11 PURPOSE The purpose of Central State University is to provide opportunities in higher education for the citizens of Ohio and other qualified applicants, including both national and international students. MISSION Central State University, as Ohio s only public Historically Black University, academically prepares students with diverse backgrounds and educational needs for leadership and service in an increasingly complex and rapidly changing world. As an open access institution, the University fosters academic excellence through a strong liberal arts foundation and majors in selected professional fields. Central State University is dedicated to: providing a nurturing and culturally enriched learning environment; stimulating in students an intellectual curiosity and a continuous search for knowledge; teaching students to think critically and communicate effectively; instilling in students an aspiration for excellence through teaching, service, and scholarly research; preparing students to address the challenges of a technologically oriented world; providing quality educational programs in scientific and technological fields; offering programs with multicultural and global perspectives; reaching out to underserved populations; and collaborating with other educational institutions, business organizations and government agencies to enrich learning experiences and educational opportunities for students. HISTORY Central State University was established on March 19, 1887 by the Ohio General Assembly in an act that created a Combined Normal and Industrial Department at Wilberforce University. The older institution was founded by the African Methodist Episcopal Church in 1856 and named in honor of the great abolitionist, William Wilberforce. The new Department was considered to be a separate school and had its own Board of Trustees. In 1941, the General Assembly expanded the Department, which offered two-year courses, into a College of Education and Industrial Arts, which provided four-year college programs. In 1947, the College began operating independently from Wilberforce, continuing its programs in teacher education, industrial arts and business, and adding a four-year liberal arts program under the name Wilberforce State College. In 1951, the legislature provided the name Central State College, and in November 1965, Central State was granted university status. Today s CSU is Ohio s only predominantly African American public institution of higher education. The enacting legislation of 1887, however, stipulated that the institution be open to all persons of good moral character. This remains true today as Central State actively promotes ethnic diversity in its student body, faculty and staff in order to enrich the university experience, even as the institution maintains its core historical responsibility to educate African American youth for success, leadership, and service on state, national and global levels. The University offers 38 academic majors in 10 departments, located in the Colleges of Arts and Sciences, Business and Industry, and Education, as well as a Master s Degree in Education. LOCATIONS Central State University Main Campus is located in Wilberforce, Ohio, four miles northeast of Xenia and 18 miles east of Dayton. The main campus is midway between Cincinnati and Columbus on U.S. 42, about 55 miles from each city. Airline, bus and taxi services are available in Dayton. Central State University Dayton, the university s satellite location is located at 840 Germantown Street, Dayton, Ohio. THE CAMPUS Central State University has facilities valued at more than 95 million dollars, including the Center for Education and Natural Sciences; Cosby Mass Communications Center; the McLin Center for Water Resources Management; the Paul Robeson Cultural and Performing Arts Center; the Hallie Q. Brown Memorial Library; the Newsom Administration Building; the Ward University Center; the Galloway Tower; the Walter G. Sellers Alumni Center; and the Louis Stokes Center on Aging. 11

12 The Hallie Q. Brown Memorial Library has approximately 169,380 volumes, 590,000+ microfilms, a periodical collection of 2,058 titles, and an audiovisual collection of 4,348 pieces. The library is an integral part of the Ohio Library and Information Network (OHIOLINK), which links the state library and 59 Ohio private and public institutions of higher learning. Through the university library s computer workstations, CSU students and faculty can access any of the library holdings of the other member institutions. Additionally, the CSU library maintains membership in the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE), a consortium of 17academic, community, and special libraries which engages in cooperative acquisition of expensive and little-used materials that would be beyond the reach of an individual library. CSU faculty and students may borrow items directly from most of these participating libraries. Athletic facilities include the Walker Gymnasium, the Beacom-Lewis Gymnasium for intercollegiate basketball, tennis and racquetball courts, and McPherson Stadium for football and special events, and practice fields. The campus terrain is rolling and planted in lawns accented by flowering shrubs, trees and flower beds, and centered by the attractive Sunken Gardens. Spacious paved walkways make foot travel across the campus easy and convenient. Across Brush Row Road and along U.S. 42 is the University s outdoor education area, a natural reserve, and within a hundred yards of the Robeson Center is the National Afro-American Museum and Cultural Center, an outstanding facility that chronicles African American history and sponsors a variety of programs. Central State University Dayton offers array of evening and weekends classes for students seeking to receive a degree or obtain professional development. STUDENTS AND FACULTY Central State University s enrollment was at 2,436 students in the Fall of Of the total, 2,401 were undergraduates and 35 were graduate students. Central State University employs more than 200 full-time and adjunct faculty. In addition to their teaching and research, faculty members at Central State have a deep commitment to helping students outside the classroom, especially in academic advising and mentoring throughout the year.

15 Student Affairs Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center Second Floor Dr. Jerryl Briggs, Vice President for Student Affairs (937) Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center Room 302 Darryl A. Peal, Dean of Students (937) NORMAN E. WARD UNIVERSITY CENTER The Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center houses the following Student Affairs offices: The Dean of Students, Student Activities, Student Leadership and Development, Greek Affairs, Career Services, Student Government Association, Transportation and Intramurals. Its facilities include a ballroom, Bookstore, Commuter Student Lounge, Cyber Café, game room, Taco Bell and The Chill Spot. Numerous co-curricular activities are held in this facility each year. STANDARDS OF STUDENT CONDUCT The University expects all students to cooperate in maintaining high standards of personal conduct and social responsibility. Student self-government in the democratic tradition has been adopted as the process for the conduct of good citizenship on and off the campus. Additionally, stated University objectives and regulations governing student conduct are described in the Student Handbook. It is the responsibility of each student to become informed of these regulations. Standards for the conduct of student life are set forth in a code carefully written and regularly reviewed by a committee of students, faculty and staff members. This Code of Student Life reflects the principles expressed in the 1967 Joint Statement on Rights and Freedoms of Students, drafted and endorsed by the National Student Association, the American Association of University Professors and the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Accordingly, the code relates only to student misconduct which adversely affects University process or function, or some distinct interest of the University as an academic community. Students are expected to acquaint themselves with the code and to conduct themselves in accordance with the standards it sets forth. Attendance at Central State University is a privilege and not a right and may be forfeited by any student who does not abide by the regulations of the University or who is unwilling to adjust to the University environment through responsible conduct of high moral and ethical standards. Thus, University officials reserve the right to sever, for appropriate reasons and through due process, the connection of any student with the University. RESIDENCE LIFE Foundation II, Room 115 Mr. Raynaldo Gillus, Residence Director (937) All non-married full-time freshman and sophomore students are required to live in the University residence halls, if space is available. Junior students with an overall grade point average below 2.5 and who do not live with their parent(s) or a legal guardian are also required to live in the residence halls. Permission to live off-campus must be obtained in writing from the Director of Residence Life and approved by the Vice President of Enrollment Management/Student Services. Any student residing in a hall must be enrolled as a full-time student (12 hours or more credit hours is considered full-time). Failure to maintain full-time status will result in vacating the room. The student will still be responsible for payment for the room for that semester. The University agrees to assign accommodations only after a student has endorsed a housing contract and submitted a non-refundable housing application fee of $60. Subject to availability, the University will attempt to assign accommodations according to the student s preferences, but the University will not guarantee assignment to a particular room, residence hall or roommate. The Central State University Board of Trustees reserves the right to make any changes or adjustments in fees and charges at any time as conditions or circumstances make the changes necessary. Room assignments are made without regard to race, color, nationality or religion. Students wishing to be assigned with a certain roommate may request such at the time the application fee is paid. The University will 15

16 attempt to honor these requests. The possibilities are improved if the reservation is sent early, and if both parties wishing to room together send their contracts at the same time. The University provides room furniture as well as a computer outlet for each student and a cable TV outlet for each room. Each student is required to provide his/her own pillow, bed linen, blankets, bedspread, towels, study lamp, wash cloths, personal accessories and telephone. Prohibition of certain electrical appliances (see housing contract, Student Handbook and the Residence Life Living and learning Guide) will be adhered to. Supervision of living arrangements and food service is done with the student s health and welfare in mind. Students living in University residence halls are required to eat in the University Cafeteria. No charge is assessed for vacation periods, during which the cafeteria is closed. No reduction or refund will be made for failure to eat in the cafeteria. Students are expected to participate in the life of the residence hall in which they live, and to set standards for themselves. The use or distribution of drugs (narcotics, hallucinogens, stimulants, depressants, etc.), except for established medical purposes determined by the prescription of a physician or the reasonable use of non-prescription medicines, is prima facie evidence of drug abuse. Violators are subject to university disciplinary action. State and federal laws prohibit the distribution of drugs except by licensed agencies. The University cannot protect student violators from prosecution by law enforcement agencies. OFF-CAMPUS LIVING Eligible students may elect to live off campus in private housing. Rental units such as apartments or sleeping rooms with varying types of privileges are available in Wilberforce and in nearby communities including Xenia, Yellow Springs, Beavercreek, Cedarville and Fairborn. Information on the availability of housing can be obtained through the Residence Life office. GREEK AFFAIRS Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center, 1 st Floor Mr. William Murray, Coordinator for Greek Affairs (937) The Greek Letter organizations are identified by three categories: social, professional, and honorary. The Greek Letter organizations are governed by university rules and regulations and by the National Pan-Hellenic Council. Both governing bodies are overseen by the Office of the Dean of Students. Student involvement enhances the campus community and provides students with the opportunity to develop responsibility and leadership outside the classroom. INTRAMURALS Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center, 1 st Floor Mr. Al West, Coordinator of Intramurals and Wellness (937) The Intramural program offers a holistic approach to total wellness and fitness through a program designed for organized play in team building, cooperation, and unity. Refer to the Student Handbook for further information. THE LIONEL H. NEWSOM STUDENT LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center, 1 st Floor Office of Student Leadership and Development Ms. Kellea Tibbs (937) The Student Leadership and Development Program provide CSU students an opportunity to take positive action to prepare for a life of committed citizenship and leadership. The program has three components: Training Modules, Active Citizenship, and University and Community Service. Students who successfully complete the leadership program may receive a Student Leadership and Development Transcript that provides certification of citizenship experiences, service, or module completion. 16

17 STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION (SGA) Norman E. Ward University Center, 1 st Floor Office of Student Leadership and Development Ms. Kellea Tibbs (937) The Student Government Association (SGA) is a body of vested student representatives, with an executive and legislative board, senators and class officers with an office located in the Ward Center on the first floor. This body serves as the liaison between students, staff, faculty and administrators by keeping students informed through monthly mass student body meetings. SGA has the responsibility to seek and maintain a spirit of cooperation in the activities of the university and to encourage student initiative through service. Information concerning student participation in the various phases of self-governance is detailed in the Student Handbook. STUDENT ACTIVITIES Norman E. Ward, Sr. University Center, 1 st Floor Office of Student Activities Mr. Marc DeWitt, Coordinator of Student Activities (937) There are a variety of student programs, events and organizations that provide and reflect the diverse interests of the campus. Students interested in expanding their social, professional and academic development are encouraged to participate. Currently, there are approximately 41 student organizations on campus, classified under four categories: physical, mental, social, and spiritual. The Office of Student Activities and Inter-organizational Council (IOC) monitors the recognized student organizations. For more details, refer to the Student Handbook. CAREER SERVICES CENTER, COOPERATIVE EDUCATION, INTERNSHIPS AND SERVICE PROGRAMS Norman Ward Building, 1 st Floor (937) CAREER SERVICES CENTER The Career Services Center provides quality professional career counseling and career/life planning programs and experiential opportunities to all students. The Center achieves its goals by making available the following services: career counseling, on-campus interviewing for full-time prospective graduate and student teacher placement, networking, referrals, credential services, on-line graduate school information, careerrelated brochures/handbooks, up-to-date career writing and interview techniques, Career Day, and other services throughout the academic year. Job referrals for alumni, faculty and staff are available. All students who utilize the Center must submit a professional résumé and sign the Family Rights and Privacy Act Form (Buckley Amendment). To clear for graduation, prospective candidates must complete the Graduate Exit Form and provide a résumé. Students are highly encouraged to attend programs, utilize office services and register for placement services no later than the first semester of their sophomore year. COOPERATIVE EDUCATION PROGRAM The Cooperative Education Program at Central State University provides practical training, responsible management experiences and attitude development required for permanent job placement in career fields matching the student s interest and potentialities. Central State University and the Career Services Center set the general guidelines and educational objectives for the program and place students in co-op positions providing maximum educational advantage. The Center also provides an on-going student counseling and advisement service to assure a positive relationship among student, employer and the University. The University attempts to match students with assignments that are related to their career objectives, thus providing experiences that enhance knowledge acquired in the classroom. Once a Cooperative Education training assignment has been approved, the student must register for co-op and pay for co-op credits and fees 17

18 the same as for any other course. Students holding part-time or full-time jobs may register for academic credit. There are two types of co-op plans: Parallel Co-op: A parallel co-op is similar to a part-time job. The student enrolls in classes part-time (6 semester hours) and works 20 hours a week each semester. The student receives 6 semester credit hours for parallel co-op. Alternating Co-op: With an alternating co-op, the student alternates semesters between full-time work and full-time study. Students receive 12 semester credit hours for alternating co-op. Both of these plans are used by participating co-op employers and can be structured to fit any particular company need. Student Eligibility To be eligible for the Co-op Program, students must: 1. Have attained sophomore standing. 2. Have declared a major. 3. Submit a resume. 4. Sign the Buckley Amendment. 5. Have a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0. (The minimum average is subject to change pending employer requirements.) 6. Secure approval from the Academic Advisor or Department Chairperson, and from the Career Services Center. 7. Participate in on-campus interviews to acquire assignment (optional). NOTE: Transfer students must have attained sophomore standing and have completed one full-time semester at Central State University to be eligible for co-op. Majors/Options Cooperative Education is open to all majors/options. Consult the Departmental Chairperson within your discipline for eligibility. Academic Credit Academic credit is awarded as follows: 1. The student will receive a grade of credit (CR) or no credit (NC) for cooperative education. A final report and employer evaluation must be submitted and approved by a co-op counselor at the end of the assignment before credit (CR) is awarded. Co-op credit will appear on the transcript as Earned Hours and will have no effect on cumulative grade point average. 2. The student must be officially registered within the semester of the assignment to receive co-op credit. Credit is not awarded retroactively. 3. The student may participate in more than 2 co-op assignments; however, additional credit hours will not count towards graduation. 4. The decision whether co-op hours will substitute for other hours in the major is at the discretion of the Academic Advisor, Chairperson, Dean and Registrar. Registration After confirmation of a co-op assignment: 1. Pick up registration form from co-op counselor, academic advisor or the Office of the Registrar. 2. Obtain signature from the co-op counselor located in the Career Services Center. 3. Officially enroll in one of the following course numbers for parallel co-op for 6 semester hours: COE (students with semester hours); COE (students with semester hours); COE (student with 91+ semester hours) 4. Officially enroll in one of the following course numbers for alternating co-op for 12 semester hours: COE (students with semester hours); COE (students with semester hours); COE (student with 91+ semester hours) 5.

19 7. Verify that financial aid award letter, fees and semester registration are complete. The co-op assignment is not final until this verification. NOTE: The student may select any semester to participate in co-op. However, a co-op student may not enroll in more than 18 hours including the co-op hours. INTERNSHIPS There are various types of internships: Regular, Summer and Business. Interns are college students selected by companies/agencies to work in their field of study prior to graduation. A regular internship may consist of full or part-time employment and may take place during the academic semesters September through June. A summer internship occurs during the period of May through August. Credit cannot be awarded to students participating in a regular or summer internship if their department does not offer a credit option within their curriculum. Business Internship credit is available only to students selecting a major/option in the College of Business and Industry. VOLUNTEERISM Volunteerism is an experiential-based program which gives students an opportunity to test career choices while continuing their education. Volunteer positions can offer students part-time professional work when paid internships or a co-op are not available, and have many of the same advantages as a paid position. Volunteer positions usually occur within agencies that are not profit-oriented. Participation in the program is an excellent resume enhancement. For guidelines, academic credit and registration for the programs mentioned, consult the Departmental Chairperson, Career Services Center, the Cooperative Education Student Handbook or the Lionel H. Newsom Student Leadership Coordinator. Guidelines/policies are subject to change. INTER-FAITH CAMPUS MINISTRY Norman E.

RESIDENCE HALLS In accordance with the Housing Contract, students living in the residence halls are committed to on-campus housing for the duration of the contract (one academic year). These fees are non-refundable. Because of the shorter length of the Summer term, the charges for Room and Board are prorated. If it is necessary for a new key to be made during the semester, a new key fee must be paid before a new key is issued. The Room Damage Deposit and the Key Deposit will be refunded to the student s account if no damage is done to the residence hall room or contents and if after the last semester of enrollment the residence hall room key has been returned.

For example, a student who attends 20% of the term has earned 20% of the total aid value that was disbursed to their bill.

31 Financial Aid Norman E. Ward University Center, Ground Floor Norman E. Ward University Center, Second Floor Mrs. Robin Rucker Mrs. Phyllis Jeffers-Coly Director of Admissions Dean of Enrollment Services (937) (937) STUDENT FINANCIAL AID Central State University offers financial aid to all eligible students based upon financial need and academic standing. Central State University utilizes the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine the eligibility of the financial aid applicant for grants, loans, and employment. You may access FAFSA on line at The priority deadline to receive full consideration for student aid is March 1, for continuing students to complete the FAFSA. For new Freshman and Transfer students, the priority deadline is February 15. Students selected for verification must submit all their documents by April 15. AWARD NOTIFICATION Each year students are required to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), to be considered for most types of financial aid. The FAFSA is used to determine a student s eligibility for federal aid. Students may accept or decline any portion of the financial aid award listed. All aid offers are contingent on the availability of federal, state, and institutional funds and the student s continued eligibility. You can view your financial aid award online via your MyCSU account. Paper award letters will only be mailed to first-time students. You should maintain a file containing all financial aid correspondence and information, as well as all statements of account. This will assist in answering any questions that might occur in the future. FINANCIAL NEED Aid from most of the programs discussed in this catalog is awarded on the basis of financial need. When you apply for federal student aid, the information you report is used in a formula established by the U.S. Congress. The formula determines your Expected Family Contribution (EFC), an amount used to determine a student s eligibility to receive certain need-based aid. The Office of Financial Aid does not automatically renew your financial aid. COST OF ATTENDANCE AT CSU The cost of attendance at CSU for an academic year (two semesters) is based on the assumption that a student will be enrolled full-time (12 to 18 credit hours) each semester. The budget for students is shown below to assist you and your parent(s) in estimating your cost of education. BUDGET FOR COST OF ATTENDANCE FOR ACADEMIC SCHOOL YEAR In-State Student (Ohio Residents) Tuition and fees $5, Room and Board 8, Books and Supplies 1, Transportation Miscellaneous/Personal 1, TOTAL $16, Out-of-State Student Tuition and fees $12, Room and Board 8, Books and Supplies 1, Transportation Miscellaneous/Personal 1, TOTAL $24, THE FINANCIAL AID AWARD How Financial Aid is awarded: The Office of Student Financial Aid has developed a philosophy of awarding various types of aid to students that is designed to meet several objectives given the resources available. The objectives are: 1. Meeting the need of as many students as possible. 2. Awarding each student the best combination of funds available. 3. Awarding the total amount of funds available during the award period. 4. Limiting, if possible, the amount borrowed by students to a minimum required level. 5. Awarding funds according to donor specifications. 31

32 AWARDING AID ON THE BASIS OF HOURS ENROLLED During the academic year your financial aid award will be based on the number of hours for which you are registered. We assume that you will be enrolled full-time (a minimum of twelve credit hours each semester) unless you have indicated otherwise. This is reflected in the original award notification, which outlines the exact types and amount of aid to be received for the period of enrollment. For those students who are enrolled less than fulltime, all affected aid will be reduced proportionately, and other aid (i.e., state grants or outside full-time scholarships) that requires full-time attendance may be canceled. For example, if you enrolled for six hours (half-time) Fall Semester, some aid for that semester may be reduced to onehalf the amount of aid for which you would be eligible as a full-time student. Students enrolled less than full-time will be required to repay those funds previously credited or disbursed for full-time enrollment during a given semester. ADJUSTMENTS TO FINANCIAL AID AWARDS Receipt of outside awards and /or resources will result in a review of your financial aid package to ensure that no over-awarding of federal or state funds has been made. For those students who receive outside awards and/or resources, and have had their demonstrated financial need met with awards including campus-based funds, financial aid awards must be reduced dollar for dollar by the amount of the outside award based on federal regulations. Students who receive campus-based funds and still have remaining unmet financial need equal to or greater than the amount of an outside award will not have their aid reduced. Any student who receives a combination of outside and institutional gift aid assistance in excess of the amount it costs to attend the academic year will have institutional funds reduced or canceled so that the total award does not exceed the cost of attendance (budget). CHANGE IN FINANCIAL SITUATION Your family s financial situation may change after you submit your Free Application for Federal Student Aid or Renewal Application. In the event of a substantial change in your family circumstances (such as a loss of employment or the death of a parent), you should notify the Office of Financial Aid immediately to request a reevaluation and possible adjustment to your award. Your appeal must describe the change in detail, specifying the changes in dollar amounts. Any adjustment in your aid award is contingent upon your eligibility according to program regulations and the availability of funds. EMPLOYMENT OPTIONS The Federal Work-Study Program involves a part-time job on campus which gives the student an opportunity to gain work experience and earn extra money to help meet educational expenses. The eligible student is placed by the Financial Aid Office. Job assignments can be in a variety of areas such as clerical, office services, student activities and lab assisting. The student works no more than 20 hours per week. The student may work up to 40 hours per week when classes are not in session. To be determined eligible, the student must meet requirements explained on this page. FINANCIAL AID PAYMENTS TO STUDENTS Federal Loans funds will not be credited to your account until you have completed and signed a Master Promissory Note (MPN), and Entrance counseling in accordance with the instructions that accompanied these forms. Scholarships, grants, and loan funds are credited to your account at the University on the 14 th day of the term. Federal Work Study (if earned through on-campus employment) is received in the form of a paycheck every two weeks beginning approximately four weeks after you begin campus employment for the hours worked. Other funds that may be listed on the award letter, such as outside scholarships, are received directly from those sources. The University may or may not be involved in disbursement of these funds. This section involves only those funds disbursed through the University billing system scholarships, grants, and long-term loans.

SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS FOR FINANCIAL AID Federal financial aid funds are awarded with the understanding that students will make progress toward their chosen degree. Central State University, as directed by the U.S. Department of Education, has established Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress that students must meet in order to receive Title IV student aid. Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress apply to the following types of federal financial aid: Federal Pell Grant, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Academic Competitiveness Grant (ACG), National SMART Grant, TEACH Grant, Federal Work-Study, Federal Perkins Loan, Nursing Loan, Health Professions Loan, Federal Stafford Loan, Federal Graduate PLUS Loan, and Federal Parent PLUS Loan. What are the standards of Student Academic Progress that I am expected to meet? Undergraduate Student Standards The Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress for undergraduate students has two measures - - qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative Measure Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA): As a student, you will know if you are meeting SAP requirements based on your cumulative GPA and the quality hours you have earned: Quality Hours Minimum Cumulative GPA Quantitative Measure Completion Rate Requirements: The maximum time frame for a student to complete the educational objective at Central State University is 150% of the published length of the educational program. In other words, a student typically has six years to complete a four-year degree. However, consideration is given to the student s enrollment status i.e. part-time and full-time. 35

36 You must successfully complete at least two-thirds (67%) of your total cumulative credit hours attempted 1. What happens if I don t meet the SAP requirements? If you are not meeting one and/or both of the measures of SAP, you will be initially placed on financial aid probation for one semester. At the end of the probation period, your academic progress will be reevaluated. At this time, if you are meeting both measures of academic progress, then you will once again be in good standing. However, if you are still not meeting the completion rate requirements, then your financial aid eligibility will be suspended. What does it mean when my financial aid is suspended? Suspension of financial aid means that you will no longer be eligible to receive any federal aid (including federal loan assistance) until you are once again meeting the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy. Can SAP affect me if I am a Transfer Student? Yes, SAP can affect you as a Transfer Student. Credit hours accepted by CSU will be included in the maximum time frame towards completion of a degree. What if I have not attended Central State for over 1 semester, will my past credits be considered towards SAP? Yes, all prior credits will be considered in determining SAP for students who return to CSU after one or more semesters of absence. If I change my major will those credits be reviewed for SAP? General education requirements credits will be considered in determining you SAP. However, for students who change majors, credits attempted and grades earned for a previous major that do not count toward the new major will not be included in the SAP determination. What grades are calculated when determine SAP? ALL of them. Grades of IP (In-progress), W (Withdrew), and WP (Withdrew passing) are not included in calculating a student s GPA, but as coursework attempted. WF (Withdrew Failing) and FA (Failing due to attendance) are counted as an F. How does SAP apply to graduate students? Graduate students must also meet Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress. There are two components to the policy for these students: timeframe and grade point average. Maximum Timeframe for a Master's degree program is six years and the requisite Grade Point Average is determined by individual colleges or departments but must be above a 2.0. Can I appeal a SAP decision? Yes. You have the right to appeal if you are experiencing extenuating circumstances. Appeal forms are available online. Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeals Committee (SAPAC) meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month. Appeals are reviewed in the order received. Appeals must be received no later than the first Thursday of the month to be reviewed at that month s meeting. The decision of the appeals committee is final and only one may be granted. Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Procedures At the end of spring semester each year, the academic records of all students who are receiving or applying for federal financial aid will be reviewed. Those students who fail to meet the Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress will be sent a letter notifying them of their status. This letter will also outline steps students can take to maintain or restore their eligibility. 1 The number of credits that must be earned is based upon the number of hours attempted and the appropriate enrollment status. Even periods of enrollment when you do not receive federal assistance will be counted in the evaluation of satisfactory academic progress 36

38 Registration Lionel Newsom Administration Building, Room 105 Larry R. Cannon University Registrar (937) The Office of the Registrar conducts the process of registering students in courses, maintaining official academic records and certifying students for graduation. This office is also responsible for calculating and recording the academic progress of students. REGISTRATION PROCEDURE Central State University is on the semester system. The academic year is divided into two semesters (fall and spring) and two summer sessions. Registration is open to all continuing students according to the Academic Calendar available on CSU s web site. The dates are published in the Academic Calendar on CSU s web site. Fees for students who register early are due prior to the start of the semester and are published on CSU s web site. During the open registration period, students must pay fees or prove ability to pay. Late registration allows students to register one week before classes begin with an additional fee for late registration. Registration is not complete until certified by the Cash Management Office. All incomplete registrations must be cancelled by the student. Students must be officially registered for classes during the semester in order to be eligible to receive grades at the end of the semester. Students will not be retroactively registered once the semester has ended. If a student has reason to request an exception to this policy, the request must be submitted in writing to the Academic Standards Committee. COURSE CREDIT-UNIT OF INSTRUCTION Course credit is computed in terms of semester hours. The semester hour is the unit of instruction used in computing the amount of work required for graduation. One semester hour is equivalent to one fifty-minute period of lecture or recitation per week during the semester. STUDY LOAD A normal study load is 15 to 18 semester hours. The maximum study load is 21 hours per semester for the Fall and Spring Semesters. A normal study load for the Summer term is 12 to 15 hours. The maximum for Summer enrollment is 18 hours, permission required. Written approval of the Department Chairperson and the College Dean is required if a student wishes to enroll in more than 18 semester hours during Fall and Spring Semesters. A student who enrolls in more than 18 semester hours without approval of the Department Chairperson and the College Dean will be required to drop all hours above 18. Twenty-one semester hours is the maximum number of hours for which credit will be granted during Fall and Spring Semesters by Central State University, including credit taken for classes on campus, through SOCHE Consortium cross-registration, or as a transient student at another institution. A FULL-TIME student is one who enrolls for 12 or more credit hours per semester. Students registering for more than 18 credit hours per semester must obtain permission from their Department Chairperson and the College Dean. A PART-TIME student is one who enrolls for 11 or fewer credit hours per semester. STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ON GRADE CHANGES Grade changes, with the appropriate approvals, will be processed by the Office of the Registrar, up to two (2) years after the completion of a course. This policy does not apply to I grades. GRADING AND GRADE POINTS Students will not be retroactively registered once the semester has ended. If a student has reason to request an exception to this policy, the request must be submitted in writing to the Academic Standards Committee. At the close of each semester a letter grade indicating the quality of the student s work is 38

39 reported by the instructor to the Office of the Registrar. Most departmental major courses require the student to earn a C grade or better in order for the course to satisfy graduation requirements. If a student receives a D or F grade in such a course, the student will be required to repeat the course. No course substitutions or waivers will be permitted to replace the course in which an unsatisfactory grade was received. The repeat attempt must take place at CSU. The student may not take a comparable course at another institution and transfer it back to CSU in an attempt to satisfy the CSU requirement. Points are assigned to each letter grade. The students are graded in accordance with the grading system. Grading standards are a faculty prerogative. Grade A - Very High 4 B - High 3 C - Satisfactory 2 D - Low (poor work) 1 F - Failure 0 Z - Non-Attendance 0 FZ - I - GRADING SYSTEM Grade Point Letter Interpretation per Semester Hour S - U - P - Quit Attending/Didn t Withdraw Incomplete Satisfactory Unsatisfactory Pass CR - Credit NC - No Credit AU - Audit IP - In Progress W- Withdrawal CALCULATING THE GRADE POINT AVERAGE The Grade Point Average can be obtained by multiplying the credit hours for each course by the points generated by each grade earned for the course. Next add the credit hours column being careful to exclude courses with grades that by policy do not calculate in the GPA. Then, add the points earned column. Finally, divide the points by the credit hours to obtain the GPA. EXAMPLE: Letter Grade Credit Hours Grade Points Quality Points PSY 2000 B 5 x 3 = 15 BUS 1000 D 3 x 1 = 3 EDU 1330 A 2 x 4 = 8 GEL 1010 C 4 x 2 = 8 Total Grade Point Average (34 divided by 14) = 2.42 STUDENT CLASSIFICATION Freshman: A student who has earned 30 credit hours or less. Sophomore: A student who has earned between 31 and 60 credit hours. Junior: A student who has earned between 61 and 90 credit hours. Senior: A student who has earned 91 or more credit hours. SATISFACTORY ACADEMIC PROGRESS Central State University s primary goal is to provide a nurturing educational environment in which students may develop their intellectual potential. Students are expected to actively pursue their coursework and maintain persistence in fulfilling degree requirements within a reasonable time frame. Students are expected to meet the standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress stated below. Petitions for exceptions to these standards may be submitted to the Academic Standards Committee. Such petitions must be in writing and must be accompanied by appropriate documentations. Specifics of any unusual circumstances that warrant an exception to stated policy should be clearly explained and documented. The Academic Standards Committee reviews such petitions and makes recommendations to the Academic Vice President who may grant exceptions to stated policy on an individual case basis. 39

40 Minimum grade point averages for Satisfactory Academic Progress are as follows: Total Cumulative Quality Hours Grade Point Average and above 2.0 ACADEMIC PROBATION AND SUSPENSION A minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 is required for completion of an undergraduate degree at Central State University. Some programs require a higher GPA. When the cumulative grade point average falls below the required minimum, students will be Placed on Academic Probation for the following semester. At this point, the student is required to register with the Office of the Academic Advising and Assistance and will be assigned an academic advisor to complete an academic success plan. NOTE: Students are permitted to enroll the next semester, but must earn a 2.0 for that semester. If the next semester s GPA is less than 2.0 and the cumulative GPA is less than the required minimum, the student will be Academically Suspended at the end of that term. Students who wish to return, after remaining out the appropriate period of time, may obtain an Appeal for Readmission packet from the Office of the Registrar. After completing the Appeal form, the student must make an appointment with his/her Academic Advisor to review the Appeal, prepare the Time Management Plan, and complete the Student Readmission Agreement in preparation for submission to the Academic Standards Committee. The Appeal must be submitted to your Academic Advisor no later than 60 days prior to the beginning of the term. The Committee must receive from the advisor, your Appeal at least 30 days prior to the beginning of the term in which the student wishes to re-enroll. Students, who are academically suspended for the first time, will not be allowed to enroll for the next semester. Students who have been academically suspended for a second time are not eligible to be considered for readmission for one academic year. After a third academic suspension, readmission may not be granted. These guidelines also apply to transfer students who have been dismissed or required to withdraw from the last college or university attended. APPEAL FOR READMISSION AFTER BEING ACADEMICALLY SUSPENDED A student who has been academically suspended and who seeks readmission must submit a petition to the Academic Standards Committee. Appeals are available from the Office of the Registrar. Appeals for readmission must include a plan signed by both the student and an academic advisor. The chair of the student s major program and the Dean of the student s college must also sign appeals for readmission. Once readmitted, students must show evidence of following the agreed upon plan for academic success. Failure to do so will be taken into account in the review of any future appeals for readmission. Appeals must be filed with your Academic Advisor at least 60 days prior to the beginning of the semester for which one is seeking readmission. The Committee must receive from the advisor, your Appeal at least 30 days prior to the beginning of the term in which the student wishes to re-enroll. Hours and grades earned at another accredited institution during period of academic suspension from Central State will be considered during the decision on whether to grant readmission. If the student is readmitted, credit hours earned at another institution will be accepted and posted to the student s transcript in accordance with rules on the application of all transfer credit in effect at the time of readmission. Students who are admitted after being Academically Suspended will be readmitted on Academic Probation must achieve at least a 2.0 semester GPA or they will be Academically Suspended again. NOTE: The student is required to register with the Office of the Academic Advising and Assistance and will be assigned an academic advisor to complete an academic success plan. Readmission after one or two Academic Suspensions is not automatic and may be denied upon the recommendation of the Academic Standards Committee. While the Academic Standards Committee will consider petitions for readmission after three or more academic suspensions, such petitions will be approved only under the most exceptional circumstances. Students with multiple academic suspensions are advised to pursue their education at another institution or to consider a career path that does not require an undergraduate degree. 40

41 TRANSFER APPLICATION An applicant who was enrolled in another college or university for at least one course is classified as a transfer applicant. Official transcripts (sealed envelope with the raised seal on the document) from all other institutions attended must be submitted to the Office of Admissions as part of the Central State University Application. Failure to list attendance at a college or university on the admissions application may be grounds for revocation of admission or dismissal from the university. The Office of the Registrar will evaluate overall transfer credit for acceptance by the University. The Department Chair, of the department you are seeking entrance into, will evaluate credits for their applicability to program and degree requirements. How accepted transfer credits are applied toward degree requirements will take place within the first 30 days of your matriculation at Central State University. The student will receive a copy of the degree check sheet and if applicable, a course substitution form will be sent to the Registrar s Office at this time. ADVANCE STANDING In order for advance standing to be granted, institutions you have attended must be accredited by one of six national accrediting agencies: Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools North Central Association of Colleges and Schools New England Association of Schools and Colleges Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges Southern Association of Colleges and Schools /Commission on Colleges Western Association of Schools and Colleges You can check the accreditation of your institution online at The acceptance of transfer credits from any other institutions must be approved by the Office of the Registrar. Central State University operates on a semester academic calendar. One semester credit equals 1.5 quarter credits. For example, if you transfer 15 quarter credits, that will be the equivalent of 10 semester credits. Central State University will accept Advanced Placement Credit Program credits (AP) and College-Level Examination Program credits (CLEP) under the auspices of the College Board. To receive AP credit a high school student must have completed an official AP (advanced placement) course and taken the test in that subject. Credit is granted for test scores of 3, 4, or 5. CLEP examinations cover material taught in the first two years of college. Students earning satisfactory scores in the CLEP examination will be granted the same amount of credit granted to students who successfully complete the course. Credit is also accepted from the Defense Activity for Nontraditional Education Support (DANTES). Central State University awards transfer credit for Military Experience based upon the American Council on Education s Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services. Applicants interested in receiving consideration for any of these alternative forms of credit must have the official score report sent directly to the Office of the Registrar, where official granting of credit begins. You may transfer a great many credits from another institution; however, you are still required to earn a minimum of 30 semester hours at CSU. Your Department Chair may require you to take specific courses at Central State University to earn your degree. This information should be shared with you at the time you receive your official check sheet. TRANSFER CREDIT POLICY Central State University accepts transfer credit from colleges and universities accredited by regional accrediting associations. The registrar will determine whether the university accepts credit from other universities. Under state law, the university is required to accept grades of D or better for transfer credit from state assisted colleges and universities in Ohio. (Credits from D grade courses will count towards the 124 credits required for graduation. However, the student may still need to repeat the class if Central State requires a C grade in the course.) Grades of C or better are generally acceptable from out-of-state schools. Department chairs will determine whether credits accepted by Central State may be used to satisfy major requirements. Grades of S, pass and credit are considered for transfer credit. Students who have already received a baccalaureate degree from an accredited institution and wish to pursue a second baccalaureate degree will automatically receive 94 semester credit hours. They will be ranked as seniors and will need to complete a minimum of 30 semester credit hours at Central State 41

42 University to earn a second baccalaureate degree. An advisor will determine degree and whether the student will need to take more than 30 credits to complete the second degree. INCOMPLETE A grade of incomplete I is a temporary grade assigned to students who lack final assignments or projects, or who, for some other extenuating circumstance, were unable to complete the requirements of the course within the semester. This grade is assigned by the instructor with the consent of the student, and the mutual understanding of the conditions under which this grade may be changed. The incomplete grade requires the signature of the instructor and the student with a brief description of the requirements necessary to receive a grade. Both the student and the instructor understand that if the additional coursework is not satisfactorily completed and submitted to the instructor within six (6) weeks after the beginning of the next semester of enrollment (up to one year), the grade will change to an F. The instructor has ten (10) days after the stated deadline to process the paperwork and to submit the Change of Grade Report to the Office of the Registrar. Once an I grade has been changed to an F grade, no further change is permitted. Individual exceptions to this policy, due to extenuating circumstances, will be considered by the Academic Standards Committee upon receipt of a formal appeal presented to the Committee by the student s Academic Advisor or Department Chair. REPEATING A COURSE Students may repeat most courses in which a grade was earned. All course repeat attempts will be recorded on the student s academic record. The first grade earned will be excluded from the calculation of the cumulative grade point average by the last repeat attempt. Students are advised to check with the Office of Financial Aid to determine the effect of repeated courses on their financial aid awards. AUDITING COURSES Students are permitted to audit courses but will receive neither grades nor credit for those courses. The student who audits is expected to attend class but is not required to submit assignments or take examinations, unless contractually agreed. The fees for auditing are the same as those for enrolling for credit. Changing from audit to credit or from credit to audit is not permitted once the registration is complete. SOCHE - STUDENT CROSS-REGISTRATION PROGRAM Cross-Registration is a program of the Southwestern Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) to allow students who are degree-seeking and/or participating in certification programs access to academic opportunities not available at their own institutions. Students attending colleges and universities within SOCHE may register for courses that are applicable to their degree program offered by other SOCHE institutions. Generally, all classes, including those offered through distance education, are open, subject to space availability and completion of prerequisites and with permission of the host institution. Courses categorized as workshops are not available for cross-registration. In order to cross-register for a course at another SOCHE institution, the desired course(s) must not be offered at the student s home institution during the term in which the student desires to enroll. Students must adhere to the cross-registration guidelines established at each SOCHE-member institution. SOCHE brochures and additional information are available in the Office of the Registrar. SENIOR CITIZEN ENROLLMENT Senior citizens who are Ohio residents may enroll in classes at Central State University free of charge for audit status only. Such enrollment is made on a space available basis during the Late Registration period only. Senior citizens enrolling in classes are responsible for meeting limited course prerequisites and for the payment of any special course fees which may apply. Proper identification is required (Golden Buckeye card or verification of age 60). 42

43 DROP/ADD COURSES Students may drop or add courses during the first nine days of the semester. Students are not permitted to add courses after the first nine days of the semester. Exceptions require the written permission of the instructor. Students may drop courses during the first nine days of the semester without record. All drops after the ninth day of class will result in a grade of W. Students are not permitted to drop classes after the last day of the 12th week of the semester. DECLARING A MAJOR All new students are assigned to an academic department and a professional advisor for mentoring and advising. It is expected that a major be declared during the first semester of enrollment. A Declaration of Major form must be completed and filed in the Registrar s Office no later than the sophomore year. MAJORS AND MINORS A student must declare a major in the department of choice upon entering the University. The major may be changed at any time during the student s academic career, however, the student should finalize a major no later than the beginning of the junior year, since certain General Education courses are required in specific disciplines. A major consists of a minimum of 30 semester hours, while a minor is a concentration of at least 20 to 24 semester hours. (See under each individual department s degree requirements.) Students seeking an Ohio Teaching License should confer with the Dean of the College of Education. DOUBLE MAJORS A student who plans to pursue more than one major notifies the Office of the Registrar of such an intention and completes major requirements for both programs, the General Education requirements being common to both. The student should note, however, that the special requirements for the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees differ. The student combining two such majors must satisfy both sets of special requirements. (See GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS.) The transcript will reflect both majors. Such a student has two academic advisors to assist in coordinating the programs, but it is the responsibility of the student to notify the Office of the Registrar at the time the decision is made to pursue two majors. GRADUATION Prospective graduates are required to file an application for graduation with the Office of the Registrar and pay the application fee during the application period as outlined in the Academic Calendar. The application fee is nonrefundable and non-transferable. The academic advisor, the department chairperson, and the dean will verify that degree requirements have been satisfactorily completed for graduation. Course substitutions or waivers must be submitted on a Substitution/Waiver Form and must be approved by the academic advisor, department chairperson and the dean. The Registrar will certify that all graduation requirements have been satisfied after receipt and review of the student s final grades. A major requires the successful completion of a minimum concentration of 30 credit hours of work in a specific field. In those departments that require a minor, a concentration of 20 to 24 credit hours is necessary. Students who seek an Ohio Teaching License should confer with an advisor in the College of Education for guidance. APPLICATIONS FOR GRADUATION Applications for Graduation are accepted beginning September 15th of the year preceding the student s anticipated graduation date. A $20 application fee is required (this fee can be charged to your account). The application fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. All commencement regalia are available for purchase at Senior Salute or the University Book Store. Applications are valid only for the academic year in which they are submitted. The following steps and minimum requirements must be satisfied in order for a student to be considered as an applicant for graduation: 1. Contact your academic advisor for a graduation evaluation. 2. Submit a completed Application for Graduation, Degree Check sheet and the $20 application fee by the last day of final examinations for the Fall Semester. An incremented late fee of $10 per month will be accessed, 43

44 in addition to the application fee, beginning December 1st (i.e. $10 December 1st, $20 January 1st, $30 February 1st, etc.) for Graduation Applications submitted after the Fall Semester deadline. Graduation Applications will be accepted through March 1st, with payment of the late fee. To participate in the May Commencement Ceremony your application must be submitted by March 1st. 3. All course requirements must be completed by the end of the Spring Semester. 4. A minimum cumulative grade point average is required for graduation from Central State University. The actual requirement varies by degree earned and by major program of study and will always be a 2.00 GPA or better. Students must check with their college and major department to determine their GPA requirements. 5. Take and pass the English Proficiency Examination or enroll in ENG 3000 and successfully complete the course with a C grade or better. 6. Pay or make satisfactory arrangements to pay your financial obligations to the University by March 15th. Graduation Applications for candidates who do not complete their requirements as planned, are retained by the Registrar for three (3) years. Students in this group who wish to re-apply for graduation for a subsequent semester may do so by submitting a letter of intent accompanied by the appropriate application fee. Students who have not submitted an Application for Graduation within the last three years must complete a new Application, and pay the appropriate fee. NOTE: Except in cases of inclement weather, the Commencement Ceremony is held in McPherson Stadium. CATALOG FOR GRADUATION Students have a total of eight calendar years in which to complete the degree requirements for graduation. Students who take longer than eight years from the date of initial enrollment to graduate will be subject to degree requirements of the current catalog. ENGLISH PROFICIENCY REQUIREMENT FOR GRADUATION (See page 61, Under ASSESSMENT OF THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM). RELEASE OF RECORDS/TRANSCRIPTS The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, govern the maintenance and release of records/transcripts. A copy of these regulations is available in the Office of the Registrar. The University will not release a copy of the student s grades without the student s permission, except where required by law. If a prior balance is owed to the University, the student s transcript (official or unofficial) will not be released. The student must pay the prior balance before a transcript will be issued (Finance Policy #8609). RESIDENCY An Out-of-State student who feels that he/she qualifies as an In-State resident must complete a request to change residency status form and submit it to the Office of the Registrar. Supporting documentation and verification is required. In-state residency approval is neither retroactive nor automatic. All requests for residency changes, with supporting documentation, must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar no later than one week prior to the beginning of the semester for which the residency change is requested.

Students, who are 25 years of age at the time of entry into CSU or at time of re-entry after extended absence, are exempt from the one-hour physical activity course requirement. Students who are exempt from the physical activity requirement must make up the exempted hour to complete the minimum 124 hours toward graduation. Note: Please see the General Education Requirements check sheet and lists of approved courses on pages EXCEPTIONS TO THE GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS Students may be exempt from some General Education courses on the basis of Entrance Test scores. A student may be exempt from ENG 1100 on the basis of entry test scores. Exemption does not mean that the student receives credit for that course; it means only that he/she is excused from the specific course, but must make up the additional hours for graduation. Other exceptions to the General Education requirements occur when the student s major field requires specific introductory courses in the Social Sciences, Natural Sciences and Humanities. The three music degrees offered in the Department of Fine and Performing Arts have General Education Requirements that are different from the University requirements in order for these programs to meet the curriculum standards of the National Association of Schools of Music. General Education requirements for these three programs total semester hours, and are listed on the department s checksheets. 50

53 Transfer Module State Policy INSTITUTIONAL TRANSFER The Ohio Board of Regents, following the directive of the Ohio General Assembly, has developed a statewide policy to facilitate movement of students and transfer credits from one Ohio public college or university to another. The purpose of the state policy is to avoid duplication of course requirements and to enhance student mobility throughout Ohio s higher education system. Since independent colleges and universities in Ohio may or may not be participating in the transfer policy, students interested in transferring to an independent institution are encouraged to check with the college or university of their choice regarding transfer agreements. TRANSFER MODULE The Ohio Board of Regents Transfer and Articulation Policy established the Transfer Module, which is a specific subset or the entire set of a college or university s general education requirements. The Transfer Module contains quarter hours or semester hours of specified course credits in English composition, mathematics, fine arts, humanities, social and behavioral sciences, natural science and physical sciences and interdisciplinary coursework. A Transfer Module completed at one college or university will automatically meet the requirements of the Transfer Module at the receiving institution, once the student is accepted. Students may be required, however, to meet additional general education requirements that are not included in the Transfer Module. CONDITIONS FOR TRANSFER ADMISSION Students meeting the requirements of the Transfer Module are subject to the following conditions: 1. The policy encourages receiving institutions to give preferential consideration for admission to students who complete the Transfer Module and either the Associate of Arts or the Associate of Science degrees. These students will be able to transfer all courses in which they received a passing grade of D or better. Students must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 to be given credit for the Transfer Module. 2. The policy also encourages receiving institutions to give preferential consideration for admission to students who complete the Transfer Module with a grade of C or better in each course and 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours. Students must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 to be given credit for the Transfer Module and only courses in which a C or better has been earned will transfer. 3. The policy encourages receiving institutions to admit on a non-preferential basis those students who complete the Transfer Module with a grade of C or better in each course and less than 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours. These students will be able to transfer all courses in which they received a grade of C or better. Admission to a given institution, however, does not guarantee that a transfer student will be automatically admitted to all majors, minors, or fields of concentration at that institution. Once admitted, transfer students shall be subject to the same regulations governing applicability of catalog requirements as all other students. Furthermore, transfer students shall be accorded the same class standing and other privileges as all other students on the basis of the number of credits earned. All residency requirements must be successfully completed at the receiving institution prior to the granting of a degree. RESPONSIBILITIES OF STUDENTS In order to facilitate transfer with maximum applicability of transfer credit, prospective transfer students should plan a course of study that will meet the requirements of a degree program at the receiving institution. Specifically, students should identify early in their collegiate studies an institution and major to which they desire to transfer. Furthermore, students should determine if there are language requirements or any special course requirements that can be met during the freshman or sophomore year. This will enable students to plan and pursue a course of study that will articulate with the receiving institution s major. Students are encouraged to seek further information regarding transfer from both their advisor and the college or university to which they plan to transfer. 53

54 TRANSFER APPEALS PROCESS A multi-level, broad-based appeal process is required to be in place at each institution. A student disagreeing with the application of transfer credit by the receiving institution shall be informed of the right to appeal the decision and the process for filing the appeal. Each institution shall make available to students the appeal process for that specific college or university. If a transfer student s appeal is denied by the institution after all appeal levels within the institution have been exhausted, the institution shall advise the student in writing of the availability and process of appeal to the state level Articulation and Transfer Appeals Review Committee. This State Appeals Review Committee shall hear and recommend to institutions the resolution of individual cases of appeal from transfer students who have exhausted local appeal mechanisms concerning applicability of transfer credits at receiving institutions. PROCEDURES A student appealing a decision on the applicability of transfer credit must have exhausted campus-level appeals and must have received a final decision before submitting the matter for further review by the State Appeals Review Committee. The State Appeals Review Committee shall have the power to obtain all records and documents used in the deliberation of the matter at the campus level. Neither the student appealing the decision nor the representative of the institution shall have a right of personal appearance before the committee. STEPS IN THE TRANSFER APPEALS PROCESS 1. The institution publishes both state and local appeal procedures in the catalog or other appropriate student-oriented publication. 2. The student applies for admission. 3. The institution evaluates transcript of accepted student. 4. The institution decides on applicability of credit and sends dated statement of transfer credit applicability to student along with a notification of the 90-day period for filing an appeal. 5. If the student accepts the judgment, the process ends. 6. If the student challenges the judgment, he/she appeals within the institution. 7. The institution initiates its internal appeal process which must involve individuals who did not participate in the original decision. If the institution s appeal process provides for only two stages, initial review and appeal review, then this stage must provide for an institution-wide perspective. If more than one review step is involved, the final step must involve an institution-wide perspective. At each appeal level, the institution shall respond to the appeal within 30 days of the receipt of the appeal. 8. The institution notifies the student and the department, in writing, of judgment and informs the student of the right to a state appeal process and the address to which appeals may be sent. 9. If the student accepts the judgment of the institution s internal review process, the process ends. 10. If the student challenges the judgment, the student appeals to the State Appeals Review Committee. 11. The State Appeals Review Committee notifies the student and the institution of the date of the hearing and requested information. 12. A hearing is held by the State Appeals Review Committee. 13. The State Appeals Review Committee notifies the student and the institution of advisory judgment. 14. The institution considers the advisory judgment of the State Appeals Review Committee. 15. The institution notifies the student of the disposition of the advisory judgment. 16. The process ends. CENTRAL STATE UNIVERSITY TRANSFER APPEALS PROCESS This appeal process will address the applicability of transfer credits between institutions. The process applies to all undergraduate courses, not just those in the Transfer Module. Any student applying for admission to Central State University must have a transcript(s) of credits sent to the Office of Admission for review. The transcripts of accepted students will be analyzed for applicability of credits and the student will be served with a dated statement of credit applicability along with a notification of the 90-day period for filing an appeal. The Registrar, in consultation with the appropriate department chair, will determine the applicability of the general education credits. 54

55 The Department chair will determine what courses can be applied toward the major. This determination may be based on the grade received in the course as well as course content. For example, if native students are required to earn a grade of C or better in a course, transfer students may be required to repeat a course with a grade of D regardless of whether it is acceptable for the Transfer Module. If a student disagrees with the decision of the Registrar on the applicability of courses for the general education requirements, the student may appeal that decision to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs within 90 days after receiving the decision from the Registrar. The Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs will render a final decision within 30 days after receiving the appeal. The decision of the Academic Affairs office will be final. If a student disagrees with the decision of the chairperson on the applicability of transfer credits in the major area, that student may, within 90 days, appeal to the Dean of the College who will render a decision within 30 days. If the decision of the Dean of the College is unacceptable, the student may, within seven (7), days appeal to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, who will render a final decision within fifteen (15) days.

58 Dr. Frank Schiraldi, Director of The Center for Academic Success advises student with her schedule. The Center for Academic Success (TCAS) Library (lower level) Room 35 (937) Dr. Frank Schiraldi, Dean Ms. Karen Franklin, Administrative Coordinator The Center for Academic Success (TCAS) offers a number of programs and services to support student academic success. These services are available to all students, but are especially designed to help new and continuing students who may be experiencing difficulty with particular courses or who may need additional help with developing their learning skills. The Center provides a comprehensive and integrative approach towards academic success for all students. TCAS is designed to help students make a smooth transition to the University and provides an array of support services to help them schedule and complete courses and graduate in the shortest time possible. The mission of TCAS is to provide programs and services persist in their academic pursuits, graduate, enter the professional workforce or go on to graduate or professional school. The Center for Academic Success is organized into four units designed to achieve this goal: OFFICE OF ACADEMIC ADVISING AND ASSISTANCE (OAAA) Library (lower level) Room 19 (937) Mrs. LaKeysha Catron, Director Ms. Heather Scott, Administrative Assistant Dr. Angela Edwards, Academic Advisor, College of Education Ms. Shlisa Hayden, Academic Advisor, College of Arts and Sciences, Mathematics, Science Mr. Tim McKinney, Academic Advisor, College of Arts and Sciences, Humanities and Fine Arts Mr. Van Rountree, Academic Advisor, College of Arts and Sciences, Social and Behavioral Sciences Ms. Chavin Rucker, Academic Advisor, College of Business and Industry 58

59 The Office of Academic Advising and Assistance serves to support students in the selection of majors, scheduling courses and supporting continuing students who find themselves academically at-risk (on probation or re-admitted to the university following a period of academic suspension). Academic advising is an integral component of the educational process at CSU. All students are provided with a faculty advisor in the college in which their major resides. If a student becomes academically at-risk, they are also provided with an Academic Advisor in the Center for Academic Success. The primary responsibility of Academic Advisors is to assist academically at-risk students achieve good academic standing and to complete their programs successfully. The Office of Academic Advising and Assistance also works with students to declare and/or change majors. Finally, with the other units in the TCAS the Office of Academic Advising offers individualized assistance to students in finding solutions to academic problems they may encounter at the University. OFFICE OF FACULTY DEVELOPMENT (OFD) Library (lower level) Room 13 (937) Dr. Karen Townsend, Director Ms. Karen Franklin Administrative Assistant The Office of Faculty Development, assisted by a Steering Committee for Faculty Development, provides a variety of support programs and services for faculty to help students learn successfully and complete their baccalaureate programs. These programs and services are designed to encourage and support faculty to discover and use the most effective instructional strategies and techniques in response to the learning needs of all students. In addition to the various program opportunities scheduled by the Office of Faculty Development, limited financial support for faculty professional travel designed to support the goals of effective instruction is available. LEARNING SKILLS CENTER (LSC) Library (lower level) Room 18 (937) Ms. Susan Lohnes, Coordinator and Reading Specialist Ms. Heather Scott, Administrative Assistant Mr. Emmanuel Clayton, Mathematics Specialist Ms. Yvette Williams, Writing Specialist The Learning Skills Center provides a variety of programs and services for all students, but has major responsibility for supporting the academic success of new incoming freshmen. These programs and services include learning skill development and tutorial programs to help students successfully complete their current courses The services provided by the LSC are scheduled individually or in formal Learning Skills Experience (LSE 1000) class settings in which students are enrolled. Students may be referred to the LSC by an advisor, an instructor or they may schedule their own participation. The staff also provides advising services to new freshmen who may need additional academic support. STUDENT SUPPORT SERVICES (SSS) Library (lower level) Room 12 Phone (937) Dr. Frank Schiraldi, Interim Director Ms. Lynn Crockett, Administrative Assistant Ms. Karen Johnson Jordan, Licensed Counselor and Academic Advisor Ms. Erma Yow, Academic Advisor Mr. Randy Vance, Tutoring Supervisor and Computer Lab Specialist The Student Support Services program provides a variety of academic, tutorial and social development services to students who meet the required qualifications and enroll in the program. Eligibility requires that students be the first in their families to attend college, from low-income households, have learning disabilities, and/or have English as a second language. Modest financial assistance is also available to students who are enrolled in the program and also meet the grant aid criteria. The staff also provides advising services to student members who may need additional academic support. 59

60 CENTER FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS PROGRAMS In addition to the programs and services provided through the four units described above, TCAS has responsibility for several formal programs and initiatives provided cooperatively with other entities in the university. These include: FIRST YEAR SEMINAR FYS 1101 is required for all first-year students and transferring students with less than 30 credit hours. The primary goal of this course is to help first-year students make a successful transition to university life. Topics include CSU s history and traditions, study skills, values, time management, teamwork, and civic engagement. The course is organized to provide for traditional classroom settings, a number of general sessions focusing on issues of universal importance and active participation in the university s convocation program. This course also provides new students with the opportunity to learn how to navigate through the complexities of the university system and learn about the services available to support their academic success. LEARNING COMMUNITIES The CSU Learning Communities Program is on the cutting edge of institutional advancement. Universities around the country are using Learning Communities to help their students succeed, to ensure that students return the following year, and to strengthen the education the university offers. Participants in the program are enrolled in at least two courses together while working for their own success and the success of the group. Faculty teaching Learning Community courses work together to plan common assignments and coordinate learning, thus making connections between courses and assignments. The goal of the CSU Learning Communities Program is to establish a sense of cohesiveness, self-responsibility, and high standards for participating students and faculty. SUMMER EARLY START PROGRAM The Summer Early Start Program is an initiative designed to help those new first-year college students, conditionally admitted to the university, achieve the standards for unconditional admission. Conditionally admitted students are those who do not meet all the University s formal academic requirements for admission, but whom the University believes can be successful academically with additional support and monitoring prior to formal admission to the university. Conditionally admitted students are required to successfully complete this program and demonstrate that they have developed and/or improved the skills necessary for a successful transition from high school to college-level academic work. The program is conducted over a five-week period in the summer and provides students with many opportunities to improve their skills in writing, mathematics, speaking, reading and citizenship. Program expenses for instruction, room and board are covered by the university at no cost to students and their families. At the end of the Summer Early Start Program, successful students are formally admitted to the university and enrolled in classes for the fall semester. The Learning Skills Center operates the program, and, with the assistance of other TCAS units, provides for the instruction, assessment and progress documentation of students necessary to support them in their efforts to prepare for the successful completion of their first year at Central State University. TUTORING Tutoring is available, free of charge, to all students in the university, who are referred to TCAS by advisors, faculty or for students who decide for themselves that tutoring is required. Both professional and student tutors are available through TCAS to guide students through organized review, practice, study skills and test preparation. Specially tutoring programs are scheduled at the end of each academic term to help students prepare for final exams. The TCAS offers tutoring services every day at posted times and/or by appointment. 60

61 UNIVERSITY PROGRAMS AND SERVICES AMERICAN COLLEGE TESTING (ACT) (See ADMISSIONS, page 25) ASSESSMENT OF THE ACADEMIC PROGRAM Wesley Hall, Room 128 Mohammed Ali, Director of Office of Assessment and Institutional Research (937) The Office of Assessment, Research, and Institutional Effectiveness involves a variety of institutional constituencies and serves a coordinating function to provide meaningful and useful information to the academic program planning process. The office collects, examines, and interprets quantitative and qualitative data about student learning, teaching assessment, and institutional effectiveness, and provides that information to faculty and program directors to document and improve student learning on a continuous, ongoing basis. Such quantitative and qualitative data are the major vehicles that drive the curriculum and programs toward change and overall improvement of student learning, and verify that graduates of the University are nationally competitive. The office carries out the Comprehensive Assessment Model, whose key features include: 1. Assessment of pre-college characteristics, including placement testing; 2. Assessment of student learning within individual courses, including proficiency examinations; 3. Assessment of student development and growth; 4. Assessment of mid-level undergraduate student learning in the General Education Curriculum, including the proficiency examination in English; 5. Assessment of student learning in the major using such measures as senior comprehensive examinations, portfolios, senior design projects, internship experiences, student teaching experiences, and/or capstone courses; 6. Assessment of teaching effectiveness. PROFICIENCY EXAMINATIONS (CLEP) Proficiency examinations are given on a limited basis to students who demonstrate ability and prior knowledge in certain courses. These examinations are prepared by the course instructor or through the College Level Examination Proficiency (CLEP) Program. They are administered only upon presentation of a properly executed petition for proficiency examination approved by the academic advisor of the student, the Chair of the Department in which the course is offered, the Dean of the College in which the course is offered, and the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. The petition for CLEP must be obtained from and returned to the Office of Assessment, Research and Institutional Effectiveness, which will forward the test results to the Office of the Registrar where appropriate credits will be recorded. Proficiency through the CLEP is intended for introductory level courses, while proficiency in a major area course will be assessed by the course instructor. Credit for the tests will be granted only upon satisfactory completion of the examination with a grade of C or better. A student who has taken the course on a regular basis and failed it cannot satisfy the requirement for the course by taking a proficiency examination nor can a proficiency examination be used to repeat a course. Students should investigate the possibility of taking a proficiency examination thoroughly before assuming that it will be made available to them in order to help them satisfy their graduation requirements. ENGLISH PROFICIENCY REQUIREMENT FOR GRADUATION Proficiency in standard written English is a graduation requirement. All students must take the English Proficiency Exam, i.e., the writing of an argumentative essay from a choice of topics. The essay is administered by the Office of Assessment. Registration and test dates are posted in the University calendar. There is no fee. Successful completion of ENG 1102 (or equivalent) is a prerequisite; the student must also bring a picture ID to the exam. The advisor in the major will assist with early scheduling so that the student can meet this requirement before the senior year. A student not passing the exam has two options: (1) re-take and pass the exam, or (2) enroll in ENG 3000, Advanced Composition, a class in argumentative writing, and pass with a grade of C or above. (See the description of ENG 3000 in the listing of courses.) Any student in ENG 3000 who has not taken the proficiency exam will take it during that semester. 61

62 THE CENTER FOR ALLAYING HEALTH DISPARITIES THROUGH RESEARCH AND EDUCATION The Center for Allaying Health Disparities through Research and Education (CADRE) Project is a multidisciplinary effort to build a Central State University (CSU) research capacity that will ultimately contribute to the elimination of disparities between the health of the minority and majority populations in the United States. CSU, a public Historically Black College/University (HBCU) in Ohio will address the issue by increasing our capacity to conduct biomedical and behavioral research through the following: Developing a Human Exercise and Performance Laboratory; Building a first class Animal Facility; Developing a Geospatial Database Center for Minority Health Disparities; and Developing a Psychology Testing Laboratory We will also conduct three independent research projects: 1. Closing the Health Disparity Gap: Impact of Health Empowerment Technologies on Elderly African American Health Provider Relationships. 2. Isolation and Characterization of Snake Venom Toxins to Combat Prostate Cancer in African-Americans. 3. Cell & Extracellular Matrix Interactions in Development of Tissue Engineered Cartilage. Specific Aims of the CADRE Project are to increase the number of: - faculty conducting research - presentations made at national meetings - funded research projects - publications in peer reviewed journals - graduates from departments - students to enter graduate, professional or medical school - research courses - students completing classes Therefore, a critical goal of this project is to increase the number of CSU graduates who enter graduate and professional school in health related fields that will have an impact in the minority health arena. As an HBCU, CSU graduates have personal knowledge and experience of the disparities in health care. As a part of our capacity building plan, we will collaborate with the University of Cincinnati to improve our administrative abilities in order to better manage our anticipated increased research efforts. Finally, we intend on increasing the capacity of the entire university faculty to solicit external funds by training and encouraging them to write proposals and to enhance the credentials of the faculty, and the university, by encouraging them to publish articles in peer reviewed journals. CENTER FOR AFRICAN STUDIES (A National Resource Center) The Center for African Studies at CSU is one of 15 Centers of African Studies in the United States designated as National Resource Centers by the U.S. Department of Education in The overriding objective of the center is the nurturing of men and women with new knowledge of Africa in order to increase the number of African Americans among the group of Africanists who offer expertise to U.S. policy-making on Africa. In addition, the Center seeks to increase the prospects for greater minority participation in African affairs, including business, diplomacy, and media. This is achieved by building a broad base of competence in African Studies, one that will help students to secure positions in Foreign Service, international business, the media, think tanks, federal agencies, and other professional positions related to Africa. The disciplines of art, economics, foreign language, geography, history, English, philosophy, political science, sociology, health, physical education and recreation, and the International Center for Water Resources Management cooperate in offering an undergraduate interdisciplinary minor designed to equip students with a fundamental orientation in the field of African Studies, to provide basic methods of approach to the study, and to provide intelligent observation of African affairs. Students official transcripts will document their completion of the requirements for the undergraduate minor in African Studies. CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IN EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES The mission of Central State University s Center of Excellence in Emerging Technologies is to graduate a diverse workforce that is highly skilled and prepared for future jobs in emerging technologies in the Miami Valley and 62

63 throughout Ohio. The Center integrates CSU s core competencies in manufacturing engineering, environmental engineering, mathematics and computer sciences, natural sciences, and technology transfer and commercialization through the National Environmental Technology Incubator. The Center will offer expertise in the integration of renewable and alternative energy supporting manufacturing and environmental protection areas. HALLIE Q.

The Program provides enhanced educational opportunities to our superior students. Students are challenged and nurtured through the use of a rigorous curriculum and through mentoring relationships with leading faculty and scholars at the University. ADMISSION TO THE HONORS PROGRAM Participation in the Honors Program is voluntary. A student who does not enter the Honors Program as an incoming freshman, but whose academic work at CSU is outstanding, may be invited to join the Honors Program at the end of the freshman year. Students with a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.2 are invited to apply for participation in the program. To remain in the program, a student must maintain a minimum of 3.2 cumulative GPA annually. 63

64 HONORS PROGRAM CURRICULUM The Honors Program curriculum involves: 1. Honors Study Contracts: Honors students take specific General Education courses as well as other courses in the major, within a more demanding framework. They receive credit by contracting for honors assignments and projects over and above the regular course requirements (Requirement: minimum of 20 credit hours of approved courses). 2. In addition, the honors curriculum includes two colloquium courses. A colloquium course (HON 3300) is conceived as a seminar-type course that is interdisciplinary in nature (Requirement: 4 credit hours). 3. Honors students are also required to write an honors thesis or complete an honors project within the major (HON 4400), starting no later than the beginning of the junior year to allow time to satisfactorily conduct meaningful research by the Spring Semester of the senior year (Requirement: 3 credit hours). Enhanced educational opportunities for honors students embrace more than academic work. The program sponsors activities that offer students unique extracurricular opportunities in which to participate and grow: attending artistic performances and lectures; presenting papers at conferences; participating in workshops that bring together students, faculty and/or community leaders; discussing issues with distinguished visitors in formal or informal gatherings; and being involved in community service programs through volunteerism. The Honors program allows students to get the most from their college years in terms of time, money, and learning, by providing them with a more challenging environment. HONORS DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The designation Honors Diploma is indicated on the diploma and transcripts of students who achieve an overall minimum of 3.2 GPA in university course work, and complete all Honors Program requirements. TAKING A REGULAR COURSE FOR HONORS CREDIT A student may elect to take a General Education course or any other course for honors credit with the instructor s consent. Taking a course for honors credit essentially means the student follows an expanded version of the syllabus for a regular course. Typically, the work will involve additional meetings with instructors beyond regular class hours, to be arranged between the instructor and student. For example, these sessions might include more discussion of theoretical issues related to the course. The instructor will be free to use any pedagogical approach. The idea, however, is to make the course more challenging for the student. Qualitatively and quantitatively, the honors work to be required from honors students is approximately 15 percent more than what applies for regular course work. The honors student thus receives honors credit by contracting for assignments or projects over and above normal course requirements. It is the responsibility of the students to indicate their intention to take a regular course for honors credit at the beginning of a given semester, and thereafter enter into a formal agreement with the instructor, by completing and signing an honors study contract. The instructor will indicate in the contract the different course work that the student will have to complete in order to earn honors credit for the standard course. The student has the option of dropping honors credit for the course and reverting to the regular course. The student must earn a grade of B or better for honors credit. A grade below B will earn the student only the standard course credit.

Programs offered are accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. CSU-Dayton extends the University s instructional programs beyond the main campus to an increasing adult population seeking postsecondary education in the region. Our academic programs are specifically designed for the busy lives of adults who seek to complete a degree begun elsewhere, or who select Central State University as their institution of choice. Our evening and Saturday class schedules allow students to complete general education requirements and most course requirements for a degree from the Business Administration Department in the College of Business and Industry, Early Childhood Education Program in the College of Education, or the Criminal Justice Program in the College of Arts and Sciences. Faculty members from the main campus are joined by local professionals who serve as adjunct faculty members to deliver quality, specialized instruction. Traditionally, CSU-Dayton offers small classes which allow for personal attention and the opportunity to pace learning at the student s comfort level. Technology has increased the availability and opportunity for engaging in scholarly conversation. Faculty members correspond with students by e- mail and chat rooms are set up for both faculty-student and student-student discussion. A state-of-the art computer lab provides internet access to the Hallie Q. Brown Memorial Library on the main campus and for exploration and research.

68 College of Arts and Sciences Wesley Hall Room 125 Lovette Chinwah-Adegbola, Ph.D., Dean Professor of Journalism & Mass Communication (937) Ms. Hope Kelley, Administrative Assistant Ms. Sheena Cherry, Secretary Mr. Obi Iwuanyanwu, Director, Writing Center The College offers 21 programs in the fine and performing arts, humanities, social and behavioral sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics and computer science. In addition, by offering courses to support the General Education program, the College provides students with a broad foundation in the liberal arts. The guiding principle of General Education is that each person who graduates from college should possess the ability to think carefully and analytically, to communicate information and ideas effectively, to know history and its role in shaping the present, to use technology to enhance learning, and to understand human life more deeply and productively through acquaintance with the work of writers, thinkers, and pioneers in the arts, humanities, natural sciences, and social sciences. The College comprises six departments - Fine and Performing Arts, Humanities, Mathematics and Computer Science, Military Science, Natural Sciences, and Social and Behavioral Sciences. The College also houses an Honors Program, federal and state-funded research programs, the Center for African Studies, and the Cosby Mass Communication Center. Undergraduate degree offerings include Communications, English, Fine and Performing Arts, History and Music. Through the disciplines of Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Mathematics, Political Science, Psychology, Social Work and Sociology, the College offers baccalaureate degree programs that prepare students for careers in the pure and applied sciences. The programs in International Languages, Gerontology, African Studies, Philosophy and Physics serve to support major and minor degree offerings, and the University General Education Requirements. 68

69 ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Students are admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences by declaring a major in, or an intention to apply to one of the 21 programs in the Arts and Sciences. STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY Students in the College of Arts and Sciences are required to confer with an assigned faculty advisor within their major, or their Center for Academic Success professional advisor on a regular basis. Beyond this advisement, students are personally responsible not only for selecting their academic programs, but also for adhering to all published regulations and requirements of the University. Students are expected to seek regular academic advisement and ultimately are individually responsible for completing all degree requirements. During the semester immediately prior to the year in which a student expects to graduate, students must confer both with their advisor and the chair of the major department for a final degree checkout and preparation of an application for graduation. Completed graduation applications are due in the College Dean s office prior to the end of the first semester of the year in which a student expects to graduate. TRANSFER OF CREDITS Students who transfer from other colleges of the University and from other accredited colleges and universities must meet with the department chairperson to review and determine the acceptability of transfer credits to the intended degree program. The chairperson may decline to accept the transfer credit for any course which does not meet an approved course description or for which the grade is lower than a C or which does not meet the University General Education Requirements. Students who have completed the Transfer Module (see pages 53-57) at another school will automatically receive credit for Central State s Transfer Module. Such students will, however, be required to meet some additional General Education Requirements not included in the Transfer Module. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS The General Education Program, a common curriculum of semester hours, is central to the University s mission of providing students with a liberal arts background. The remaining hours that must be taken to earn a minimum of 124 semester hours come from the departmental major requirements and student s choice of free electives. However, majors in the College are urged to choose, with an advisor, courses that provide the student with a second field of interest or a strong minor concentration. Minimum graduation requirements include: completion of at least 124 semester hours with a grade point average of Some departments or programs may require additional hours and a higher grade point average, completion of at least 30 semester hours in a major field. Some departments may require additional hours, completion of the University General Education Requirements. See complete description on pages of this catalog, and successful completion of the University s English Proficiency Requirement. See complete description on page 61 of this Catalog. PRE-LAW OPTIONS Students interested in law school may take the pre-law option in English. This option is designed for students who wish to pursue any career related to law. Aside from a career as an attorney-at-law, such careers might include public policy, government leadership, criminal justice, education, and related fields. NOTE: The English pre-law option is described under the Department of Humanities. PREPARATION FOR HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONS Many students enter college with the intent to pursue a career in a health care field, such as dentistry, medicine, nursing, optometry, pharmacy, or veterinary medicine. All of these careers are the result of graduate programs, not specific undergraduate majors. Since these are popular career paths, admission to the professional schools are very competitive. In order to have a good chance of getting into a professional school, a student will need to complete all prerequisite courses in a timely fashion and with good grades. The average student admitted to a medical school has an undergraduate GPA of about 3.5 and a score of 810 in each part 69

70 of the MCAT exam. In addition, many schools will be looking for evidence of commitment to a health care career through volunteer work in hospitals, nursing homes, or animal shelters. Other programs may place emphasis on extracurricular activities. Medical school admission prerequisites are fairly uniform. Most schools specify one year of each of the following topics (The corresponding CSU courses are listed in parentheses): 1. Biology (BIO 1801, 1802) 2. English (ENG 1101, 1102) 3. General Chemistry (CHM 1201, 1202) 4. Organic Chemistry (CHM 2401, 2402) 5. Mathematics (MTH 2501, 2502, or 2503) 6. Physics (PHY 2211, 2212, 2213, 2214) Some schools also ask for courses in quantitative analysis, biochemistry, and/or genetics. Courses in psychology are also useful but not usually specifically required. Since most or all of these courses would be part of a biology or chemistry major, many students gain admission to medical schools through those two majors; however, some medical schools have a policy favoring other majors in order to get more diversity in their student body. Requirements for dental, optometry, pharmacy, or veterinary schools are similar to those for medical schools. Students are urged to consult the websites of any schools of interest to see what those schools request. Medical schools also require that applicants take the MCAT exam. (Similar exams are used by dental, optometry, pharmacy and veterinary schools.) A student who plans to enter medical school in the fall immediately after graduation would normally take the MCAT in April of the junior year. Since the MCAT is based on the prerequisite courses listed above, a student should try to complete as many as possible before that time. The specific sequence of courses a student should take will depend on the student s choice of major and the results of placement exams. The student should work closely with his or her major advisor on scheduling, but regardless of major, a student who wishes to go to medical school needs to complete the admission prerequisite courses by the end of the junior year. Some of these courses need to be done in sequence, so planning is needed. The sequence below is suggested. In addition to the courses listed, a student would need to take courses to meet the General Education and major requirements. Freshman year: ENG 1101, 1102; BIO 1801, 1802; CHM 1201, 1202; MTH 2501, 2502 or 2503 (shift back if placement indicates) Sophomore year: ENG 1102; CHM 2401, 2402; PHY 2211, 2212, 2213, 2214 (move to junior year if math is not completed) Junior year: CHM 4300; PSY 1200, 2220 (recommended General Education courses) For more information about preparing for the healthcare professions at Central State University contact: Dr. Cadance Lowell Dr. Gary Pierson clowell@centralstate.edu gpierson@centralstate.edu (937) (937) Each of the health care professions has an association of its professional schools. These associations have websites that will also provide useful information.

Smith Associate Professors: Dr. Ronald Claxton, Mr. Abner Cope, Dr. Jennifer Cruz, Mr. Dwayne M. Daniel, Dr. William M. Denza, Dr. Mervyn R. Joseph, Dr. Lennard V. Moses Assistant Professors: Ms. Lee Hoffman, Mr. Ramon Key, Mr. Kenneth Pointer Instructors: Mr. Collin Richardson The Department of Fine and Performing Arts offers majors in the disciplines of art and music. In addition to its primary role of providing professional and pre-professional training to its majors and minors, the department serves as a major cultural center and resource for the University and offers a wide range of concerts, performances, exhibitions, lectures and courses which promote the aesthetic development of the community. Central State University is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Music. The department offers programs leading to the following degrees: the Bachelor of Arts in Graphic Design, the Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art, the Bachelor of Science in Art Education, the Bachelor of Music in Music Education, the Bachelor of Music in Performance, and the Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies. All majors and minors in the department are expected to participate in co-curricular organizations and/or activities of respective programs (e.g., art exhibits, concerts, student organizations, professional organizations, etc.). All majors in the department must fulfill the General Education Requirements as stated in the degree requirements below (which vary depending upon the degree) and the specific requirements of the college in which the student is enrolled (College of Arts and Sciences or College of Education). Students enrolled in teacher education degree programs begin as majors in the College of Arts and Sciences and then must apply to be admitted to the College of Education. All majors are required to pass the University writing proficiency examination and the department comprehensive examinations in the respective disciplines. Students are responsible for knowing and adhering to published schedules for the administration of the above tests and for applying for graduation. ART The art programs are designed to produce graduates who are thoughtful, articulate, and literate artist scholars, who possess a broad liberal arts background and the skills necessary to compete in a technologically sophisticated world. The curriculum is constructed to meet the individual needs of students (who may have unique and diverse career aspirations) and is designed to enable each student to acquire a broad range of aesthetic experiences (both in and out of the classroom). Small class sizes allow the necessary one-to-one contact with instructors to develop creative thoughts into strong visual statements. Central State University is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Art and Design. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ART MAJORS All art majors must meet the following requirements: Upon entering the department, each major is required to meet with an art faculty advisor to determine a course of study. Students majoring in art are required to exhibit selected works in student exhibitions organized by the department. The department reserves the right to retain, for its student collection, one example of each student s work done in any scheduled class. Students must participate in a senior art exhibition as partial fulfillment of department requirements. The student enrolled in the Bachelor of Arts in any Arts degree program is required to take the core program first. After students have completed the core program they begin, usually in their third year, concentrated work in a major area of study. A student may elect to focus in one of three areas of study: Graphic Design, Painting or Drawing, and Art Education. 71

75 MUSIC The music programs are designed to produce graduates who are thoughtful, articulate, and literate artistscholars, who possess a broad liberal arts background and the skills necessary to compete in a technologically sophisticated world. Students master the language of music (and a number of its diverse dialects), demonstrate a detailed knowledge of the history of music, the arts, and civilization from a world (multicultural) perspective, and critically evaluate music and the arts using both personal and established criteria. Music graduates educate, perform, improvise, compose and publish. Their teaching and their original artistic expressions are informed by knowledge of musical syntax, vocabulary, form, history, style, and aesthetics.

DEPARTMENT OF HUMANITIES INTERNSHIPS GUIDELINES FOR JOURNALISM & MASS COMMUNICATION, ENGLISH AND HISTORY The following guidelines for departmental internships outline the responsibilities of the student, the supervisor, and the participating faculty members. Please consult the Director of the Communication Programs for Communication Internship Guidelines. 1. You must achieve junior classification to be eligible for an internship. 2. You should have a minimum 3.0 average in the major, and the permission of an instructor in the major, to obtain an internship. 3. When preparing for an internship, you must write a proposal (three typewritten pages) which explains the specific internship desired, your experience and course work in the field, and how you want your internship to contribute to your career goals. This proposal is due to the department chair no later than the first week of class during the semester in which you begin the internship. 4. Normally you will receive academic credit for your internship (3, 4 or 5 hours) rather than payment. An employer choosing to pay a student should do so at the prevailing minimum wage rate. 5. You may do your internship during a regular academic semester, during summer school, or during winter break. It is your responsibility to make sure that you are properly registered to receive the academic credit. Up to two internships may be completed for academic credit. Retroactive credit cannot be given. 6. Each week you must participate in three to four hours of internship experience for each hour of academic credit received (based on a 17-week semester). 7. When applicable, you should develop a portfolio during the internship to be used later in interviews and as a reference source of your abilities. 8. Your supervisor must complete the Internship Evaluation Form, evaluating your performance, and return it to the department chair by the last day of class during the internship semester. 9. At the end of the internship, you must write an exit essay (three typewritten pages), in which you evaluate the experience. The essay should cover such issues as what you learned, whether it matched your expectations, whether and how it has promoted your career goals, and whether your ideas about your profession has changed as a result of the internship. The exit essay is due to the department chair by the last day of class. 10. The internship grade will be based on the supervisor s evaluation, the proposal, and the exit essay. For cases in which either the proposal or the exit essay has not been submitted to the department chair, the final grade will be adjusted accordingly. 11. Off-campus internships are limited and will be offered on a competitive basis to students based on GPA, commitment to a strong professional work ethic, ability to get along with others, dependability, and ability to project a positive image of the University. On-campus internships also may be limited and will be offered on a first-come basis, with preference given to graduating seniors. 80

90 Central State University s Marauder Battalion is the first ever Historically Black College/University (HBCU) Military Science Department. ROTC has been in Wilberforce, Ohio, since Charles Young was the third Black United States Military Academy graduate, the highest ranking Black Officer during WWI, and the second Professor of Military Science and Tactics at Wilberforce University (1894). Department of Military Science Carl E. Jenkins Technology Education Bldg. Room 142 LTC Michael Thomas, Professor of Military Science (937) /6382 Faculty - Professor: LTC Michael Thomas Instructors: CPT Rashad Fulcher, MSG Michael Greer, SFC Rahshaan Greene The Department of Military Science is a cooperative venture between the United States Army and Central State University, Cedarville University, Urban University, Wilberforce University, and Wittenberg University. The program provides a Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program to full-time students on an optional basis. Satisfactory completion of the program may lead to a minor in Military Science, and a commission as an officer in the United States Army. The program provides students an opportunity to practice leadership skills necessary in society. The emphasis of the program is on leadership development. Students are challenged to apply accepted leadership theory to practical situations. A theoretical basis of knowledge is developed through attendance in Military Science classes and courses offered in colleges throughout the University. Army ROTC is a college elective students can try out for up to two years with no obligation. Unlike traditional college programs, Army ROTC gives you a wide range of experiences while you work toward a degree. You will combine classroom time with hands-on experience, learning skills that are sure to give you an edge over your peers when it comes time to look for a job. ROTC provides students with opportunities to attend demanding active military courses such as: Special Forces Assessment and Selection Courses, Basic Paratrooper Course, Air Assault School, Combat Diver Qualification Course, Combat Survival Training, and Mountain Warfare Training. By offering such demanding training, ROTC provides students with the ability to test the limits of their mental and physical stamina. Whether you are planning a career in the Army or the corporate world, Army ROTC is a smart elective course to take. As part of Army ROTC, you will be in the company of a diverse group of individuals with broad interests those who were presidents of their student governments, captains of their varsity sports teams, club presidents, or members of the National Honor Society. Your studies will include Leadership Development, Military Skills, and Adventure Training. First and foremost, an Army officer is a leader. The officer plans the work of the organization, assigns tasks to others and sees that the work is accomplished to the highest standard. In that regard, an Army officer is similar to a manager in a corporation. But that is where any comparison to the corporate world ends. Even the most junior officer routinely has 40 or more soldiers working directly under his or her control. In the 90

91 corporate world it could take decades for an individual to achieve that level of responsibility. Officers do not just issue orders and disappear into the background. They lead by example. An officer must be willing to personally undertake any task that is assigned to a soldier. The level of integrity and personal conduct required of an officer is quite high with very good reasons. Officers daily make decisions that involve millions of dollars of resources. Their judgment and skill can mean the difference between life and death for the soldiers they command. Over the years, three words have become the hallmark of what it is to be an Army Officer. Those three words are Duty, Honor and Country. No matter what their specific duties are, or where they serve, these three words embody what it is to be an Army officer. We are a people-oriented organization. Consequently, leadership and management skills are essential in our training program. ROTC provides you the opportunity to become a college-educated leader and manager. You will be employed when you graduate employed in an organization that offers competitive medical, dental, housing and retirement benefits. Let s say you decide to move on after a few years and pursue another profession. OK. When you join your friends in the civilian world you will have no problem grasping what they are doing and you will have far greater depth and breadth of experience. They will admire, even envy your exposure, work and travel experience. Trust us, whatever you decide, the experience you will gain will give you the confidence you need to be a success in college and beyond. You will have the edge because employers respect officership Believe it! TO HELP YOU FINANCE YOUR COLLEGE YEARS, ARMY ROTC awards scholarships. Army ROTC scholarships pay tuition and required fees, and can be worth as much as $120,000 or more. They are awarded on merit like academic achievements, extracurricular activities, and personal interviews. Scholarship winners receive a stipend ($300 freshman, $350 sophomore, $450 junior, $500 senior) for each academic month plus an allowance for books and other educational items. If you are a non-scholarship student, you can still receive the stipend as a contracted cadet during your last two years. If you are selected to receive a scholarship, you will have a commitment to the Army after completing the program. You can fulfill it by either serving part time in the Army National Guard or Army Reserve, or compete for full time service on active duty. The U.S. Army is one of the most culturally diverse organizations in the nation, and Army ROTC is committed to drawing a diverse group of individuals with a broad range of interests. As part of this commitment, Army ROTC offers a limited number of scholarships specifically to those individuals who desire to attend a Historically Black College/University (HBCU). The term Basic Course refers to first and second year courses, MIL 1511, 1512, 2511, and 2512, which are designed for beginning students who want to qualify for entry into the Advanced Courses and for those students who may want to try Military Science without obligation. Gain insight into Advance Course in order to make an informed decision. A number of popular or challenging extracurricular activities are associated with these courses. A student can also qualify for entry into the Advanced Course by completing the summer Leadership Training Course, located at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Prior Service, see PMS for placement credit. A minor in Military Science is offered by completing 18 hours of course work as follows: MIL 3511, 3512, 4511, hours BUS 1500, COM 3310 or COM hours Total Hours Required hours The Professor of Military Science may, in extreme cases, make exceptions to the ROTC Course requirements and Professional Military Education requirements, in order to award a Military Science minor. 91

96 EXCITING DAY AT THE SBS STUDENT SYMPOSIUM Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences Charles H. Wesley Hall Room 219 Dr. Lawrence E. Dalzine, Ph.D., Acting Chair (937) Interim Director of Social Work: Patricia Johnson-Dalzine, Ph.D., LSW Professors: Dr. Patricia Johnson-Dalzine, Dr. Ebere C. Onwudiwe; Associate Professors: Dr. Lawrence E. Dalzine, Dr. Denise Huggins, Dr. Rose M. Morgan-Woody, Dr. Edison Perdomo, Dr. W. Lynn Rigsbee II, Dr. Greta Winbush; Assistant Professors: Dr. Aherene A. Dungey The Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences offers major concentrations in the disciplines of criminal justice, political science, psychology, social work, and sociology, and minor concentrations in political science, psychology, sociology, gerontology and criminal justice. In addition to the offerings for students whose major or minor interest is in the social sciences, the department provides general education courses and service to other departments (e.g., communications, secondary education, health and recreation). The department offers programs leading to the following degrees: Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice, in Political Science, in Political Science (Public Administration), in Psychology, Social Work, or in Sociology; Bachelor of Science in Psychology, in Social Work, or in Sociology. Minors in the areas of criminal justice and gerontology are available to students from any major in any University department. All majors in the department must fulfill the stipulated General Education Requirements and the specific requirements of the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as any special requirements for the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degrees. All majors are required to pass the University writing proficiency examination and the department comprehensive examination in their respective disciplines. Students are responsible for knowing and adhering to published schedules for the administration of the above tests and for application for graduation. CRIMINAL JUSTICE The Criminal Justice program provides an overview of the criminal justice system, the causes of crime and issues relating to social control. The major is structured around a core of criminal justice courses that include topics in law enforcement, the judicial process and correctional system. The course of study consists of a general overview of the components of the criminal justice system with the overall goal of exposing students to a wide variety of academic disciplines: business, political science, psychology, social work and sociology. Within the major, students may choose to emphasize one of three areas. The law enforcement emphasis is designed primarily for students who wish to become local, state or federal law enforcement officers (e.g., city police officers, state highway patrol officers or Federal Bureau of Investigation agents). The judicial emphasis is for those students who wish to continue their education in law school or other areas of this branch of the 96

97 criminal justice system (e.g., victim advocate, pretrial investigator, etc). Finally, the corrections emphasis is best suited for students who wish to work in a correctional setting for juveniles or adults (e.g., correctional caseworker, correctional officer, drug counselor, parole officer or probation officer). POLITICAL SCIENCE The Political Science program offers a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science (Public Administration). The discipline offers a broad range of courses that permit specialization in American government and politics, international politics and comparative politics, or public administration. Individual programs combining the required 33 credit hours of political science courses with related courses from other disciplines allow students to prepare for different careers. The BA in Political Science is a traditional preparation for law school. The option in Public Administration combines general knowledge, administrative concepts, and skills courses in a curriculum designed to prepare students for careers in public agencies. The political science faculty is committed to the development of a sound liberal arts foundation and appropriate pre-professional skills for all majors. Courses are designed to further understanding of the institutions and processes of government and the behavior of decision-makers, to promote awareness of the perennial questions of political inquiry and the concepts useful in responding to them; and to develop analytical skills. As a discipline, Political Science is divided into areas of study based on subject matter. At CSU, political science courses are placed in the following groupings: American National Government and Political Theory (PSC 1100, 2223, 3304, 3351, 3353, 3361, 3362, 3365, 3381); Public Administration (PSC 1120, 3310, 3390, 4403, 4493); and Comparative Politics and International Relations (PSC 2202, 2205, 2405, 3311, 3371). Students are to use these groupings to select their area of concentration and sub-areas of study. PSYCHOLOGY The program for majors in psychology is designed to provide students with a broad knowledge of the field of psychology. In addition to developing professional skills, the program prepares students for graduate study in psychology and other academic disciplines. Courses are offered for both majors and non-majors. Extracurricular opportunities for students allow examination of a wide range of views on issues related to the field of psychology. The faculty possesses extensive professional expertise in psychology, is actively involved in research, and pursues working relationships with other professional institutions. Courses within the program have been designed to prepare students for graduate school or for employment in the fields of mental health and social service, criminal justice, education and related areas, and industry. SOCIAL WORK The primary objective of the social work curriculum is to prepare students for entry-level professional practice. Students are provided opportunities for the study and development of generalist knowledge of social work, skills, values, and ethics required of professional social workers. The content courses, along with field practicum, are designed to provide students with a broad and comprehensive theoretical knowledge base integrated with practical experience. Graduates of the program may seek beginning level social work employment or pursue graduate study. Students who plan to major in social work may take the introductory courses and are considered pre-social work students until they are formally accepted into the program. Transfer students must meet with a social work adviser to determine acceptable transfer courses for the social work major. The major in social work consists of 49 credit hours. Students apply for admission to the program after completing SWK 1100 and SWK 2200 with a grade of C or above. To be accepted into the program, students must have a cumulative grade point average of To continue in the Social Work Program, students must maintain a cumulative grade point average of 2.25 in the core social work courses. Students must have a cumulative grade point average of 2.25 or better to graduate with a degree in social work. Students who fail to earn a C or better in all social work courses must repeat these courses. Students must earn a grade of C or better in SWK 4201 and SWK 4202 to be eligible for enrollment in SWK The Social Work practicum consists of one semester and is designed to provide students with appropriate practice experiences to ensure their professional development. The social work faculty will determine students readiness for the field practicum course. Students must complete a formal application to the 97

98 program at the end of their sophomore year and after the completion of the two required introductory courses in social work. Students are also expected to have completed the required courses in English and mathematics. Applications for the Social Work Program are located in room 311, Wesley Hall. The applications are reviewed by the social work faculty and students may also be interviewed prior to final decisions. Course offerings and departmental policies regarding requirements for majors are subject to continuous review and may be changed. SOCIOLOGY AND GERONTOLOGY The area offers a Bachelor of Arts or a Bachelor of Science in Sociology and minors in Sociology and Gerontology. The courses are diverse and represent a broad range of practical and theoretical issues in the discipline. Opportunities exist for students to engage in research under the supervision of faculty members. Faculty members work with students on an individual basis, providing them with counseling, research suggestions and other assistance. They are determined to develop and maintain an academically nurturing relationship with each student in the program. Employment opportunities are available to students with a major in Sociology and a minor in Criminal Justice or Gerontology. Courses have been designed to allow students to acquire skills for careers in the criminal justice system or in agencies working with youth, the elderly, and families. INTERNSHIP Internships provide opportunities for students to obtain practical training off campus. Students should work out details for obtaining placement with their academic advisor. Internships will be recommended only for students who have achieved at least junior status and have an overall grade point average of at least 2.5. The maximum number of credit hours a student may earn for an internship are 8, during two separate semesters. However, for Sociology students, no more than 4 credit hours may be used to fulfill the requirement for the major. For each credit hour earned, the student is expected to spend approximately 3 hours per week on the internship site. Internships are generally limited and will be offered on a competitive basis. Criteria such as student attitude, ability to work with others, classification, and the minimum GPA will be used to select the most qualified. Students should apply for an internship the semester prior to wanting to take this course.

118 Programs in Accounting and Economics 124 Smith Hall (937) Faculty Professor: Dr. Peter Iwomi; Assistant Professors: Ms. Julia Blockberger, Mr. Kenyal McGee, Mr. James Traylor Degrees are earned in: Accounting Economics ACCOUNTING The accounting curriculum prepares students for successful careers in business, government, and public accounting. The courses seek to prepare the students for direct entry into the accounting environment with minimal on-the-job training, as well as prepare for graduate studies. Computer- based instruction is an integral part of the curriculum. ECONOMICS Economics offers two degrees; a bachelor of science and a bachelor of arts. The primary difference is the Bachelor of Science degree requires more technical courses while the Bachelor of Arts degree requires 10 hours of a foreign language. MINOR Minor in Economics Besides General Education and College of Business requirements, the following courses are required for a minor in Economics (21 credit hours): ECO 2210, 2220, 3320, 3330, 3340, 3360, and A grade of C or better is required. Double Majors with Business Administration Given the many overlapping requirements in the degree programs in economics and business administration, it is quite feasible for a student to major in both at the same time by focusing the choice of elective courses in these areas. That is, economics courses can be presented as electives from the business perspective and business courses from the economics perspective. 118

121 Department of Manufacturing Engineering Dr. Augustus Morris, Jr., PE - Chair Carl Jenkins Hall - Room 111 (937) Faculty Professors: Dr. Mahmoud A. Abdallah, Dr. Abayomi J. Ajayi-Majebi, Dr. Morris Girgis; Associate Professors: Dr. Augustus Morris, Jr., Dr. Alessandro R. Rengan; Assistant Professors: Dr. Peter Dreher, Mr. John H. Sassen GENERAL INFORMATION The Department of Manufacturing Engineering, composed of the Manufacturing Engineering Program and the Industrial Technology Program, carries on the University s historic tradition of providing relevant technical education to under-served populations with diverse backgrounds and educational needs. To uphold this rich heritage, the Department offers two baccalaureate degree programs: the B.S. degree in Manufacturing Engineering and the B.S. degree in Industrial Technology. These two programs share faculty, staff and facilities. However, though both prepare students for technical careers in industry and business, they otherwise offer separate degrees with distinct curricula. The Department draws strong guidance and support from an active Industrial Advisory Committee comprised of engineers and executives from diverse manufacturing companies and technical organizations. This industrial support provides for program enhancement and ensures program relevance in preparing students for technical careers. In addition, the Department maintains a program of related research that engages students in practical applications of classroom theory and enhances their skills for generating new knowledge. Spacious laboratories with modern laboratory equipment, computer hardware and software are available to support the teaching and research activities of the Department. To provide special opportunities for students to develop technical leadership and teaming skills, the Department promotes active student chapters of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME) and the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE). Both engineering and technology majors must fulfill the University General Education requirements. During the Spring semester of the senior year, Manufacturing Engineering majors are also encouraged to take the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination, which is the initial step in attaining professional engineering licensure. All students must pass the University s English proficiency examination prior to graduation. 121

122 Each engineering or technology major receives academic advising by a member of the Manufacturing Engineering Department faculty. Nevertheless, students are responsible for knowing and complying with all published schedules and graduation requirements. MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING PROGRAM General Information Graduates of the Manufacturing Engineering program are in great demand by prestigious firms and government agencies. TRENDS IN MANUFACTURING Manufacturing is one of the major wealth producing sectors of the world economic structure with a direct and powerful impact on the quality of life of each individual. The field of manufacturing has undergone dramatic changes during the past decade. Diverse forces driving these changes include the following factors: rapid technological advances in areas such as computers, lasers, machine vision, robotics and automation; emerging new materials including polymers, composites and ceramics; an increasing global economy with intensified international trade competition; changing national defense and security priorities; changing labor management relationships; dwindling natural resources; increasing energy costs; and, heightened environmental concerns. These factors continue to produce new demands and exciting opportunities for manufacturing engineers. Graduates of the program have found diverse employment in manufacturing fields such as automotive, aerospace, electronics, defense, food processing, and consumer product manufacturing industries. Others have earned related graduate degrees at some of the nation s finest graduate engineering schools prior to assuming industry positions. MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING PROGRAM OBJECTIVES The Manufacturing Engineering Department at Central State University is dedicated to preparing students for manufacturing engineering careers in diverse manufacturing enterprises. The MFE objectives are to: 1. Develop MFE graduates with a thorough understanding of engineering principles. 2. Provide comprehensive preparation for careers in manufacturing. 3.

Instill in graduates the University s core values of honesty, hard work, caring and excellence. The Bachelor of Science degree program in Manufacturing Engineering has been designed to address these objectives. The curriculum follows guidelines established by the Society of Manufacturing Engineers (SME), an international organization with over 40,000 members in seventy countries. SME seeks to ensure that Manufacturing Engineering programs produce engineers prepared to address industry demands for increasingly sophisticated manufacturing technology, and ready to play an important role in planning, building and optimizing the factories of the future. Emphasis is, therefore, given to computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM), microprocessor control, manufacturing planning and control, quality assurance, and the processing and utilization of engineering materials. The program provides opportunities for hands-on experience in the application of the knowledge embodied in these disciplines. The BS degree program in Manufacturing Engineering is one of only a few programs in the nation which are dedicated to undergraduate manufacturing engineering education, and which are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET). The overarching goal of the program is to produce graduates who are well prepared to: Contribute to the engineering planning and management of a relatively large, modern manufacturing operation. Introduce modern manufacturing methods and design technologies into a small manufacturing operation or assist in the start-up of a new manufacturing enterprise. Maintain a process of life-long learning to retain technical competence, including earning graduate degrees in engineering or related business management or other professional studies and obtaining relevant professional certification. The overall Manufacturing Engineering curriculum consists of strong components of mathematics, basic sciences, engineering sciences, humanities and social sciences, together with the engineering major requirements which can be grouped into the following topic areas: Materials and Manufacturing Processes the behavior and properties of materials and materials processing. Process, Assembly, and Product Engineering the design of products and the equipment, tooling and environment necessary for their manufacture. 122

123 Manufacturing Competitiveness the creation of competitive advantage through manufacturing planning, strategy and control. Topics such as productivity, quality, cost, human resources, product safety and liability, social concerns, international issues, environmental impact, and product life cycle are included in this area. Manufacturing Systems Design the analysis, synthesis and control of manufacturing operations using statistical and calculus based methods. Simulation and Information Technology Simulation, modeling, control, architecture, and information systems are included in this area. Laboratory Experience Measuring manufacturing process variables in a manufacturing laboratory and making technical inferences about the process. Throughout the curriculum major emphasis is given to the engineering design function. The Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET) has published the following description for engineering design: Engineering design is the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet desired needs. It is a decision making process (often iterative), in which the basic sciences and mathematics and engineering sciences are applied to convert resources optimally to meet a stated objective. Among the fundamental elements of the design process are the establishment of objectives and criteria, synthesis, analysis, construction, testing and evaluation. The engineering design component of a curriculum must include most of the following features: development of student creativity, use of open ended problems, development and use of modern design theory and methodology, formulation of design problem statements and specifications, consideration of alternative solutions, feasibility considerations, production processes, concurrent engineering design, and detailed system descriptions. Further, it is essential to include a variety of realistic constraints, such as economic factors, safety, reliability, aesthetics, ethics and social impact. In the senior year, the design experience is culminated with a sequenced three-quarter capstone design project. Students work on individual or team design projects under close faculty supervision. A broad range of resources including machine tools, materials testing and processing equipment, electronic and measuring instrumentation, computers and control devices is available to prepare students for the real-world challenges of the engineering profession. Oral and written communication skills are emphasized in the senior design project. The broad educational experience outlined above is designed to integrate the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values acquired in a diverse set of courses to produce graduates with the following specific competencies: An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering; An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data; An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs subject to constraints; An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams; An ability to identify, formulates, and solves engineering problems; An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility; An ability to think, listen and communicate effectively; An understanding of the impact of engineering solutions in a global and societal context; A recognition of the need for, and ability to engage in life-long learning; A knowledge of contemporary issues; An ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice. DEGREE REQUIREMENTS A total of 141 semester hours are required for the BS degree in manufacturing engineering: GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS: (42-46 hours): Thirteen (13) of these credits apply also to the manufacturing engineering (MFE) program requirements; see University General Education Requirements. MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS: The majority of the MFE courses emphasize design, the process of devising a system, component, or process to meet some desired need.
