                         FACULTY SENATE 

                                                             
Senate Document Number   2696S
Date of Senate Approval  2/8/96

Statement of Faculty Senate Action:

     APC Document 24:  Track Requirement Changes
                       (Department of Management and Accountancy)


Effective Date:   Fall 1996

Delete:  In Catalog 1995-1996, on page 153, the first paragraph
entitled "Marketing."  Delete "Marketing:  LANG 351 or MCOM 269 or
PSYC 200; MGMT 351, 453, 499, and approved MGMT elective; and a
300-400 level elective outside the department and approved by the
advisor."

Add:  In Catalog 1995-1996, on page 153, the first paragraph
entitled "Marketing."  Add "Marketing:  LANG 351 or MCOM 269 or
PSYC 200; MGMT 351, 453, 499, and approved marketing elective; and
a 300-400 level elective outside the department and approved by the
advisor."

Impact:  No impact on other departments or departmental resources.

Rationale:  As stated in the 1995-96 Catalog the requirements for
the Marketing Area of Interest were too broad, which could lead to
a student take non-marketing related courses to meet the
requirements of the Area of Interest.  The new statement clarifies
the requirements, ensuring that the students in this area receive
sufficient marketing or marketing related course work.


Delete:  In Catalog 1995-96, on page 154, paragraph II. under     
         General Requirements for Industrial and Engineering      
         Management, delete the following line; "CSCI 142; ECON   
         200, 306; ENGR 206, 314; MATH 191, 192, 291; PHYS 221,   
         222; STAT"

Add:     In Catalog 1995-96, on page 154, paragraph II. under     
         General Requirements for Industrial and Engineering      
         Management, add the following line; "CSCI 201; ECON      
         200, 306; ENGR 206, 314; MATH 191, 192, 291; PHYS 221,   
         222; STAT"

Impact Statement: Does not change the number of required hours in
the I&EM program.  This change will decrease the demand for CSCI
142 "FORTRAN".


Rationale: "FORTRAN" is slowly disappearing as a preferred
structured programming scientific language.  It is being replaced
with more advanced programming languages such as "PASCAL" or "C". 
To remain current and to provide our graduates with a competitive
edge, "FORTRAN" such be replaced with "PASCAL" or "C" programming
languages.  CSCI 201, Introduction to Algorithm Design, is the
appropriate course for this substitution.
