| Name: | PCC Proposal to Terminate Inactive EDCI Undergraduate Programs |
| Proposed: | 11/27/2009 |
| Sponsor: | PCC Committee |
| Proposal: | The College of Education wishes to terminate the following inactive undergraduate programs in order to remove them from the Maryland Higher Education Commission Academic Program Inventory. These programs are all inactive. They have no enrolled students or applicants. Each program has been made unnecessary because of changes in Maryland State Department of Education requirements, in particular the current requirement that secondary education students complete a major in a content discipline that is in addition to their secondary education major. The programs to be terminated are as follows: The Bachelor of Science in Art Education K12 (because Art majors need to complete a Bachelor of Arts, not a Bachelor of Science) The Bachelor of Arts in Secondary Education, Mathematics (because Math majors need to complete a Bachelor of Science, not a Bachelor of Arts) The Bachelors of Arts and Science in Secondary EducationSpeech and English (which do not comply with the state's requirement for the content major) The Bachelors of Arts and Science in Secondary EducationTheatre and English (which also do not comply with the state's requirement for a content major) The proposal was submitted to the Senate by the Office of Academic Affairs following favorable recommendation by the Academic Planning Advisory Committee (APAC) on October 26 and the Senate Programs, Curricula & Courses Committee on December 4. |
