Statement of Faculty Senate Action:

 

APC Document  40:                              Elimination of Prerequisite for MGMT 320

                                                            Change in Prerequisite for MGMT 491

                                                           

Effective Date: Fall 2006

 

 

1.  Delete:        On pg. 164, after course description for MGMT 320

 

                        Prerequisite:  MGMT 220.

 

Impact:  Eliminating this prerequisite should open up the course to additional students from a variety of disciplines.

 

Rationale: The course is currently undergoing revision that will alter it to make it more available to students from a variety of disciplines.  The concepts that are addressed and the means of introducing those concepts will no longer require a basic understanding of management as a prerequisite.

 

 

2.  Delete:        On pg. 167, after course description for MGMT 491

 

Prerequisites:  Senior standing, and completion of all required 300-level core management courses.  Pre- or corequisite: MGMT 480. Fall and Spring.

                                   

    Add:             On pg. 167, in place of deleted entry:

 

Prerequisites: MGMT 480, senior standing, and completion of all required 300-level core management courses. Fall and Spring.

 

 

Impact:  None. This change should not affect students’ ability to progress through the Management curriculum.

 

Rationale: Through feedback and analysis from various sources, we have determined that the students need an understanding of the models and theories introduced in MGMT 480 in order to receive maximum benefit from MGMT 491 (the capstone course for management majors).
