students who change their major or minor to music subsequent to their initial enrollment at Weber State University will enroll at the 1000 level of private instruction. A student may be placed in a higher competency level at the completion of any evaluation. A student will not be permitted to progress to the 3000 level until they have met with their major advisor. The advisor will review the student's graduation progress and determine whether it is in the student's best interest to move to the 3000 level. Student admittance to each competency level is granted only by general consent of the area faculty upon satisfactory completion of a performance level evaluation appropriate to that level. Refusal by the appropriate area faculty to allow admittance to the next level may be appealed by the student provided there is consent of the private teacher. 1. This appeal should be made directly to the area head, who will in turn consult with the faculty regarding a repeat performance evaluation. 2. Only one appeal will be accepted at each performance evaluation. More than three (3) semesters of study at any one competency level due to lack of improvement on the part of the student will be cause for a recommendation from the appropriate faculty that the student not continue as a music major or minor. Failure to attend proficiency evaluations will result in a grade of "E" being given for the private lesson during that semester. Recital Performance 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. All Bachelor of Music and Bachelor of Music Education students must participate in at least one general student recital or master class per semester. This should normally be a solo appearance, but this determination is left to the discretion of the applied music teacher. All music majors except those in the Bachelor of Arts and pedagogy programs, must present a half-hour formal junior recital upon reaching the 3000 competency level. All music performance minors must present a half-hour formal junior recital upon reaching the 3000 competency level. The student must register for MUSC 3991 during the semester the recital will be presented. All Bachelor of Music students must present a one-hour senior recital while at the 4000 competency level. The student must register for MUSC 4991 during the semester the recital will be presented. Repertoire for the senior recital must not contain music performed on the junior recital. Completion of a senior recital will exempt a student from further proficiency level evaluations. All students presenting a senior recital must perform that recital before a faculty review committee not less than two weeks prior to the recital date. The review committee will consist of the student's applied teacher, the appropriate area head, and one other music faculty member of the student's choice. The review committee will be present at the public performance of the senior recital and will recommend pass/fail for the recital. All students must complete a recital approval form for junior or senior recitals. The recital form must be completed and signed by the area head and applied teacher prior to scheduling any required faculty preview performance. Failure to complete a junior or senior recital in the semester in which the student is registered for the recital will result in a grade of "E" for the recital. Recital/Concert Attendance All music majors and minors must attend 24 music area recitals, concerts, and/or community concert events per year while enrolled in applied music at the 1000 and 2000 level. Attendance reports are required for two years and are maintained in the music office.

But perhaps most of all we make sense of our environment through what we see. The art, architecture, mass media and even the furniture in our spaces bear distinct messages that influence our decisions and enrich life. Creative processes are exciting. Students of art and design contribute new expression to the vitality of our visual environment and learn to interpret what is seen through trained observation. Innovative thinking is absolutely necessary for success and must be balanced against research and critical judgment. Emphasis is placed on writing and the critical evaluation of artistic products. Students gain experience at preparing exhibits and portfolios for eventual professional activity. Studies in art and art history offer windows of understanding to other cultures, both past and present. This is one of our primary concerns in preparing citizens for productive relations in an increasingly multicultural society. Seventy-eight different courses are offered by the Department of Visual Arts. These span traditional areas such as art history, art education, ceramics, drawing, small metals/jewelry, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and visual communication. The department is continually expanding into emerging modes of expression involving digital video, digital photography, animation, interactive design, and sound. Classes are enhanced by public lectures, seminars, workshops and special sessions by critics, historians, and visiting artists. Weber State University supports three Bachelor's degrees in the visual arts with specializations in most of the areas mentioned above. The Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees provide a broad liberal arts background, a solid base for many careers or further study. The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is more professionally focused with high concentrations of studio art and art history. The BFA is for students who wish to move directly into professional work in art or design, or those who intend to pursue graduate study in the visual arts. Senior exhibitions are required for most Bachelor of Fine Arts majors. The Elizabeth Dee Shaw Gallery exhibits art that exemplifies the ideas and values of the curriculum. This serves our students and the public interest as well. Exhibitions involving regional, national, and internationally recognized artists serve a vital role in the cultural life of the community. The Gallery organizes at least six exhibitions each year. All are free and open to the public. Transfer of Credits Transfer students must present an official transcript and a portfolio to petition course substitutions for visual arts program requirements. A minimum number of departmental residency hours is required for completion of degree programs: 19 credit hours for the BFA, 12 hours for BS and BA programs, 6 hours for minors. The University requires students seeking a second baccalaureate degree to complete a full year in residence and a minimum of 30 total credit hours. Studio Fees Studio fees are required in most visual arts classes. Check the current course schedule for exact amounts. Asian Studies Minor The Department of Visual Arts participates in the Asian Studies Minor Program. Students who wish to enroll in this program should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) 354 Art (AA) An Associate of Arts with an Art major will indicate that a student has completed all WSU AA degree requirements and the Studio Foundations curriculum required for the Bachelor of Arts in Art.

The degree is designed to prepare students for transfer into an engineering program at other universities in Utah, or throughout the United States, that offer four-year engineering degrees. Because many pre-engineering graduates will transfer to the University of Utah or Utah State University, the WSU Pre-Engineering program has official transfer agreements with these two schools. In planning a program of study, students should be aware that most pre-engineering courses have mathematics and science prerequisites and that improper scheduling of courses can lengthen the time required to complete the degree. Students should also be aware that requirements may vary according to the university to which the student wishes to transfer. Students are therefore strongly encouraged to meet with the Pre-Engineering coordinator prior to beginning their program. The Associate of Pre-Engineering degree has fewer general education credit hours than the Associate of Science (AS) degree. Therefore, in order for a student to obtain a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in engineering, he or she will have to take additional general education courses at WSU and/or the receiving university. Alternatively, a student may earn the AS degree, but this degree may take longer than the APE degree because it contains not only pre-engineering courses but also a full complement of general education courses. The AS degree has the potential benefit, however, of satisfying all the general education requirements at either the University of Utah or Utah State University. Advisement All Pre-Engineering students are strongly encouraged to meet with the Pre-Engineering coordinator at the beginning of the program and at least once annually for course and program advisement. Pre-Engineering students are also encouraged to obtain advisement from the applicable engineering department at the receiving university. Admission Requirements Declare your program of study (see Enrollment Services and Information). No special admission or application requirements are needed for this program. However, students entering the Pre-Engineering program are expected to have taken college preparatory mathematics and physical science courses in high school. The standard entry level mathematics course for pre-engineering majors is MATH 1210 - Calculus I. The prerequisite for MATH 1210 is MATH 1080 QL - Pre-calculus, or MATH 1050 QL College Algebra plus MATH 1060 QL - Trigonometry, or placement through examination. Students who are not ready to take MATH 1210 upon entering the Pre-Engineering program should consult with the Pre-Engineering coordinator, who will recommend remedial courses that will prepare the student for calculus, physics and engineering courses.

Weber State students feel confident in this decision knowing their desire is well supported through the Dr. Ezekiel R. Dumke Family Pre-Medical Program and student resources. The journey starts by understanding that there is not a "pre-medical major;" rather, you select a major in any discipline and include the courses that schools providing professional training in your area of interest require. Regular communication with pre-medical advisors is encouraged as you plan and carry out your pre-medical preparation.

We see a faint connection between plants and our basic needs for food, shelter, clothing, and energy, but only in a rather limited way. Remote connections are made, if at all, between the history of exploration; present-day social, economic, and political conditions; and access to plants and plant products. Interest and understanding of plants is becoming much more intense. During the last few decades we have seen an unprecedented increase in the variety of plants and plant products available in our markets as the popularity of ethnic cuisines has grown. Also, worldwide, people are becoming increasingly aware of sound nutrition and the role plants play in our general health. We now appreciate plants as reservoirs of untold numbers of pharmaceuticals important in our war on diseases. These interests are stimulating our collective concerns about understanding the past, present, and future uses of plants. Recently we have begun to address our most serious problems, such as the loss of ecosystem integrity and habitats for animals dependent upon vegetation. This we have done through increased understanding of plants. We now know how valuable plants are in maintaining the health and stability of the global environment and that in its survival is the survival of the human species. Botany is the study of all aspects of plants, including systematics, morphology, diversity, metabolism, and ecology. Through a study of plants, students gain an understanding and an appreciation of life at the cellular, organismal, population, and community levels of organization. The study of Botany can lead to a variety of professional careers, including soil science, forestry, range management, biotechnology, plant breeding, horticulture, environmental science, natural medicine, and teaching. The Botany Department at Weber State University offers undergraduate training in all areas of botany. Students who are interested in specializing in a particular area are encouraged to meet with an advisor. Students who are interested in Field Botany can earn a certificate of proficiency in field botany while working on their Botany (BS) or as a stackable credential with a Biology (AS). The Botany Department cooperates with the departments of Microbiology and Zoology in offering a Biology Composite Teaching (BS) Major for individuals who are interested in teaching Biology at the secondary school level and a Biology (AS). The Botany Minor provides valuable support for students majoring in a variety of other fields, including anthropology, geosciences, and zoology. Herbarium The Herbarium of Weber State University is housed in the Tracy Hall Science Center, room TY345. It contains more than 28,000 preserved plant specimens, primarily collected from Utah and the Western United States. This collection serves as an important reference for students, faculty, biologists, and all others who need to know the identity of plants or learn something about their geographic distributions and ecological associations. Interdisciplinary Programs The Botany Department participates in the interdisciplinary Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis Program. Students who wish to enroll in this program should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of the catalog.) The Department of Botany also contributes courses and faculty expertise to the interdisciplinary Environmental Science major (BS) sponsored by the College of Science. 574 Field Botany Certificate of Proficiency The Certificate of Proficiency in Field Botany provides 24 semester credit hours in botany, the minimal botany course work needed for federal job code 0430, botanist. This certificate can be earned as a standalone certificate, as a +1 with the Biology AS, or while working on a Botany BS. An additional 5 credit hours in botany and an appropriate mathematics course are required beyond the requirements for the botany minor. • Program Prerequisite: Not required. • Grade Requirements: Students completing a certificate in Field Botany must have a minimum grade of "C" in all courses used toward the certificate (a grade of "C-" is not acceptable). • Credit Hour Requirements: A minimum of 27-28 credit hours is required for the certificate. • Program Code: 6045CP • CIPC: 260301 Advisement Advisor: Dr. Barbara Wachocki, 801-626-7223, bwachocki@weber.edu Program Learning Outcomes • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • The chemical and molecular machinations operating within all biological processes.

Earth science knowledge is vital to society, as we explore for natural resources, mitigate the impacts of natural disasters, and work to protect the quality of the environment for future generations. Environmental scientists are problem solvers; they use multi-science approaches to investigate and address a wide variety of environmental issues. Both Earth and environmental scientists rely heavily of geospatial technologies (GIS, remote sensing, drones) to study and model Earth processes and features. This is an important and exciting time to be involved in Earth, environmental, and geospatial science careers. The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences offers bachelor's degrees in Geology, Applied Environmental Geoscience, and Earth Science Teaching, and supports the Physical Science Composite Teaching degree. The department offers minors in Geology, Geospatial Studies, and Earth Science Teaching. A certificate of proficiency in Geospatial Analysis is also available. Every citizen should have a basic knowledge of how our planet, including its climate system, works. Thus, the department offers a wide variety of physical science (PS) general education courses. Interdisciplinary Programs The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences contributes courses and faculty expertise to the interdisciplinary Environmental Science major (BS) sponsored by the College of Science. In addition, the department participates in the interdisciplinary Environmental Studies Minor Program and the Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis Program. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should contact the program coordinator, who will help them select a combination of courses to fit their particular educational goals. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of the catalog.)

David Walters; Instructors: Natalie Anderson, Shannon Dixon From data mining to forensics, mathematics is the language of choice for an ever-increasing number of disciplines. The scientist, the engineer, the actuary, the financial planner - all use algebra, geometry, calculus and statistics. But also, the voter needs to understand these concepts, albeit at a less advanced level, to reach informed decisions about a multitude of issues from utility rates and retirement saving to information security and global warming. The Department of Mathematics offers a variety of courses (from general interest to advanced levels of applicability), two minors, departmental honors, and five majors. The Mathematics major may be the best choice for someone planning to go directly to graduate school; the Applied Mathematics major prepares one for a job that uses mathematics; the Mathematics Teaching major prepares students to be teachers of mathematics in elementary through high school, and the Computational Statistics and Data Science major is for students who can convert big data into actionable insight, improve decision making, and provide a competitive advantage for their employers. We also offer an Associate's of Science degree in Mathematics that complements all STEM degrees.

These laws govern the behavior of objects at all scales, from the smallest subatomic particles to the entire observable universe. In between, physicists study nuclear reactions, the interaction of atoms with light, properties of materials, the chaotic dynamics of fluids, and the evolution of stars and galaxies, among many other applications. Our courses in physics introduce all of the most important fundamental laws and many of their applications. Equally valuable, however, are the skills that students develop in these courses, from analytical thinking and problem solving to experimental design and interpretation. Majoring in physics can thus prepare a student for a variety of careers in research, education, business, industry, and government. The Department offers three major programs: Physics, Applied Physics, and Physics Teaching. The Physics major places emphasis on understanding nature at the deepest possible level, and offers options that emphasize fundamental theoretical physics, astrophysics, computational physics, and physics of materials. Each of these options provides a strong foundation for graduate work. The Applied Physics major places more emphasis on physical phenomena and hands-on experience. Thus, it is more suitable for those planning to go either directly into industrial employment or into graduate programs in certain applied fields. The Physics Teaching major is designed specifically for those planning to teach physics at the secondary school level. Students who are majoring in other disciplines are encouraged to consider a minor in physics, which includes a year of introductory physics plus eight credit hours of additional physics courses. These electives may be chosen to emphasize basic theory, experimental techniques, or applied subfields such as optics and astrophysics. 668 Physical Science (AAS) • • • • Grade Requirements: Minimum overall GPA of 2.00 or "C".

Program Learning Outcomes • • • • • • • • • • Students can trace scientific understandings, theory, and models back to their sources in their primary discipline. Students demonstrate how scientific knowledge is derived, reviewed, and communicated. Nature of science. Scientific knowledge is based on evidence that is repeatedly examined, and can change with new information. Scientific explanations differ fundamentally from those that are not scientific. Integration of science. All natural phenomena are interrelated and share basic organizational principles. Scientific explanations obtained from different disciplines should be cohesive and integrated. Science and society. The study of science provides explanations that have significant impact on society, including technological advancements, improvement of human life, and better understanding of human and other influences on the earth's environment. Problem solving and data analysis. Science relies on empirical data, and such data must be analyzed, interpreted, and generalized in a rigorous manner. Organization of systems: The universe is scientifically understandable in terms of interconnected systems. The systems evolve over time according to basic physical laws. Matter: Matter comprises an important component of the universe, and has physical properties that can be described over a range of scales. Energy: Interactions within the universe can be described in terms of energy exchange and conservation. Forces: Equilibrium and change are determined by forces acting at all organizational levels.

It includes a tremendous diversity of subdivisions and approaches. These range from using electron microscopy to study cells, to field examinations of natural populations. Some zoologists focus their studies on a specific group of animals; others specialize on problems or processes, such as those in physiology or genetics, which are common to many groups. Zoologists have made many important contributions to our understanding of the natural world. Furthermore, they benefit humankind through their work in areas such as medicine and environmental conservation. Although our majors pursue several tracks, many are involved in pre-medical professional training. We have an excellent record of placing students in the finest medical, dental, veterinary, and physical therapy programs. The faculty strongly encourage majors to pursue guided research, particularly through the department's thesis program. All students are urged to consult with the department early in their education. Arrangements can then be made for the student to be matched with an appropriate advisor who can offer course and career suggestions. DNA Laboratory The Department of Zoology maintains a DNA Laboratory on the first floor of the Science Laboratory building in the College of Science. It is a modern facility with state-of-the-art equipment for DNA isolation and analysis. The laboratory is used for student course work, faculty-supervised student research, and faculty research. Interdisciplinary Programs The Zoology Department participates in the interdisciplinary Neuroscience Minor and the Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis programs.

Enrollment procedures for the first two years of AFROTC, known as the General Military Course, are the same as for any other college course. The GMC consists of one hour of course work and two hours of leadership laboratory each week. During the sophomore year, cadets may apply for the last two years of the program, the Professional Officer Course. Requirements for entry into the POC are listed earlier under General Requirements. If selected for the POC, GMC cadets are scheduled to attend a four-week field training course at an Air Force base during the summer months. Students enrolled in AFROTC may major in any field. Two-Year Program. For entry into the two-year program, two academic years must remain at the undergraduate or graduate level, or a combination of the two. Two-year program applicants must qualify by meeting the same criteria as students in the General Military Course who are applying for POC entry. (See General Requirements.) Each applicant must successfully complete a six-week field training course at an Air Force base during the summer months. This course provides academic and military preparation for entry into the POC. Those fulfilling all requirements, including the successful completion of field training, complete enrollment procedures upon return to campus.

The curriculum is rooted in science to ground factual knowledge. However, its trunk is solidly comprised of social science and humanities courses because they teach the application of science in policy-making, business decisions and historical precedent even as they call upon the arts for their expression and upon ethics in consideration of health and social justice issues. The minor reaches across campus because all disciplines play an essential role in shaping environmental thought. Students will gain an appreciation for local, national and international environmental issues and problems as well as their potential solutions. They will develop a personal philosophy about the environment's role in their lives and their own ability to affect nature and their physical environment by making ethical choices. • Grade Requirements: A grade of "C" or better is required for all courses. • Credit Hour Requirements: A minimum of 25 credit hours is required, at least 15 of these must be upper division (numbered 3000 or higher). • Program Code: 6066 • CIPC: 030104 Students must select courses from outside their major academic department whenever a choice is offered.

Political scientists study governments: The origins and preconditions for governments, the growth and evolution of governments, and the decline and conflict among governments. Political scientists also are interested in how governments are structured, how governments make decisions, the policies that result from political decisions and the consequences of these policies, and how governments manage societal and international conflicts. Political scientists also study people: Their values and positions on issues, their preferences among candidates, their support for public officials, and their appraisals of their government. True to their oldest academic traditions, political scientists retain their concern with the fundamental questions of how governments ought to be constituted, and how they can best serve their citizens. The study of political science has value in several different ways. First, it contributes to a solid liberal arts education and preparation for citizenship. The Greek word "idiot" was used to refer to one who took no interest in the affairs of state. Today, no less than twenty centuries later, it is incumbent upon all useful citizens to learn something about the political system in which they will spend their lives. Educated people ought to know something of the nature of government even if they have no professional interest in political science. Second, a degree in political science furnishes an excellent background for graduate study in political science, law, administration, business, and international relations. Political science helps students develop reasoning and analytical skills and build competence in oral and written expression. In addition, the department of political science requires students to acquire basic skills in statistical analysis and computer competency. Third, there are some careers for which an extensive training in political science can be most useful. This is true especially for those planning to seek careers in higher education, the legal profession, state and local government, urban planning, the federal bureaucracy, journalism, the military, law enforcement, teaching, the civil service, or in any of the proliferating organizations that seek to monitor the political processes to influence content of public policy. Further, the training students receive in political science will be useful to students no matter what their ultimate career choices. The comprehensive career guide, Careers and the study of Political Science, is available from the department chair. Internships Internships are offered through the Political Science program and the Walker Institute of Politics and Public Service to provide students practical understanding of political processes in governmental organizations. Many students have received practical training and gained valuable knowledge by working with United States senators, members of Congress, and Utah State senators and representatives. Moreover, some students work as interns in City and County administrations and in the Utah Legal Services office in Ogden. Pre-Law The pre-law advisement program is designed to assist students in scheduling courses, in preparing for the law school admissions test, and in obtaining admission at one of the nationally recognized law schools. Data on the placement of graduates in law schools show the success and the immense value of the program to students. (Dr. Richard Price acts as the Pre-Law Advisor.) Interdisciplinary Minors The Political Science Department participates in the Asian Studies, Environmental Studies, European Studies, International Politics, Latin American Studies, Legal Studies, and Public Administration Minor Programs and the Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis Program. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the 757 program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) Philosophy The philosophy program offers courses that fall under three general categories: 1) Liberal Education: teaches the ideas of influential past and contemporary thinkers who have sought to understand the world and our experience of it. These ideas concern such topics as the nature of truth and reality, the limits of knowledge, standards of right and wrong, the experience of beauty, and world religions. 2) Methodology: emphasizes methods of sound practical reasoning, deductive logic, and language analysis. 3) Application: critically analyzes non-philosophical disciplines. For example, the philosophy of democracy analyzes the value assumptions behind democratic forms of government, while medical ethics seeks to identify and resolve dilemmas arising from conflicts between medical technology and the quality of life. 758 Philosophy (BA) • • • • • • Program Prerequisite: Not required.

The program is designed for students to learn the core content of psychology and the foundational methods of psychological inquiry, as well as to have opportunities to integrate and apply psychological concepts. Students majoring (including teaching majors) in Psychology have a program of study which provides training in the foundation in the field but allows for additional coursework in students' areas of interest. BIS students are trained in the conceptual and methodological foundation of the discipline while pursuing topics of interest in the field and related ones. Minors are free to pursue topics of interest to augment their major without the requirement that they acquire the discipline's foundational knowledge, skills, and abilities. Psychological Science Curriculum, Requirements, and Policies The Department of Psychological Science offers a 45 credit hour major, a 20 hour BIS emphasis, and an 18 credit hour minor. The curriculum provides classes addressing the conceptual, methodological, and statistical knowledge of the discipline (Core General Courses), the breadth of the discipline (Core Content Courses), and the integration and application of the discipline (Capstone Experience). Additional classes provide greater content area specialization (Elective Group A) and experiential or individualized instruction opportunities (Elective Group B). All Psychological Science major (including teaching major) and minor students must meet with the designated Department Adviser as soon as they declare to plan their course of study. BIS students with an emphasis in psychology must additionally have their psychological science courses approved by the designated Department Adviser (Advising Policy). To count towards students' degree in Psychology, psychology courses must be passed with a grade of C or higher (Course Grade Policy). Students declaring a Psychological Science major, minor, or BIS emphasis in a given catalog year can apply previously completed courses towards their degree (see Course Grade Policy) as long as the courses were taken no longer than 15 years prior to the date of declaration (Course Sunset Policy). A student with a Psychological Science major, minor, or BIS emphasis must earn at least a 2.50 Psychological Science GPA for courses being used for graduation (Psychological Science GPA Policy). Students may transfer undergraduate psychology credits from any other accredited institution of higher education toward their degree (see the Sunset Policy) by submitting a request through the University's Transfer Office. Courses taught in departments other than Psychology will not generally transfer as Psychology courses. Lower division (1000- or 2000-level) courses at another institution will not generally count as equivalent to upper division (3000- or 4000-level) WSU courses. To challenge a transfer articulation, please contact the Department Chair with documentation including the syllabi from the courses taken (Transfer Articulation Policy). Students who are majoring in Psychological Science must complete at least 9 credit hours of Psychological Science courses (see Course Grade Policy) in residence at Weber State University; students who are minoring in Psychological Science must complete at least 6 credit hours of Psychological Science courses (see Course Grade Policy) in residence at Weber State University (Residency Requirement).

Social work education takes place in four year undergraduate and two-year graduate programs and leads to professional degrees at the baccalaureate and master's levels, respectively. These levels of education differ from each other in the level of knowledge and skill they expect students to synthesize in practice competence. These distinctions and the discretion provided by the tradition of academic freedom contribute to the desired uniqueness of each program. The Social Work program at Weber State University is accredited at the baccalaureate level by the Council on Social Work Education. Social Work is a self-regulating profession with sanction from public, private and voluntary auspices. Through all its roles and functions and multiple settings, social work is based on knowledge and competence in evidence-based practice skills, and is guided by professional values and ethics. With its central focus on the transactions between people and their environments, social work uses research and theory from social, behavioral, and biological sciences as well as from social work practice itself, developing a unique perspective on the human condition. Sound curriculum designs give the educational program the integrated focus inherent in the profession's enduring philosophical base. This ensures historical continuity and provides a stable framework from which to assess and incorporate practice innovations, emerging knowledge, and interdisciplinary exchanges. This combination of curricular stability and flexibility is essential if the program is to respond effectively to changing social forces and provide leadership in the profession's ongoing quest for progressive social change. It is, therefore, essential that all professional social workers have in common knowledge, skills, and values that are generally transferable from one setting, population group, geographic area, or problem to another. The Social Work program is designed to: (1) prepare students for generalist entry-level social work practice; (2) prepare students for graduate social work education; (3) prepare students to take the Social Service Worker licensing examination; (4) provide a liberal, interdisciplinary learning experience to help students in their understanding of and adjustment to living in a democratic society; and (5) provide continuing educational opportunities for baccalaureate and paraprofessional social welfare providers. Gerontology Gerontology is the multi-disciplinary study of the processes of aging from conception to death with special focus on the later life cycle and the problems associated with aging and the aged in society. Individuals working in the field of aging need a broad range of knowledge that transcends a single academic discipline. The Gerontology Program at Weber State University is designed to: (1) provide preparation for employment in both the private and public sector including working with senior citizen centers, nutrition programs, housing projects, long-term care facilities, state and local aging programs, Hospice, research, senior volunteer programs, job services, retirement planning and other age-related employment; (2) provide continuing education for job enrichment and preparation for persons already in the aging employment sector through consultation, workshops and academic courses to enhance career opportunities; (3) provide general education courses designed to assist students in understanding and dealing with older persons within their family and society at large; (4) encourage students to go directly into aging employment and/or to seek graduate degrees in gerontology or related fields leading to positions in national, regional and local aging network sectors. Note: No new majors are being accepted in this program at this time. However, the minor, BIS emphasis, and non-degree certificate programs are active and available. 809 Social Work (BA) Social Work Major Bachelor's Degree (BS or BA) • • • • • • Program Prerequisite: Must be accepted to the program (see Admissions Requirements described later in this section).

Sociologists investigate the structure of groups, organizations, and societies, and how people interact within these contexts. Since all human behavior is social, the subject matter of sociology includes, but is not limited to, street crime and delinquency, corporate downsizing, how people express emotions, welfare or education reform, how families differ and flourish, divisions of ethnicity, gender and social class, religious cults, medicine, media, and other social phenomena. Because sociology addresses the most challenging issues of our time, it is a rapidly expanding field whose potential is increasingly tapped by those who craft policies and create programs. Few fields have such broad scope and relevance for research, theory, and application of knowledge. Sociology is a popular major for students planning futures in such professions as law, business, education, architecture, politics, public administration, urban planning and development, human services, and a myriad of other professions. It also provides a solid foundation for pursuing graduate degrees in related fields. Although a career as a sociologist requires a Master's Degree or PhD, an undergraduate education in sociology can be applied to almost any profession a student pursues. Interdisciplinary Minors The Sociology Department participates in the Asian Studies, Ethnic Studies, European Studies, Legal Studies and Women's Studies Minor Programs and the Urban and Regional Planning Emphasis Program. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) Anthropology Anthropology Coordinator: Dr. Mark Stevenson, 801-626-6244 Anthropology takes a holistic approach to describing and explaining human differences and similarities around the world and throughout time. It looks at humans both culturally and biologically within an ecological context. It examines contemporary humans as well as those of the historic and prehistoric past and searches for patterns of human existence. Specialized fields include archaeology, linguistics, ethnology, and biological anthropology. Students are taught to question and examine the significance of beliefs, attitudes and prejudices, and to understand the anthropological position of relativism and valuing cultural and biological variation. The program prepares students for a broad range of public and private sector employment in anthropology-related fields or to enter professional or graduate schools appropriate to their interests. Anthropology is an essential discipline in the 21st Century, contributing knowledge for successful living and working in our diverse human world. Interdisciplinary Minors The Anthropology Program participates in the Asian Studies, Ethnic Studies, Environmental Studies, European Studies, Latin American Studies, Linguistics, and Women's Studies Minor Programs. Students who wish to enroll in one of these programs should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs.

Pifer Location: Annex 11/Mail Code 4501 Telephone Contact: Jane Michels, 801-626-6518; Fax 801-626-7651 Military Science (Army ROTC) focuses on leadership development. Students pursue the major of their choice while studying Military Science, and graduate with the ability to function effectively as leaders. Upon completion of Army ROTC and graduation from college students become commissioned officers in the active Army, Army Reserve or National Guard. Instructors, uniforms and equipment are provided at no cost to the student or the University. All contracted students receive $300- $500 per month ($3,000-$5,000 per academic year). Army ROTC also covers the cost of tuition and fees for Army ROTC scholarship students and provides a book allowance of $1,200 per academic year. The Margin of Difference. Army ROTC cadets learn to be leaders and receive hands-on experience in managing physical, financial, and human resources. They develop self-confidence and superior decision-making skills. Employers value these leadership qualities and recognize associated potential. Four-Year Program. The traditional Army ROTC program covers four years consistent with normal undergraduate progression (freshman-senior). The four-year program is divided into two parts called the basic course and the advanced course. The basic course is usually taken during the first two years of college. It covers subjects such as land navigation, leadership development, small unit tactics, weapons marksmanship and military history. This program is designed for high performing students who wish to try Military Science without obligation, while enhancing their leadership skills and self-confidence. Upon successful completion of the basic course, students are eligible to enter the advanced course. Advanced course requirements are normally completed during the junior and senior years. The advanced course further develops and refines leadership competencies, and qualifies the student for a commission in the United States Army. Advanced course students receive a $450 (Junior year) - $500 (Senior year) per month tax-free subsistence allowance [$4,500 (Junior year) $5,000 (Senior year) per year]. Two-Year Program. This is a special program for junior and community college transfers or students who did not take Army ROTC during their first two years of college. To enter the two year program, a student first participates in a four-week leadership training course. This usually takes place between the sophomore and junior year. Students are paid for attending this instruction, have the opportunity to compete for two-year scholarships, and may receive academic credit. Scholarships. Army ROTC provides numerous scholarship opportunities. All WSU contracted cadets receive some form of financial assistance, which can include up to 100% tuition, fees, books and other costs paid. High school seniors may qualify for the four-year Army ROTC scholarship. College students may qualify for four, three, or two-year scholarships. Students may choose from two different options. The first option pays the cost of tuition and fees and a flat rate for textbooks and classroom supplies. The second option pays the students up to $10,000 for housing and the same flat rate for textbooks and classroom supplies. The Green to Gold scholarship allows Soldiers serving on active duty to leave the Army early and attend college/ROTC full-time while receiving scholarship benefits. Other scholarship opportunities include: room and book grants and the Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) program. Nursing students qualify for additional incentives. Call or visit the Department of Military Science for details. Placement Credit For Veterans. Veterans may qualify for advanced course placement based on prior military experience. Concurrently, they can take full advantage of veteran's benefits and receive financial aid for Army ROTC participation. Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP). This program is available to cadets who wish to serve in the Army Reserve or National Guard while attending college and pursuing a commission through Army ROTC. SMP students are eligible to receive Reserve drill pay, tuition assistance, other monetary incentives, and $350-$500 per month ($3,000-$5,000 per academic year) from Army ROTC. Call or visit the Department of Military Science for details. Leave of Absence. Students, including scholarship recipients, who wish to take a leave of absence to serve a mission for their church can do so conveniently before the start of the Junior year. Commission Requirements. In order to qualify for a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army, each student must: 1. Complete all required Military Science instruction while attending college as a full-time student, and obtain a baccalaureate or higher degree prior to age 31 (age waiver possible for qualified students). 2. Meet medical and physical fitness standards. 3. Be a U.S. citizen. 4. Successfully complete the Leadership Development and Assessment Course. 872 5. Be recommended by the Professor of Military Science. Service Obligation. There is no military service obligation for basic course students, unless on scholarship. Advanced course and scholarship (contracted) students incur an obligation to serve in the active Army, Army Reserve or National Guard. 873 Military Science Minor/BIS • • • • • Foundational Courses: In order to enroll in courses leading to the Military Science minor, students should complete MILS 1010, MILS 1020, MILS 2010, MILS 2020 and MILS 2400.

The curriculum model enables student progression through various preparation levels in accordance with individual ability, aspirations, career goals and changing life circumstances. The program ensures entry level practitioners by providing a foundation from the physical, biological, behavioral and nursing sciences for application in caring for clients in a variety of nursing environments. The nursing program embraces three levels of preparation for nursing practice: Associate's Degree Nursing (ADN), RN to BSN (BS), and Master of Science in Nursing (MSN). Educational offerings provide distinctive purposes and expectations for each level of nursing preparation while recognizing common areas of achievement within each level. Competency standards define graduate characteristics at each preparation level. Four entry options are available for students. Two of these lead to licensure by examination at AS/AAS levels. The third option leads to a baccalaureate degree in nursing. The fourth option leads to a master of science in nursing with either a concentration in nursing administration or nursing education. Entry Options Registered Nurse (RN) [AS]: Two years are required for students entering this option. Students selecting this option must complete nursing major credits plus fulfill university general education credits required for graduation with an associate of science degree. Students selected for an associate of science degree in nursing may take the NCLEX-PN through the equivalency clause in the Utah Nurse Practice Act at completion of the first year. An additional year of course work entitles graduates to take the National Examination for licensure as a registered nurse. PN to RN Program (RN Completion) [AS/AAS]: This entry option is open to PN's and those eligible to take the NCLEX-PN. Students selecting this option must complete one additional year of nursing major credits plus fulfill university general education credits required for graduation with an associate of applied science / associate of science degree. 880 Registered Nurse to BSN (RN-to-BSN) [BS]: The BSN Option is available to registered nurses who have completed an AS degree in nursing. Potential students must have an active unencumbered Utah license or plan to successfully pass the NCLEXRN exam within the first semester of the BSN program. Previous graduates of an AAS degree will need to complete the WSU general education requirements for the AS Degree prior to requesting admission to the RN to BSN program. Admission is dependent upon program space availability. Master of Science in Nursing (MSN): The MSN program is designed to prepare 1) nurse administrators, 2) college-level nursing faculty, and 3) nurse educators employed within healthcare institutions. The concentrations of nursing educator and nurse administrator will prepare students for advanced careers in nursing. Both concentrations are specifically intended for individuals with nursing experience who want to advance their careers as nurse administrators or college faculty. Please refer to Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) for requirements. Licensure Applicants who have been convicted of a felony, treated for serious mental illness or substance abuse should discuss their eligibility status with the Utah State Board of Nursing. Acceptance to the nursing program does not assure eligibility for a RN license. The Utah Board of Nursing makes final decisions on issuance of professional licensure.

They function under the direct supervision of an Emergency Physician or Registered Nurse and are certified for such functioning by a state Emergency Medical Services agency. The institutional certificate and two-year applied science degree program in Paramedic Studies are based on a national curriculum designed to provide an academic background in science, health related fields, and communication using critical thinking and assessment based management. The program prerequisites provide the general requirements and foundation that prepares the student to meet the demands of the paramedic courses. Satisfactory completion of the prerequisite requirements are required prior to starting the paramedic sequence and include: 1. a "C" or better in ENGL 1010, MATH 0990 , Anatomy and Physiology classes, and Medical Terminology; and 2. an overall GPA of 2.7 or above; and 3. Current state EMT Certification; and 4. a score of 75% or better on the departmental EMT assessment exam on no more than two attempts The longstanding Utah Bureau of EMS policy requiring one year of EMS experience or Advanced EMT has been relaxed. Eligible students may wish to consider PAR 1005 and PAR 1006 to gain EMS field experience prior to entering the paramedic program. This program may require more than two years for completion depending upon the timing it takes for an individual to complete the prerequisite requirements. Weber State contracts with authorized clinical and field agencies to precept students for EMT and paramedic certification. Background criminal investigation and drug testing of students is required prior to starting PAR 2000 in the fall semester. "The WSU Emergency Healthcare Department's paramedic program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (www.caahep.org) upon the recommendation of the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP)." The paramedic program will "prepare competent entry-level Paramedics in the cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (behavior) learning domains," with or without exit points at the Emergency Medical Responder, Emergency Medical Technician, and Advanced Intermediate levels. Acceptance to the paramedic program does not assure eligibility for a state or National Registry certification. Utah or a related state Office of EMS makes the final decisions on the issuance of professional licensor or certification. For students that may have a disability or testing accommodation concerns you must contact the Utah Bureau of EMS or National Registry of EMT's.

Dental hygienists perform their services in a variety of settings, and are members of the dental team who are licensed to provide services directly to the client. Dental hygienists provide oral health education, remove deposits from around the teeth and gums, expose dental radiographs and deliver other treatments to prevent and manage dental disease. The dental hygiene curriculum is three years in length. The first year may be completed at any accredited college or university and consists of pre dental hygiene courses. These courses include: chemistry, anatomy, physiology, microbiology, English, public speaking, psychology, sociology and nutrition. This year of pre-dental hygiene courses is followed by two years of specialized study in dental hygiene. The two year dental hygiene curriculum includes practical experience in the WSU Dental Hygiene Clinic. Students also rotate to off-campus sites for extended clinical experiences. Students who successfully complete the three-year curriculum are awarded an Associate of Science degree from Weber State. A fourth year leading to a bachelor's degree is optional. To become a licensed dental hygienist, each student must successfully pass a written National Board Exam and a practical regional exam. The Dental Hygiene Program is accredited by the American Dental Association's Commission on Dental Accreditation, a specialized accrediting agency recognized by the Council on Postsecondary Accreditation and the United States Department of Education.

In addition, many students use the programs in the department to prepare themselves for graduate studies in health administration and other related disciplines. The curriculum is organized so that students may tailor their studies in any one of the following program options: Health Administration, Health Information Management (HIM), Public Health, and Health Information Technology. All study emphases lead to a Bachelor's Degree except for Health Information Technology, which leads to an Associate of Applied Science degree. Two Institutional Certificate programs are also housed within the HAS Department in both Healthcare Coding and Classification as well as a PostBaccalaureate certificate program in Health Information Management. A Master's Degree (with two different formats) is also offered in Health Administration within the HAS Department. For more information on this program visit www.weber.edu/mha. The HAS Department was developed to better prepare health practitioners and others to take advantage of the challenges and opportunities facing them as vital members of the nation's health care team. Bachelor Degrees • • Health Administration: Designed to provide health care practitioners and others with the skills and competencies to function as supervisors and managers in health care settings. In the changing health care environment, new and challenging demands are placed on health care personnel to expand their conventional roles to include increased administrative responsibilities. This curriculum provides a working foundation in management and interpersonal skills, while at the same time introducing the student to the health care delivery system and its many and varied issues and challenges. Graduates are not only better prepared to assume increased management responsibilities, but to do so with a better understanding of the complex system in which they work. The degree is certified by the Association of University Programs in Health Administration. Health Information Management: This profession focuses on health care data and the management of health care information resources. The profession addresses the nature and structure of health data and the translation of that data into usable forms of information which support the health care of individuals and populations. HIM professionals collect, integrate, and analyze primary and secondary collections of data and manage information resources related to the research, planning, provision, and evaluation of health care services. This emphasis provides students with the knowledge and skills necessary to become self-directed learners who possess critical-thinking skills and problemsolving abilities, communication and interpersonal skills, a commitment to life-long learning, and important ethical values. The program fosters the acquisition of leadership abilities and systems thinking necessary for adapting careers within a changing health care environment. The HIM emphasis is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information Management Education, making students eligible to write the national certification exam of the AHIMA, the Registered Health Information Administrator. Public Health The Bachelor of Science in Public Health prepares graduates to take entry-level jobs in epidemiology and public health administration and local and state department of health. Graduates will also be prepared to fill positions supporting public health research at academic institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and private research organizations. Additionally, completion of the degree will prepare students to enter a graduate program in Public Health, Biomedical Informatics, or Health Administration. Associate Degree Health Information Technology: Health Information Technology is a program offered under Health Administrative Services. Health Information Technicians perform the essential functions of maintaining health data and records in acute, long-term, and ambulatory health care settings. Opportunities also exist in related health care settings, e.g., insurance companies, medical clinics, computer software vendors, and health maintenance organizations. These functions include, but are not limited to, the coding of 913 diseases and operations, maintaining statistics, transcribing medical reports, performing DRG and utilization review procedures, supervising employees. In addition to classroom and laboratory course work, students participate in a supervised clinical experience in a hospital medical record department or other health information environment. The Health Information Technology program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information Management Education. Successful completion of the Health Information Technology two-year program leads to an associate of applied science degree and the student is then eligible to sit for the national certification exam. Students passing this national examination may use the professional designation Registered Health Information Technician. Institutional Certificates Healthcare Coding and Classification: This program develops the ability of students to use the International Classification of Diseases, version 10 (ICD-10-CM), and the International Classification of Diseases, version 10, Procedural Coding System (ICD10-PCS) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Common Procedural Terminology (CPT) of the American Medical Association.

Kendal Beazer, Justin Rhees, Michael Moore; Instructor: Chere Clawson Medical Laboratory Scientists (MLS) and Medical Laboratory Technicians (MLT) - also known as Clinical Laboratory Scientists (CLS) and Clinical Laboratory Technicians (CLT) - perform laboratory tests on patient samples to provide information needed to diagnose or monitor treatment. These professionals do everything from providing cancer-testing results, to predicting the correct antibiotic to prescribe, to typing the correct blood for surgery. Examples of common laboratory tests include tests to detect anemia, diagnose diabetes and strep throat, and provide a transfusion to an accident victim. Doctors rely on laboratory test results to make informed patient diagnoses. Patient history along with physical signs and symptoms are vital, but most diagnoses need confirmation that only laboratory tests can provide. The laboratory professionals provide answers to life-and-death questions every day. The MLS program follows a ladder approach from the Associates of Applied Science (AAS) degree through a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree. Students interested in applying to the campus associate level MLT program must first meet with an academic advisor and complete prerequisite courses. If accepted into the MLT program, successful completion of two academic semesters leads to an Associates of Applied Science degree, and allows graduates eligibility to national certification (ASCP MLT). Qualified students wishing to continue can apply for acceptance into the MLS BS program, which generally requires two years of study and provides eligibility to national certification (ASCP MT) upon successful completion of all academic requirements. Students interested in the online MLS AAS Program must be employed, or have the support of, a clinical laboratory. Students will receive the didactic (lecture) portion of each course online, while completing specific laboratory competencies in the clinical laboratory under the supervision of qualified clinical laboratory mentors where they work.

These patients may be in the newborn nursery, surgical/medical/rehabilitation units, outpatient clinics, Emergency Room, or cardiac/shock-trauma/burn/neurologic intensive care units. Respiratory Care Practitioners [RCPs] are employed in both acute and long-term care hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and home health agencies. Licensed RCPs perform therapeutic and diagnostic procedures under the direction of a physician. Respiratory care practitioners are competent in basic patient care and assessment, medical gas administration, aerosol and humidity therapy, medication administration, hyperinflation techniques, bronchopulmonary drainage and percussion, mechanical ventilation, airway management, advanced cardiac life support, pulmonary function studies, and blood gas sampling and analysis. Patient education, smoking cessation/nicotine intervention, and health promotion are also included in the RCP scope of practice. The respiratory therapy program follows a career-ladder approach from the pre-professional level through a Bachelor of Science degree. The pre-professional level requires two academic years, leads to an Associate of Applied Science degree, and qualifies the student for the Respiratory Therapy Bachelor of Science program providing eligibility to national credentialing and licensure to practice respiratory care (RCP). Acceptance to the pre-professional level requires program completion through the Bachelor of Science degree level. Licensure Applicants who have been convicted of a felony, treated for serious mental illness or substance abuse should discuss their eligibility status with the Utah Department of Professional Licensing. Acceptance to the respiratory therapy program does not assure eligibility for a RCP license. The Utah Department of Professional Licensing makes final decisions on issuance of professional licensure. Any student that is convicted of a felony will be dismissed from the program. Accreditation The Respiratory Therapy Program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Respiratory Care (CoARC), P.O. Box 54876 Hurst,Texas 76054-4876. To fulfill its mission, the department sets the following goals for graduates of the program: 1) To prepare graduates with demonstrated competence in the cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills), and affective (behavior) learning domains of respiratory care practice as performed by registered respiratory therapists (RRTs) and, 2) to prepare leaders for the field of respiratory care by including curricular content that includes objectives related to acquisition of skills in one or more of the following: management, education, research, advanced clinical practice (which may include an area of clinical specialization).

Dumke College of Health Professions Admission Advisor regarding general education guidelines. Program Learning Outcomes • • • Cognitive skills (problem solving) are facts and concepts that respiratory therapist must know and apply in practice. In didactic courses, learning objectives are evaluated in traditional methods and through face-to-face interactions or in online formats using "virtual labs" and in clinical scenarios. Learning objectives include words like discuss or explain a particular patient care concept. Psychomotor skills (task competency) are performance based activities encountered in laboratory and/or clinical settings. Simple re-demonstration of skills is rarely sufficient as a learning outcome but repeatedly practiced in peer-topeer practices, instructor pass-offs, and with clinical preceptors at the bedside. Learning objectives include action words like analyze, apply, or compute data presented in patient care pathologies. Affective skills (attitude) are measured in attitudes or motivations of students in exhibition of favorable behavioral traits and in developing empathy for patients. These behavioral traits are evaluated by clinical preceptors for arriving "on time," being prepared and/or showing interest in activities scheduled for the day. These can be viewed as employee characteristics that include statements like, "would you hire this student" at the conclusion of a clinical day. Clinical preceptors file daily evaluations (and students evaluate clinical preceptors for reciprocity) as feedback on these performances and in achieving the stated learning objectives. Graduation satisfaction surveys are completed at the conclusion of the curriculum by graduate surveys. Additionally, cognitive, psychomotor, and affective skills are annually measured by employer surveys completed within 6 months of program completion and reported to our accreditation commission (CoARC) which remain on-file for a period of three years.

The DNP program of study has two emphases: a family nurse practitioner emphasis and a leadership emphasis. Both emphases focus on direct and indirect advanced nursing practice leadership and healthcare provision to influence the health outcomes of individuals and populations from a systems approach. The DNP-Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) emphasis prepares nurses with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) to become eligible for national FNP certification, which is an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) and future healthcare leadership. The DNP-Leadership emphasis prepares nurses who possess a BSN and a master's degree in one of the followingnursing, public health, business, or health administration for healthcare transformation and leadership. Graduates of the DNP program are prepared to fully evaluate, translate, and implement science for improved healthcare outcomes and healthcare systems improvement. The practice-focused DNP degree is distinctly different from a Ph.D. or research doctoral degree program. The Annie Taylor Dee School of Nursing is responsive to national APRN academic and practice mandates recommendations and community workplace demands for leadership and access to primary care in our regional health care systems. The DNP degree at WSU ensures optimally prepared nurse practitioners and nurse leaders who achieve the university's dual mission; integrating access, learning, and community in the service of high-quality health care and favorable outcomes for regional patients, families, and communities. Nationally, the DNP degree is replacing the Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) for all APRNs as this terminal degree in the field becomes the requirement by 2025. The DNP degree is the preferred degree for advanced nursing practice for the provision of direct and indirect care (executive leadership, health policy, informatics, and population health). Admission Admission is competitive; therefore, the criteria listed on the application form should be considered as minimum standards. Applicants must apply for admission to the DNP-Leadership program. Applications may be obtained online on the Annie Taylor Dee School of Nursing website http://weber.edu/nursing.

Curriculum Only students who are admitted to the program are eligible to take courses within the department. The curriculum is "lock step", meaning that students must complete the program by passing each exam and each course before being eligible to progress and take classes in subsequent semesters. Year 1 The first year of training consists of classroom instruction enhanced by simulated clinical experiences designed to provide students with a foundation in medical knowledge, skills, behaviors, and attitudes required for the practice of medicine. The curriculum builds on prerequisite coursework and clinical experiences students complete prior to matriculation and utilizes an integrated systems-based approach that eliminates compartmentalized knowledge and helps students achieve clinical acumen by creating meaningful application between biomedical science, clinical science, pharmacotherapy, and professional practice. 965 Content synthesis is further enhanced by integrating a variety of teaching methods, including lectures, labs, team- and inquiringbased learning, and evidence-based practice.

(801) 626-6534 or advisebusiness@weber.edu. • major declaration is provided by the Goddard School Advising Center online at https://weber.edu/goddard/Declare.html. • major selection, employment preparation, including internships and resumes, and business etiquette is provided by the Goddard School Career Center, Brett Merrell, WB 213, (801) 626-7914. Credit Policy 1. 2. Obsolete Credit: John B. Goddard School of Business & Economics credits and certain MATH courses (MATH 1050, 1080, 1090, or 1210) earned more than ten (10) years earlier than the proposed date of graduation will not be accepted toward University or major requirements unless validated through a challenge examination or approved by the appropriate academic department chair. Waiver Requests: Any exceptions to the printed Goddard School graduation requirements must be approved by the appropriate academic department chair prior to waiving, substituting, or taking the course(s) in question. Transfer Credit Policy 1. 2. Transfer students should submit transcripts from all institutions of higher education to the Weber State University Admissions office. Student Recruitment at (801) 626-6050 will consult with Admissions to determine which general education credits will be accepted by Weber State. Most courses with a grade of "C" or higher are eligible for credit. However, some courses, such as the General Education MATH and ENGL Core requirements, may require a higher grade. Students should establish transfer of general education work prior to meeting with the John B. Goddard School of Business & Economics Advisement Center. The Advising Center will consult with Goddard 1023 3. 4. 5. 6. School academic departments to determine credit toward specific Goddard School requirements and address further transfer issues. The Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) Transfer Credit Guide has been established to indicate articulation of equivalent courses between the in-state public colleges and universities. Credits from business courses transferred from institutions not covered by the USHE Transfer Credit Guide are accepted only if approved by the appropriate Goddard School academic departments. Documentation which allows the Advising Center and department chairs to assess the content of courses taken may be required. This documentation may include: catalogs or bulletins; course outlines or syllabi; and transcripts. In the majority of cases, course credit which is not obsolete (see above) taken at institutions accredited by AACSB International will be accepted and applied to the Goddard School's graduation requirements. The Goddard School may require validation for courses taken at other institutions before credit is applied to Goddard School requirements. This validation may consist of either: passing a challenge exam; or completing the next course in a related sequence with a grade of "C" or better. Validation may be required where upper division credit is sought for lower division course work taken at another institution. Students are reminded that the Weber State catalog states, "Acceptance of credit should not be confused with its application. Transfer credit may or may not apply to Weber State's graduation requirements, regardless of the number of credits transferred. Credit other than that intended wholly to meet general education requirements, will be applied to Weber State's specific degree program requirements upon the recommendation of the appropriate department chair." This means credit that is accepted by Weber State may, or may not, apply to specific requirements within the Goddard School. Students transferring credits from institutions outside the U.S. should follow the guidelines for International Students. Transfer credits should appear on the student's WSU transcript before meeting with the Goddard School Advising Center or major department chair. Jerry & Vickie Moyes Center for Supply Chain Excellence The Jerry & Vickie Moyes Center for Supply Chain Excellence provides outstanding educational and professional development opportunities for the Weber State Community. For instance, the Center sponsors a broad range of experiential learning activities including case competitions, international study abroad tours, field consulting studies, and mentored-student-led research. The Center also works closely with the business community to advance supply chain thinking and practice, offering development seminars on the "Whole-Brain Supply Chain". Finally, the Center funds research in the areas of supply chain collaboration, process improvement, risk, and sustainability. The Center is located in room 205 of the E.O. Wattis Business Building. Center for Tax Education & Research The primary mission of the Center for Tax Education & Research is to provide high quality tax education to WSU students, interested members of the community and business professionals. The Center also actively supports tax research efforts by tax faculty, works with employers to supply jobs to Master of Taxation graduates, fosters relationships with alumni, and supports student recruiting efforts. Additionally, the Center offers continuing education programs to tax professionals and engages in other tax-related activities such as providing tax return preparation assistance to qualifying members of the public at no cost through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, hosting student tax competitions, and organizing seminars to discuss contemporary issues in taxation. Center for Leadership in Corporate Social Responsibility The Center for Leadership in Corporate Social Responsibility is an action-research center within John B. Goddard School of Business & Economics.

Goddard School of Business & Economics offers a number of curricular programs and study opportunities designed to enhance the global expertise of our students. • The Goddard School annually offers faculty-led study abroad programs to countries all over the world. Typical programs are 10 to 14 days in duration. • The Goddard School is a member of the Transatlantic Business School Alliance (TABSA), an alliance that unites four European and four U.S. business schools to enable students to have cultural and educational experiences across geographic boundaries. Students may study in a two-to-four-week summer program, in a semester or year-long exchange, or in a double-degree two-year program in which students earn a degree in Business Administration from Weber State University, and a second bachelor's degree from the foreign partner university in international business. The European partners are: KEDGE Business School (Marseille, France); Bremen University of Applied Sciences (Bremen, Germany); University of Hertfordshire (Hatfield, England); and University of Valencia (Valencia, Spain).With respect to tuition, Goddard students attend foreign partner universities as pure exchange students. This means that they pay normal Weber State tuition and fees without any additional tuition charge at the partner institution. • In addition to TABSA partners, the Goddard School has signed cooperative agreements that allow for student exchanges with universities in the following countries: Austria (IMC University of Applied Science Krems, University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria in Steyr); Argentina (Austral University); Belgium (Université Catholique de Louvain); China (Shanghai Normal University); Germany (Hof University of Applied Sciences); Japan (Konan University); South Korea (University of Seoul, Incheon National University, Sookmyung Women's University, Sangmyung University, Kyungpook National University); Poland (University of Warsaw); Spain (University of Alicante). As with TABSA partners, Goddard School students pay normal Weber State tuition without any additional tuition charge. • The Goddard School offers an International Certificate which may be awarded with a baccalaureate degree offered by the School. This program description can be found under Institutional Certificate in the Degrees and/or Major Minor list. 1025 Department of Business Administration and Marketing Department Chair: Jennifer Anderson Location: Wattis Business Building, Room 216 Telephone Contact: Amy Holmes, 801-626-6075 Professors: Anthony Allred, Clinton Amos, Shaun Hansen, Michael J. Stevens; Associate Professors: Jennifer Anderson, Jesse King, David Noack, David Read, Bryant Thompson; Assistant Professors: Wendy Fox Kirk, Skyler King; Instructors: Brandon Stoddard, Matthew Thue Business Administration The Business Administration (BSBA) degree is a general management degree. This major has been described as an undergraduate MBA because of its emphasis on breadth of education across all of the functional areas of business. This degree would be especially appropriate for students who wish to prepare for a generalist career in management rather than a focused career in a specialized area of business such as finance or marketing. It is also a very appropriate degree for the entrepreneurial students who aspire to start or run their own business one day. Business Administration Human Resource Management (HRM) Emphasis The student who concentrates in Human Resource Management prepares to apply the knowledge and skills needed to design, manage and deliver key organizational HRM functions. Through this, the HRM professional aids the effective alignment of people management objectives with organizational strategy for the purpose of increasing organizational efficiency and effectiveness. In addition to the John B. Goddard School of Business & Economics core requirements, the HRM student studies organizational behavior, leadership and teamwork skills, continuous improvement, effective communication, and information technology. HRM students will also take specialized courses in employment and labor law, employee training & development, recruitment & hiring decisions, and compensation & benefits. Marketing This is the only marketing program on WSU's campus. Students concentrating in marketing specialize in course work that deals with business activities involved in developing, communicating, delivering, and exchanging value for all stakeholders. Courses provide students with traditional and digital marketing concepts and experience in applying them. These courses prepare students to assume responsible positions in industry. Those desiring careers in marketing research or higher levels of corporate management are well prepared to enter graduate programs of their choice. 1026 Bachelor of Science Business Administration (BS) • • • • • • • • Program Prerequisites: Most business and economics courses with numbers above 3000 require formal admission to the John B.

The career field selected will determine the educational goals a student must set and will be an important element in deciding which of the many avenues towards a bachelor's degree available in economics is best suited for you. Economics provides general analysis of decision making where resource constraints are present. Within the area of business, the fields of economics and finance are perhaps the most rigorous in terms of the use and application of mathematical and statistical reasoning. Students with a bachelor's degree in Business Economics are generally prepared to start their careers in any area of business, but are particularly prepared for jobs that call for data analysis, pricing, purchasing, and report writing. Business economists are often employed in private business firms in the financial, retailing, and industrial sectors. A complete career guide is available from the department chairperson. A degree in Business Economics is also regarded by graduate business schools as excellent preparation for advanced work toward an MBA, as well as advanced degrees in other business related disciplines such as human resource management, public administration, finance, and international business. Students seeking an advanced degree in economics, law, other social and behavioral sciences, urban and regional planning, actuarial science, etc., should also investigate the Economics Major. Center for Economic Education The Department has established a Center for Economic Education. Its basic function is to help educators in secondary and elementary schools improve their understanding and knowledge of economics. This will assist them in providing their students with the fundamental economic tools needed to evaluate complex national and international events that are a part of their daily existence. 1046 Associate of Science Business and Economics (AS) • • • • • Program Description: The Associate of Science (AS) degree in Business and Economics provides foundational skills and knowledge in accounting, economics, statistics, management information systems, as well as other functional business areas of the students' choice.

Supply Chain Management (SCM) provides students with the specialized skills to manage key value-added processes, inspire creative decision-making, and collaborate effectively with decision makers across the firm and around the world. The SCM program offers a whole-brain approach that incorporates relational and interpersonal skills with the technical side of logistics and operations management. Management Information Systems (MIS) prepares students to successfully navigate the business world by building technical, managerial and communication skills. The depth and breadth of technical know-how gained in the MIS program prepares students for a successful career as an Information Systems professional, helping organizations support business processes and solve business problems. Supply Chain Management (SCM) Supply Chain Management is "the value creation engine of every organization." Everyone who participates in the creation and distribution of a product is part of a supply chain, and a Supply Chain Management major learns how to choreograph and manage this entire chain of activities from suppliers, manufacturers, service providers and distributors, to consumers. With its origins dating back to 1969, Weber State University's Supply Chain Management program is one of the oldest programs in the United States. Our program covers the depth and breadth of SCM, giving our students the foundation for successful careers in logistics, purchasing, operations, and other areas of supply chain management. Employers recognize our graduates as some of the best in the field, and the demand for Weber State University SCM graduates is strong. Traditionally, graduates from our SCM program enjoy the highest average starting salary of all business majors, and job opportunities exceed the number of graduates. Global and area companies hiring our SCM graduates include Kimberly Clark, Toyota, Ford Motor Company, Autoliv, Orbital ATK, Intermountain Healthcare, Wal-Mart, J.C. Penney Company, UPS, Northrop Grumman, and the U.S. Air Force. The endowed Jerry & Vickie Moyes Center for Supply Chain Excellence supports opportunities in research, scholarship, and experiential learning for faculty and students. We are fortunate to enjoy an active relationship with our industry partner board which provides real-world insight for our program along with mentoring and internship opportunities for our students. In addition to many opportunities for internships, our Supply Chain Management majors frequently also receive several scholarships from professional associations and area companies as well as from the Moyes Center. Management Information Systems (MIS) A bachelor's degree in Management Information Systems provides students with a balanced education between business and information technologies. It provides students with a broad background in basic business knowledge, problem solving, and computer technology and skills. Graduates from this major are prepared to help organizations use computer technology to support their business processes and solve their business problems. Technologies that all MIS majors study include software development, computer architecture, database design, computer networks, and systems analysis and design. In addition, students may also elect to study advanced networks, web development and management, data analytics, information security and computer forensics. The MIS lab provides hands-on experience in the latest technologies, including 3D printing, machine learning, and AI technologies. Management Information Systems graduates may work for a large organization, specializing in one aspect of information technology, or as one of a few people supporting all areas of a smaller firm's computer technologies. The job will involve working with people to understand how they do their jobs and where computers can be most effective, implementing computer-based solutions, training people to use computer systems, installing and troubleshooting hardware, software, or networks, and helping management understand and plan for the best new technologies to integrate in the organization's business processes. 1075 MIS graduates are well prepared for graduate school as well, frequently accepted to top graduate programs. The MIS Advisory Board maintains strong relationships with national and local employers, ensuring our program is developing graduates with skills to meet the current and future needs of business. 1076 Associate of Science Management Information Systems (AS) • • • • • Program Prerequisite: Most business and economics courses with numbers above 3000 require formal admission to the John B.

If proof of completion of the bachelor's degree has not been received prior to the start of an admitted student's first semester in the MBA Program, they will not be allowed to start classes in the program until an official transcript with the posted bachelor's degree has been received by the MBA Program office. Completion of a course in college algebra or equivalent is required to enroll in MBA courses. Basic computer competency is also required. Grade Requirements: To earn the MBA degree, candidates must complete all MBA program courses with a grade of "C" or higher. In addition, the overall cumulative MBA Program GPA must be 3.0 or higher, excluding transfer credits from other WSU graduate programs or other institutions. An elective course in which a grade lower than "C" is earned may be repeated or another elective may be taken in its place. Failure to maintain a 3.0 grade point average after two consecutive semesters, will result in academic probation in accordance with departmental policies. Students must meet with their academic advisor after notification of academic probation. Two consecutive semesters of academic probation will result in suspension from the program. A waiver of suspension will be considered according to due process. Credit Hour Requirements: The MBA degree ordinarily requires a minimum of 36 semester hours of graduate work for persons with a recent undergraduate business degree from an AACSB-accredited business school. Individuals with business undergraduate degrees from non-AACSB-accredited schools may be required to complete additional foundations course work contingent on departmental analysis of their undergraduate transcripts. For persons with a non-business undergraduate degree, the program typically requires 54 semester hours, including foundations or leveling courses. Exemptions from foundations courses may be made based on equivalent undergraduate coursework. Specific program and course requirements are shown below. Program Code: Business Undergrade (4026MBA1), Non-Business Undergrade (4026MBA2) CIPC: 230101 Major Field Exemption Students with business-related undergraduate degrees are exempted from the required MBA course in their major field of study (e.g. accounting, finance, economics, information systems, marketing, management, supply chain management, human resources) and will take an additional elective MBA course in its place. The MBA Program Office must approve each MBA student's plan of study. The plan of study will show all courses necessary to meet the degree requirements. A formal plan of study will be filed when a student is accepted into the program. If students deviate from their program of study without PRIOR written and documented departmental approval, those courses will NOT be counted toward graduation. Taking unapproved courses will be a costly and time intensive mistake. If you are in doubt about a course, please call or email the office and make an appointment with your advisor BEFORE starting the class. Non-MBA Electives Qualified students may take up to two MACC (Master of Accounting), MHA (Master of Health Administration), or MTAX (Master of Taxation) courses as MBA electives, counting six credit hours toward their MBA elective requirements. Four MHA courses may be counted towards MBA elective requirements for dual MBA-MHA degree students. Please contact the department to assure you meet pre-requisites for your desired elective and for assistance in getting an over ride in order to add the class to your schedule. Qualified graduate students currently accepted into other Weber State University grad programs may cross over and take classes from the MBA. Students must meet all pre-requisites for any MBA class they may choose. An email from your graduate advisor stating that they will accept the MBA class as an elective into your program is required. Have them email staylor13@weber.edu requesting the course with the student's W number. An over ride to register will be placed in Banner and the student notified that they can add the class to their schedule. 1102 Transfer Credits/Residency Requirements The minimum residency requirements for the Goddard School MBA Program is two-thirds of the required number of credit hours for undergraduate business majors (the 36-hour track) and for non-business majors (the 54-hour track).

Three principles are central to our mission: • Education - The first, and foremost, is fostering learning through excellent teaching, individual attention, and scholarship, which develops, assesses, and disseminates good practice. • Research - The second is the application of theory to practice through applied research and scholarship, and the utilization of applied research to further learning in the classroom and through co-curricular activities. • Community - The third is advancing contemporary practice and creating learning opportunities by contributing to the accounting profession and to business and the community. Accounting is defined as the process of gathering, classifying, interpreting, and presenting financial and non-financial information for decision-making purposes to diversified user groups. The field of accounting encompasses the wellrecognized profession of public accounting including auditing, management advisory services, and tax services; professional careers in industry such as management accounting (controllership), cost accounting, and internal auditing; careers in various governmental agencies and other accounting and business-related fields. Certification in public accounting in Utah requires 30 semester hours beyond a baccalaureate degree. Students should take advantage of opportunities to prepare themselves to sit for one of the professional examinations (such as Certified Public Accountant, Certified Management Accountant, and/or Certified Internal Auditor) at the culmination of their accounting program. Finance After studying in the School's core courses about the various functions in organizations, the student who concentrates in finance learns how to efficiently acquire, allocate, and control a firm's financial resources. A background in finance will prepare the student to: (1) conduct detailed financial analyses; (2) relate the financial environment of an organization to the policies that organization will need for optimum returns; and (3) select and analyze investment opportunities for both individuals and organizations. 1114 Bachelor of Science Accounting (BS) • • • • • • • • • Program Prerequisites: Most business and economics courses with numbers above 3000 require formal admission to the John B.

Preparation is also provided for teachers of students with mild to moderate disabilities with the special education mild/moderate license. The department prepares students for endorsements in Mathematics, ESL (English as a Second Language), Dual Language Immersion, Basic Reading (graduate level only), and Education of the Gifted (graduate level only). All programs are accredited through the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC). The preparation for teaching falls academically within four major categories: University General Education, support courses, subject specialization, and professional education. 1. 2. 3. 4. University General Education requirements -- In selecting courses to satisfy the general education requirements, candidates should note the general education courses recommended and/or required in their major and/or professional education requirement sheets available in the Teacher Education Advisement Center (ED 230). Support courses Specializations are required of all elementary candidates. Elementary education majors have two track options; K-6 and 1-8. The K-6 track requires one 9 credit specialization and a 9 credit early childhood specialization while the 1-8 track requires a 18 credit specialization or a teaching minor. The professional education program outlines acceptable subject specialization areas and requirements. Special Education majors choose one 9-hour specialization or a teaching minor. Secondary candidates completing a teaching major may be required to complete a teaching minor (refer to the teaching major program requirements). The teaching major and teaching minor must be in subjects taught in Utah public secondary schools. Professional Education courses help the prospective teacher learn about children, the nature of the learning process, and how to provide desirable learning experiences. To meet licensure requirements, secondary school candidates are required to complete a minimum of 24 semester hours of professional course work; 55 semester hours are required of the prospective elementary school teacher. Professional course work in the program is organized into sequential levels. As students move through the program, they are required to demonstrate in a variety of ways the knowledge, skills and dispositions that embody the department's organizing theme and program model. It is important that interested students contact the Teacher Education Advisement Center (ED 230) as quickly as they decide to become a teacher. Specific program admission requirements, required courses, and recommended general education course work are available. Admission to Teacher Education Admission to the Teacher Education Programs is a separate process from general university admission. The Teacher Education programs maintain a competitive admissions process. Applicants are provisionally admitted each semester after submitting their application materials and meeting the minimum admission criteria listed below. Students are admitted two times per year: fall semester and spring semester. Applicants are evaluated by cumulative GPA and admission interview score. Minimum Admission Requirements 1. Formal Application submitted online by the deadline date. 2. At least 40 semester hours of general education and relevant prerequisite courses. Those intending to teach Special Education or teach at the elementary level, please note: The Professional Education component of the Special Education major and the Elementary Education major requires four semesters to complete. Therefore, it is very important that candidates have completed the General Education requirements and 1189 have taken most of the required Support Courses prior to entering the program. Because of possible scheduling difficulties, failure to do so could mean spending an extra semester (or more) in completing the program. Those intending to teach at the secondary level, please note: The Professional Education component of the Secondary Education program requires two semesters to complete. Therefore, it is very important that candidates have completed the General Education requirements and most of the teaching major and minor requirements prior to entering the program. Because of possible scheduling difficulties, failure to do so could mean spending an extra semester (or more) in completing the program. 3. Passing the appropriate Praxis II Content test or passing the ACT with the composite score of 21 with a verbal/English score no less than 20 and a mathematics/quantitative score of no less than 19 is reguired for all programs. The Utah State Office of Education specifies the passing score for each test. Students will not be considered for admission if they do not meet the state specified passing score on the Praxis II or ACT. 4. Sign up for an interview in the Advisement Center when you turn in application materials (the schedule will be available approximately one (1) month prior to the interview dates). 5. Composition general education requirement completed (grade "C" or above in ENGL 2010 EN2, or equivalent). 6. Quantitative Literacy requirement completed (see General Requirements in this catalog). Note: Elementary, Special Education, and Early Childhood Education majors need MATH 1050 as prerequisite for Mathematics Education support courses. 7. Communication competency completed (grade "B-" or above in COMM 1020 or COMM 2110 or equivalent). 8. University Computer and Information Literacy competency completed (see General Requirements in this catalog). 9. EDUC 1010 Exploring Teaching or approved equivalent course completed. 10. Teacher Education also recognizes specific program and diversity needs of professional education and reserves the right to consider such factors in the admission of candidates. 11. For teacher education applicants who are English language learners, an additional requirement of 6.5 on each of the four sections of the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test is required for admission. Additional Notes 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Fingerprinting/background check must be completed immediately after being admitted. Go to the following link for more information: https://weber.edu/fingerprinting Students are provisionally admitted to a specific teacher education program: (1) early childhood education; (2) elementary education; (3) special education; (4) secondary education. Provisional admission to a specific program is valid for a period of five years. If a student has not completed the program within the five-year period or desires to pursue a different program, he/she must seek readmission under the current admission standards and complete current course/program requirements. Changes in state licensure requirements may necessitate more immediate program changes. Professional education credits older than five years at the time of program admission generally will not be counted. However, students may revalidate outdated course work by following procedures available in the Teacher Education Advisement Center, ED 230. A Graduate Certificate in Teaching is also available through the Master of Education program. Applicants who hold Bachelor's degrees older than five years and who have not had more recent relevant course work or work experiences related to their major and minor must take at least two courses in their major and one course in their minor as designated by the academic department. Applicants with an earned graduate degree seeking initial licensure must satisfactorily complete requirements 1, 2, 4, and 5. They are then placed in the pool with others seeking provisional admission. Data are collected on students admitted to the Teacher Education program for the purposes of national accreditation and program improvement. No personal information is used in this process. Early Childhood Education Major The Departments of Child and Family Studies and Teacher Education offer a major in Early Childhood Education with licensure for teaching in programs which serve children from birth through eight years of age (Pre-K through 3rd grade). Requirements are listed under the Department of Child and Family Studies. See Room ED 248 for additional information. Elementary Education Major 1190 Students preparing to teach in elementary schools graduate with a major in Elementary Education. The elementary education major has a K-6 track and a 1-8 track. The Teacher Education Advisement Center and faculty advisors from the Department of Teacher Education are available to advise prospective teachers. A program requirement sheet is available from the Teacher Education Advisement Center in Room 230 in the McKay Education Building. It is to the student's advantage to begin program planning early. Interdisciplinary Minors The Teacher Education Department participates in the interdisciplinary Linguistics Minor Program. Students who wish to enroll in this program should indicate their desire to do so with the program coordinator who will help them work out a proper combination of courses to fit their particular needs. (See the Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs section of this catalog.) 1191 Basic Reading Endorsement Level I—Basic Reading Endorsement These courses will meet the requirement for a Level I Basic Reading Endorsement to be added to the Elementary or Secondary Education licensure.

Engaged learning fosters intellectual and personal growth, critical thinking, problem solving, civic engagement, and professional and career development opportunities. Students engage with faculty members in small groups or one-on-one, for an intellectually challenging experience that is enhanced by professional and real world application of knowledge. The Office of Undergraduate Research, the Center for Community Engaged Learning, the Sustainability Practices and Research Center, and Honors Program continue to facilitate the engaged learning of WSU students by collaborating with disciplines across colleges. These programs offer engaged learning opportunities in undergraduate research, community engaged learning, and classes that provide a stimulating, creative and supportive learning environment. Interdisciplinary programs provide students the opportunity to expand their learning across different subject areas, and contribute to a well-rounded educational experience. Students who want to individualize or create a unique academic program resulting in an interdisciplinary degree can do so through the Bachelor of Integrated Studies program. • • Dean of Engaged Learning, Honors, and Interdisciplinary Programs: Brenda Kowalweski Telephone Contact: Dana Gibson, 801-626-6006 Program Chairs/Directors/Coordinators Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR): Dr. John Cavitt Center for Community Engaged Learning (CCEL): Dr. Becky Jo Gesteland Honors Program: Dr. Dan Bedford Bachelor of Integrated Studies (BIS): Dr. Susan Matt Sustainability Practices and Research Center (SPARC): Dr. Alice Mulder Library Teaching & Information Services Department: Dr. Shaun Adamson Asian Studies: Dr. Greg Lewis Environmental Studies: Dr. Mikel Vause Ethnic Studies: Dr. Eric Ewert European Studies: Dr. Thomas Mathews Latin American Studies: Dr. Isabel Asensio Learning English for Academic Purposes (LEAP): Debi Sheridan Legal Studies: Dr. Richard Price Linguistics: Dr. Mark LeTourneau Neuroscience: Dr. Todd Hillhouse Urban and Regional Planning: Dr. Bryan Dorsey Women & Gender Studies: Dr. Melina Alexander 801-626-8541 801-626-7737 801-626-7591 801-626-7713 801-626-6326 801-626-6827 801-626-6781 801-626-6659 801-626-6197 801-626-6345 801-626-6777 801-626-6775 801-626-6694 801-626-6386 801-626-6315 801-626-6944 801-626-7632 Office of Community Development (OCD) Executive Director: Bill Cook Telephone Contact: Bill Cook (801) 721-9382 Location: Community Education Center, 115 Internet Address: weber.edu/OgdenCAN The Office of Community Development at Weber State University acts as a catalyst for fostering collaboration and partnerships between anchor institutions and partner organizations that address social determinants of health in education, health, housing and financial stability.

The program best suits students who have developed a sense of their educational and life goals, and who are looking for ways to express those values through an individualized university program. To accomplish these general outcomes, BIS students complete course work in three different disciplines. As a culminating experience, students then synthesize the three areas in a capstone project. The BIS degree option is available to students in good standing at Weber State University with a GPA of 2.5 or above. Students must formally apply for admittance into the BIS program, and must take 15 credit hours in the program after they are accepted. Program Requirements • • • • • • • • BIS applicants must earn and maintain a 2.5 GPA to graduate with a Bachelors of Integrated Studies degree. The institution requires that every bachelor's degree candidate earn a total of 120 credit hours, 40 of which must be upper division hours. A BIS student can expect to take a minimum of 18 credit hours in each of three areas of emphasis, plus 5 hours for the capstone preparation and project, for a minimum of 59 credits in the BIS program. All contract and BIS courses must receive a minimum grade of "C" in order to count towards the BIS degree. Only graded classes can be included in the course contract (special exams, CLEP, or credit/no credit may not be included in the BIS contract). Courses which are used to satisfy General Education may not be used again in the BIS contract. Program Code: 1000BIS with three concentration codes CIPC: 240101 Advisement All prospective students must meet with the BIS Coordinator to plan a course of study, and be admitted into the program. Call 801-626-7713 to schedule an appointment. For more information, see the BIS Web page (weber.edu/bis). General Education Refer to Degree Requirements for bachelor's degree requirements. Honors students may elect to fulfill this requirement through the Honors general education option. Course Requirements for BIS Degree Contract of three areas of emphasis: (54 credit hours minimum) Every BIS student will take a minimum of 18 credit hours in three different academic departments or institutionally recognized disciplines (two of which must offer upper division credit) as approved by the department and the BIS Coordinator.

The main mission of the center is to engage students, faculty and staff members in direct service, civic engagement, and community research to promote civic participation, build community capacity, and enhance the educational process. Community engagement describes the collaboration between Weber State University and our larger communities (local, regional/state, national, global) for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity (Carnegie Foundation). Courses designated with the Community Engaged Learning (CEL) attribute are designed to provide students with a structured approach to learning and teaching that connects meaningful community experience with intellectual development, personal growth, and active citizenship. CEL enriches coursework by encouraging students to apply the knowledge and analytic tools gained in the classroom to the pressing issues affecting local communities. Therefore CEL is defined as an activity that involves a collaborative, reciprocal relationship with the community that prepares our students, faculty, staff, and alumni to be engaged citizens by strengthening their democratic values and civic responsibility as they address community issues. Community engaged learning can be facilitated through one of our three pathways: direct service, civic engagement and community research. Direct Service experiences often involve working directly with community residents to meet an immediate need. Examples of direct service include, but are not limited to: volunteering to serve meals at a homeless shelter, using academic knowledge to develop an electronic food-monitoring database for a food pantry, serving as a mentor or tutor in a local school or youth development program, cleaning up the banks of the Ogden River, or coaching a city youth sport. Civic engagement experiences often involve raising awareness about issues of public concern and working more systematically through both political and non-political processes to create change. Examples of civic engagement include, but are not limited to: attending organized discussions about pollution; community organizing; writing a letter to an elected official; engaging others in the process of deliberative democracy; or producing information about community issues. Community research experiences often involve gathering information with and for community organizations to solve a pressing community problem or create change. Examples of community research include, but are not limited to: community needs assessment survey; water quality or scientific assessment; or program evaluation for non-profit organizations. Regardless of the type of community engaged learning experience, students are expected to acquire four CEL outcomes through their experiences: civic knowledge, civic skills, civic values, and civic action. Student learning outcomes, definitions, and measurement rubrics can be found at www.weber.edu/CCEL. Courses Community engaged learning is not specific to any one discipline; in fact, CEL courses exist in many disciplines across campus. For example, an Athletic Training class incorporates a service component wherein students are utilizing their knowledge and skills gleaned from class to serve patrons at a local free medical clinic. Community Engaged Learning courses are designated with the CEL attribute and are listed in the course schedule published online each semester. 1234 Ethnic Studies Program Ethnic Studies Emphasis (BIS) Coordinator: Dr. Eric Ewert Location: Lindquist Hall, Room 316 Telephone: 801-626-6197 The Ethnic Studies Emphasis at WSU examines the construction and context of ethnicity in the United States with a primary focus on Americans of African, Asian, Latino, and Native American descent. Other ethnic foci may be developed by the student to meet his or her particular interests. As an element of American identity that cuts across disciplinary categories, ethnicity requires a mode of study that draws on the humanities, the social sciences, and other related fields. Ethnicity also must be addressed historically and comparatively, paying attention to the five centuries of North American minority experience and the perspectives of other New World societies and cultures. Above all, the program seeks to convey knowledge and understanding of ethnicity in the United States and to help students learn about the opportunities and responsibilities they have as citizens in an increasingly multicultural nation. • Grade Requirements: A grade of "C-" or better is required for all courses in Ethnic Studies. • Credit Hour Requirements: A minimum of 18 credit hours. • Program Code: Composite(7024), Hispanic (7028), Native American (7029), African (7027) • CIPC: Composite(050299), Hispanic (050203), Native American (050202), African (050201) Ethnic Studies Program Course Requirements for Emphasis Basic Core (6 credit hours required of all students) • • ANTH 1000 SS/DV - Introduction to Anthropology Credits: (3) SOC 3850 - Race & Ethnicity Credits: (3) Select one of the following options or design a comparable one: Option I: Hispanic Studies (12 credit hours) • • • HIST 3050 - History of U.S. Latinos Credits: (3) HIST 4110 - History of the American West to 1900 Credits: (3) HIST 4670 - History of Mexico Credits: (3) • • HIST 4630 - History of Ancient and Colonial Latin America Credits: (3) or HIST 4650 - Modern Latin America Credits: (3) Option II: Native American Studies (12 credit hours) • • • • ANTH 3600 - Culture Area Studies Credits: (1-3) (3 credit hours required) ARTH 3030 - Native American Art of the Southwest: From the Anasazi to the Present Credits: (4) HIST 3010 - Native American History: 1300 to Present Credits: (3) HIST 4110 - History of the American West to 1900 Credits: (3) Option III: African-American Studies (12 credit hours) • • HIST 3030 - African-American History Credits: (3) HIST 4040 - Era of the Civil War and Reconstruction: 1840-1877 Credits: (3) 1235 • • HIST 4610 - History of Africa Credits: (3) GEOG 3740 - Geography of Africa: Culture, Colonialism, Crises and Change Credits: (3) Option IV: Composite (12 credit hours) Select a minimum of 12 credit hours from the following: • HIST 3010 - Native American History: 1300 to Present Credits: (3) • HIST 3030 - African-American History Credits: (3) • HIST 3050 - History of U.S. Latinos Credits: (3) • GEOG 3540 - Geography of Latin America and the Caribbean Credits: (3) • GEOG 3640 - Geography of Asia: Development, Geopolitics and Environment Credits: (3) Note: Should other courses relating specifically to ethnic minorities, either of an experimental or of a permanent nature be added to the curriculum, these courses will be accepted as part of the Ethnic Studies emphasis; should such courses be part of an academic area not listed, the new academic area will be added to those presently constituting the Ethnic Studies emphasis. 1236 Ethnic Studies Emphasis Coordinator: Dr. Eric Ewert Location: Lindquist Hall, Room 361 Telephone: 801-626-6197 The Ethnic Studies Emphasis at WSU examines the construction and context of ethnicity in the United States with a primary focus on Americans of African, Asian, Latino, and Native American descent.

It is the mission of the Department to prepare these students to function effectively in mainstream academic classes where English is the language of instruction. In doing so, we also seek to familiarize students with American culture and the academic atmosphere of studying in an American university. The program curriculum includes courses that utilize an integrated skills, content-based approach. The goal of the department is to prepare non-native English speaking students to read, write and communicate effectively in academic courses taught in English. The program consists of six levels of instruction (Novice Low through Advanced according to ACTFL guidelines available at https://www.actfl.org/publications/guidelines-and-manuals/actflperformance-descriptors-language-learners), two levels per semester and the LEAP Bridge Classes. Each level (with the exception of LEAP Bridge Classes) is 7 weeks in length. The Bridge LEAP Classes are 15 weeks in length. Courses are competency based. Students must pass a proficiency final exam at the end of the semester and receive a grade of C+ (77%) or better in order to progress to the next level. Total Credit Hours per Level Levels 1 2 3 4 5 6 LEAP Bridge Classes Credits 9 9 9 9 9 9 6 Levels 1-3 are non-credit and do not count toward graduation. Courses in Levels 4-6 and the LEAP Bridge classes earn academic credit which can be applied to fulfill the foreign language requirement for a Bachelor of Arts degree and Associate of Arts degree or applied as elective credit toward the Bachelor of Science and Associate of Science degrees. This may be done by completing the LEAP Placement Examination and placing into ENGL 1010 or by completing LEAP 2510 and LEAP 2520 with a grade of C+ or better. Students who pass the LEAP Placement Examination and place in ENGL 1010 or who complete LEAP 2510 and LEAP 2520 with a grade of C+ or better will be able to claim 16 hours of credit for ESL 2310, ESL 2410, ESL 2420, ESL 2430, and ESL 2441 for a nominal fee. (Inquire in the LEAP Office EH 207.) CR/NC Sections: CR/NC sections of each course are available. CR/NC sections do not factor into a student's GPA. Students participate in the same classes with the same teachers and are held to the same proficiency standards as graded courses. Contact the LEAP office for more information. International Students: International students who meet the University's TOEFL or IELTS minimum requirements for placement in academic courses are cleared to register for ENGL 1010. International students who do not meet the University's TOEFL or IELTS minimum requirements for placement in academic courses must take the LEAP Placement Test. Students are required to complete the appropriate ESL courses according to the test results before being cleared to take academic courses on campus. Students sponsored by the Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission (SACM) are required by SACM to complete 20 credit hours per semester. Comments: 1246 • • • The Placement Test should be taken as soon as the students arrive at the university to determine placement level for necessary ESL courses. All International students are also required to take the Math Accuplacer Test (see the Department of Mathematics section of this catalog). Students must complete Advanced (Level 6) before they can register for other university classes. Resident Students: Resident students for whom English is a second, new or additional language and who have ACT scores of 16 or below or Accuplacer scores of 89 or below are required to take the LEAP Placement Test and complete appropriate ESL courses according to the test results before registering for ENGL 1010.

These projects are designed and implemented by students with the support and guidance of WSU faculty. Undergraduate research, and scholarly and creative activities must include: • inquiry, study or investigation of a question or problem; • methodology, including safety and ethical practices, appropriate to the discipline; • relevant, meaningful, and engaging intellectual or creative contribution and/or application to the discipline which is of high-quality and which results in a tangible product (abstract, paper, performance, object) which can be shared or disseminated; and • on-going supervision and mentoring by individuals with appropriate expertise. Undergraduate research has long been an important part of the college experience at Weber State University. The Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) supports students by offering grants for research and travel for dissemination of results. In addition, OUR publishes Ergo, WSU's undergraduate research journal, and sponsors an undergraduate research symposium each spring semester. 1256 Sustainability Practices for Research Center (SPARC) Director: Dr. Alice Mulder Telephone Contact: Bonnie Christiansen(801) 626-6326 Location: Stewart Library 147 Website: https://weber.edu/sustainability/sustainability-practices-research-center.html Mission Statement The mission of the Weber State University Sustainability Practices and Research Center is to inform and educate WSU students, faculty, staff and the local and statewide community in order to ensure the sustainability of our region and our world for future generations. The Center serves as a hub to connect campus activities, programs, departments and community partners in order to advance a commitment to sustainability on campus and in the region. It facilitates curricular and co-curricular learning experiences related to sustainability toward the goals of both understanding and working to address the sustainability challenges of our time. Sustainability at WSU Weber State is committed to sustainability education and to sustainability in its own operations and practices on its campuses. We are all global and local citizens, intricately interconnected to both natural and human systems. "Sustainability" is considered at Weber State in an inclusive, holistic sense, recognizing that that environmental, social, and economic health are interdependent and interconnected in both simple and complex ways. Below is WSU's general curriculumfocused definition of sustainability (approved by the Environmental Initiatives Committee (EIC) in 2010): At Weber State University the goal of sustainability education is for students to gain knowledge and understanding of the intricate linkages between human and natural systems. This includes a recognition that healthy human societies (physically, socially, culturally, politically, and economically) are fundamentally dependent on healthy ecosystems and the sustainable use of natural resources, such that they are available indefinitely for future generations to meet their needs. Included in this goal is for students to learn how to achieve sustainability across these areas. Learning about the concepts, challenges and potential solutions for sustainability can occur in classes and departments across the university. Many disciplines consider and address issues pertinent to sustainability such as anthropology, automotive technology, botany, construction management, earth science, economics, electrical engineering technology, English, geography, graphic arts, history, interior design, nursing, nutrition, philosophy, political science, physics, sociology, zoology, and many others. Sustainability Course Designation The SUS designation on courses stands for "sustainability" and indicates that a course involves some sustainability components, which aim to both further students' understanding of and ability to address real world sustainability challenges. As noted above, sustainability is defined in a pluralistic and inclusive way, encompassing human and ecological health, social justice, secure livelihoods, and a better world for all generations. Learning about sustainability in an array of courses across the curriculum will increase students' awareness and comprehension that healthy human societies are fostered and supported through a complex web of interconnections between their physical, social and economic dimensions.

While competencies and commitment are important, character plays a critical role in leadership behavior and will be the focus of this course. By character it is meant the combination of traits, values and virtues that are recognized as admired and appreciated in leaders, providing them with the expertise to exercise quality of judgment and decision-making. For example, in the financial crisis of 2008 - 2009 some corporate leaders' needs for instant gratification triumphed over temperance; and others who knew ethical risks were taken remained silent because they did not have the skills or courage to speak up. A component of this course is to explore the fundamentals of corporate governance, emphasizing the leader's responsibility to make ethical, socially responsible, legal, and wise financial decisions on behalf of the organization. We will explore a number of corporate examples that demonstrate positive and negative character development. Effective corporate governance requires leaders know the purpose or values of the organization, design the space of the organization to achieve its purpose, organize the flow of power within the organization, and manage the relationships of the key stakeholders in the organization: owners, directors, managers, employees, customers, suppliers, regulators, and the wider community of which the organization is a member.
