E 607A E 607A Teaching Writing: Composition and Rhetoric 3(3-0-0) F, S Fall 2017 Elective in:

M.A. in English Prerequisite: None. Registration Information: None. Restriction: Must be a: Graduate, Professional. Description: Addresses theoretical and applied understandings of reading and writing processes in the first-year college writing classroom; considers practical implications for professional practice in the teaching of writing; critically examines theory, disciplinary conventions, and policies in regard to writing pedagogy Grade Mode: S/U Sat/Unsat Only Traditional.

Reason for Request:

This course has been treated as internship credit for the many years that it has been offered. However, it is increasingly taught as a regular graduate course with rigorous content and should be taught using traditional grading. The evolution of the course toward becoming a traditional graduate course reflects the increased seriousness around college-level teaching, particularly as it relates to pedagogies of writing. First-year composition has become increasingly research and theory-based, and this course reflects the professionalization of the field of writing instruction and the related need for GTAs to become sophisticated in their understanding of writing pedagogy since they are instructors of record in the first-year composition course.

ETST 205 ETST 205 Ethnicity and the Media 3(3-0-0) F Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: None.

Registration Information: Sections may be offered: Online. Description: Ethnic representation across time as represented in auto/biography, fiction, poetry, and popular media.

MU 118 MU 118 Music Theory II 34(3-20-0) S Fall 2017 Required in: All Music

Concentrations

Prerequisite: MU 117. None. Registration Information: Must register for lecture and laboratory. None. Description: Four-part diatonic writing; diatonic sequences modulation; diatonic sight singing, ear training, and related linear techniques; diatonic modulation keyboard harmony skills. Grade Mode: Traditional

Reason for Request:

The curriculum for this course is being revised to remove the aural skills (ear-training) component from the current course with creation of a separate aural skills course. The primary rationale is that by separating aural skills from written music theory, a dedicated amount of instructional time will be devoted specifically to each set of skills. Hence, both assessment and instructional efficiency will be improved. Most comparable peer institutions utilize a similar curricular model for their undergraduate music theory and aural skills sequences. This change was initiated upon the recommendation of the music theory faculty and was approved by the music undergraduate curriculum committee.

Fall 2017 Required in: Major in

Construction Management

& Minor in

Construction Management

Prerequisite: CON 131 and CON 151. Registration Information: Must register for lecture and laboratory. Required field trips. Description: Practice in construction document reading, interpretation and analysis for quantity surveying and material quantity organizating using industry-recognized methods including, but not limited to, a project manual-based work breakdown structure. Integration of construction materials and methods into construction systems that will be incorporated in projects. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

The title and objectives are being modified to better capture the course content. Construction estimating includes several steps, the first of which are plan reading and quantity survey. Students perceive "estimating" as the determination of cost of a construction project. This course focuses on plan reading and quantity survey and does not include the determination of costs. Construction labor, material, and equipment resources are allocated. Associated costs are applied in CON 365 Construction Estimating II (a course change proposal is in process to remove "II" from the title of CON 365). CON 265 is a prerequisite for CON 365.

Major Changes to Existing Programs College of Engineering Effective Fall 2017 Dual Degree Program: Biomedical Engineering and Link to CIM Electrical Engineering, Lasers and Optical Engineering Concentration

Fall 2017 General Elective

Prerequisite: None. Registration Information: None. Description: Formalized training on conducting non-formal agricultural education at the National Western Stock Show. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

We are refining our advanced experiences courses to reflect the experiences students were undertaking. It was becoming difficult to manage these experiences when you had just one course number. This change will allow us to more effectively advise, mentor, and engage with students in these experiences. This course would be for students wanting formalized experiences working with the National Western Stock Show (NWSS). We will design to different practicums for students enrolled in the Fall and Spring. Students do not have to take both and the experiences are designed to be completed within the time frame of the respective semester. Fall: Students in this semester's practicum will develop the educational lessons and activities that will happen at the National Western Stock Show which Colorado State University manages or helps coordinates. Spring: Student in this semester's practicum will work at the National Western Stock Show with the educational activities which Colorado State University manages or helps coordinates. This experience could start one week before classes begin. This arrangement is not unusual in educational courses, much like student teaching experiences start at least two weeks before university classes start in the spring. Students will then conduct a formal review of the educational activities at National Western Stock Show and present those findings to leaders at the National Western Stock Show.

Prerequisite: BUS 640. Registration Information: Offered as an online course only. Credit not allowed for both FIN 612 and FIN 669. Description: The role and function of the private equity market and key players in that market, including crowdfunding, angel investors, and venture capitalists. Application of financial tools and models to value venture investments, evaluate risk and return, and negotiate deals Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

This course will be part of the Applied Finance Certificate in the Master of Business Administration and will be allowed as an elective in the Master of Finance program. Electives in this topic area are fairly common components of MBA and finance curricula and this course fills this gap in the existing curriculum. In addition to providing background to students that can lead to job opportunities in this sector of the financial markets, the course requires application of financial concepts covered in earlier courses that can lead to higher levels of learning through reinforcement and advanced application.

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING MECH 578/ BIOM 578

MECH 578/BIOM 578 Musculoskeletal Biosolid Mechanics 3(3-0-0) F Fall 2017 General Elective

Prerequisite: CIVE 360. Registration Information: Graduate standing. Credit allowed for only one of the following: BIOM 578, MECH 578, or MECH 580A7. Description: Application of engineering concepts to quantify the mechanical behavior of load-bearing biological tissues and orthopaedic implant performance. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

I last taught this course as a 600 level course in 2009. Since then, I have been asked many times to teach this course on both the graduate and undergraduate level but have been unable to do so because other courses were required to be taught within mechanical engineering (due to the severely increasing enrollment in ME). This has left a major deficiency in our graduate course offerings within the biomedical thrust in mechanical engineering. In addition, the increase in the MECH/BIOM dual major population has resulted in a severe need for a biosolid undergraduate technical elective course. I have spent my sabbatical year (2015-2016) altering the 600 level course to be appropriate at the junior graduate student and undergraduate levels. I taught the course for two semesters as a undergraduate senior technical elective at the University of Canterbury (Christchurch, New Zealand) and it received very favorable reviews. This is a particular area of interest among the biomedical engineering students and the enrollment increased by 2x from the first semester to the second semester.

COLLEGE OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SCIENCES RRM 410 RRM 410 Food Safety Management 2(2-0-0) F Fall 2017 Required in:

Details: Management and practical applications of safe food service including sanitation, food borne illness, worker hygiene, proper food temperatures and handling, hazard analysis critical control points, local/state/federal health rules and regulations. ServSafe® Manager Certification. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Page 20: University Curriculum Committee Agenda UNIVERSITY

University Curriculum Committee Agenda January 20, 2017 Page 20

Reason for Request:

Serving safe food is a fundamental requirement of employees in the hospitality industry. Most local health departments and foodservice establishments now require managers and other employees to complete a recognized food safety training and certification. Every Hospitality Management student will work in and around food regardless of the segment they build their careers. Nationally recognized, manager-level, food safety certifications provide students with highly marketable credentials that are often a part of job specifications and job descriptions for employment. Numerous recommendations and requests for this course, and the ServSafe® Manager Certification, have come from multiple students and employers. Currently, hospitality management students receive food safety instruction and testing in a classroom setting during the first three weeks of RRM 340, Restaurant Operations. Additionally they receive on-going food safety training throughout the semester in RRM 340 which is hands-on learning in an operating restaurant.

COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS MU 110 MU 110 Music and Technology 3(2-2-0) As Needed Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: None.

Registration Information: Must register for lecture and laboratory. Description: Historical and cultural perspectives on the role of technology in music combined with applied skills in digital music production. Grade Mode: Traditional. [Proposed new AUCC 3B: Arts & Humanities]

Proposed new:

AUCC 3B

Reason for Request:

This course is intended to broaden the current AUCC offerings in the music area. As technology has played a major role in the development of music of the past several decades, this course will provide students with the means to explore modern methods of music production and how music technology has evolved in different eras and cultures.

MU 412 MU 412 Music Theory Review 2(2-0-0) F Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: MU 218.

Registration Information: Sections may be offered: Online. Description: Review of music theory topics to prepare for graduate studies. Tonal, post-tonal, and formal analysis. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

This course is intended as an aid to students who are entering or planning to enter graduate studies in music. Both current graduate students and upper division undergraduates will benefit from reviewing content from core undergraduate topics in music theory. Successful completion of the course will prepare students for graduate music theory entrance examinations at other institutions or graduate theory coursework at CSU. Since most music theory coursework is concentrated in the first two years of the undergraduate degree, many students will find this course as an important review after the intervening time between their early training and the beginning of their graduate program.

MU 592D MU 592D Seminar: Music Education Var[1-3] As Needed Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: None.

Registration Information: Graduate standing. May be repeated up to three times for credit. Description: Special Topics in Music Education. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

Previously, seminar courses have been held under the Group Study code, but these seminars are better reflected under the Seminar title. This course allows our students to explore narrower theoretical topics with more depth. Selected, rotating topics to be determined by faculty availability and expertise, and student interest.

COLLEGE OF NATURAL SCIENCES BZ 192 BZ 192 First Year Seminar–Biology/Zoology 1(1-0-0) F Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: None.

Registration Information: Freshman only. This is a partial semester course. Credit not allowed for both BZ 180A1 and BZ 192. Description: Introduction to the resources and academic programs in biology; the role of biosciences. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Page 21: University Curriculum Committee Agenda UNIVERSITY

University Curriculum Committee Agenda January 20, 2017 Page 21

Reason for Request:

First year students in the Biology department commit to a rigorous course schedule, and a significant number of students struggle to succeed academically. Rather than students meeting individually with their academic advisor for a limited amount of time to review a number of resources and to go through academic planning information, this seminar offers an extended orientation for students to define the Biology and Zoology major resources and key campus offices. This seminar makes first-year students aware of resources in their college and department that can support their efforts to meet high academic goals, challenges students to think critically about their engagement with the campus community, and helps students understand the importance of and responsibility to create a graduation plan. This class clarifies academic expectations of the majors, while connecting students with staff and faculty who can provide guidance throughout their student experience. This course also allows students to receive large-group advising concerning academic requirements, undergraduate research, and course planning.

BZ 670 BZ 670 Teaching Scientific Reasoning & Argumentation 3(3-0-0) F Fall 2017 General Elective Prerequisite: None.

Registration Information: BS or BA in natural sciences. Credit not allowed for both BZ 670 and BZ 680A1. Restriction: Must be a: Graduate, Professional. Description: Nature of science (NoS), scientific reasoning, scientific argumentation, and instructional strategies to help undergraduate students develop science argumentation and communication skills. Creation of instructional materials for a teaching portfolio. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

This new elective course is being developed because of a recognized interest among science graduate students at CSU for a course that focuses on how to support undergraduate learning. The course content reflects the research expertise of the instructor and course designer. The first half of the semester will explore scientific reasoning and argumentation. During the second half of the semester, students will learn how to help their future undergraduate students synthesize research and communicate scientific arguments using meaningful and engaging instructional and assessment practices.

MSE 503 MSE 503 Mechanical Behaviors of Materials 3(3-0-0) S Fall 2017 Required:

PhD Materials Science

Master Materials Science, Plan A

& Plan B (new proposals)

Prerequisite: MSE 501 or MSE 502A or MECH 331; MATH 340 or MATH 345. Registration Information: Senior standing. Description: The mechanical behavior of metals, polymeric, ceramic, and composite materials in mechanical designs from a structure to processing to properties perspective. Practical and specific performance analyses of structural materials are examined. Grade Mode: Traditional.

Reason for Request:

This course is a core course for students in the MSE program. Mechanical behavior of metals, polymeric, ceramic, and composite materials in mechanical designs constitute the fundamental basis for materials synthesis approaches and for new materials discovery. This course discusses practical and specific performance analyses of structural materials from a structure->processing->properties perspective. Mechanical properties, particularly from a mechanistic and phenomenological understanding of materials structure, including brittleness, plasticity, stress-strain and shear modulus, and viscosity, among others, are important properties for materials manufacturing and are critical for students to gain exposure to as they develop skills and knowledge for materials sciences occupations. The content includes: dislocation behavior (i.e. core energy, strain fields around a 1D discontinuity, interactions with strain fields generally, dislocation mechanics/reactions, planar/wavy slip) constitutive models for creep, plastic dissipation of energy in fracture, discussion of relaxed/unrelaxed moduli, analysis of the role of stacking fault energy as it pertains to fatigue or fracture, and ultimately materials selection considerations with these concepts in mind. Current CSU course offerings associated with mechanical behaviors of materials do not cover these specific aspects to the microstructural depth necessary for students pursing Materials Science and Engineering degrees. The proposed course, in its current form, is similar to course offerings from leading MSE programs around the nation, and has had input from numerous faculty at these programs. This is a core course for the program as these are key concepts in materials design and discovery.

Major in Psychology,

• General Psychology Conc.

• Industrial/Organization Conc.

• Mind, Brain, Behavior Conc.

Proposed new:

AUCC 4C

Prerequisite: PSY 210; PSY 250; PSY 252 Registration Information: Senior standing. Sections may be offered: Online. Description: Special, controversial, and emerging topics in psychology, considered in the context of foundational knowledge and principles from the field. Grade Mode: Traditional [Proposed new AUCC 4C: Capstone Experience for the following:

Major in Psychology, General Psychology Concentration Major in Psychology, Industrial/Organization Psychology Concentration Major in Psychology, Mind, Brain, and Behavior Concentration]

Reason for Request:

The Department proposes to change the capstone experience to (1) align with the concentrations, and (2) provide a more integrative experience. In the case of the General Psychology, Industrial/Organizational Psychology, and Mind, Brain, and Behavior concentrations, this entails the creation of a new capstone seminar, PSY 493, as proposed here. This capstone experience will involve reading and reflecting on myths, historical or modern debates, cutting-edge issues, and/or modern applications in psychology. The topics will draw on content from a variety of areas of psychology, so as to provide an experience that integrates information from multiple courses within the major/concentration.

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES LAND 110 LAND 110 Introduction to Landscape Architecture 3(1-2-1) F Fall 2017 Required in:

Landscape Architecture

Elective in:

Inds. Minor in Environmental

Affairs

Proposed for: AUCC 3B

Prerequisite: None. Registration Information: Must register for lecture, laboratory, and recitation. Description: Introductory theories, methods, and applications of landscape studies. Grade Mode: Traditional. [proposed new AUCC 3B: Arts & Humanities]

Reason for Request:

The reason for this request is to convert this existing course to an AUCC course, in order to expose a broader cross-section of students to the history, theories and practice of landscape architecture, which has been a critical means of cultural expression for societies throughout history. This course, which was significantly overhauled in partnership with The Institute for Learning and Teaching (TILT) as a winner of the Provost's Course Redesign Competition in 2014, was designed to appeal to students of all backgrounds, whether design majors or otherwise. Much like the fine arts, landscape architecture has served as an important record of humans' relationship with each other

and the world around them, reflecting deeply-held and constantly evolving social, political and environmental attitudes and beliefs. Students of this course learn to interpret the built environment and understand how it shapes, and is shaped by, the cultures that create them. Further, this course introduces a number of important global issues to students, such as environmental change, urbanization and western cultural hegemony. Broader exposure to this important design medium encourages students to better understand the world around them and their place in it.

COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS ART 100 ART 100 Introduction to the Visual Arts 3(3-0-0) F, S, SS Fall 2017 General Elective

Existing AUCC 3B & gtP AH1

Prerequisite: None. Registration Information: Sections may be offered: Online. Description: Exploration of the development of visual arts. Grade Mode: Traditional

Reason for Request:

We wish to expand the offering times for the course by offering it online (in addition to the already established RI course). Offering this AUCC class online (as well as RI) will help serve the widest possible population of students, regardless of scheduling conflicts with their other RI courses.

LSPA 500 LSPA 500 Language Analysis/Stylistics-Spanish 3(3-0-0) F Fall 2017 Elective in:

Reason for Request:

This course will rotate topics (Syntax, Phonetics/Phonology, Morphology, Other).

WARNER COLLEGE OF NATURAL RESOURCES NR 693 NR 693 Natural Resources Stewardship Seminar Var[1-2] 2(0-0-2) F Fall 2017 Required in:

Master of Natural. Resource

Stewardship

Prerequisite: None. Restriction: Must be a: Graduate, Professional. Registration Information: Written consent of instructor can substitute for degree program requirement. Admission to the Master of Natural Resources Stewardship degree program. Sections may be offered: Online Description: Invited speakers will present different perspectives on natural resources. Grade Mode: S/U Sat/Unsat Only Department/Unit Change: 1401 – Warner College of Natural Resource 1472 – Forest & Rangeland Stewardship

Reason for Request:

1) This class is offered for two credits each fall term. There is no option to take it for 1 credit. Removing the 1 credit option will simplify registration. 2) Under the pdf curricular change forms used prior to CIM, the Curriculum and Catalog Office was the entity that determined to what unit a course should be assigned, and this course was assigned to the Warner College of Natural Resources. The Forest and Rangeland Stewardship Department requires that when an instructor awards a grade of incomplete, the student and instructor must complete an Incomplete Grade Form outlining their agreement, which is approved by the FRS Department Head and filed with the FRS Department. Because of the WCNR designation on the course, all grade changes go through the Warner College Dean's Office for approval. Both the WCNR Dean and the FRS Department Head prefer that the incomplete grades and the resulting grade changes be handled by one entity. Since the granting of an incomplete requires department head approval and an agreement which resides with the department, it makes sense for the department to also handle approval of the grade change. The course was developed for the MNRS program, which is offered by the FRS Department.

Description: Quantum chemistry; molecular structure and spectroscopy; equilibrium thermodynamics; kinetics. Grade Mode: Traditional [Proposed new AUCC 4B: Building Upon Foundations and Perspectives for the following:

Major in Chemistry, ACS Certified Concentration Major in Chemistry, Non-ACS Certified Concentration]

Reason for Request:

While changing the curriculum for students to earn the B. S., one option eliminates, CHEM476 Physical Chemistry 2 the course that has fulfilled the AUCC 4B requirement, from the curriculum. As a result, students pursuing the new curriculum need a way to fulfill the AUCC 4B requirement. CHEM473 covers similar material to CHEM476 and has prerequisite courses outside the chemistry department thus fulfills the AUCC 4B requirement for chemistry majors.

Registration Information: Sections may be offered: Online. Description: Design, analysis, and reporting of psychological research. Grade Mode: Traditional

Reason for Request:

The Department of Psychology proposes to update the content of our existing Research Methods in Psychology course, such that it includes greater coverage of analytical methods. Specifically, we wish to cover research methods, design, and analysis in an integrated fashion in the same course. The goal of this change is improve students' understanding of analytical/statistical methods and principles by teaching this content in the context of psychological research methods and design. Because of this significant expansion of the content of the course, we propose to move from the existing requirement of a single four-credit methods course (the current PSY 250 Research Methods in Psychology class) to a sequence of two three-credit courses (PSY 250 Research Methods and Analysis I; PSY 350 Research Methods and Analysis II). To facilitate the expansion of the analysis portion of the course, we propose to add a STAT course as a prerequisite/co-requisite (see above).

College of Agricultural Sciences Effective Fall 2017 Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics Link to CIM Minor in Agricultural Business and Resource Economics

Reason for Request:

We are updating our current minor called Agricultural and Resource Economics to better reflect majors that students take in the department. In this case, we are changing the name of our current minor to Agricultural Business. Over time, agribusiness has grown to account for over 80 percent of undergraduates in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics. It is one of the most marketable degrees at the university. Many students that do not want to major in Agricultural Business find that holding a minor in the field allows them to pursue their passion, whether that be Equine Science, Food Technology or Sociology, and make themselves more marketable to employers. This will be a very popular minor, fitting many in the College of Agriculture and some in other colleges including Engineering, Natural Resources or Liberal Arts.

Reason for Request:

Drop MATH 118 and 124 and replace them with MATH 101 Drop Stat 204: Business Statistics Math 101 will be added to substitute for STAT 204 and MATH 118 and MATH124 . In addition to learning statistics, Math 101 will provide students with a broader set of math concepts which align better with mathematical demands of their hospitality management careers. Drop CS 110 Computer Science CS 110 no longer provides the computer knowledge HM students need for their careers. Computer applications needed by HM students are now being taught in high school and in our HM courses. Change RRM 345 Food beverage and labor cost controls from Elective to required course Food, beverage, and labor cost controls represent a fundamental management responsibility in all hospitality environments regardless of industry segment. HM students and industry stakeholders have overwhelmingly suggested it become a required course in the program. RRM 345 course content focuses on critical thinking and practical applications tying management concepts to financial accountability in hospitality organizations. Financial understanding and applications are also a program Student Learning Objective (SLO). Adding LB 300 as another option to AUCC Cat. 2 LB 300 provides students with another Cat.2 option and its content more closely parallels the type of professional writing HM students will be required to perform in their careers. Propose new Food Safety Management course (RRM 410) Drop FTEC 400 The new course will provide students with a nationally recognized credential in food safety management which is accepted by all city and county health departments; and is often listed as a job specification when applying for a position in the hospitality industry.

University Curriculum Committee Agenda January 20, 2017 Page 36 College of Intra-University Effective Fall 2017 Department of Provost/Academic Vice President Link to CIM Minor in Military Science

Reason for Request:

The Military Science minor is currently set at 27 credits. This works well for the traditional four year student, but has resulted in an increase in waivers and substitutions for students who are either using prior military experience or using attendance of basic camp in place of the first two years of the program. Reducing the minor to 21 credits will allow students more flexibility in completing the minor and will reduce the administrative load of processing waivers.

Students must satisfactorily complete 21 of the total credits offered for the minor. Minors and interdisciplinary minors require 12 or more upper-division (300- to 400-level) credits. Minor in Military Science ROTC students can earn a minor in Military Science.The minor requires 27 credits, which encompass approximately 87% of the military science courses, a military history course, and summer training.This minor allows ROTC students to compete in the University Honors Program or complete majors that also require a minor. Effective Fall 2017 Spring 2015 In order to receive a minor in Military Science, students must commission as 2nd Lieutenants in the U.S. Army upon graduation from CSU.

The Department of Animal Sciences is requesting the statement of"A minimum grade of C (2.0) is required foreach course required in the certificate". The statement was inadverteartly left offofthe original proposal requestofthe two certificates.

Since the two certificates are still working their way through the CIM system it was suggested by Dr. Makela tosubmit this memo to get the statement added.
