Justification and Assessment
Next
  • What is the rationale for the requested course changes?*
    Rationale for change in course description: The previous course description referred to placing students in internships and "areas of concentration." The MA program facilitates and assists in finding internships, but we do not “place” students. In addition, students do not have formal areas of concentration and this term is a potential source of confusion. (Passed by Sociology faculty in October 2020) Rationale for allowing students to repeat the course once with permission from the sociology head of graduate studies: Allowing 6 possible credit hours of internship make the sociology MA more comparable to other social science programs at UWG and other sociology MA programs in this region. Requiring permission from the head of graduate studies to repeat the course will ensure that students are taking an appropriate combination of internships and coursework. Jill Drake and the registrar's office have advised that there is no way to code a course in Banner to require permission from the head of graduate studies. They recommended requiring instructor approval; the instructor will be able to monitor if students taking the course a second time have the required permission. (Passed by Sociology faculty in February 2020)
