Develop the ability to integrate academic knowledge with experiences that extend the boundaries of the classroom (Goal 7.)

 

Identify other units affected by the proposed changes:

Approvals attached from FREC, ACCT, LEAD, and BUAD.

 

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

This minor is being proposed concurrent with a proposal to revise the Health Behavior Science major requirements. The proposed revision to the major eliminates the existing concentration in Leisure Service Management. The proposed minor will provide the knowledge and skills needed for management positions in leisure service settings. Converting the existing concentration to a minor will enable more students with an interest in leisure service management to access these courses.

 

Program Requirements: 

This minor is designed to provide students the knowledge and skills needed for management positions in public, private, commercial, and nonprofit leisure service agencies.  Admission to the minor requires a minimum GPA of 2.0 based on at least 12 units of coursework. A grade of C- or better in all required courses is necessary for successful completion of the minor.
