(Attach permission from the affected units.  If no other unit is affected, enter “None”)

 

NONE

 

Describe the rationale for the proposed program change(s):

(Explain your reasons for creating, revising, or deleting the curriculum or program.)

 

Rational for Deleting the Concentration:

 

One of the required courses, FREC 212, will be required for the FABM major (change pending). One of the required courses, FREC 427, is no longer offered regularly by the Department. One of the required courses, FREC 471, is offered only in Winter Session. Thus, the requirements for this concentration are virtually impossible to satisfy for most students.

 

Program Requirements: 

(Show the new or revised curriculum as it should appear in the Course Catalog.  If this is a revision, be sure to indicate the changes being made to the current curriculum and include a side-by-side comparison of the credit distribution before and after the proposed change.)
