The University

Oklahoma State University wasfounded on December 25, 1890, asOklahoma Agricultural and MechanicalCollege, just twenty months after the LandRun of 1889. When the first students as-sembled for class on December 14, 1891,there were no buildings, no books, and nocurriculum.

In 1894, two and one-half years afterclasses began in local churches, 144students moved into the first academicbuilding, later known as Old Central, onthe southeast corner of campus. In 1896,Oklahoma A&M held its first commence-ment with six male graduates.

On July 1, 1957, Oklahoma A&M Col-lege became Oklahoma State University.Technical branches were established inOkmulgee in 1946 and in Oklahoma Cityin 1961. (In 1990 their names werechanged to OSU-Okmulgee and OSU-Oklahoma City.) In July of 1988, the Okla-homa College of Osteopathic Medicineand Surgery became the College of Os-teopathic Medicine of OSU.

OSU is located in Stillwater, a north-central Oklahoma community with apopulation of more than 36,000. Stillwateris approximately60 miles from the Tulsaand Oklahoma City metropolitan areasand is readily accessible from other majorpopulation centers by interstate highwayand air.

The University is coeducational andhas an enrollment of approximately26,000 students on its four campuses. It%offers bachelor's, master's and doctor'sdegrees in a large number of fields, aswell as the professional Doctor of Oste-opathy and Doctor of Veterinary Medicinedegrees. Specialist in Education degreesare also offered in selected fields.

Although OSU is a large, comprehen-sive university, its size does not minimizethe personal attention given to each stu-dent. The individual is more than just anumber at this university. OSU encour-ages all students, when they first enroll, toidentify the college in which they wish tomajor. Once the student has identified hisor her major department, he or she be-comes a very important individual to thefaculty and advisers of that department.Because the average number of studentsmajoring in any one department is lessthan 150, the student can count on per-sonal attention in a friendly environment.

The largeness of the University hasmany distinct advantages. It has 1.9 mil-lion volumes in the library, modern re-

search laboratories and equipment,excellent physical education, recreationand student union facilities, nationally-recognized residence halls programs,outstanding cultural events, and 36nationally-affiliated fraternities andsororities, that provide a stimulatingeducational and social environment.

The MissionOklahoma State University is a mod-

ern comprehensive land grant universitythat serves the state, national and inter-national communities by providing itsstudents with exceptional academicexperiences, by conducting scholarlyresearch and other creative activitiesthat advance fundamental knowledge,and by disseminating knowledge to thepeople of Oklahoma and throughout theworld.

Athletics Program MissionOklahoma State University is commit-

ted to providing regionally and nationallycompetitive athletics programs as anintegral part of the overall educationalmission of the University. Programssponsored shall be in compliance withthe highest recognized standards of theinstitution and the athletic governingbodies. Intercollegiate athletics willoperate in harmony with the University'sstated mission and be committed to theintellectual, cultural, physical and socialdevelopmentof the student-athletesasindividuals. Opportunities for student-athletes shall be provided without dis-crimination.

Student ProfileOSU has a diverse student body.

Students come not only from Oklahoma,but from across the nation and world. OfOSU's 25,900 students, approximately19,350 are on the Stillwater campus,(including 800 students at the UniversityCenter at Tulsa/Rogers University),2,300 at Okmulgee and 3,950 at Okla-homa City, and 350 students at the Col-lege of Osteopathic Medicine in Tulsa.Eighty percent of the undergraduateenrollment is from Oklahoma; 10 percentfrom other states; and 10 percent frommore than 90 foreign countries. Of theundergraduate population, 53 percent

are men and 47 percent are women.Minorities make up 14 percent of theundergraduate student body. The gradu-ation rate of full-time, degree-seekingundergraduate students is 50 percent.

The graduate student enrollment totals4,300. Of these students, approximately600 enroll through the University Centerat Tulsa. Sixty-six percent are from Okla-homa; 14 percent from other states; and20 percent from foreign countries. Of thegraduate population, 55 percent are menand 45 percent are women. Minoritiesmake up 13 percent of the graduatestudent body.

An annual report regarding genderequity in OSU's athletic programs isavailable upon request from the AthleticDepartment.

FacilitiesThe OSU campus is one of excep-

tional beauty, with modified Georgianstyle architecture in many of the build-ings. The main campus encompasses840 acres and 200 permanent buildings.These facilities include one of the largestlibraries in the entire Southwest, a largeStudent Union complete with hotel facili-ties, the Colvin Physical Education Cen-ter, the Bartlett Center for the Studio Arts,and the Seretean Center for the Perform-ing Arts.

Recently three state-of-the-art facilitieswere constructed that nicely comple-ment the University's campus design andoverall mission. Willard Hall was recentlyrededicated as the new home for theCollege of Education. In 1995, this 1939-vintage women's dormitory was con-verted for use by the College in a charm-ing blend of the traditional Georgianarchitecture that is complemented withstately redesign and furnishings. Willardwill continue to reflect the past and cre-ate a vision for the future for many yearsto come. In Fall 1996, the Universitydedicated the Oklahoma Food and Agri-cultural Products Research and Technol-ogy Center. This vital facility undergirdsthe essential mission of the College ofAgricultural Sciences and Natural Re-sources by allowing faculty and studentsthe opportunity to investigate the waysand means of adding value toOklahoma's raw foodstuffs. The NobleResearch Center is a major interdiscipli-nary research facility that enhances

8 The University

collaboration of basic research amongvarious departments throughout theUniversity.

In Fall 1997, the University opened its$31 million Advanced Technology Re-search Center within the College ofEngineering, Architecture and Technol-ogy. This multidisciplinarybuilding willfurther enhance the University's role ofbeing a front runner in basic engineeringand related research in a variety of fieldsthat are relevant to Oklahoma, the UnitedStates and the world.

OSU is emerging as a leader in net-work computing resources. Over the pastfour years, the University has applied thestudent technology fee in concert with$4.5 million in University resources tocreate a second-to-none networkingsystem on campus that includes manynew computer laboratories, high speedinter-laboratoryconnectivity, and a virtu-ally seamless interface to the explodingInternet community. It is OSU's belief thatthe "virtual laboratory" made possible bythe nearly boundless domain of theInternet will be the research vehicle forthe future researcher. During 1998, theUniversity plans to expend nearly a mil-lion dollars to increase its fiberopticconnectivity on campus.

The Lake Carl Blackwell area, locatedeight miles west of Stillwater, is alsoowned by OSU. The area includes ap-proximately 21,655 acres, including the3,000-acre Lake Carl Blackwell thatprovides the water supply for OSU. It isalso used for research activities, in addi-tion to being a popular regional recre-ational area.

Additional properties include 1,900acres in farm land and facilities in PayneCounty, as well as 2,900 acres and vari-ous structures devoted to research sta-tions around the state.

General EducationOklahoma State University is com-

mitted to producing graduates who havea depth of knowledge in their major fieldsof study and a breadth of knowledgeoutside their majors, the best graduatebeing one with a mastery of a specificsubject matter and a solid and diversifiedgeneral education. As a result of thiscommitment to breadth and generaleducation, the following philosophy ofgeneral education was adopted in 1978:

The role of General Education at Okla-homa State University is to assist thestudent in the pursuit of general knowl-edge and in the development of skillsand attitudes conducive to a lifetime ofenlightenment. It must stimulate intellec-tual curiosity, original thought and ex-pression, the capacity for critical analysis

and problem solving and the ; ability tomake conscious value judgments con-sistent with personal needs and thepublic interest. It must be a blend of thetimely and the timeless and assist thegraduate to live and function in a rapidlychanging, complex and cosmopolitanworld.

education system is to provide qualityacademic preparation for as many col-lege-boundstudents as possible. InOklahoma, each year more than 15,000high school students make the decisionto enter college.

Students with the ability to thinkclearly; to reason, to employ scientificmethods, to use language effectively,and to apply knowledge, are those whowill become the masters of their destinyin tomorrow's world. These studentsshould pursue an academically-orientedhigh school curriculum. Such a course ofstudy will help develop the basic aca-demic skills and knowledge needed forsuccess in college. These skills includereading, speaking and listening, math-ematics, writing, reasoning and studying.The basic high school subject areas inwhich these skills can be nurtured arethe arts, English, foreign languages,mathematics, natural sciences, andsocial studies.

Pre-engineering(Nonresidentof Okla-homa). Engineering is a competitiveprogram; therefore, enrollment prefer-ence is given to Oklahoma residents. Inaddition to the above requirements, anonresident of Oklahoma applying foradmission to pre-engineering must meetrequirements determined by the Collegeof Engineering. These requirements mayexceed those required for residents ofOklahoma. (See "Admission Require-ments" in the "College of Engineering,Architecture and Technology" section.)Transfer Probation.

which are equivalent to those estab-li shed for all nonresident applicants.Application Procedure. For purposes ofadmission, an international student isdefined as "a student who is, or will be, inthe United States on a non-immigrantstudent visa." This specifically refers tothe Student (F) and Exchange Visitor (J)visas. All international students are con-sidered nonresident students. The Uni-versity will process the InternationalStudent Application and Financial Guar-antee form for undergraduate admission(freshman and transfer) only after all thefollowing items have been submitted:1. Application for Admission and a fee of

U.S. $25.00 made payable to OSU.2. One official or certified true copy of

4. Documented evidence of financialsupport.

FreshmanAdmission(InternationalStudents). For the purpose of determin-ing admission, a freshman student is onewho has earned fewer than seven se-mester hours of college-level credit.Students completing their secondarylevel education outside of the U.S. arerequired to meet equivalent U.S. highschool performance standards. Studentswho have not earned any college-levelcredit should refer to the "FreshmanAdmission" section for nonresidents ofOklahoma. Students who have earnedone to six semester hours of college-level credit should refer to both the"Freshman Admission" and the "TransferAdmission" sections for nonresidents ofOklahoma.TransferAdmission (InternationalStu-dents). For the purpose of determiningadmission, a transfer student is one whohas earned seven or more semesterhours of college-level credit.

Students whohave earned 24 or more semester hoursof college-level credit should refer to the

"Transfer Admission" section for nonresi-dents of Oklahoma.

In evaluating college-level credit forcourse work completed outside of theU.S., OSU requires that the institutionwhere the credit was earned and theprogram of study be recognized as ter-tiary level through the standards set bythe country where the institution is lo-cated. OSU evaluates semestercredithours and grades earned based on U.S.equivalency standards.Readmission(Internati o na lStudents).An international student who has at-tended OSU but did not attend OSU theimmediate past semester must file anApplication for Readmission and anupdated Financial Guarantee. A studentwho has attended another college oruniversity since last attending OSU mustsubmit a transcript of all work attemptedafter leaving OSU. If the student's grade-point average meets minimum Universityand department standards, and his or herdisciplinary record is satisfactory, he orshe will be readmitted to OSU.EngineeringProgram Admission(Inter-national Students). Engineering is acompetitive program; therefore, enroll-ment preference is given to Oklahomaresidents. In addition to the above re-quirements, an international studentapplying for admission to pre-engineer-ing must meet requirements determinedby the College of Engineering. Theserequirements may exceed those requiredfor residents of Oklahoma. (See "Admis-sion Requirements" in the "College ofEngineering, Architecture and Technol-ogy" section.)I mmigration Issues. The Immigrationand Naturalization Service (INS) requiresthat international students file a statementwith the University showing adequatefinancial support for their education. OSUhas its own financial guarantee form thatinternational students need to completeas a requirement to receive the 1-20 orIAP-66, Oklahoma State University hasalmost no financial assistance for inter-national students.

Students should not plan to financetheir education with employment. Stu-dents who are maintaining their immigra-tion status, and making appropriateprogress toward their degrees are eli-gible to apply for on-campus Universityemployment for 20 hours per week. How-ever, students should take into consider-ation that campus employment opportu-nities are limited. Students holding F-1 orJ-1 visas are almost never permitted byINS to work outside of the Universitycampus, and can be deported from theUnited States if they are found to be inviolation of this regulation.

Students must notify INS when transfer-ring from one U.S. institution to another.


Students with F-1 status transferring fromanother U.S. institution must have his orher 1-20 processed for transfer by theOffice of International Students andScholars at OSU within 15 days of the firstenrollment. The student with J-1 statusshould contact the foreign student ad-viser at his or her current institution andthe Office of International Student Ser-vices at OSU.

It is the student's responsibilityto ob-tain the correct visa and to maintain hisor her status while in the United States.Conditions that apply to F-1 or J-1 statusare, summarized on the 1-20 and IAP-66,and are explained in detail during themandatory international student orienta-tion program, If a student is out of status,or has questions regarding INS regula-tions and OSU procedures, he or sheshould contact the Office of InternationalStudents and Scholars at OSU.

It is the responsibilityof each interna-tional student to understand and abideby the INS regulations affecting his or herstay in the U.S.

Beginning theEnrollment ProcessEnrollment Information. After admissionis granted, all students will receive de-tailed enrollment information. The fallsemester enrollment process for fresh-men is completed during scheduledorientation sessions conducted on cam-pus during the summer. Parents arewelcome and are encouraged to partici-pate in the enrollment process with thestudent.Advance Fee Payment. All new stu-dents are required to submit a $40 ad-vance fee payment prior to the beginningof the enrollment process. This fee re-mains in the student's OSU accountwhile he or she is attending the Univer-sity; it can be refunded upon withdrawalfrom the University or applied to anyoutstanding charge during the student'slast semester.Immunizations.A record of immuniza-tions must be submitted by each newstudent by the eighth week of the semes-ter. Students will receive the MedicalHistory and Immunization Schedule atenrollment, or students may contact theOSU Wellness Center.Physical Examination. All new studentsare required to complete a physicalexamination. OSU Board of Regentspolicy allows two options to satisfy thisrequirement: the student may completean OSU Wellness Center Health RiskAssessment (HRA) furnished by OSU; orthe student may go to a physician ofchoice at his or her expense, have a

physical exam, and submit the physicalexam report (including immunizationdata) to the OSU Wellness Center.

Regardless of which option is chosen,all new students are required to submitan immunization history. This require-ment includes proof or documentation ofvaccination for measles-two doses ofmeasles vaccine, mumps, polio, rubella,and tetanus-diphtheria.

Refer to the information supplied in theHRA packet for details associated withthe immunization requirement.

New students will automatically bebilled $20.00 for the HRA during the firstsemester of enrollment. Students exercis -

ing the second option will have the feewaived upon receipt of their physicalexam forms at the OSU Wellness Centerby the eighth week of the semester.

ResidenceClassification forPurposes of Admissionand Fees

(See also "Admission-Withdrawal"section of the "Academic Regulations.")

The admission requirements to Okla-homa State University may vary for resi-dents and for nonresidents of the state;therefore, prospective students shoulddetermine their residence status beforeexamining the admission requirements.Although the following policy statementis not necessarily inclusive of all regula-tions governing the classificationsofresident and nonresident students for thepurpose of fee payment, it should, never-theless, be of assistance to most stu-dents in determining their residencestatus. Administration of the state's resi-dence policy as it applies to OklahomaState University students is designated tothe Office of Admissions. Questionsconcerning interpretation of the policyshould be directed to the admissionsdirector for a ruling.

Regulations governing the residencestatus of students are the responsibilityofthe Oklahoma State Regents for HigherEducation and apply to all colleges anduniversities of the Oklahoma State Sys-tem of Higher Education.

Basic PrinciplesGoverning Residence.

1.Attendance at an educational institu-tion is interpreted as temporary resi-dence; therefore, a student neithergains nor loses residence status solelyby such attendance.

2. A nonresident student attending anOklahoma college or university onmore than a half-time basis is pre -

sumed to be in the state primarily foreducational purposes.

3. An individual is not deemed to haveacquired status as'a resident of Okla-homa until he or she has been in thestate for at least a year primarily as apermanent resident and not merely asa student. Likewise, an individualclassified as a resident of Oklahomashall not be reclassified as a nonresi-dent until 12 months after having leftOklahoma to live in another state.

4.All married persons shall be treated asequaf under this policy. Therefore,each spouse in a family shall establishhis or her own residence status on aseparate basis. Exceptions include(a) when a nonresident marries analready-establishedresident of Okla-homa, the nonresident may be consid-ered a resident after documentation ofthe marriage and proof of domicile aresatisfied, and (b) as provided under the"Full-time Professional Practitioner orWorker" provision.

5.The burden of proof of residence sta-tus or domicile shall be upon the appli-cant. Students filing an appeal forreclassificationof his or her residencestatus shall do so on forms provided orapproved by the Oklahoma State Re-gents for Higher Education.

6. Initial classification as a nonresidentstudent shall not prejudice the right ofa person to be reclassified thereafterfor subsequent semesters or terms ofenrollment as an Oklahoma residentprovided proof of residence can beestablished.

Student EnrollmentEnrollment is the process whereby

students are counseled by academicadvisers regarding course selection andplacement, and the subsequent schedul-ing of those courses. A student must beadmitted to the University priorto theenrollment process. (See "Entering theUniversity.") All new freshman and trans-fer students are required to submit anadvance fee payment prior to participa-tion in the enrollment process.

First-time Students(Freshmen and Transfer)

The fall enrollment and orientationperiod for new freshmen takes placeduring the summer months, while enroll-ment for new transfer students begins inthe spring. New students receive infor -

mation about these programs after beingadmitted to the University. Enrollmentand orientation activities include careercounseling, academic advising andcourse selection, and an introduction tocampus facilities and services. During L

the program, students meet with aca-demic advisers who are available toassist in the planning of academic pro-grams and the exploration of interestareas. Parents are encouraged to partici-pate in these programs:

ALPHA ProgramALPHA is the fall orientation program

designed for all students new to Okla-homa State University. It is coordinatedthrough the Office of Student Affairs. Theprogram is a combined effort of the Uni-versity and the local community to pro-vide a sense of belonging and well-beingfor new students. ALPHA provides anopportunity for new students to begin theprocess of adjusting to the Universityenvironment prior to the arrival ofupperclass students. The ALPHA experi-ence encourages students to becomeaware of the services, resources, andpeople available to them and to begin todevelop peer relationships. ALPHA be-gins on the Friday before classes start inAugust. Specific information is mailedduring the summer months to all newstudents who have been admitted.

Continuing StudentsStudents currently enrolled at OSU

may enroll for the subsequent semesterduring specified periods of the currentsemester. Priority for these enrollmentperiods addresses the needs of studentsin relation to graduation proximity, withpriority based on number of hoursearned. Prior to the specific enrollment


periods, students and academic advisersconsult regarding course selections.Advisers may sign a Trial Schedule formfor students wishing to enroll in the Sec-tioning Room of the Student Union, orauthorize an on-line enrollment clear-ance for students wishing to self-enrolleither by touch-tone telephone or by theIDS system terminals. An overdue ac-count with the University will preventcompletion of the enrollment process.Priority Enrollment. Certain groups ofstudents are extended the option of en-rolling prior to the time continuing stu-dents begin enrolling. Physically handi-capped students are extended the optionof priority enrollment. Those studentsactively participating in the UniversityHonors Program are extended the optionof priority enrollment. Current OSU stu-dents who accept University scholar-ships which require that the studentperform a service for the University at aregular time specified by the University,will be given priority enrolling. Scholar-ships that qualify students for priority inturning in trial schedules are Universityband, athletic, and graduate teachingassistantships for teaching or researchassignments. Wentz Scholars,President's Distinguished Scholars(PDS), President's Leadership Council(PLC) recipients, and participants in theOSRHE Academic Scholars program arealso extended the option of priority enroll-ment. Working part-time for the Universityor outside the University does not qualifythe student for priority enrollment.

Late EnrollmentA student is permitted to enroll during

the first week of a semester or throughthe third day of a summer session or onthe first day of a summer short course. Astudent enrolling late will pay a late en-rollment fee. The late enrollment fee willnot be charged on or prior to the first dayof a summer short course.

Identification CardsAs part of the enrollment process,

each new student is issued a photoidentification card. This card, along withthe current fee receipt, establishes thestudent's identity as an OSU student andauthorizes access to certain Universityfacilities. Lost or stolen identificationcards will be replaced at a nominal feewith proper photo identificationfrom thestudent.

Change of ScheduleAdding Courses. Approval of thestudent's adviser is required for adding acourse. The end of the first week of aregular semester or the third class day of

a summer session is the last day acourse may be added (nonrestrictive).Ashort course may be added no later thanthe first day of the short course. Withinstructor approval, a course may beadded during the second week ofclasses of a regular semester or thefourth or fifth day of a summer session(restrictive).Dropping Courses. Dropping refers tothe dropping of one or more courseswhile remaining enrolled in at least onecourse for a given semester. Coursesmay not be dropped without the approvalof the student's academic adviser.

At any time prior to the end of thesecond week of a regular semester orthe first week of a summer session, orduring the proportionate period for blockor short courses, a student may drop acourse, and no record of the course willappear on the student's academicrecord.

After the deadline for dropping with norecord, but prior to the end of the sixthweek of a regular semester or the thirdweek of a summer session, or proportion-ate periods for block or short courses, astudent may drop a course and the gradeof "W" (dropped) will be recorded on thestudent's academic record.

After the sixth week of a regular se-mester or the third week of a summersession but prior to the end of the 10thweek of a regular semester or the fifthweek of a summer session, a studentmay drop a course with the grade of "W"(dropped) or "F" (failing) as assigned bythe instructor. The grade of "W" or "F" willbe recorded on the student's academicrecord and the grade of "F" will be calcu-lated in the grade-point average.

After the 10th week of a regular se-mester, or the fifth week of a summersession, or proportionate periods forblock or short courses, a student may notdrop a course and will be assigned onlythe grade of "A", "B", "C," "D" or "F," or,when appropriate"I,""NP,""P,""S,""X" by the instructor at the end of thesemester. (Exceptions to this policy maybe allowed by petition due to extraordi-nary circumstances. The petition pro-cess is initiated in the student's dean'soffice. A petition requires the signaturesof the student's instructor, adviser anddean with the grade of "W" or "F" assignedby the instructor.)

A student may not drop any course inwhich a formal charge of academicdishonesty is pending against the stu-dent. If the student is absolved of theformal charge, he or she may drop thecourse with either a "W" or "F," (accordingto the drop grade policy), appearing onthe academic record. If the student isfound guilty, the instructor may take ap-propriate disciplinary action, including

assigning the grade "F" for the assign-ment or the course.

Withdrawing from theUniversity

Withdrawing refers to withdrawingfrom all courses for which a student isenrolled for a given semester. The with-drawal process is initiated in thestudent's dean's office. The studentshould appear in person, request anofficial withdrawal, and hand carry theform to the appropriate offices to com-plete the process. If the student is,unableto appear in person, the request for with-drawal may be initiated through the mailor by phone to the student's dean's of-fice. A student who withdraws prior to theend of the sixth week of a regular semes-ter or the third week of a summer sessionwill receive a grade of "W" (withdrawn) onthe student's academic record.

Costs

Fees and TuitionIt is extremely important that students

carefully consider the total financing oftheir education, from the entering term tothe completion of the degree. If financialhelp will be needed beyond those fundswhich the student or the family is able toprovide, the student should make thenecessary applications for financialassistance well in advance of enroll-ment. Students should pay particularattention to early deadlines for applica-tion for grants, scholarships, work-study,and Perkins Loans. While the needs andresources of each student differ, theUniversity can provide a general list offees and expenses normally encoun-tered.

Students are given information at thetime they complete their enrollment onthe procedures and deadlines for pay-ment of tuition and fees. (See "FinancialObligations" elsewhere in the Catalog.)

Fees for Special ServicesAll students pay special fees each

semester to contribute to the bettermentand general welfare of the campus com-munity.

User's fees, other fund-raisingactivities, and, in some cases, member-

ship dues provide the remaining supportto make these positive, constructive, andmeaningful programs and services avail-able to all students.

Students regularly enrolled in theUniversity are assessed facility, healthand activity fees that entitle them to use'the Student Union, the Colvin PhysicalEducation Center, and the Health Clinic,and that provide support for studentgovernance, organizations and pro-grams.

Such courses typically areoffered at unusual times and presentedin a concentrated curriculum format.Other extenuating circumstances may because to consider denying use of andcharge for these facilities or participationin activities sponsored by these fees.

The library automation and mainframefee defrays the cost of equipment, soft-ware, and other aspects related to oper-ating the on-line computerized libraryservice.

The technology fee provides for themaintenance of existing facilities, and theexpansion and development of centraland collegiate facilities, software, andmultimedia capabilities. This fee is ap-portioned between a central (University)fee and a college fee; all courses arecharged the central fee (per semestercredit hour) and the college fee (persemester credit hour) based on the rateapproved for the college that teaches thespecific course.

The Boardof Regents exercises governmentalcontrol of the Center, contracts withparticipating universities for courses anddegree programs, and provides state-appropriatedfun is for . delivery of thoseprograms.

Programs of study are offered by fourparticipating universities-OklahomaState University, Langston, NortheasternState, and the University of Oklahoma.The four universities are not permitted toduplicate programs. Oklahoma StateUniversity is approved to offer coursesleading to 18 graduate degrees, twocertification programs and two under-graduate degrees.

Faculty from the participating universi -

ties provide instruction. UCT is not autho-rized to hire its own faculty. To ensureprograms at UCT are comparable tothose on the Stillwater campus, Okla-homa State University assigns UCTclasses as part of the regular teachingload of OSU faculty when possible.

. Courses taken through the University

Center at Tulsa are treated as residencecredit at the university teaching thecourse. Courses taken at UCT that areoffered by Langston, Northeastern State,or the University of Oklahoma are ac-cepted at Oklahoma State University astransfer credits. For information on trans-fer of credits, refer to the section "Transferof Credits" elsewhere in the Catalog.

Students wishing to take courses atUCT enroll and pay tuition and fees atthe Center. Tuition and fee rates forcourses offered at UCT are set by theOklahoma State Regents for Higher Edu-cation and are published in the UCTclass schedule each semester.

Admission requirements for studentsseeking admission to programs offeredby Oklahoma State University through theUniversity Center at Tulsa are the sameas if they were pursuing the degree pro-gram on the Stillwater campus. Studentspursuing a degree from OSU throughUCT are also eligible to apply for finan-cial aid.

Special Services

Academic AdvisingAcademic advising is considered a

major function within the University andis student-centered in that it serves thestudent first and foremost and not a par-ti cular discipline, department or college.Academic advising is designed to assiststudents in developing their intellectualpotential through effective use of allresources available at the University-academic, cultural and social. Thus, therole of the student's academic adviser is(1) to assist in educational planning,including clarification of career andeducational goals, curriculum planning,and short-term course selection, (2) tobecome aware of and make appropriatereferrals to campus support services,(3) to provide information to prospectivemajors, and (4) to prepare degree plansfor graduating seniors and submit theseto the respective college graduationcertification office.

The advising function is performedwithin each of the undergraduate col-leges and in the Office of University Aca-demic Services. Each college structuresits advising system based upon thecollege's philosophy and perceived


student needs. In most colleges, fresh-men and undeclared students are ad-vised through the college's office ofstudent academic services, whereasstudents who have declared majors areadvised by an adviser in their majordepartment.

Each academic dean has establishedan office of student academic services torepresent him or her in matters concern-ing undergraduatestudents. Students areencouraged to contact their office ofstudent academic services when ques -

tions arise regarding advising, academicprograms and requirements, and aca-demic support services.

The locations of the offices of studentacademic services are:Agricultural Sciences and Natural

Whitehurst HallStudents should keep in mind that

while the University provides advising asa service and resource, the ultimateresponsibilityfor identifying and complet-ing degree requirements rests with thestudent.

University AcademicServices

The Office of University AcademicServices (UAS) is responsible for provid-ing academic advising and other relatedacademic services to students who areadmitted provisionallyto OSU throughthe Alternative Admission and AdultAdmission programs, as well as proba-tionary students referred by the aca-demic colleges. The Alternative Admis-sion Program allows approximately eightpercent of OSU's entering freshmanclass to be admitted without meeting allof the normal criteria for admission; theAdult Admission Program allows studentswho are 21 and older and those on ac-tive military duty an opportunity to seekadmission to the University, providedthey have never completed prior collegework.

Students who enroll through UAS areassigned to advisers who monitorremediation of curricular deficienciesand progress toward meeting theUniversity's General Education require-ments. Advisers also help clarify Univer-sity policies and assist students in explor-

ing career goals. UAS advisers areknowledgeable about the degree pro-grams in all six undergraduate academiccolleges, and one primary goal of UAS isto provide personal attention and assis-tance to students as they develop suc-cessful study habits and explore thevarious academic options available tothem at OSU.Student Academic Mentor Program.The Student Academic Mentor (SAM)Program is a campus-wide service thatpairs each new freshman, transfer andadult student with an upper class studentin an effort to ease the transition-to OSU.These "SAMS" are carefully selectedamong continuing students at OSU towork with new students individually andin small groups during ALPHA, the weekprior to the beginning of the fall semester,and sometimes through their freshmanorientation classes to help them feelwelcome and to assimilate into campuslife.University Academic AssessmentProgram. UAS also provides academicadvising and counseling to probationarystudents enrolled in the UniversityAca-demic Assessment Program (UAAP). Thisprogram is designed for students whohave experienced academic difficulty,many of whom are on probation or havebeen readmitted after suspension, aswell as transfer students who are admit-ted on probation and those students whoare denied enrollment through theiracademic colleges. UAAP gives studentsan opportunity to evaluate their careerand educational goals in an attempt todevelop a realistic and successful edu-cational plan. In addition to meetingminimum grade-point averages requiredby the Oklahoma State Regents forHigher Education, students must enroll inand complete the Academic Assessmentand Evaluation course. This course isdesigned to help students identify theirreasons for experiencing academicdifficulty and determine ways to over-come their academic weaknesses. Italso assists students in exploring variouscareer and educational alternatives.

In addition to the teaching, academicadvising and counseling functions ofUAS, the office serves as a central infor-mation center whereby referral to a vari-ety of campus academic and non-aca -

demic support services is given.Tutorial Service. Qualified tutors forcommon general education courses areavailable free of charge for studentsenrolled through University AcademicServices. Tutor applicants are thoroughlyscreened to guarantee quality tutors andare matched with students who needtheir services. Tutors,are paid from UASfunding; however, students who fail tokeep their appointments will be billeddirectly for the cost. SAM tutoring, as well

as information regarding free departmen-tal tutoring programs and other campus-wide academic support and resourcecenters, is made available to all OSUstudents through the Office of UniversityAcademic Services.

Student UnionThe primary purpose of the Oklahoma

State University Student Union is to servethe members of the University communitythrough an organization that provides amyriad of necessary and convenientgoods and services; offers programs toenhance the educational, social, cul-tural, and recreational development ofindividuals; and fosters an atmosphereconducive to open interaction and ex-change among all students, faculty, staff,alumni and guests.

Dating back to 1815, college unionshave always been thought of as "placeswhere all may meet on common ground."In their early years, the college unionswere debating halls for university stu-dents. Through the years, student unionshave added to these halls such facilitiesas recreation centers, dining halls andmeeting rooms. Today student unionsbring together students, faculty, staff,alumni and guests in a friendly, casualatmosphere. They are not merely build-ings, but serve as the community cen-ter-"the heart of the campus."

The OSU Student Union is certainly noexception to this tradition as it has beenserving the University community andstate since opening in 1950. With a facil-ity consisting of 543,441 square feet, itstands as one of the largest and mostcomprehensive unions in the world. Itprovides the University with such ser-vices as an 81-room hotel, the Book-store, a variety of lounges, a theater,extensive food services, a shopping mall,a recreation center, a post office, a travelagency and many University offices.

The Student Union is the center ofstudent activities as it houses the officesfor major student organizations. Manyactivities such as movies, dances andspeakers are provided for students by theUnion's student programming organiza-tion, the Student Union Activities Board.

As Oklahoma State University's con-ference center, the Student Union hostsmany continuing education conferencesthroughout the year. The variety of meet-ing rooms located throughout the Union

are also available for OSU student orga-nizations and faculty meetings, normallyat no charge.

Although the OSU Student Union'sannual budget exceeds 11 million, lessthan 10 percent of the total cost of oper-ating the Union is funded from studentfees. As the Union receives no statefunds for its operations, the remainder ofits budget is generated from the sale ofgoods and services, thereby making itvirtually a self-supporting Universityfacility.

TelecommunicationsCenter

The Telecommunications Center is avisible commitment to the University'sdesire to keep pace with the communi-cations revolution. Educational Televi-sion Services (ETS) occupies the facilityand is equipped with two independent,fully operational studios with a capacityof eight cameras. A third studio is a self-contained, instructor-controlled,classroom-style studio for videotapingcourses and live two-way presentationsvia compressed video fiber optic lines.There are two off-line and one on-lineediting suites and two remote cameraunits.

ETS has the ability to transmit or re-ceive on either the C-band or Ku-bandsatellite format, including using a Ku-band satellite truck from remote loca-tions. ETS produces over 1400 live andtaped programs per year consisting ofvideo, teleconferences, educationalprograms, documentaries, video trainingtapes, and public service announce-ments for the University, state agenciesand for state and federal grants.

ETS employs a full-time staff of 35 inthe areas of production, engineering andart. Each of these areas is also staffedwith students working to earn practicalexperience under the guidance of pro-fessionals. For those students who meetthe prerequisites, who are conscientiousand who are willing to work, there arethree methods of entry into employmentat ETS. One method is through an intern-ship which allows the student to earncollege credit. Another method isthrough part-time employment at ETS,usually reserved for those students whohave completed an internship, and thethird is through the University's work-study program.

Wellness CenterThe OSU Wellness Center offers a

variety of health-related programs for allOSU students. These programs includefree wellness screening (cholesterol,blood pressure, body composition, and

computerized health risk appraisal),nutrition counseling, wellness educationclasses, certification of aerobics andweight training instructors, and campus-wide health promotion activities.

The Wellness Center offers opportuni-ties to undergraduate and graduatestudents to participate in practicum andinternship programs in the disciplines ofcomputer science, counseling and psy-chology, exercise science, health edu-cation, marketing, nutrition, pre-physicaltherapy, and wellness.

Student Life

Allied ArtsAllied Arts, a unit of the Office of Stu-

dent Activities, is responsible for present-ing professional, touring, live performingarts events for the university community.Selection of these events is the functionof a committee composed of students,faculty, staff and representativesfrom thelocal community. Events are selectedfrom a broad range of performing arts,and include orchestras and choralgroups, chamber ensembles, theatricalproductions, mime, jazz, opera, balletand dance, international and traditionalethnic performing arts, and vocal andinstrumental soloists. The goal of theAllied Arts program is to provide theuniversity community with the opportunityto experience quality, live performing artsin the university setting.

The Residence Halls Association actsas the voice of residence hall students tothe University administration concerningpolicies and regulations, and coordi-nates campus-wide activities for theenrichment of residence hall living. Allresidence halls on campus combine toform the Residence Halls Association(RHA). Each hall has its own electedofficers and constitution, and is a part ofthe RHA system of representative gov-ernment.

TheaterThe four to six plays produced each

year range from classical to contempo-rary; from sublime to ridiculous; from highseriousness to low comedy. So too, vari-ety in casting is assured by a policy ofchoosing actors from the entire range ofthe OSU student body, regardless of

OSU Police and cadet officers providea positive image to visitors and membersof the campus community, whether it isproviding directions, parking information,or just a friendly welcome. Officers repre-sent the University as a group of caringand professional people, intent uponenhancing a friendly community atmo-sphere. Necessary enforcement in-cludes using alternatives to arrest whenreasonable, and full cooperation withadministrative services and functionsthat have an impact on student conduct.Enforcement efforts are geared towardproviding a safe community.

OSU Police participation in athleticand special event staging and planningensures that all aspects of safety andsecurity of participants are considered.OSU Police officers provide professionalcrowd control and traffic regulation be-fore, during, and after such events. Asfirst responders to emergency situations,OSU Police are often cited by citizens fordecisiveness and professionalism.

Students and staff find the OSU Policewilling to share statistics, insights, andexperiences as a basis for class reportsor vocational interest. OSU Police man-agers seek proactive means to avoidproblems and situations, whether it issuggesting added security measures,providing insight on planned activities, orusing investigative analysis to assign adeterrent force.

For the OSU Police, "service" is not justa word or a part of a catchy slogan, but away of life. People programs, such asmotorist assistance, money escorts, andemergency notifications are a part of thedepartment's efforts to be involved in thecommunity. OSU's emergency phonesystem was expanded, and there arecurrently 46 such phones strategicallylocated on campus. These phones, withimmediate response from the police,have been in operation for 17 years andare still being copied by other universi-ties. The department employs 16 cadetofficers for largely parking enforcement,but campus organizations needing reli-able and professional-appearingdriversoften arrange to use members of thecadet corps.

Operating under a 1989 grant from theOklahoma Highway Safety Office, theOSU Police launched the program Cam-pus Community Alcohol Safety Effort(C-CASE), aimed at promoting seatbeltuse and educating citizens, primarilystudents, about the effects and penaltiesof alcohol use and abuse. A secondpositive effect of the C-CASE effort wasthe strict enforcement of alcohol-relatedlaws, that has shown dramatic results ingetting the drunk driver off campusstreets and consequentially preventingaccidents. This program continues inpart, with emphasis on traffic enforce-ment.


Thousands of visitors, campers, fisher-men, and sightseers visit Lake CarlBlackwell and surrounding recreationalareas. OSU Police officers providefriendly and efficient police protection,including lake patrol and rescue opera-tions on the water.

Overall, the OSU Police Departmentbelieves in providing proactive law en-forcement and service to the Universitycommunity.

Crime Awareness

Security, Prevention,Statistics, Intervention

CrimeIt is an unfortunate fact that criminal

incidents of all types occur on collegecampuses. Many campuses around thecountry investigate and make public thenature of crimes, the number, and howthey are investigated. Oklahoma StateUniversity subscribes to that approachand further believes that the publicshould know how active the OSU Policeare in crime prevention and detection.

Reporting CrimesCrime victims, regardless how seem-

ingly insignificantthe crime, are encour-aged to promptly report the incident tothe OSU Police or the appropriate policeagency. To report a crinie, a victim orwitness need only call the police phonenumber, and a police officer will meet theperson to gather the information. Anofficial report is made with copies avail-able to the victim. Each day the incidentsfrom the previous day, excluding names,are summarized and made available tothe OSU president, key OSU staff, otherlaw enforcement agencies, and themedia. Each month the number of inci-dents in each category of crime arecounted and reported to the OklahomaState Bureau of Investigation, who in turnprovides the information to the FederalBureau of Investigation. Each year, theFBI publishes a book of crime statisticscalled Crime in the United States, thatincludes accurate accounting of thecriminal incidents that occurred on theOSU campus. OSU has reported crimestatistics in this manner since the FBIbegan publishing campus crime statis -

tics in 1971.

Crimes in ProgressTo report a crime in progress, a per-

son, victim or witness, can dial 911 or

use one of the outside emergency tele-phones, or call one of the police phonenumbers. Either reporting method willstimulate the response of police, fire,ambulance, or other first responders. Inaddition, the victim of serious crimes canrequest support personnel, such asministers, rape crisis or domestic vio-lence counseling, during or after report-ing.

Additionally, crime victims may beeligible for funds through victim compen-sation laws administered by the Office ofthe District Attorney.

Actual Crime at OSUWhen comparing crime at OSU to

other institutions of similar size, OSU'scrime statistics are one of the lowest.While a part of the former Big Eight ath-letic conference, OSU boasted havingfewer crimes than any of the other BigEight universities. As members of the BigTwelve conference, OSU ranked 11 incrime statistics in the 1997 year.

The crime and arrest statistics reportedare those which occurred within thejurisdictional boundaries of campus.They do not include "off campus" organi-zations or "off campus" private housing;these are within the city's police jurisdic-tion. It is the responsibilityof the StillwaterPolice Department to monitor and recordcriminal activities at "off campus" organi-zations or "off campus" private housing.Crime statistics concerning these loca-tions or areas are available at theStillwater Police Department.

FutureAlthough it is believed that the low

incidence of crime will continue, thisreport is not intended to give a falsesense of security. Crime will occur, butprevention efforts can be effective inreducing the opportunities for criminalactivity. Citizens play a key role in crimeprevention efforts by being cautious,careful, alert to personal safety and pro-tective of personal and University pos-sessions. The crime prevention tipsnoted below should be followed.

Security and AccessControl

It is OSU's policy to lock the doors ofbuildings that are not in use. However,when working or studying in buildingsafter normal working hours, it is sug-gested that individual offices be locked,based upon an assumption that unre-stricted access to the building is pos-sible. Some buildings on campus arerarely locked, at the department'sre-quest, since students study and work onprojects all hours of the day and night.

Again, individualoffices should belocked by the user on a presumption thatthe building is accessible. Residencehalls have open access between thehours of 6 a.m. to midnight, Sundaythrough Thursday, and 6 a.m. to 2 a.m.on Friday and Saturday. During non-open access hours, all residence halldoors are locked except the front deskentrance. Instances of propped opendoors have occurred, and residentsareencouraged to take security precautionsin the halls and rooms. Individual roomsshould be locked at all times for safety.

Crime PreventionOSU has experienced success at

reducing and preventing crime. Some ofthe more notable efforts are:Emergency telephone systemEmergency 911 dialing24-hour preventive patrolsCampus foot patrol by uniformed officersPolice officer bicycle patrolBurglar alarms in key areas24-hour staff in Residence HallsCustodial staff in academic buildingsafter hoursCrime prevention seminar presentationsto groupsCrime prevention pamphlets for studentsand employeesMonitoring of some parking lots by sur-veillance camerasCrime stopper telephone line - 744-TIPS(744-8477)

In addition to preventing crime, consid-erable effort is devoted to crime interven-tion. All reported crimes are investigatedimmediately. Follow-up investigationoccurs to identify the offenders. Wheremultiple incidents occur, surveillancetechniques are implemented to helpapprehend violators. When caught, of-fenders are processed through thecounty court system and OSU whenappropriate.

Police ProtectionThe OSU campus is protected by a

campus police agency consisting of 32sworn officers, 10 support persons, and14 part-time persons. The agency isoperated and available 24 hours a day,365 days a year. Authority of the swornofficers is derived from state statutes;these allow for full police powers on OSUproperty. In addition by agreement withthe City of Stillwater, campus police andcity police enjoy an excellent workingrelationship. All campus police officersundergo an extensive selection processand meet state-mandated training re-quirements.

42 The University

Community PolicingThe department subscribes to the

concepts of community policing. Theofficers have been practicing problem-solving concepts for years. The depart-ment now employs six officers throughfederal funding for community policing. Asatellite office has been established inWillham Hall to facilitate contact withresidence hall students. A police officerbicycle patrol was established to providean opportunityfor the officers to havecloser contact with students.

Avoiding VictimizationTips for personal safety and property

security:Be cautious of strangers.Avoid getting into vulnerable no-exitplaces.Do not hesitate to call police when con-fronted by unknown persons.Keep house or residence hall roomlocked.At night, walk in groups of at least two.Walk with confidence, and avoid walkingnear bushes and parked cars.Become familiar with the location ofemergency telephones.When parking, remove valuables fromplain view and lock the vehicle.Engrave valuables with driver's licensenumber and record serial numbers.Make copies of credit cards and lists ofother valuables carried on person.Write name and ID number in severalplaces in textbooks.Lock bicycle in a bicycle rack.Report all incidents and losses to policeimmediately.

When serious crimes occur on or offcampus that are considered to be athreat to the campus community, thatinformation will be provided to faculty,staff and students. The medium for thisinformation dissemination will be thecampus newspaper, faculty/staff newslet-ters, or in special instances, specificnotices to on-campus residences. Suchnotices may be posted on residence hallentrance doors, in residents' mail boxes,or placed on electronic voice mail.

Persons may dial the campus phonenumber 744-6063 and have voice mailaccess to crime tip information, crimeupdate, crime prevention tips, and park-ing information.

Alcoholic Beverages andOther Drugs

As set forth in local, state and federallaws, and the rules and regulations of the

University, Oklahoma State Universityprohibits the unlawful possession, use, ordistribution of illicit drugs and alcohol bystudents and employees in buildings,facilities, grounds, or other propertyowned and/or controlled by the Univer-sity or as part of University activities.

Under OSU regulations, no low-pointbeer or other alcoholic beverage is al-lowed in OSU housing, including fraterni-ties and sororities, except for marriedstudent housing, regardless of age. Fur-thermore, under the same regulations,the possession/consumption of low-point beer or alcohol by those of legalage (over 21) is allowed only in certaindesignated, non-public places on theOSU campus, properties and facilities.For further explanation, see the pamphlet"OSU Dangers of Drugs and AlcoholAbuse."

Drug and alcohol laws are vigorouslyenforced on the OSU campus. Violatorsare subject to criminal prosecution in theDistrict Court of Payne County. The en-forcement techniques range from plainview violation to long-term undercoverinvestigations by local, state, or federalagents and agencies.

University Counseling Services andthe Employee Assistance Program havecounseling and rehabilitation programsfor students and employees, respec-tively. Should these programs not meetan individual's needs, there are otherprograms in the community or nearbythat may be better suited. A number ofsuch programs are listed in the "OSUDangers of Drugs and Alcohol Abuse"pamphlet.

Sexual Assault

What To Do If VictimizedOklahoma State University's preven-

tion efforts in the area of sexual assault(including rape) involve the entire com-munity. Many groups are involved insexual assault prevention. These groupsinclude the OSU Police Department,Residential Life, University Counseling,OSU faculty, Greek Life, University Con-duct Office, OSU Student Health Center,OSU Mental Health, PaNOK (studentswho are peer educators), and OSU staffpersonnel. They provide training pro-grams, presentations, and workshops toany interested individuals or groups.

Program topics generally includestranger rape, date and acquaintancerape, rapist characteristics, rape traumasyndrome, and victim recovery. An in-creasing number of presentations, ex-plaining the male's role in sexual as-

saults, are directed to all male audi-ences, such as fraternities and athleticteams.

Procedures to FollowA victim of sexual assault should follow

certain procedures and consider severaloptions. These procedures and optionsare clearly outlined in the rape avoid-ance seminars mentioned previouslyand "Rape Prevention" pamphlets madeavailable to the OSU community. Theseeducational programs and pamphletsalso outline techniques and strategiesthat help people recognize and avoidsexual assault threats.

Evidence. Preserving evidence is ofparamount importance after a sexualassault. Victims should be careful not tobathe, douche, wash clothing, or tamperwith other potential evidence after asexual assault. The first inclination maybe to do one or more of these; however,the temptation should be resisted.Evidence is critical in a criminalprosecution.

Contacting the Police Department.When a sexual assault is reported to theOSU Police Department or to theStillwater Police Department, an officer isdispatched. Determining the extent ofphysical and emotional trauma that thevictim has suffered will be the officer'sfirst concern. If the attack just occurred,the officer will want a brief review of theevents, a description of the assailant, thedirection of travel, and a description ofthe vehicle used by the assailant, if any.This information is necessary in order toapprehend the assailanjas soon aspossible. After the initial interview, theofficer or whomever is designated by thevictim, will assist in getting a completechange of clothes.

Agreeing to have a Sexual AssaultExamination. An officer or designee willtake the victim to the Student HealthClinic or the Stillwater Medical Center tobe examined by a physician. A completephysical examination will be given as wellas treatment for any injuries. A friend orrelative may be permitted to accompanythe victim. In addition, the victim may beexamined for the purpose of obtainingevidence that would be needed in court.Appropriate antibiotic therapy can begiven to decrease the chances ofdeveloping venereal disease. After theexamination at the hospital, the officermay bring the victim back to the policeheadquarters or another location tocomplete the interview. Again, acounselor is encouraged to be present.


The victim of a rape is not responsiblefor legal expenses related to the criminalprosecution. The case is prosecuted bythe Office of the District Attorney. Thevictim only has to contribute time. TheStillwater Medical Center can provideinitial medical services'for rape victims.The Crime Victims Compensation Boardcan provide payment for medical ser-vices and counseling, even if chargesare not filed. The victim need only file anapplication with the Office of the DistrictAttorney.

Police Investigation.Later, at policeheadquarters, the victim will be asked tobe more specific about the events of theattack. A person of the victim's choosingmay accompany the victim during thisperiod. This questioning is done to helpthe investigation and to help arrange theevents firmly in mind. The victim'scomments will probably be taperecorded for future reference. This willmake testifying in court much easier andless frightening. It will be handledconsideratelyand courteously. Only theinvestigating officer will ask questions.Based on conversations with the officer,the victim can then decide whether or notto,file charges. Threats or harassment ofa rape victim after char es have beenfiled are rare. When fini hed at policeheadquarters, the victi can go to aplace of their choice. SU and StillwaterPolice officers have b en trained to dealwith sexual assault ctims. However, ifthe victim should feel uncomfortablespeaking to a male officer, every effortwill be made to notify a female officer,female counselor, or female volunteer.

A rape or sexual assault may be re-ported to the hall director, a universitycounselor, or health worker at the Stu-dent Health Center. Charges do not haveto be filed against the attacker if a rape isreported. However, it is wise to give infor-mation to the police anyway. The infor-mation and suspect description may helplocate a suspect in other offenses andpossibly prevent another person frombecoming the victim of a rape. The po-li ce will not know that there is a rapist oncampus unless they are told. The policewill not pressure the victim to filecharges.

Victims of sexual assault can elect tohave personal information eliminatedfrom police reports.

Support Services

UniversityConduct Office. If the victimdoes not want the case to be addressedthrough the criminal justice system,another alternative is available. Casesinvolving students who are accused of

non-academic misconduct might beassigned to the Office of StudentConduct. Persons found guilty of sexualassault, forcible or non-forcible, could beplaced on probation or suspended fromOSU. Both the accuser and the accusedare entitled to the same opportunitiestohave others present during a campusdisciplinary hearing, and both areentitled to be informed of the outcome ofany disciplinary proceeding. Furtherinformation can be obtained bycontacting the Office of Student Conductat 744-5470. Also, a copy of the"Student's Rights and Responsibilities"can be obtained at various locations oncampus.

Role of Housing. The hall directors andresident assistants who work in theresidence halls continually attend sexualassault training programs, and they learnhow to respond to a student who hasbeen victimized by a sexual or physicalattack. They have been informed aboutthe resources available; in fact, somehave been trained to conduct sexualassault presentations and workshops. Avictim of a sexual assault may requestassistance from the University admin-istration in changing academic and/orliving situations where a continued threatmay be reasonably assumed.

Role of Counseling Services. The OSUStudent Health Center and UniversityCounseling Services provide individualand group counseling services for thosevictimized by sexual or physical assault.Services are available to all OklahomaState University students, regardless ofgender, and their significant others.

The psychological and emotionaltrauma after a sexual assault can bepainful. Possible symptoms include:eating disorders, sleep disturbances,lack of trust, guilt feelings, depression,mood swings, and relationship and com-munication problems. Sexual assaultincidents can only be greatly reducedwhen men and women understand thedynamics involved in sexual assaultsand are willing to participate in educa-tional programming and ongoing com-munication.

They are eligibleto enroll in any of the undergraduatecolleges except as may be restricted.(See "Admission to Certain ProfessionalPrograms.")1.6 Scholastic Requirements for Con-tinuing Enrollment of a Student underAcademic Probation in an Undergradu-ate College. For continued enrollment inan undergraduate program, a studentmust have earned a retention grade-pointaverage as indicated below:

Total hours Minimum retentionattempted grade-point

average required

0 through 30 1.7031 or more 2.00

Freshman students, (30 or fewer credithours, as defined by OSRHE policy), witha retention GPA of 1.70 to less than 2.00will be placed on academic notice.These students should remain in contactwith their student academic service of-fices regarding special academic sup-port services and procedures.

Atthe end of that semester, he or she musthave a semester GPA of 2.00, not toinclude activity, performance or remedialcourses, or meet the minimum standardrequired above, in order to continue as astudent.

All courses in which a student has arecorded grade will be counted in thecalculation of the grade-point average forretention purposes excluding anycourses repeated or reprieved, andexcluding remedial courses and physicaleducation activity courses. These calcu-lations are made three times per year, tocoinside with the conclusion of the falland spring semesters, and the collectivesummer term. Grades submitted afterthese calculations are carried forward tothe next calculation. (See also "Grade-point Average Calculating" and "Aca-demic Forgiveness.")


A senior, with 90 or more hours in aspecified degree program, who hasfailed to meet the retention grade-pointaverage of 2.00 or the semester GPA of2.00, may enroll, at the discretion of theinstitution, in an additional 15 semesterhours in a further attempt to achieve therequirementsfor retention. Such studentswill be afforded this extension one timeonly.

Seniors must achieve a 2.00 GPA orabove for each semester of course workcomprising this one-time exception. Tocontinue beyond the 15-hour exception,the senior must raise the retention GPA to2.00.

A student who has beensuspended from the University for aca-demic reasons may not be readmitteduntil one regular semester (fall or spring)has elapsed (unless the faculty appealscommittee grants immediate reinstate-ment). Students who wish to appealsuspension status should inquire aboutprocedures and deadlines from the Of-fice of the Executive Vice President.

Readmission after one regular semes-ter has elapsed will be considered on themerits of the individual case. Suspendedstudents can be readmitted only onetime. If a student is suspended a secondtime, he or she must attend another insti-tution and raise the retention GPA beforereadmission to OSU can be considered.

Beginning with the Spring and Sum-mer semesters of 1998, a student sus-pended from OSU at the end of the springsemester may continue in the summersemester at OSU if this spring suspen-sion was the student's first suspension.The student must complete a minimum ofsix hours and must achieve a 2,00 sum-mer semester GPA, or raise the gradua-tion/retention GPA to the OSRHE stan-dard, in order to continue in the subse-quent fall semester. The student shouldcontact his or her dean's office for addi-tional information and restrictions. (Seealso "Academic Suspension.")1.9 Readmission. A student who hasattended OSU but was not enrolled dur-ing the immediate past semester (exceptthe summer session) must submit anApplication for Readmission.A studentwho has enrolled in another college oruniversity since last attending OSU, mustsubmit a transcript from each school.Admission status will be determined afteran evaluation of the previous work hasbeen made.1.10 Withdrawing from the University.Withdrawing refers to withdrawing fromall courses for which a student is enrolledfor a given semester. The withdrawalprocess is initiated in the student'sdean's office.

A student who withdraws prior to theend of the sixth week of a regular semes-ter or the third week of a summer session

will receive a grade of "W" (withdrawn) onthe student's academic record. A studentwho withdraws after the sixth week of aregular semester or the third week of asummer session but prior to "Pre-finalsWeek," will receive a grade of "W" (with-drawn) or "F" (failing) as assigned by theinstructor of each course. The grade of" W" or "F" will be recorded on thestudent's academic record and thegrade of "F" will be calculated in thegrade-point average.

After the beginning of "Pre-finals Week"a student may not withdraw from theUniversity and will be assigned only thegrade of "A," "B," "C," "D," or "F" or (whenappropriate)"I,""NP," "P,""S,""U,"or "X" bythe instructor of each course at the endof the semester or summer session.

2. Student Status

2.1 Classification of Students. Under-graduate classification is determined bythe criteria below:Freshman fewer than 28 semester

credit hours passedSophomore 28 to 59 semester

credit hours passedJunior 60 to 93 semester

credit hours passedSenior 94 or more semester

credit hours passed2.2 Full-time Students. Regular semes-ters: undergraduate students who areenrolled in 12 or more semester credithours are classified as "full-time" stu-dents. Graduate students enrolled in nineor more semester credit hours are classi-fied as "full-time." Summer session: un-dergraduate students who are enrolled insix or more semester credit hours, orgraduate students who are enrolled infour or more semester credit hours, areclassified as "full-time." Credit hours en-rolled in through correspondence studyare not counted toward full-time status,unless the course is independent studytaken through regular enrollment.

Students engaged in an internship orcooperative education program assign-ment that requires full-time work on theassignment are regarded as full-timestudents when they are enrolled in thenumber of credit hours deemed appropri-ate for the academic credit they receivefor the assignment.

A student holding a 0.50 FTE graduateassistant appointment, and enrolled in aminimum of six hours during the fall orspring semester, and three hours duringthe summer semester will be certified asa full-time graduate student. Any FTEappointment less than 0.50 requires ninehours of enrollment for the fall or springsemester, and four hours of enrollment forthe summer semester in order for thestudent to be classified as a full-timestudent.

46 The University

A student enrolled for the final semes-ter of a bachelor's degree program maybe classified as a full-time student ifenrolled in fewer than 12 hours duringthat semester.

A student in the terminal phase of theplan of study leading to a master's ordoctoral degree, may be classified as afull-time student if enrolled in fewer thannine hours during the semester in whichthe degree will be conferred. If the disser-tation, thesis, report, or creative compo-nent is the only item left to complete theplan of study, the student is designatedas being enrolled full-time upon theapproval of the department head anddean of the Graduate College.2.3 Part-time Students. Students whoare enrolled but not meeting the definitionof full-time students are classified as"part-time." Undergraduate students areclassified as "half-time" if they are en-rolled in six hours in a regular semester(or three hours in a summer session).Graduate students are classified as "half-ti me" if they are enrolled in four hours in aregular semester (or two hours in a sum-mer session). OSU does not use "three-quarter time status" for academic pur-poses.2.4 Special Students. A student whodoes not have immediate plans to enter adegree program but wants to takecourses, may be classified as a "specialstudent." A student on an F-1 visa maynot enroll as a special student since he orshe must be admitted to a degree pro-gram.

b.credit will be recorded with a neutralgrade of "P" (Pass) if the student earnsthe equivalent of a "C" or better on theexamination. No grade is recorded ifthe student fails the exam;

c. the amount of credit by exam whichmay be applied to a degree program issubject only to meeting the residencerequirements of OSU (see "ResidenceRequirements");

d. a native speaker of a foreign language(one whose high-school level instruc-tion was conducted principally in thatlanguage) cannot earn credit towardgraduation in lower-division (1000-2000 level) courses in that language(see "Foreign Language Credit forNative Speakers");

e. the student must need the course tomeet some requirement for a certificateor degree being pursued at OSU;

f. be enrolled at OSU;OSU Advanced Standing Examina-

tions may be offered by academic de-partments on campus in subject areasnot offered through the examination pro-grams listed above. Any currently en-rolled student whose travel, employment,extensive readings or educational experi-ence appear to have given the studentproficiency in a subject that is offered atOSU, equivalent to the proficiency ordi-narily expected of those students whotake the subject in a regular class, mayapply for an examination on the subject.

In addition to the regulations listedabove, to qualify for an OSU AdvancedStanding Examination the student must:g. not have taken an exam over the

course within the preceding sixmonths;

h. receive the recommendation of theOffice of Admissions, the approval ofthe head of the department in whichthe course is offered and the dean ofthe student's college;

i. present a valid student I.D. at the ex-amination.Information and application forms

pertaining to OSU Advanced StandingExaminations may be obtained from theOffice of Admissions.4.7 Validation Examination Credit. Astudent may apply to take a validationexamination for a course taken at aninstitution that OSU does not recognizeas accredited. To qualify for a validationexamination, a student must:a. be enrolled at OSU at the time the

student takes the examination;

b. present the necessary evidence toprove that the student has taken thecourse;

c. obtain the recommendation of theOffice of Admissions and the approvalof the dean and head of the depart-ment in which the course is offered;

d. take the examination within the firstsemester after entering OSU;

e. take only one such examination ineach subject.

f. present a valid student I.D. upon ex-amination.The student obtains the examination

form at the Office of Admissions. Thedean of the college in which the course isoffered appoints a committee of three toconstruct, administer and evaluate theexamination. The result is reported to theOffice of Admissions and the Office of theRegistrar where a "P" grade is recorded ifthe examination result is "C" or better. Nofee is required.4.8 Graduate Credit Hours for a Senior.A senior who is graduating from OSU atthe end of a semester or summer sessionmay take a limited number of courses forgraduate credit during the last two se-mesters or summer sessions. The writtenrequest to receive graduate credit mustbe made before the end of the fifth weekof class instruction of a regular semesteror the second week of a summer session.Such credit may be earned under thefollowing conditions:a. the student must meet the same ad-

mission requirements and be subjectto the same possible probationaryorprovisional restrictions as studentsadmitted in graduate status. The stu-dent must achieve an overall 3.00grade-point average in all courses andmake no less than a "B" in thosecourses for which he or she wantsgraduate credit;

b. the credits must not be required orneeded for the baccalaureate degree;

c. the total registration must not exceed18 credit hours for a semester or ninecredit hours for a summer session;

d. the student must either complete therequirementsfor the baccalaureatedegree at the end of the semester orsummer session or be within 12 se-mester credit hours of completing suchrequirements at the beginning of thesemester or summer session in whichgraduate credit is requested;

e. admission to courses taken for gradu-ate credit must have the approval ofthe course instructor, the head of thedepartment in which the courses areoffered and the dean of the GraduateCollege;

f. not more than 15 semester credithours taken while a senior may be

48 The University

approved for graduate credit, and aminimum of 15 semester credit hoursmust be completed in residence afterthe student registers in the GraduateCollege. Courses taken for graduatecredit during the senior year may notbe accepted for graduate credit atinstitutions other than OSU;the use to be made of the graduatecourses will be determined by theadviser when the student registersin the Graduate College and submits aplan of study for an advanced degree.

4.9 Semester Credit Hour. A semestercredit hour is equivalent to (a) 16 50-minute class sessions (including exami-nations) conducted under the guidanceof a qualified instructor plus 32 hours ofpreparation time, or (b) 16 3-hour labora-tory sessions, or (c) 16 2-hour laboratorysessions plus 16 hours of preparationtime. These same equivalencies apply toextension courses, short courses andother learning formats for which aca-demic credit is awarded.4.10 Foreign Language Credit for Na-tive Speakers. A native speaker of aforeign language cannot enroll in or earncredit toward graduation in lower-division(1000- or 20004evel) courses in thatlanguage. A native speaker of a foreignlanguage is defined as a person whosehigh-school level instruction was con-ducted principally in that language.

Native speakers may occasionallyhave valid reasons for establishingcreditin a lower-division course. Requests forsuch consideration should be directed tothe dean of the student's college forrecommendation to the head of the De-partment of Foreign Languages andLiteratures.

5. Enrollment

5.1 Course Numbering System. Allcourses are identified by numbers com-posed of four digits. The first digit indi-cates the class year in which the subjectis ordinarily taken, although enrollment isnot exclusive as to student classification;-the second and third digits identify thecourse within the field; and the last digitindicates the number of semester credithours the course carries. For example, acourse numbered 1123 should be inter-preted as a freshman, or beginning, levelcourse carrying three hours of credit. Acourse number beginning with zero indi-cates that the course does not carryUniversity credit. A course number end-ing in zero indicates that the coursecarries variable credit.5.2 Maximum Semester Credit HourLoad. All semester credit hours above 19(nine during a summer session) are ex-cessive and require written approval inadvance of enrollment by the student'sadviser and the dean of the college.

Excessive hours will be limited to thenumber of semester credit hours 50percent greater than the number ofweeks in the applicable academic se-mester or summer session.5.3 Adding Courses. Approval of thestudent's academic adviser is requiredfor adding a course. The end of the firstweek of a regular semester or the thirdclass day of a summer session is the lastday a course may be added (nonrestric-tive). A short course may be added nolater than the first day of the short course.With instructor approval, a course maybe added during the second week ofclasses of a regular semester or thefourth or fifth day of a summer session(restrictive).5.4 Dropping Courses. Dropping refersto the dropping of one or more courseswhile remaining enrolled in at least onecourse for a given semester. At any timeprior to the end of the second week of aregular semester or the first week of asummer session, or during the propor-tionate period for block or short courses,a student may drop a course, and norecord of the course will appear on thestudent's academic record.

After the deadline for dropping with norecord, but prior to the end of the sixthweek of a regular semester or the thirdweek of a summer session, or proportion-ate periods for block or short courses, astudent may drop a course and thegrade of "W" (dropped) will be recordedon the student's academic record.

After the sixth week of a regular se-mester or the third week of a summersession but prior to the end of the 10thweek of a regular semester or the fifthweek of a summer session, a studentmay drop a course with the grade of "W'(dropped) or "F" (failing) as assigned bythe instructor. The grade of "W" or "F" willbe recorded on the student's academicrecord and the grade of "F" will be calcu-lated in the grade-point average.

After the 10th week of a regular se-mester, or the fifth week of a summersession, or proportionate periods forblock or short courses, a student may notdrop a course and will be assigned onlythe grade of "A," "B," "C," "D" or "F," or(when appropriate) "I," "NP," "P," ""S," "U,"or "X" by the instructor at the end of thesemester. (Exceptions to this policy maybe allowed by petition due to extraordi-nary circumstances. A petition requiresthe signatures of the student's instructor,adviser and dean with the grade of "W" or"F" assigned by the instructor.)

No course may be dropped withoutthe approval of the student's academicadviser.

A student may not drop any course inwhich a formal charge of academic dis-honesty is pending against the student. If

the student is absolved of the formalcharge, he or she may drop the coursewith either a "W" or "F" (according to thedrop grade policy), appearing on theacademic record. If the student is foundguilty, the instructor may take appropriatedisciplinary action, including assigningthe grade "F" for the assignment or thecourse.5.5 Concurrent Enrollment. A studentwho desires to earn credits concurrentlyat another institution or through corre-spondence, extension, advanced stand-ing examinations, or DANTES (DefenseActivity for Non-traditional EducationSupport) examinations while enrolled forresidence credit at OSU, must secureapproval in advance from his or her deanif he or she expects this institution toaccept those credits. Armed Forcespersonnel will be granted 60 days fromthe date of their first enrollment to estab-li sh, through DANTES examinations,advanced standing in subject matter thatthey mastered while in the Armed Forces.5.6 Prerequisitesto Upper-division andGraduate-division Courses. When noprerequisites are listed for courses num-bered 3000 or 4000, it is understood thatthe prerequisite is 60 credit hours of workcompleted, or 45 credit hours of workcompleted with an overall grade-pointaverage of 3.25. The prerequisite forcourses at the 5000 or 6000 level isgraduate standing in addition to anyother prerequisites listed'. Instructors maywaive prerequisites when the student'sbackground justifies this action. Priorapproval of the instructor may be re-quired in problems courses, independentstudy, internships, thesis and dissertationcourses, and courses taught in a profes-sional school.5.7 Class Enrollment Maxima. Themaximum numbers of students permittedto be enrolled in each section of a courseis determined by the department headand can be increased or decreased onlyby the department head or dean.5.8 Priority Enrollment. Certain groupsof students are extended the option ofenrolling prior to the time continuingstudents begin enrolling. Physicallyhandicapped students are extended theoption of priority enrollment. Those stu-dents actively participating in the Univer-sity Honors Program are extended theoption of priority enrollment. Current OSUstudents who accept University scholar-ships will be given priority in enrolling.Scholarshipsthat qualify students forpriority in turning in trial schedules areUniversity band, athletic, and graduateteaching assistantships for teaching orresearch assignments. Wentz scholars,President's Distinguished Scholars(PDS), President's Leadership Council(PLC) recipients, and participants in theOSRHE Academic Scholars program are

g.


also extended the option of priority enroll-ment. (These are not to be consideredinclusive, but the scholarship must re-quire that the student perform a servicefor the University at a regular time speci -

fied by the University.) Full-time employ-ees of the University who have approvalfor enrollment may turn in their TrialSchedule forms to the Office of the Regis-trar any time after the class schedulebook is available. An effort will be madeto schedule classes of full-time employ-ees to minimize conflict with their Univer-sity employment. Working part-time forthe University or outside the Universitydoes not qualify the student for priority inturning in a trial schedule.5.9 Late Enrollment. A student is permit-ted to enroll during the first week of asemester or through the third day of asummer session or on the first day of asummer short course. A student enrollinglate will pay a late enrollment fee. The lateenrollment fee will not be charged on orprior to the first day of a summer shortcourse.5.10 Payment of Tuition and Fees.Each student is provided an estimate oftheir tuition and fees at the point of regis-tration. All fees (required and optional)and tuition associated with the student'senrollment are due in the Office of theBursar no later than 4:30 p.m. on the 15thday of each month following billing. Fail-ure to receive a bill, which is mailed tothe student's local address or specifiedbilling address, does not relieve thestudent from the financial obligation, anyfinance charges, and other penalties thatmay occur if the account is not paid bythe monthly due date. Fall semester feesare due by September 15, spring semes-ter fees are due by February 15, andsummer session fee due dates vary de-pending on the session. All accounts notpaid in full by the due date will accrue aninterest penalty at the rate of 1.5 percentmonthly (19.56 APR). Accounts must becleared before the student can obtain therelease of any records, obtain a tran-script, receive a diploma; or enroll atOSU for subsequent semesters.5.11 Audit. A student who does not wishto receive credit in a course may, with theapprovals of the student's adviser andthe instructor of the course concerned,attend the class strictly as a visitor. Astudent who applies to audit a coursepromises that he or she will not use theaudit to avoid the rule against excessivehours, and that he or she will not petitionor ask in any way for the privilege oftaking an examination to obtain creditafter he or she has audited the course.The audit form is available in the Office ofthe Registrar. (Laboratory courses, pri- .vate music lessons and art courses arenot open for audit.)

If a student is already enrolled forcredit in a course, but wishes to changeto auditing that course, the student mustofficially drop the course (or, if appropri-ate, withdraw,) at the time the studentchanges to audit.

A student who has established a per-manent record at OSU may have theaudited course recorded on his or hertranscript with "AU" appearing in place ofthe grade. Not later than one week afterthe close of that semester, the studentmust present to the'Office of the Registrarthe instructor's copy of the audit form witha signed statementfrom the instructor, onthe reverse side, that it is appropriate forthe course to be recorded on thestudent's transcript.

Any individual 65 years or older mayaudit a class at no charge.5.12 Minimum Class Size. The minimumnumber of students required in order fora class to meet is as follows: 20 studentsfor lower-division classes, 12 students forupper-division classes, and eight stu-dents for graduate-level classes.

6. Grades and Grading

6.1 Official Transcripts. All official tran-scripts of the student's academic recordat OSU are prepared and released by theOffice of the Registrar. Copies of tran-scripts from other institutions cannot befurnished.6.2 Grade Interpretation.The quality ofstudent performance in all classes isindicated by the following letter grades:"A," "B," "C," "D," "F," "I," "NP," "P," "5," "U,"" W," or "X." Descriptions of the gradesare:

Grade "A" ExcellentGrade "B" GoodGrade "C" AverageGrade "D" Below averageGrade "F" FailureGrade "I." This grade is given to a

student who satisfactorily completed themajority of the course work and whosework averaged "D" or better, but who hasbeen unavoidably prevented from com-pleting the remaining work of the course.The conditions, including appropriateti me limits, for the removal of the "I" areindicated on the official class roll by theinstructor. A condition that the studentmust repeat the course inorder to re-move the "I" is not permitted. The maxi-mum time allowed for a student to re-move an "I" is one calendar year. Thedean of the student's college may rec-ommend to the Office of the Registrar theadjustment of this period in exceptionalcircumstances. It is the responsibilityofthe student to satisfy the requirementsstipulated by the instructor at the time the"I" is assigned; it is the responsibilityof

the instructor to initiate action to have thenew grade entered as soon as possibleafter the student fulfills the requirement.The new grade does not result in thedeletion of the "I" symbol from the tran-script. Upon completion of the courserequirements, a second entry is postedbeside the original "I" on the transcript toshow the final grade for the course. Theincomplete grade which is not removedwithin the allotted period becomes apermanent incomplete.

Grade "NP." This grade is given forunsatisfactorywork (including that evalu-ated as "D") in courses on the pass-nopass grading system. Both credit hoursand grade-points are ignored in calculat-ing grade-point averages.

Grade "P." This grade is given forpassing work in OSU courses approvedfor pass-no pass and pass-fail gradingsystems. Both credit hours and grade-points are ignored in calculating grade-point averages.

Grade "S" or "U." This grade is givenfor satisfactory (equivalent to a "C" orbetter) or unsatisfactorywork in remedialcourses in English, mathematics, read-ing, and science. Both credit hours andgrade points are ignored in calculatinggrade-point averages, and neither gradeis counted in total hours. Effective Fall1995, these courses were CIED 0123,ENGL 0003, 0123, MATH 0123, andUNIV 0111.

Grade "W." This grade indicates thatthe student dropped the course.

Grade "X." This grade is given to astudent in a thesis or dissertation course(5000 or 6000) or a master's degreecreative component course, when coursework is still in progress. It is the responsi-bility of the instructor to initiate action tohave the grade entered as soon as pos-sible after the student completes thecourse work. The new grade does notresult in the deletion of the "X" symbolfrom the transcript, but a second entry isposted beside the original "X" on thetranscript to show the final grade.

Mark of "AU." An "AU" indicates thatthe student audited the course, andrequested that it be recorded on theacademic record. An "AU" is not a gradeand is not used in calculating grade-pointaverages.

Mark of "N." An "N" indicates that at thetime grades were due in the Office of theRegistrar, a final grade was not reportedby the student's instructor. An "N" is not agrade and will be changed to the gradeearned within a reasonable time. It is notused in calculating grade-point aver-ages.6.3 Grade-point System. The followinggrade-point system is used in calculatingthe grade-point average.

5 0 The University

Grade "A" yields 4 grade points per se-mester credit hour.

Grade "B" yields 3 grade points per se-mester credit hour.

Grade "C" yields 2 grade points per se-mester credit hour.

Grade "D" yields 1 grade point per se-mester credit hour.

Grade "F" yields 0 grade points per se-mester credit hour.

6.4 Grade-point Average Calculating. Incalculating grade-point averages, thetotal number of grade points earned isdivided by the total number of hoursattempted. The grade of "I," "NP," "P," "S,""U," "W," "X" or the mark of "AU" or "N" willnot affect the grade-point average.

Semester Grade-point Average. Forpurposes other than retention, all gradesare included in the calculation. For reten-tion purposes, activity, performance andremedial courses are excluded from thecalculation. These courses remain on thetranscript identified with an ampersand(&).

Graduation and Retention Grade-pointAverages. All courses in which a studenthas a recorded grade are included in thecalculation, excluding any courses re-peated (with an original grade of "D" or"F") or reprieved and excluding remedialcourses and physical education activitycourses. (See "Academic Forgiveness.")

Cumulative Grade-pointAverage. Allcourses in which a student has a re-corded grade are included in the calcula-tion.6.5 Freshman Progress Reports. Thefaculty will report grades for all freshmenon the dates as printed in the officialUniversity calendar. The date will nor-mally be Friday of the eighth week ofclasses. Progress reports are madeavailable to freshman students shortlyafter mid-semester. Copies are madeavailable to the students' advisers andthe students' deans.6.6 Pass-No Pass Grading System. Anundergraduate student may elect to takeno more than four courses or 15 hours(whichever is greater) during his or heracademic career with the pass-no passgrading option. The option is restricted tothose students who:a. have passed 28 or more semester

credit hours;b.have at least a 2.50 grade-point aver-

age in all hours attempted;c. have met all of the prerequisitesfor

enrollment in the course in question;d. do not need the course in question for

meeting any requirements for gradua-tion or certification other than as ageneral (unrestricted) elective;

e. have approval of the academic ad-viser.

A student who chooses the pass-nopass option must do so by the last dateon which a course may be added. Oncethe deadline has passed, a student maynot change the choice of grading sys-tems. The pass-no pass option is notidentified on the official class roll andthus is not known to the instructor. Theinstructor assigns a normal grade basedon the quality of the work performed. Thegrades of "A," "B" and "C" are recorded onthe transcript as "P"; the grades of "D"and "F" are recorded as "NP." "W" and "I"grades are recorded without change. Thepass-no pass grade will not affect thegrade-point average.

Graduate students should refer to the"Graduate College" section of the Cata-log.6.7 Pass-Fail Grading System. Somecourses are taught only on a pass-failbasis. Such courses are so designated inthe "Course Listings" section of the Cata-log. Students who pass the course areawarded the grade of "P"; those who failthe course are awarded the grade of "F."

Graduate students should refer to the"Graduate College" section of the Cata-log.6.8 Grade Reports. Reports of thegrades of all students are compiled andreleased shortly after the end of eachsemester by the Office of the Registrar.These reports are made available to thestudents, the students' advisers and thestudents' deans.6.9 Correcting Grades Reported inError. An instructor who reports an incor-rect grade to the Office of the Registrarmay request that Office to correct thegrade. The request must be in writingand must have both the departmenthead's and the dean's approvals. In nocase will a grade be lowered after thestudent has been graduated.6.10 Grade Appeals. A student mayappeal a grade given by an instructor incases in which he or she believes thegrade awarded is inconsistent with an-nounced grading policy. (See "StudentRights and Responsibilities"or contactthe Office of the Provost and Vice-Presi-dent for Academic Affairs.)6.11 Honor Rolls. Full-time Students.Full-time undergraduate students (12 ormore semester credit hours in a regularsemester or six or more in a summersession) who complete all enrolled hourswith a semester (not cumulative) grade-point average of 4.00 (i.e., all "A's") andwith no grade of "I" in any course areplaced on the President's List of Distin-guished Students. The grade of "P," "S" or.' W" or grades earned through correspon-dence may not be included in meetingthe minimum enrollment required orgrade-point average required for anhonor roll. Students who have completed

their courses under the same require-ments as outlined above, with a grade-point average of 3.50 or higher and nograde below "C," are placed on theDean's List of Distinguished Students.(See also "Grade-point Average Calculat-ing.")

Part-time Students. Part-time under-graduate students (11 or fewer semestercredit hours in a regular semester or fiveor fewer in a summer session) who haveaccumulated at least 12 semester credithours of "A" during the most recent con-secutive enrollments at OSU, and whocomplete all enrolled hours with a com-bined grade-point average of 4.00 (i.e.,all "A's") and with no grade of "I" in anycourse, are placed on the President's Listof Distinguished Students. The grade of"P" or "S," or grades earned through cor-respondence may not be included inmeeting the minimum enrollment requiredor grade-point average required for anhonor roll. Dropping a course prohibits apart-time student from being listed on anhonor roll. Special (non-degree-seeking)students are not included on an honorroll. Students who have completed theircourses under the same requirements asoutlined above, with a combined grade-point average of 3.50 or higher and nograde below "C," are placed on theDean's List of Distinguished Students.(See also "Grade-point Average Calculat-ing.")

Once a part-time student is placed onan honor roll, the student must completean additional 12 credit hours, before thestudent is considered again for an honorroll. The student must meet all the abovecriteria at the time of subsequent consid-eration.

(Beginning Spring 1995, and retroac-tive to include Fall 1994, the Dean's Listgrade-point average was 3.50.)6.12 Academic Dishonesty or Miscon-duct. Academic dishonesty or miscon-duct is neither condoned nor tolerated atOklahoma State University. Academicdishonesty is behavior in which a deliber-ately fraudulent misrepresentation isemployed in an attempt to gain unde-served intellectual credit, either for one-self or for another. Academic misconductis behavior that results in intellectualadvantage obtained by violating specificdirections, rules, or accepted academicstandards, but without deliberate intent oruse of fraudulent means. (See also Policyand Procedure Letters.)6.13 Academic Forgiveness (Under-graduates). Repeated Courses. A stu-dent may repeat a course and have onlythe second grade, even if it is lower thanthe first grade, included in the calculationof the graduation and retention grade-point averages up to a maximum of fourcourses but not to exceed 18 credit


hours in which the original grade was a"D" or "F." If a course is repeated morethan once, all grades except the firstattempt are included in the grade-pointaverages. The original course and graderemain on the transcript identified with anasterisk (`). All other repeated courses,those in excess of the 18-hour, four-course maximum and those with a gradeof "C" or better in the original course, areincluded in the grade-point averagesand identified with an "at" sign (©) on thetranscript.

Academic Reprieve. A student mayrequest an academic reprieve for allcourses in one semester or two consecu-tive semesters if the following conditionsare met: (a) at least three years musthave elapsed between the period inwhich the grades being requested re-prieved were earned and the reprieverequest; (b) the student must haveearned a GPA of 2.00 or higher with nograde lower than a "C" in all regularlygraded course work ( a minimum of 12hours) excluding activity, performanceand remedial courses since the semesterrequested to be reprieved; (c) the stu-dent has not previously been granted anacademic reprieve for a semester;(d) there were extenuating circum-stances which caused the student toperform poorly during the semester.

The request for an academic reprievemust be submitted on the appropriateform to the Office of the Executive Vice-President. A faculty committee appointedby that office reviews each request andeither approves or denies a requestbased on whether or not the studentmeets the conditions stated above andthe committee's judgement concerningthe extenuating circumstances reportedby the student. The courses for a semes-ter that is reprieved are excluded fromthe graduation and retention grade-pointaverages and identified with a pound (#)sign on the transcript.

7. Graduation

7.1 Graduation Requirements. Theresponsibilityfor satisfying all require-ments for a degree rests with the student.Advisers, faculty members and adminis-trators offer help to the student in meetingthis responsibility.7.2 Residence Requirements. A mini-mum of one-half of the upper-divisionrequirements in a student's major fieldmust be earned in residence at OSU.(See "College Enrollment Requirement.")Including the last 18 semester credithours the student must have earned atotal of not less than 30 semester credithours at OSU taken in not less than twosemesters, or one semester and onesummer session, or three summer ses-sions. Courses taken as part of a re -

quired internship, such as in medicaltechnology, may not be used in meetingthis requirement. In the College of Busi-ness Administration the last 30 hoursmust be earned in residence.7.3 College Enrollment Requirement. Acandidate for graduation must be en-rolled in the college from which he or shewishes to receive the degree for at leasttwo semesters, or one semester and onesummer session, or three summer ses-sions immediately preceding graduation.For the award of a second baccalaureatedegree, this requirement may be waivedby the dean of the college awarding thesecond degree. (See "Residence Re-quirements" and "Second BaccalaureateDegree.")7.4 Residence Waiver for Certain Pre-medical Students. Students who com-plete at least 94 semester credit hours ina recognized premedical science pro-gram and then transfer to a professionalprogram leading to the doctoral degreeat an accredited professional school ofmedicine, osteopathic medicine, veteri-nary medicine, dentistry or optometry willbe awarded the appropriate baccalaure-ate degree upon the successful comple-tion of 30 semester credit hours in basicmedical science courses applicable tothe OSU major. This option is availableonly to students who have completed allother degree requirements for the majorand have taken at least the last 30 se-mester credit hours of work at OSU priorto transferring to a professional school.(See "Residence Requirements.")7.5 Minimum Hours for Graduation.Each degree program requires a specificminimum number of semester credithours for graduation, as indicated in theCatalog. No degree program shall re-quire fewer than 120 semester credithours for graduation. (By OSRHE policy,these 120 hours are exclusive of physicaleducation activity courses.) No studentshall be permitted to graduate havingcompleted fewer total hours than therequirement specified for that degree. Atleast 40 hours of upper-division coursework shall be required in every baccalau-reate degree program. (By OSRHEpolicy, these 40 hours are exclusive ofphysical education activity courses.)Hours of "S" or "U" earned in remedialcourses may not count toward totalhours.7.6 Grade-point Average for Gradua-tion. A graduation grade-point averageof 2.00 or higher is required for allcourses in which a student has a re-corded grade, excluding any coursesrepeated or reprieved and excludingremedial courses and physical educationactivity courses. (See "Academic Forgive-ness.") This is in addition to the 2.00 orhigher grade-point average required by

the department in the major or minorfields.7.7 Payment of Graduation Fees. Begin-ning Fall 1996, the basic graduation costis included in the records maintenancefee. Information on procedures anddeadlines is given to students at the timethey complete their enrollment.7.8 Requirements for Honors Degrees.The individual colleges have specificrequirements for degrees with honors.Students should consult the office of theiracademic dean for information. (See"Honors Programs" in the Catalog.)7.9 Diploma Application. Each candi-date for graduation shall file a diplomaapplication in the Office of the Registrarwithin two weeks following enrollment in aregular semester or one week in a sum-mer session in which the student wishesto be graduated.7.10 Presence at CommencementExercises. The University will hold oneCommencement exercise each year atthe close of the spring semester. Stu-dents who met the graduation require-ments the preceding fall semester andstudents who plan to meet the graduationrequirements at the close of the followingsummer session are invited and encour-aged to participate in the Commence-ment exercises. Students who plan tomeet requirements during the summersession (whether they are currently en-rolled or not) should contact the Office ofthe Registrar to participate in Com-mencement.

The University encourages all candi-dates for degrees to be present at theCommencement exercises. Attendanceis not compulsory. However, candidateswho cannot be present should notify theOffice of the Registrar of the addresses towhich diplomas can be mailed.7.11 Graduation with Distinction. Be-ginning with the Fall 1997 semester,students who earn an OSU undergradu-ate degree can also earn a level of dis-tinction based upon the final graduation/retention grade-point average. (See also"Grade-point Average Calculating .")Thelevel of distinction added to the diplomaand transcript is:

Graduation/retention Distinctiongrade-point average

3.90 to 4.00 Summa cum laude3.80 to 3.89 Magna cum laude3.70 to 3.79 Cum laude

This grade-point average calculation istwo decimal places only, e.g., 3.69. Inactuality, this GPA may be 3.69785 ifadditional digits were to be added. How-ever, the value used to determine distinc-tion is 3.69 which does not qualify for alevel of distinction.

culturalCommunicationsProfessor and Head James G.

Leising, Ph.D.

Modern agriculture, with its diversityand specialization, requires accuratecommunication between the industry'ssegments and with the general public.Education in agriculture and journalismtrains the agricultural communicationsstudent to provide the necessary commu-nications link.

By majoring in agricultural communica-tions, a student may choose a special-interest area such as advertising, publicrelations, radio and television broadcast-ing, photography, reporting andnewswriting, or research report writing.


Opportunities are also available for thestudent to develop a double-major pro-gram with other departments in the Col-lege of Agricultural Sciences and NaturalResources.

For the graduate with a bachelor'sdegree and a major in agricultural com-munications, career opportunities areabundant in agricultural production, 'industry, and service organizations aswell as with publishing firms, broadcaststations or other media.

AgriculturalEconomicsProfessor and Head Alan D. Barkema,

Ph.D.

The Department of Agricultural Eco-nomics provides professional training atthe undergraduateand graduate level.Agricultural economics is concerned withthe science and art of understanding theeconomic relationships that affect indi-viduals, firms or service agencies inagriculture. Agricultural economics alsoexamines the interrelationshipsbetweenthe agricultural sector and the othersectors of the economy. The coursesplace emphasis on the economic prob-lems associated with producing, pro-cessing, marketing and consuming thegoods and services used by agriculture.

Agricultural economics combinesinstruction in the technical agriculturalsciences with education in the applica-tion of economic and business manage-ment principles and tools. Agriculturaleconomists draw upon the physical andsocial sciences to define, understandand solve economic problems created bythe changing environment in which mod-ern agriculture operates. The Departmentof Agricultural Economics places empha-sis upon the decision-making and prob-lem-solving skills used in the manage-ment of agricultural production and mar-keting firms.

Studies in agricultural economics pre-pare students to excel in many challeng-ing careers. Many agricultural economicsgraduates work to improve food produc-tion and processing throughout theworld. Other graduates work with govern-ment policies that have an impact on thefood and fiber sector. Because ruralcommunities are directly tied to agricul-

ture, some graduates work to help thesecommunities thrive in the ever-changingworld. Graduates also help protect andmaintain our natural resources and theenvironment for the greatest benefit ofsociety. Many graduates take careerpaths removed from the farm.

An undergraduate may elect to spe-cialize in an option in agricultural eco-nomics. The 10 options available to thestudent majoring in agricultural econom-ics are: farm and ranch management,international agricultural marketing, mar-keting and business, natural resourcesand community development, pre-law,pre-veterinary business management,quantitative studies, with three additionaloptions offering double majors in agricul-tural economics and accounting, agricul-tural economics and agricultural educa-tion, agricultural economics and com-puter science. If the student chooses notto specialize, the student may elect theagricultural economics major without aspecial option.

AgribusinessThe Department of Agricultural Eco-

nomics offers the agribusiness major incooperation with the College of BusinessAdministration.Students pursuing thismajor may obtain a B.S. in AgriculturalSciences and Natural Resources, or B.S.in Business Administration. This majorprepares students for decision making inagribusiness firms. Graduates of theagribusiness program work for organiza-tions involved in the production, process-ing, distribution and marketing of food,food products or input used in the pro-duction of food and food products forhuman or animal consumption.

Graduate ProgramsThe department offers graduate work

leading to the Master of Science, theMaster of Agriculture and the Doctor ofPhilosophy degrees. Both thesis andnon-thesis options are available at theM.S. level. Ph.D. students complete ateaching practicum in addition to theresearch thesis as a part of the degreerequirements.

The graduate program stresses devel-opment of superior professional compe-tence, suited to the demands of the mod-ern business, academic, government andresearch environments. Advancedcourses concentrate on economic analy-sis applied to problems of production,distribution and consumption of agricul-tural products. Courses in economictheory, econometrics, mathematicaleconomics, statistics, and computerscience are an integral part of the pro-gram. Problems of agricultural policy,natural resource use and rural area de-velopment and planning are also impor-tant topics. The faculty give direction andindividual-guidance to student researchin marketing, production, management ofagricultural enterprises, price analysis,land and water use and development,

rural developmentand planning, agricul-tural finance, international trade, farmappraisal and agricultural policy. Special-ization is achieved through course elec-tives and research topics. Each studentis guided in the preparation of the pro-gram of study by an advisory committeeto assure that background or prerequisitework and the graduate plan will lead tothe desired depth and breadth of profi-ciency.Admission Requirements. Prerequisitesto advanced training in agricultural eco-nomics are (1) the desire to understandand solve the complex and changingeconomic problems faced by agricultureand rural society, and (2) the desire andability to learn methods of rigorous logicalanalysis. I n addition, differential calculus,three semester hours of statistical meth-ods, and 15 semester hours of agricul-tural economics and economics, includ-ing intermediate micro- and macroeco-nomic theory, constitute a minimumbackground for advanced study in agri-cultural economics. In certain cases, apart of this work can be taken after ad-mission but will not count toward agraduate degree.

Acceptance by an adviser in the de-partment is not required prior to officialadmittance to the departmental graduateprogram.

Animal ScienceProfessor and Head Donald G.

Wagner, Ph.D.The Department of Animal Science

offers professional training at both theundergraduate and graduate levels. Theundergraduate program leads to theBachelor of Science in Agricultural Sci-ences and Natural Resources degree.Graduate studies culminate in the Masterof Science, Master of Agriculture (empha-sis in animal science) or the Doctor ofPhilosophy in nutrition, animal breeding,animal reproduction or food science.

Animal science is concerned with thescience, art and business of the produc-tion of beef cattle, dairy cattle, horses,poultry, sheep and swine. An animalscientist is concerned with the applica-tion of the principles of the biological,physical and social sciences to the prob-lems associated with livestock productionand management.

Animal science is also concerned withthe products of food animals: meat, dairyfoods and eggs. The food industry is oneof the largest and most important indus-tries in the United States. Students cangain expertise in the processing, qualitycontrol and marketing of meat, dairy andpoultry products.

Undergraduate students may elect anoption in the areas of animal biotechnol-ogy, business, food industry, food sci-ence, international, livestock merchandis-ing, pre-veterinary animal science, pro-duction, and ranch operations, or adouble major with agricultural communi-cations or with agricultural education. Inaddition, students have the opportunity toconcentrate their studies on one of theanimal groups (meat animals, dairy,horses or poultry). Internship programsproviding three to six months of off-cam-pus work experience are available in alloptions. Participation in undergraduateclubs (Block and Bridle, Dairy Science,Horsemen's Association or Food Industryclubs) or judging teams (livestock, meat,horses, dairy cattle, or poultry) improvessocial, communication and leadershipskills.

Students interested in veterinary medi-cine may complete the pre-veterinarymedicine requirements at the same timethey are working toward a B.S. degree inanimal science. In addition, pre-vet stu-dents gain valuable insight into the careand management of animals throughoutthe animal science curriculum.

Undergraduate students follow a simi-lar curriculum during the first two yearswhich includes basic courses in thephysical, biological and social sciences,and a series of introductory courses in

agriculture and business. Upper-classstudents take a basic core of advancedanimal science courses including genet-ics, physiology, nutrition or food science.As seniors, students complete a series ofadvanced animal science courses whichare designed to apply knowledge ob-tained in previous courses to. livestock orfood production systems. Every opportu-nity is taken in teaching to utilize theexcellent herds, flocks and processingfacilities owned or operated by the de-partment.

Students completing a degree with amajor in animal science have a widechoice of challenging careers includingownership or management of farms,ranches, feedlots; employment with stateand federal agencies concerned withinspection, grading or regulation; salesand service positions with companiesinvolved with feeds, pharmaceuticalsorother livestock products; opportunities inagricultural extension or teaching; andwork in the processing, distributing andmerchandising of dairy, poultry and meatproducts. Students who earn the master'sor doctorate can look forward to careersin teaching, research or extension withuniversities, the U.S. Department of Agri-culture or private industry.

Graduate Programs

The Department of Animal Scienceoffers graduate work leading to the Mas-ter of Science degree in animal scienceor food science. Research work at theM.S. level is available in the areas ofanimal breeding (genetics), animal nutri-tion, animal physiology or food science(meat or milk products). A Master ofAgriculture degree in the emphasis areaof animal science is also available. Thedepartment offers programs leading tothe Doctor of Philosophy degree in ani-mal breeding and reproduction, animalnutrition, and food science.Prerequisites. Admission to the gradu-ate program requires an undergraduatemajor in animal science, dairy science orpoultry science, or in closely-relatedbiological sciences or biochemistry. Inaddition, students with a major in dairymanufacturing, microbiology, humannutrition, food science, or food technol-ogy can qualify for the program in foodscience. A student enrolling in a degreeprogram must have been accepted by anadviser prior to official admission. In allcases, the student's graduate adviser orcommittee may recognize specific under-graduate deficiencies and require mea-sures to attain proficiency.

Biochemistryand MolecularBiologyProfessor and Head James B. Blair,

Ph.D.Biochemistry, the central scientific

discipline linking the chemical, physicaland biological sciences, exerts a pro-found influence on the progress of medi-cine and agriculture. By applying con-cepts and methods of chemistry andphysics to the fundamental problems ofbiology, biochemists have made greatprogress in their effort to understand thechemistry of living organisms. Majordiscoveries concerning the biochemistryof genetic material provide the tools ofmolecular biology that are essential tocontemporary life sciences research.

Biochemists and molecular biologistsare concerned with living things. Theymust acquire some knowledge of thebiological sciences. Since a biochemist'stools are the physical sciences, he or shemust receive sound education in math-ematics, physics and chemistry.

Challenging positions for well-trainedbiochemists and molecular biologists areavailable in colleges and universities,state and federal laboratories, researchinstitutes, medical centers and in anincreasing number of industrial organiza-tions, particularlythe pharmaceutical andfood industries. Biochemists are involvedwith research on the chemistry of pro-cesses occurring in plants, animals, andvarious microorganisms, and with thediscovery and development of antibiot-ics, vitamins, hormones, enzymes, insec-ticides and molecular genetic tech-niques.

At the undergraduate level a major inbiochemistry and molecular biologyadministered by the Department ofBiochemistry and Molecular Biology isavailable through the College of Agricul-tural Sciences and Natural Resources.The department also offers a B.S. degreein biochemistry through the College ofArts and Sciences. An honors program isavailable. The curriculum provides abroad background in chemistry andbiological science and permits flexibilityin meeting particular interests of thestudent. Courses in biochemistry arebased on general, organic and analyticalchemistry. The biochemistry and molecu-lar biology curriculum provides studentswith sufficient background in the basicsciences of mathematics, physics, chem-istry and biology to meet the needs forgraduate study in most fields of modernscience related to agriculture or medi-cine. The curriculum is excellent for


preprofessional students of medicine,dentistry and veterinary medicine.

Graduate ProgramsBecause many of the opportunities in

biochemistry require advanced coursework, a major part of the program in theDepartment of Biochemistry and Molecu-lar Biology is concerned with its graduateprogram leading to the M.S. or Ph.D.degree. This graduate program is anintegral part of extensive basic researchactivities in the Oklahoma AgriculturalExperiment Station. These research ac-tivities provide opportunities for part-timeemployment of undergraduate majors toimprove their professional competence.Prerequisites. Although the B.S. inchemistry or biochemistry is preferred,students with strong backgrounds inother biological or physical science disci-plines are eligible. Individuals not havingat least eight semester credit hours ineach of organic and physical chemistryand calculus must take appropriate un-dergraduate courses to make up def i-ciencies. The results of the three generalGRE exams (verbal, quantitative, analyti-cal) are required for entrance. An ad-vanced GRE subject matter exam (bio-chemistry, chemistry or biology) is alsorecommended. A cumulative GRE scoreof 1500 is normally required.Degree Requirements.A more detaileddescription of the graduate study pro-gram in biochemistry is available from thedepartment upon request. The require-ments listed below complement the gen-eral graduate requirements described inthe "Graduate College" section of theCatalog. After the first semester, continu-ous attendance and participation in thedepartmental seminar is expected.The Master of Science Degree.

Biosystems andicultural

EngineeringProfessor and Head Billy J. Barfield,

Ph.D., P.E.The School of Biosystems and Agricul-

tural Engineering is administered jointlyby the College of Agricultural Sciencesand Natural Resources and the Collegeof Engineering, Architecture and Tech-nology.

Biosystems engineers are profession-als who create and adapt engineeringknowledge and technologies for theefficient and effective production, pro-cessing, storage, handling and distribu-tion of food, feed, fiber and other biologi-cal products, while at the same timeproviding for a quality environment andpreserving natural resources. Specializa-tion is provided in emphasis areas oroptions of food and bioprocessing, envi-ronment and natural resources, biome-chanical, and general agricultural engi-neering.

Biosystems engineering courses inte-grate the engineering sciences withbiological sciences and teach students todesign solutions to real problems ofsociety. Students work both as individu-als and in teams to solve real world de-sign problems provided by industrialfirms who hire biosystems engineers.

The goal of the biosystems degreeprograms is to- produce graduates whopossess broad-based knowledge, skillsand judgment that prepare them to suc -

ceed in the profession of engineering orin further studies at the graduate level. Toachieve this goal, the specific objectivesli sted below are integrated throughoutthe program.

In the preprofessional portion of thebiosystems engineering program (usuallyequivalent to two years of study) thefocus is on the underlying biological,physical, chemical and mathematicalprinciples of engineering, supplementedby appropriate general educationcourses in English, social sciences andhumanities. Students who demonstrateproficiency in this portion of the programare eligible for admission to the profes-sional school in biosystems engineering.

The professional schbol of biosystemsengineering curriculum (typically twoyears) builds systematically upon thescientific knowledge acquired in thepreprofessional curriculum. In profes-sional school, students have the opportu-nity to focus on the option areas givenabove. Regardless of the option area, thedegree is accredited at the basic level bythe Engineering Accreditation Commis-sion of the Accreditation Board for Engi-neering and Technology under agricul-tural engineering and similarly namedprograms.

Each professional school course buildsupon preceding engineering courses todevelop in the student the ability to iden-tify and solve meaningful engineeringproblems. The course work is specificallysequenced and interrelated to providedesign experience at each level, leadingto progressivelymore complex, open-ended problems. The course work in-cludes sensitizing students to socially-related technical problems and theirresponsibilitiesas engineering profes-sionals to behave ethically and protectoccupational and public safety. Theprogram culminates in senior year designcourses in which students integrate theanalysis, synthesis and other abilitiesthey have developed throughout theearlier portions of their study into acapstone experience. At this point, theyare able to design components, systemsand processes that meet specific re-quirements, including such pertinentsocietal considerations as ethics, safety,environmental impact and aesthetics.The students have also developed anddisplayed the ability to conduct experi-ments essential to specific studies and toanalyze the experimental results anddraw meaningful conclusions.

An integral part of this education con-tinuum from basic science through com-prehensive engineering design are learn-ing experiences that facilitate the stu-dents' abilities to function effectively inboth individual and team environments.Moreover, the program provides every


graduate with adequate learning experi-ences to develop effective written andoral communication skills. State-of-the-artcomputational tools are introduced andused as a part of their problem-solvingexperiences. Finally, the students' experi-ences in solving ever-more-challengingproblems enables them to continue tolearn independently throughout theirprofessional careers.

A wide variety of employment opportu-nities are available for biosystems engi-neers in industry, public service andeducation. Some of these opportunitiesinclude positions in governmental agen-cies, consulting, machinery industry,manufacturing and installation, and elec-tric power management industries.Biosys-tems engineers have careers inforeign countries as well.

Students interested in a degree inbiosystems engineering may initiallyenroll in either the College of AgriculturalSciences and Natural Resources or theCollege of Engineering, Architecture andTechnology. Students who enroll in theCollege of Agricultural Sciences andNatural Resources should request abiosystems engineering adviser andtransfer to the College of Engineering,Architecture and Technology by the endof their first semester.

Graduate ProgramsThe School of Biosystems and Agricul-

tural Engineering offers three programsleading to post-baccalaureatedegrees:Master of Biosystems Engineering, Mas-ter of Science and Doctor of Philosophy.The Master of Biosystems Engineeringprogram places emphasis on design andinternship in engineering experience. TheMaster of Science and Doctor of Philoso-phy degrees emphasize research anddevelopment.

Excellent facilities are available forstudents to explore research and designin bioprocessing and food engineering,physics of plant and animal environ-ments, non-point-source pollution control,hydrology, water resources, water qual-ity, air quality, wind erosion, machinedevelopment for biological systems,microelectronics, intelligent machines forbiological production, irrigation design,and hydraulics.

Research projects are supported bythe Agricultural Experiment Station andby state and federal grants. A welltrained faculty, many of them registeredprofessional engineers with research,consulting and design experience, guidethe graduate students' activities and planprograms to meet students' needs.Graduate students design experimentsand special equipment to conduct theirwork. They are expected to demonstrate,by supporting research or by designs,

the ability to identify a problem, definealternatives, propose a solution, organizea design or an experimental investiga-tion, carry it to completion and report theresults.Admission Requirements. Admission toeither the Master of Science or Doctor ofPhilosophy degree program requiresgraduation from an engineering curricu-lum accredited by the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology.Students without accredited degreesmay be admitted provisionally and maybe required to take additional courses.

Admission to the Master of BiosystemsEngineering degree program is permittedfor students who meet the prerequisitesas stated in the "College of Engineering,Architecture and Technology" section ofthe Catalog, under "Master of Engineer-ing." The departmental graduate commit-tee evaluates the applicant's credentialsto determine equivalency and specifyrequirements to overcome deficiencies.Astudent must be accepted by an adviserin the department prior to official admis-sion to the graduate program.Degree Requirements. A candidate forany of the graduate degrees listed abovefollows an approved plan of study whichmust satisfy at least the minimum Univer-sity requirements for that particular de-gree.

EntomologyProfessor and Head Russell E.

Wright, Ph.D.Entomology is the science and study of

insects and related arthropods such asticks, mites and spiders. This disciplineoffers students opportunities to explorethe diversity of nature through the studyof arthropods. In addition, they may learnabout the sophisticated biological andphysiological phenomena associatedwith these organisms. Discovery of theimportance of arthropods as competitorswith human society for food and fiber is acentral theme in entomology. Arthropodsserve as vectors of human and animaldiseases, biomedical research organ-isms and pollinators. These animals alsoform an intricate part of the food web;regulation of pest populations must bedone in an environmentallysafe manner.

A strong academic background in thephysical and biological sciences is es-sential before enrolling in specializedsubject matter in entomology. Special-ized subject matter includes insect identi-fication, biology, ecology, physiology,biochemistry, population dynamics,medical and veterinary entomology andpest management.

There are many diverse job and careerprospects for graduates. Current under-graduates are preparing for careers inveterinary medicine, medicine, law andgraduate school. Others gain employ-ment with private industry, researchlaboratories, or county, state or federalagencies. Some develop their own busi-nesses as consultants and entrepre-neurs.

Graduate ProgramsThe department offers programs of

study and research leading to the de-grees of Master of Science and Doctor ofPhilosophy. Students making applicationmust be accepted by an adviser andapproved by the departmental graduatecommittee prior to being admitted to theGraduate College.

Each program of study will be underthe direction of an advisory committee.The program will be adapted to theindividual's needs but will comply with alldepartmental and Graduate Collegerequirements. The thesis option for theM.S. requires a minimum of 30 credithours. An oral examination is required ofall candidates and M.S. students are alsorequired to defend publicly. Graduatestudent candidates are required to meetwith their advisory committees every sixmonths for program reports and exami-nations. Doctoral candidates are requiredto present public defenses of their disser-tations and must assist in teaching one ormore courses. Students supported ashalf-time research assistants are ex-pected to be active participants in theresearch projects of their major profes-sors.

EnvironmentalScienceProfessor and Assistant Dean

C. Wesley Holley, Ed.D.The College of Agricultural Sciences

and Natural Resources offers an under-graduate major in environmental science.This program is an interdisciplinarystudyof the biological, chemical, and physicalfactors, coupled with human activities,that affect the environment. Such a sci-ence is designed to improve the currentand future welfare of the human race withenvironmental policies based on soundscientific principles and in accordancewith the true benefits and costs as evalu-ated by an informed society.

Since this major is interdisciplinaryandscience-oriented, the student will takebasic courses in biology, chemistry,


math, physics, statistics, and severalsocial sciences. The student may chooseone of three areas of emphasis (options):water resources, natural resources, orenvironmental policy. Depending on theoption, upper-division course work willinvolve problem-solvingwork in waterand soil quality, economic and socialpolicy, political science, resource man-agement and engineering. The studentwill also be immersed in general educa-tion subjects, including communications,philosophy, ethics and sociology.

A primary goal of this program of studyis to enable graduates to solve environ-mental problems according to a solidscience base and in accordance withsociety's needs. Through successfulcompletion of this major the studentearns the Bachelor of Science in Agricul-tural Sciences and Natural Resources.

The environmental science under-graduate major is directly supported byfaculty from the departments of Agricul-tural Economics, Biosystems and Agricul-tural Engineering, Animal Science, Ento-mology and Plant Pathology, Forestry,Horticulture and Landscape Architecture,and Plant and Soil Sciences. The majorand its students also benefit from workingin and out of the classroom and labora-tory with faculty who are conductingcutting-edge research involving environ-mental problems.

Graduates work in such areas as land-use planning, environmental control,natural resources management, wastedisposal, water and soil quality, andpolicy analysis. Industries associatedwith the extraction, utilization and ma-nipulation of natural resources haveincreased the number of employees withenvironmentaltraining to address regula-tion compliance, litigation, monitoring,public relations and management prac-tices.

Graduates may also work with federal,state and local government agenciesinvolved in regulation, resource manage -

ment and policy development. Gradu-ates, particularlythose who have gone onto earn advanced graduate degrees, findemployment with consulting firms that areinvolved with solving environmental prob-lems. Many graduates go on to graduateschool or pursue a degree from a profes-sional school, such as law or medicine.

ForestryProfessor and Head Edwin L. Miller,

Ph.D.America's forests are an invaluable

renewable natural resource. With properdecisions concerning management,

forests can provide a bounty of uses andvalues for generations to come.

Professional foresters play a vital rolein managing, sustaining and utilizing theforest and its diverse resources: timber,water, wildlife, range forage, recreationand wilderness. Foresters devote effort toprotecting forests from the harmful effectsof fire, disease and insects. Foresterstoday-are problem-solvers using a blendof ecology, technology, economics andsociology to provide benefits and ser-vices desired'by society. Foresters workwith private landowners and city plan-ners, teach and conduct research atuniversities, administer parks and recre-ation areas, manage the business offorest industry, and manage public forestlands.

Graduates may be employed by fed-eral agencies, including the U.S. ForestService, Bureau of Land Management,the Natural Resources ConservationService, the Fish and Wildlife Service,and the Bureau of Indian Affairs. In addi-tion, state, county and municipal govern-ments employ foresters in a variety ofresource management and service posi-tions. Wood-using industries retain forest-ers for land management, land and tim-ber acquisition and harvesting positionsas well as in mill production and adminis-trative work. Foresters work for associa-tions promoting the use of forest productsand in many other public relations jobs.Some foresters are self-employed asconsultants, specializing in timber andland appraisals, management planningand a variety of special services. Recipi-ents of advanced degrees, especially thedoctorate, may conduct industrial re-search or may enter the teaching profes-sion.

The Department of Forestry offers amajor in forestry leading to a Bachelor ofScience in Agricultural Sciences andNatural Resources degree. Considerablebreadth exists in the forestry curriculum,affording the student and faculty adviserthe opportunityto develop a specializedcurriculum focused on a wide array ofnatural resource specialties, such aswater, recreation, range or wildlife. Forthe student with a research career inmind, course work in basic and appliedscience is available. Requirements for aB.S. degree include the successfulcompletion of a nine-week summer campand a total of 140 credit hours of coursework. The summer camp is scheduled tofollow the sophomore year and is heldannually in spectacular forest settings.Past summer camps have been heldacross the U.S. from Maine to Oregon,from Montana to Florida, and even inBrazil. Field forestry skills, forest ecology,and state-of-the-art operations are em-phasized at camp.

The Department of Forestry maintainstwo research stations in southeasternOklahoma in the midst of the OuachitaNational Forest, and industrial timberholdings. Oklahoma has an active andprogressive forest industry with one ofthe most modern highly mechanizedtimber harvesting systems in the world.One of the largest paper mills in thesouthern United States is located in thepine-oak forests of southeastern Okla-homa. Oklahoma forests are also prizedfor their clean water and recreational andwildlife benefits. Field trips to this areacomprise part of the instruction in manyforestry courses.

Horticulture andLandscapeArchitectureProfessor and Head Dale M.

Maronek, Ph.D.Horticulture is the science and art asso-ciated with the culture;- production, pres-ervation and processing of flowers, trees,shrubs, turfgrass, vegetables, fruits andnuts. It also includes the proper environ-mental use and maintenance of plants inthe landscape. Thus, horticulture is in-volved with the production and process-ing of a significant part of the nation'sfood supply and provides a major sourceof the beauty in and around homes, cit-ies, parks, highways, golf courses andother public areas.

Today, horticulture requires highlytrained and capable people to help meetthe food demands of society and to beinvolved in activities that lead to a betterquality of life. The horticulture studentmust have a good understanding of plantbiology and commercial production/maintenance and business practices.

Educational opportunitiesfor study inhorticulture cover a wide variety of plantsand subjects and range from the cellularto the whole plant level. Factors such asnutrition, irrigation, genetics, propagation,control of flowering, and fruit and seedproduction are considered in their rela-tionship to culture, production, harvest-ing, processing and storage. Studentscan prepare themselves for careers inpublic grounds administration (arbore-

tums, parks and zoos), golf course man -

agement, horticulture business, salesand marketing, production, teaching,extension and research.

The training that the student obtains isrelated to the specific area of emphasisthat is chosen. Regardless of one's inter-est, objectives, or area of emphasis, agood knowledge and understanding ofhorticulture is a necessity. A student canreceive a B.S. degree and choose fromthe following two options:

Horticulture provides the training andexpertise for production and preservationof fruits, nuts, vegetables, nursery crops,flower crops, etc. Training can be gen-eral, have a business or science orienta-tion, or be chosen to emphasize a par-ti cular commodity area of horticulture.

Turfmanagement provi des the trainingfor turfgrass production and for manage-ment of turfgrass in golf courses, parks,athletic fields, home landscapes, andalong highways.

After the B.S. degree is completed, aqualified student may choose to pursue agraduate degree, specializing in anyoption. Students from other departmentsmay also choose to pursue a formalacademic minor in horticulture.Landscape architecture as a field dealswith the planning and design or arrange-ment of natural and artificial elements onthe land through preservation of existingnatural and synthetic resources, andthrough application of cultural and scien-tific knowledge.

There are two options in the landscapearea:

Landscape architecture is the study ofdesign of outdoor spaces, with support-ing courses in art, construction, ecology,horticulture and social science in a five-year professional program leading to theaccredited Bachelor of Landscape Archi-tecture (B.L.A.) degree. The B,L.A. de-gree is accredited by the American Soci-ety of Landscape Architects. Typicalemployers include landscape architec-ture firms, architectural engineering firmsand government agencies dealing withland planning, urban planning, parks andrecreation.

In an effort to maintain an effectivebalance between students, faculty, andfacilities, enrollment in the fourth and fifthyears of the program is limited to 15students each. Students will be evaluatedduring their third year by the faculty inorder to select the most qualified candi-dates based upon academic achieve-ment and professional potential. Mini-mum requirements may vary each year;however, a student must have completeda minimum of 60 credit hours.

Landscape contracting i s a four-yearprogram leading to the Bachelor of Sci-ence in Agricultural Sciences and NaturalResources degree. It emphasizes theconstruction and management phases oflandscape development. Course workincludes basic landscape architecturaldesign, construction technology, busi-ness and horticulture. The program iscertified by the Associated LandscapeContractors of America. Graduates areemployed by landscape nurseries, con-tracting companies, design and buildingfirms, and landscape maintenance com -

panies.


study leading to the degrees of Master ofScience in horticulture and Master ofAgriculture with specialization in horticul-

ture, and to the Ph.D. degree in cropscience, environmental science, andplant science, each with a specializationin horticulture.Areas of study includeflower crops, fruit and nut crops, veg-etable crops, ornamental nursery crops,and turf. In addition to commodity-ori-ented specialities, students may empha-size postharvest or stress physiologydisciplines. Applicants should indicatetheir interest area(s). Research opportu-nities range from whole plant production/management studies to fundamentalcellular studies.Prerequisites.Admission requires abachelor's degree in horticulture or arelated field with at least a 3.00 ("B")grade-point average. Students withcourse work deficiencies in fundamentalareas may be required to take remedialcourses to attain proficiency in accor-dance with the advisory committee'sguidance.

Prior to admission to the program, allhorticulture applicants for advanceddegrees must be approved by the gradu-ate committee and a faculty member whowill serve as the adviser. The program ofstudy and research will be directed bythe student's graduate adviser and advi-sory committee.

Plant PathologyProfessor and Head Russell E.

Wright, Ph.D.Plant pathology is a broad discipline

that ranges from basic studies of physi-ological and genetic aspects of plantdiseases to the development of practicalplant disease controls. It encompassesthe science required to understand thecauses of plant diseases as well as theart of preventing or controlling thesediseases. Thus, the plant pathologistmust have knowledgeof plant biology aswell as practical plant culture. Plant pa-thology, as a discipline, is actively in-volved in the newly emerging field ofbiotechnology.

Graduates in plant pathology (Ph.D.-level individuals) commonly find employ-ment as research scientists in universi-ties, the government(U.S. Department ofAgriculture), industry or with variousinternational development agencies.Graduates with the M.S. degree oftenwork as research technicians in indus-tries, universitiesor government laborato-ries or as sales or technical representa-tives in the agrichemical or plant breed-ing industries.

To qualify for graduate study in plantpathology an undergraduate studentshould obtain a solid background in the


basic sciences, especially biology andchemistry, mathematics, English andcommunication skills.

In order to become a fully trained plantpathologist, one or more graduate de-grees in plant pathology are required.The department offers both M.S. andPh.D. programs with opportunitiestospecialize in a wide range of basic orapplied research fields.


study and research leading to the Masterof Science, Master of Agriculture in theemphasis area of plant pathology, andDoctor of Philosophy degrees. Programsare concerned with the cause, develop-ment, and management of plant dis-eases. Research problems are involvedwith on-going projects in the OklahomaAgricultural Experiment Station, whichinclude investigations on disease man-agement (chemical, cultural, biological,and genetic) soil-borne diseases, virol-ogy, phytobacteriology,genetics, host-parasite physiology, and application ofbiotechnology and molecular genetics tobasic plant disease research. Individualprograms can be developed towardbasic research or can be developed toprovide a broad practical background inplant health and pest management.Admission Requirements. It is desirablethat applicants have a strong back-ground in biological or agricultural sci-ences. All requirements of the GraduateCollege must be satisfied by each appli-cant. In addition, applicants for graduateprograms in plant pathology are requiredto take the Graduate Record Examinationand to submit their scores with their ap-plications and transcripts. Approval foradmittance will be determined by thedepartmental screening committee andthe department head. During the firstsemester of enrollment, each student,after council with the department head,will select a faculty adviser. Each gradu-ate program is under the direction of themajor adviser and a selected facultycommittee and is adapted to the needsof the graduate student. There is nograduate credit for courses below the4000 level. Each student will follow aprogram of study and research approvedby his or her committee and, except forthe Master of Agriculture degree, mustsubmit an approved thesis.

Plant and SoilSciencesProfessor and Head Robert L.

Westerman, Ph.D.The Department of Plant and Soil Sci-

ences contains strong programs in thebasic disciplinesof plant breeding andgenetics, biotechnology and physiology,crop production, range science, weedscience, and soil science. The under-graduate major in agronomy includesoptions in agroecosystems, biotechnol-ogy, business, crop science, range man-agement and soil science. Each of theseoptions provides a thorough preparationin the sciences relating to its specializa-tion and permits students of varyingbackgrounds and experiences to attain alevel of preparation commensuratewiththeir capabilities and motivation. Thereare no specific prerequisites.

Modern agricultural production re-quires a highly technical approach toemerging issues in soil and water conser-vation, introduction of genetically engi-neered crops, range land utilization andmanagement, prevention and abatementof agricultural sources of environmentalpollution, use of agricultural chemicals,and land application of biosolids. In thevast field of agribusiness, technicalpreparation in plant and soil sciences isessential in supplying agricultural pro-ducers with up-to-date information, aswell as improved seed, fertilizer, pesti-cides and management systems. Pro-cessing, distribution and marketing offood, fiber and feed crops require anintegration of production technology witheconomics at all levels. Plant and soilscientists are in demand for research andmarketing positions in universities, indus-try and government. Concern for futurefood supplies creates an urgency fortechnological advancement in food pro-duction that cannot be ignored.

A major challenge facing plant and soilscientists is the concern for preservingenvironmental quality while maintainingefficient food production systems. Plantand soil scientists are involved with de-tailed evaluation of the impact of cropand soil management practices on land,water and air resources. Recent con-cerns for environmental quality and foodsafety have created a high demand forprofessional plant and soil scientists toassist farmers in proper utilization ofproduction input such as fertilizers andagricultural chemicals. New technologiesfor precision application of crop produc-tion input using global positioning sys-tems or remote sensing methods arecreating many jobs for plant and soilscientists. Advancements in basic sci-

ence fields such as genetics and mo-lecular biology have created a need forplant and soil scientists to develop newplant varieties using biotechnology. Landapplication of municipal biosolids andanimal wastes requires plant and soilscientists to ensure that proper rates andmethods are used.

Typical careers in plant and soil sci-ences include farm or ranch operation ormanagement; crop consulting; technicalsales and service for seed, fertilizer oragricultural chemical supply companies;federal employment in soil and rangeconservation; research positions as plantand soil scientists, with federal agencies,state experiment stations or private in-dustries; teaching and extension posi-ti ons with colleges and universities; and abroad range of employment or ownershipin retail businesses supplying feed, seed,grain, fertilizers, equipment, agriculturalchemicals and other agricultural suppliesand services.

In addition to a standard plant and soilsciences academic program, study forthe B.S. degree provides a thoroughunderstandingof biological and physicalsciences and communications, withsufficient elective hours to permit flexibil-ity.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Plant and Soil Sci-

ences offers programs of course workand research leading to the Master ofAgriculture in the emphasis area ofagronomy and the Master of Sciencedegree in agronomy. The Doctor of Phi-losophy degree can be attained in cropscience, environmental science, plantscience, and soil science. Specific pro-grams are available in the areas of plantbreeding and molecular biology, biotech-nology, cytogenetics, range manage-ment, forage management, weed sci-ence, crop physiology, soil morphologyand genesis, soil microbiology, soilfertility and plant nutrition, soil physics,soil-water management, soil chemistry,and waste management. Applicantsshould indicate their specific area ofinterest upon application.

The graduate programs of the Depart-ment of Plant and Soil Sciences prepareindividuals for successful careers in avariety of areas, including farming andranching, extension education, agricul-tural business, research, teaching, envi-ronmental sciences, waste management,and all aspects of crop production.Prerequisites.Admission to the gradu-ate program requires a B.S. degree inplant and soil sciences, agronomy or aclosely related field. Applicants shouldhave completed basic courses in plantand soil sciences agronomy, biology,chemistry and mathematics required of


undergraduate majors. Deficiencies infundamental course requirements will bemet by the student with the direction ofthe student's advisory committee. Appli-cants must be accepted by an adviser inthe department prior to official admission.Degree Requirements. Students mustfollow approved plans of study that meetthe minimum University and departmentalrequirements for the respective degreesthey are pursuing.

The Master of Science degree inagronomy may be earned by utilizing oneof two plans:Plan I-Thesis, minimum of 30 credithours of course work, including six credithours of AGRON 5000, master's thesis.Plan II-Formal report (non-thesis), mini-mum of 32 credit hours of course work,including two credit hours of AGRON5000, master's thesis.

Theresponsibilityfor satisfying all require-ments for a degree, and for ensuring thata degree plan has been submitted, restswith the student. Advisers assist studentsin curriculum planning, and students areencouraged to consult fully with theiradvisers and not restrict their visits to theenrollment periods when only brief meet-ings may be possible.

Academic ProgramsUndergraduate Programs. Require-ments for all degree programs and op-tions are detailed in the book Under-graduate Programs and Requirements,available in all Oklahoma colleges andhigh schools. Separate sheets, statingthe requirements for any particular de-gree, may be obtained on request fromthe department or college in which thedegree is offered.Bachelor of Arts (B.A.): art, economics,English, French, geography, German,history, journalism and broadcasting,mathematics, music, philosophy, politicalscience, psychology, Russian languageand literature, sociology, Spanish,speech (communication consultancy),and theater.Bachelor of Science (B. S.): biochemistry,biological sciences, botany, cell andmolecular biology, chemistry, computerscience, economics, geography, geol-ogy, journalism and broadcasting, math-ematics, medical technology, microbiol-ogy, physics, physiology, political sci-ence, premedical science, psychology,sociology, speech (communicationconsultancy), speech pathology, statis-tics, wildlife and fisheries ecology andzoology.


Bachelor of Fine Arts (B. FA.): art(graphic design and studio).Bachelor of Music (B.M.)music (electivestudies in business; performance); musiceducation (instrumental/vocal certifica-tion).Second Bachelor's Degree. To secure asecond bachelor's degree, a studentmust complete a minimum of 30 semes-ter credit hours in addition to those re-quired for the first degree. The numberactually needed depends on what astudent must do to satisfy all the require-ments for the second degree.

A student seeking a second degree inthe College of Arts and Sciences at OSUshould ask his or her second adviser tosubmit a degree plan for the seconddegree, clearly headed "second degree,"and showing how all the requirements ofthe second degree are to be satisfied.The plan should also state the major,date of award and total credit hours of thefirst degree, and indicate those courseswhich represent the minimum of 30 addi-tional hours. The second degree planshould be sent to the College of Arts andSciences Office of Student AcademicServices within two weeks after thestudent's last enrollment.

Students wishing to complete degreesin two different colleges t OSU shouldconsult with each office of student aca-demic services. Concurrent enrollmentin two colleges is possible, but a studentmust be enrolled in a college for at leasttwo semesters before becoming eligiblefor a degree from that college.Second Majors and Minors. A studentmajoring in one field may also completethe specified requirements for a "major"or a "minor" in other fields, the additionalmajors or minors may be noted on thestudent's transcript. Such specified re-quirements may be obtained from thedepartment in which the second major orminor is sought, or from the Office ofStudent Academic Services. The studentshould, at the end of his or her senioryear, ask the adviser in the second majoror minor to submit the request to thedepartment head and then to the Officeof Student Academic Services in theCollege of Arts and Sciences.Graduate Programs. Master ' s degreesare offered in most undergraduate sub-jects, with doctoral degrees available insome. (For details, see the departmentalentries below or consult the "GraduateCollege" section in the Catalog.)

Special AcademicProgramsHonors Program. The Arts and Sci-ences Honors Program is the oldest andlargest program of its kind at Oklahoma

State University. It provides outstandingstudents with the opportunity to study,conduct research, and interact withfaculty and other honors students in avariety of settings designed to assisttalented students who seek to make themost of their educational opportunities.Honors sections of many general educa-tion courses allow participating studentsthe benefits of small classes taught byexperienced members of the faculty, thuscombining the extensive resources of amajor comprehensive university withpersonal faculty attention to each stu-dent. Special honors seminars providecoverage of topical issues each semes-ter in formats that encourage the ex-change of ideas through discussion andwriting. Honors seniors complete therequirements of the Honors Program byundertaking a senior honors thesis (orsimilar creative activity), and honorsseniors also may earn honors credit byenrollment in graduate seminars.

Three Honors Program awards areavailable to A&S students-the GeneralHonors award, the Departmental Honorsaward in the student's major field, andthe Honors Program degree (which isearned by completing both General andDepartmental Honors Program require-ments with a minimum of 39 honorshours with 3.50 OSU and cumulativegrade-point averages). These awardsare reflected on the student's transcript,and a special honors diploma isawarded to students completing therequirements for the Honors Programdegree.

Priority enrollment is provided for stu-dents who are active in the A&S HonorsProgram. This allows honors students toselect honors courses and other coursestaught by outstanding faculty at the earli -est possible date each semester andfacilitates the development of classschedules tailored to the special needsof honors students. Eligibility for admis-sion to the A&S Honors Program as afirst-semesterfreshman is based on(1) an ACT composite score of 27-29with a high school grade-point averageof 3.75 or higher, or (2) an ACT compos-ite score of 30 or higher with a highschool GPA of 3.50 or higher. Later entryis permitted on the basis of OSU andcumulative grade-point averages. Trans-fer students are eligible on the basis ofcumulative grade-point average.Bachelorof UniversityStudies (B.U.S.).The B.U.S. in the College of Arts andSciences allows outstanding studentswith unique educational objectives thatcannot be fulfilled by any of the regulardegree programs to design an individualplan of study fitted to the student's par-ticular needs. B.U.S. plans must be ap-proved by a faculty committee, the Officeof the Dean of the College of Arts and

Sciences, and the Office of the ExecutiveVice-President.At least 45 semesterhours must be completed after the planhas been approved.Area Studies Certificates. Area Studiescertificates allow OSU students to pursuetheir cross-disciplinary interests andreceive recognition for their efforts. AnArea Studies certificate is granted uponsuccessful completion of all require-ments for a bachelor's degree in thestudent's major and the specific require-ments for the certificate.International Studies. Students at OSUare encouraged to add an internationalelement to their education by earning anArea Studies certificate. Certificates areoffered in Asian, Central Asian, LatinAmerican, and Russian and EasternEuropean Studies. To receive a certifi-cate, students must successfully com -

plete five credit hours of second-yearlevel instruction in a language of the areachosen and six upper-division courses(18 credit hours) pertinent to the areachosen.American Studies. OSU students cancomplete Area Studies certificates inAfrican-American, Native American, andWomen's Studies. These programs offeran interdisciplinary curriculum focusingon the topical areas. Each certificaterequires a minimum of 18 hours of ap-proved course work.Ancient and Medieval Studies. To re-ceive an Ancient and Medieval Studiescertificate, students must successfullycomplete (1) a minimum of second se-mester classical or koine Greek, classi-cal or medieval Latin, Anglo-Saxon, ormiddle English; and (2) six upper-division(18 credit hours) approved courses.

Further information on these certificateprograms may be obtained from theOffice of the Arts and Sciences StudentAcademic Services, 202 Life ScienceEast or on the World Wide Web (http://wwvv.okstate.edu/artsci/).Geographic Information Systems Cer-tificate. The Geographic InformationSystems (GIS) certificate provides aspecialized course of study for interestedstudents. The flexible program providesstudents with a theoretical and appliedfoundation concerning the rapidly grow-ing field of GIS. To begin work toward thecertificate, a student must possess abachelor's degree from an accreditedcollege or university, or be working to-ward a bachelor's or higher degree atOklahoma State University. For moreinformation, contact the GIS Certificatecoordinator in the Department of Geogra-phy, 225 Scott Hall.High School Teaching Preparation.Students earning degrees in the Collegeof Arts and Sciences may, by completingcertain courses, receive state licensure


for teaching in the secondary schools.Full details may be obtained from depart-mental advisers or from the Office ofTeacher Education in the College ofEducation.

Students who wish to qualify for teach-ing licensure.should consult as early aspossible with the adviser in their fields ofinterest, and should apply for admissionto teacher education as soon as pos-sible, preferably before the end of theirsophomore year.

It is possible to qualify for teachinglicensure and the bachelor's degreewithin the 127 semester credit hoursrequired for graduation. When it is notpossible, students may meet the require-ments for the degree and then completethe licensure requirements by takingadditional courses.

Full teaching certification is awardedby the State Department of Educationwhen the licensed candidate has suc-cessfully completed a period of teachingin a school system.PreprofessionalPrograms in theHealth Professions. Premedicine,Pre-osteopathic Medicine, Pre-dentistry,and Pre-veterinary Medicine.

The preprofessional curricula for medi-cal doctors, osteopaths, dentists, podia-trists, optometrists and veterinarians havethe same basic core because they mustprepare students for professionalschools whose admission requirementsare almost identical. These include astrong foundation in math, chemistry,physics, and biology, the disciplines onwhich major advances in the health fielddepend. Included also are courses todevelop written and spoken communica-tion skills, which are highly important fora good relationship with patients, thepublic and other professionals.

Beyond this required core,preprofessional students may choosecourses and a major as freely as anyother students in the College of Arts andSciences. Most students concentrate onsome aspect of biology or chemistry, butother subject areas are not only accept-able but welcomed. Medical schoolsencourage study in the social sciencesand humanities that contributes to theunderstanding of human beings in theirentirety-their history and environment,their attitudes and values, their emotions,motivations, interpersonal relationshipsand cultural heritage. All of these mayaffect sickness and health.

Although most students entering aprofessional school in one of the abovefields have a bachelor's degree, it ispossible to apply for admission afterthree years of college work (two years fora few dental and veterinary schools).OSU permits preprofessional (health-related) students to choose between two

alternative bachelor's degree programs:(1) in a specific discipline that requires aminimum of 127 semester credit hours atOSU, or (2) a premedical science degreeprogram which allows a "3 plus 1" ap-proach, requiring at least 97 semestercredit hours at OSU and up to 30 hours tobe transferred from a medical, osteo-pathic, dental or veterinary school.

Some professional schools do notstate a firm minimum grade-point aver-age for admission, but a student shouldmaintain better than a 3.00 grade-pointaverage to be competitive. The specificadmission,requirements of medical,dental and veterinary schools are com-piled in catalogs available in the officesof each preprofessional adviser and inthe Office of Student Academic Services.The OSU premedical and pre-veterinarycourse requirements are listed in the"College of Veterinary Medicine" and"College of Osteopathic Medicine" sec-tions of the Catalog.

All applicants for medical schoolsmust take the Medical College Admis-sions Test (MCAT), dental applicantsmust take the Dental Admission Test(DAT), and optometry applicants musttake the Optometry Admissions Test( OAT) prior to admission. The OSU Col-lege of Veterinary Medicine requires theGeneral Test and the Advanced BiologyTest of the Graduate Record Examination(GRE) taken within the previous fouryears.Allied Health Professions. The alliedhealth professions for which one canprepare at Oklahoma State Universityinclude athletic training, dental hygiene,nursing, occupational therapy, phar-macy, physical therapy, physician'sassociate, and radiologic technology.Each of these programs requires that thefinal phase of the education and degreeprogram (usually two to three years) becompleted elsewhere in a professionalprogram. The College of Arts and Sci-ences offers the general education andbasic science courses which one mustcomplete before he or she can be ac-cepted into a professional program.Students whose goal is admission to aprofessional-program in the allied healthprofessions should consult with thecounselor-coordinatorof health profes-sions advising for information regardingthe specific requirements of particularprograms and schools.Medical Technology: See "DepartmentofMicrobiology and Molecular Genetics."Pre-law Preparation. Law schools haveno single preference for a specific un-dergraduate major. Admission to lawschool is primarily based upon a strongrecord achieved in a rigorous under-graduate program and a competitivescore on the Law School Admission Test

(LSAT). Other admission considerationsinclude ,course of study and difficulty ofcurriculum, college activities, andapplicant's motivation and personality asrevealed in a letter of application.

Law school admissions officers mostfrequently recommend that studentsinclude in their undergraduate programscourses in economics, literature andlanguages, psychology, history andgovernment, mathematics, logic, philoso-phy, accounting and speech. Courses inthese areas are especially helpful as oneseeks to develop the verbal and analyti-cal abilities that are particularly criticalfor success in law school.

Personal assistance in selecting anacademic major, planning a solid pre-law curriculum, preparing and register-ing for the Law School Admissions Test,and applying to law school, is availablethrough the pre-law adviser in the Officeof Student Academic Services.

Graduation RequirementsGeneral Education Requirements. TheGeneral Education Requirements for thedegrees offered by the College areshown for each program in Undergradu-ate Programs and Requirements. At least40 credit hours of General Education arerequired for all degrees.

All degrees include a common core of12 credit hours. Three credit hours ofAmerican history and three hours ofAmerican government are required.These must be satisfied by HIST 1103,1483 or 1493, and POLSC 1113.

One course which fostersunderstandingof, or the ability to com-municate with, peoples and cultures ofother countries. Courses satisfying thisrequirement are designated "I" in theCatalog and a list is available from anyadviser or from the Office of the Dean ofArts and Sciences.Scientific Investigation Requirement (alldegrees). One course including an in-vestigative laboratory that provides ex-perience with scientific method. Coursessatisfying this requirement are desig-nated "L" in the Catalog and a list is avail-able from any adviser or from the Officeof the Dean of Arts and Sciences.

The Non-Western, International Di-mension, and Scientific Investigationrequirements may be satisfied bycourses used also to satisfy any otherpart of a student's degree program (i.e.,in General Education, College, Major, orElectives requirements). No additionalhours are required.Additional College Requirements. For alldegrees, six hours of general educationdesignated courses (excluding coursesin the major prefix) are to be taken at the3000 level or above.

Major Requirements. At least 40 semes-ter credit hours as specified by the de-partment, including courses in the majorand in supporting fields, must be com-pleted. These 40 hours constitute thestudent's Major Requirements.Upper-division Credit.A student mustsuccessfully complete at least 50 semes-ter hours of upper-division credit, i.e.credit in courses at the 3000 or 4000level.Hours in One Prefix. If a student seekinga B.A. or B.S. degree takes more than 48semester credit hours in one subject,including both lower-division and upper-division credit, the hours in excess of 48will be added to the minimum total of 127hours required by the College for abachelor's degree.

This "48 hour maximum" applies to allcourses taken in a subject, whether theyare required or elective, with the excep-tion of required courses in English com-position and American history and gov-ernment.Total Semester Credit Hours andGrade-point Average. The minimumnumber of semester credit hours forgraduation is 127. The minimum grade-point average is 2.00 and must beearned in all major courses, in MajorRequirements, and in all courses appliedtoward the degree. A minimum cumula-tive grade-point average of 2.00, ascalculated for graduation purposes, isalso required. (See "University AcademicRegulations" in the Catalog.)

Particular degree programs mayspecify higher grade-point requirementsor exceed the 127 hours total. Details aregiven in Undergraduate Programs andRequirements.Native Speaker Policy. It is the policy ofthe College of Arts and Sciences thatnative speakers of any foreign language(those whose language of instruction inhigh school was the language in ques-tion) may not normally be permitted toenroll in or establish credit in courses inthat language at the 1000 or 2000 level.There are no restrictions on higher levelcourses. Exceptions necessitated bydegree requirements may be determinedby interview with the head of the Depart-ment of Foreign Languages and Litera-tures and the appropriate languagesection chairman.Endorsement of Student's Plan (Grad-uation Check). Immediately after theirlast enrollment, and before their lastsemester, students should check withtheir advisers to ascertain that a degreeplan has been sent to the Arts and Sci-ences Office of Student Academic Ser-vices.Changes in Degree Plan. Once a de-gree plan has been submitted, a student

will not graduate until all requirements onit have been fulfilled. Any deviation in theplan must be recommended by the ad-viser on a "Change in Plan of Study" card,and sent to the Arts and Sciences Officeof Student Academic Services for ap-proval.Checklist of Graduation Requirements.1.

ArtAssociate Professor and Head Nancy

B. Wilkinson, Ph.D.

The Department of Art providescourses for students interested in: (1) astrong general education background,(2) major concentrations in studio art,graphic design and art history, (3) minorsin all three areas.

Two degrees are offered in art: Bach-elor of Art (B.A.) with options in art historyand studio art, that can be combined withteacher certification; and the Bachelor ofFine Arts (B.F.A.), a professional degreewith options in studio art or graphic de-sign. Fields of concentration are avail-able in drawing, oil and watercolor paint-ing, printmaking, graphic design, ceram-ics, jewelry/metalsmithing,sculpture andart history.

Art majors must attain a grade-pointaverage of 2.50 in art courses in order toqualify for licensure and graduation.Because of a large endowment, thedepartment is able to offer substantialscholarships at all levels, freshmanthrough senior.

The Department of Art maintains anexhibition gallery, the Gardiner Art Gal-lery in the Bartlett Center for the StudioArts, with approximately 200 linear feet ofexhibition space and 2600 square feet of

floor space. Works by artists of nationaland international reputation, faculty andstudent works and cultural artifacts areshown.

Biochemistryand MolecularBiologyProfessor and Head James B. Blair,

Ph.D.Biochemistry, the central scientific

discipline linking the chemical, physicaland biological sciences, exerts a pro-found influence on the progress of medi-cine and agriculture. By applying con-cepts and methods of chemistry andphysics to the fundamental problems ofbiology, biochemists have made greatprogress in their effort to understand thechemistry of living organisms. Majordiscoveries concerning the biochemistryof genetic material provide the tools ofmolecular biology that are essential tocontemporary life sciences research.

Biochemists and molecular biologistsare concerned with living things. Theymust acquire some knowledge of thebiological sciences. Since abiochemist's tools are the physical sci-ences, he or she must receive soundeducation in mathematics, physics andchemistry.

Challenging positions for well-trainedbiochemists and molecular biologists areavailable in colleges and universities,state and federal laboratories, researchinstitutes, medical centers and in anincreasing number of industrial organiza-tions, particularlythe pharmaceuticaland food industries. Biochemists areinvolved with research on the chemistryof processes occurring in plants, ani-mals, and various microorganisms, andwith the discovery and development ofantibiotics, vitamins, hormones, en-zymes, insecticides and molecular ge-netic techniques.

At the undergraduate level a major inbiochemistry and molecular biologyadministered by the Department ofBiochemistry and Molecular Biology isavailable through the College of Agricul-tural Sciences and Natural Resources.The department also offers a B.S. degreein biochemistrythrough the College ofArts and Sciences. An honors program isavailable. The curriculum provides abroad background in chemistry andbiological science and permits flexibilityin meeting particular interests of thestudent. Courses in biochemistry arebased on general, organic and analytical


chemistry. The biochemistry and mo-lecular biology curriculum providesstudents with sufficient background inthe basic sciences of mathematics,physics, chemistry and biology to meetthe needs for graduate study in mostfields of modern science related to agri-culture or medicine. The curriculum isexcellent for preprofessional students ofmedicine, dentistry and veterinary medi-cine.

Graduate ProgramsBecause many of the opportunities in

biochemistry require advanced coursework, a major part of the program in theDepartment of Biochemistry and Molecu-lar Biology is concerned with its gradu-ate program leading to the M.S. or Ph.D.degree. This graduate program is anintegral part of extensive basic researchactivities in the Oklahoma AgriculturalExperiment Station. These researchactivities provide opportunities for part-time employment of undergraduate ma-jors to improve their professional compe-tence.Prerequisites. Although the B.S. inchemistry or biochemistry is preferred,students with strong backgrounds inother biological or physical sciencedisciplines are eligible. Individuals nothaving at least eight semester credithours in each of organic and physicalchemistry and calculus must take appro-priate undergraduate courses to makeup deficiencies. The results of the threegeneral GRE exams (verbal, quantitative,analytical) are required for entrance. Anadvanced GRE subject matter exam(biochemistry, chemistry or biology) isalso recommended. A cumulative GREscore of 1500 is normally required.Degree Requirements.A more detaileddescription of the graduate study pro-gram in biochemistry is available fromthe department upon request. The re-quirements listed below complement thegeneral graduate requirements de-scribed in the "Graduate College" sectionof the Catalog. After the first semester,continuous attendance and participationin the departmental seminar is expected.The Master of Science Degree. Twenty-four credit hours of formal graduatecourses are required, including BIOCH5753 (or 4113), 5853, and 5930. In addi -ti on, a student must present an accept-able research thesis (six hours) and passa final oral examination covering it andrelated material. Research advisers areselected at the end of the first semester.

A non-thesis Master of Science degreeis also available. It does not require aresearch thesis, but requires a report andextensive technical training in the labora-tory. The non-thesis M.S. is not recom-

mended for students wishing to pursue aPh.D. program later.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Thecourse requirements are determined withthe aid of the student's graduate advisorycommittee. Usually they follow theseguidelines: total of 30-40 credit hours offormal graduate course work whichincludes all the courses listed for the M.S.degree, at least four of the advancedgraduate courses in biochemistry (6000level) and two offerings of Special Topics(6820). Additional course requirements,appropriate to the student's interests, aredetermined by the advisory committee.The advisory committee is selected atthe end of the second semester. Eachstudent will take a series of cumulativeexaminations beginning in September ofhis or her first year. A more comprehen-sive qualifying examination is also given,usually at the end of the fourth semesterof graduate study.

One year of a foreign language at thecollege level is required. The studentmust present, and defend in a final oralexamination, an acceptable researchthesis which contains a substantial origi-nal contribution to the fielctof biochemis-try. The department offers research expe-rience in a variety of areas of biochemis-try.

BotanyProfessor and Head James D. Ownby,

Ph.D.

Botany is the science concerned withall facets of plant life. Green plants arethe constantly renewable source of foodand fiber, and it is important that they bethoroughly understood as survival andecological balance depend upon thisknowledge. As populations increase, theneed for more and better supplies of foodand fiber also increases. The study ofbotany underlies several applied sci-ences such as agronomy, forestry, horti-culture, plant pathology, range, lake andwildlife management.

To major in botany a student shouldhave a strong interest in science with agood background in chemistry, physicsand mathematics. Majors with a B.S.degree may qualify for secondary schoolscience teaching licensure, for technicalpositions with the federal and state gov-ernments in plant inspection and plantintroduction work, for plant breedingprograms, and for various activities con-cerned with plants in private industry,such as plant biotechnology.

Facilities used in undergraduateteaching include well-equipped plantstructure-function and ecology laborato-

ries, constant-environment chambers,the 160-acre McPherson Preserve. andherbarium with over 125,000 plant speci-mens. All of the faculty teach and doresearch in their specialty areas ofbotany: plant ecology, physiology, tax-onomy, anatomy, developmental genet-ics, algal ecology, and molecular biol-ogy.

Graduate ProgramsPrograms of research and study lead-

ing to the degrees of Master of Scienceand Doctor of Philosophy are offered inmany areas of botany, including plantcell biology, ecology, physiology, tax-onomy, population biology, genetics anddevelopment, and biotechnology-relatedareas such as tissue culture.Prerequisites. Applicants for admissionmust have received a baccalaureatedegree from an accredited college andshould have had 40 semester hours (orequivalent) in upper-division courses inthe biological and physical sciences. Agrade-point average of 3.00 (on a 4.00scale) or above is required for uncondi-tional admission. All applicants are re-quired to submit scores for the Aptitudeand Advanced Biology portions of theGraduate Record Examination.

Prerequisitesfor graduate degreesinclude successful completion ofcourses in the areas of plant taxonomy orfield botany, plant anatomy, plant pathol-ogy or microbiology, plant physiology;genetics and ecology. Chemistry throughorganic and mathematics through calcu-lus are also required. Students with anundergraduate major in plant sciencewill have completed a substantial portionof this minimal list upon matriculation;those with a less closely related majormay be required to take some back-ground courses without graduate credit.Final authority for each student's plan ofstudy, including courses to be taken atthe undergraduate level, resides with thestudent's advisory committee.

A potential graduate student may berequired to take one or more advisoryexaminations covering the various sub-ject matter areas of botany. The exami-nations to be taken will be determined bythe student's screening or advisory com-mittee. The results will be used to deter-mine course work needed or the level atwhich the student should proceed.

Demonstrated research competencethrough submission and acceptance of athesis or dissertation is required for allgraduate degrees. A minimum of onesemester teaching experience is re-quired of all M.S. and Ph.D. candidates.This requirement may be satisfied byenrollment in a college teachingpracticum course (GRAD 5990) or by


one semester teaching experience. Therequirement for competence in a foreignlanguage will be determined by thestudent's advisory committee.

All graduate students are expectedto attend and participate in departmentalseminars.The Master of Science Degree. Plans ofstudy must contain 30 credit hours in-cluding at least 21 semester credit hoursnumbered 5000 or above, six credithours of thesis and two credit hours ofseminar. A minimum of 16 semestercredit hours must be in the major depart-ment or field, above the prerequisitesrequired for entrance into the M.S. pro-gram.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree inPlant Science. The Department ofBotany is one of seven departmentsparticipating in the multidisciplinaryPh.D.in plant science program. Students in thisprogram have great flexibility in researchand course work. The student whochooses botany as a home departmenthas a botany faculty adviser from withinthe department, and will take BOT 6000research hours in the department. Toreceive the Ph.D. in plant science, stu-dents must enroll in a total of 90 credithours beyond the B.S. or 60 credit hoursbeyond the M.S. No fewer than 36 normore than 60 hours of BOT 6000 areallowed in the plan of study. Two hours ofseminar (BOT 5850) must also be in-cluded in the plan of study. Students maychoose as a specialization area eithercellular and molecular, organismal, orecological plant science. After a Ph.D.candidate has completed most of thecourse work, qualifying examinations arescheduled. These exams cover majorareas of the student's plan of study; allrelevant subdivisions of plant scienceare included. The examinations are bothwritten and oral.

ChemistryProfessor and Head Neil Purdie, Ph.D.

Chemistry is the science that dealswith the composition, structure and inter-actions of matter of all kinds. Materialsobtained from the earth, such as ores,petroleum and natural gas, as well asthose from plants and animals, such asfood, fibers and antibiotics, are all stud-ied and modified through chemicalmeans. The chemist creates from naturalproducts new and useful substances thatadd to the enjoyment of life. He or shecreates new agents to combat pests thatdestroy great portions of food suppliesand new drugs to fight diseases of manykinds. Chemists lead the fight against

pollution of the environment that resultsfrom rapid multiplication of populationand of use of energy. Chemists are at theforefront of the search for new energysources and for ways to better use exist-ing sources of energy.

A great curiosity concerning the physi-cal world should be characteristic of onewho is considering chemistry as a pro-fession. The student should want to learnmore about the changes of materials andto use his or her knowledge for the better-ment of life. The student should have aninterest in physics and mathematics,since those subjects' principles arebasic to the study of chemistry.

Chemists are employed by most largecompanies in this country, especiallythose that produce foods, medicines,fuels and materials. These chemists workin the areas of research, sales and qual-ity control. Many chemists becometeachers in public schools or colleges.State and federal agencies employchemists for research and analysis.Generally an M.S. or Ph.D. degree isdesirable for those interested in researchor college teaching.

The Department of Chemistry offerstwo bachelor's degrees: (1) a B.S. de-gree that is accredited by the AmericanChemical Society; and (2) a B.S. degreethat requires less specialization.

The chemical laboratories are modernand well-equippedwith instruments fordetermination of properties of chemicalsand studies of reactions. Individual labo-ratory work is encouraged.

Graduate Programs

Prerequisites. The student should haveat least eight semester credit hours (orthe equivalent) in general, analytical,organic, and physical chemistry. Thephysical chemistry should have beenbased on mathematics through calculus.

A beginning graduate student musttake diagnostic examinations coveringone year of undergraduate study in ana-lytical, organic, inorganic and physicalchemistry before the student enrolls forthe first time. If the student fails to passone of these examinations, he or she willbe required to take the appropriatecourses without graduate credit at thefirst opportunity. No graduate credit maybe earned for chemistry courses num-bered below 4000. The student mayenroll in graduate courses for which thestudent has passed the entrance exami-nation.Admission Requirements. Admissionrequirements are minimal. For admissionwithout qualification a grade-point aver-age of 3.00 or better is required. Deserv-ing applicants with grade-point averagesless than 3.00 are infrequently admitted

under probationary conditions. Addi-tional support of the application is soughtin the form of three letters of recommen-dation. Graduate Record Examinationscores are not used as a criterion foradmission. Recommendations on admis-sion to the Graduate College are madeon behalf of the applicant by the depart-mental admission officer. Acceptance bya permanent adviser is not a prerequisiteto admission to the program.Degree Requirements. A more detaileddescription of the graduate study pro-gram in chemistry is available in a bro-chure which will be supplied by thedepartment upon request. The require-ments set forth below complement thegeneral requirements stated in the"Graduate College" section of the Cata-log.

Attendance and participation in thedepartmental colloquium and CHEM5011 and 6011 are required.The Master of Science Degree. Stu-dents must complete at least 30 credithours of graduate course work in chem-istry or related fields.

Each student must present an accept-able thesis dealing with a research prob-lem and pass a final oral examinationcovering it and related material. Re-search on the thesis problem should bestarted as early as possible in the gradu-ate program.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Workis offered which leads to the degree withspecialization in analytical, inorganic,organic or physical chemistry. A major inbiological chemistry is offered by theDepartment of Biochemistry. The studentmust pass a qualifying examination in thestudent's field of specialization.

An acceptable dissertation must bepresented which contains a substantialoriginal contribution to the field of chem-istry. The student must pass a final oralexamination covering the dissertationand related material.

The Doctor of Philosophy degree re-quires the completion of at least 90 se-mester credit hours of work beyond thebachelor's degree.

The course requirements are deter-mined by an advisory committee which isappointed for each student.


CommunicationSciences andDisordersAssociate Prof essor and Head Arthur

L. Pentz, Jr., Ph.D.

The Department of CommunicationSciences and Disorders prepares stu-dents through the master's level to serveindividuals of all ages who exhibitspeech, language, cognitive and/orhearing disorders. The undergraduateprogram emphasizes the study of thedevelopment and functioning of theindividual who presents normal speech,language and hearing. It also stressesacademic course work and clinicalobservation experiences in the nature,symptoms and treatment of those withvarious kinds of communication disor-ders. Acceptance into the undergraduateprogram is considered on a grade-pointaverage for 36 or more hours attempted.

The master's program is designed toprovide students with intensive coursework in the various communication disor-ders and a wide variety of challengingclinical activities. These include off-campus clinical practica which serve asan excellent transition from on-campuspracticum to an actual professionalposition after graduation. Students whograduate from this program are preparedto take positions in public schools, hospi-tals, community speech and hearingcenters, private practices and otherrelated settings, or pursue additionalgraduate education at the Ph.D. level. Allgraduates meet the academic andpracticum requirements for theCertificate of Clinical Competence inSpeech-Language Pathology from theAmerican Speech-Language-HearingAssociation. In addition, most studentselect to earn the state teaching certifi-cate. The program is nationally accred-ited in speech-language pathology bythe Council on Academic Accreditationof the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association.

Graduate ProgramsPrerequisites.Other than the generalrequirements of the Graduate College,no other prerequisites are required forapplication to the graduate program. Theamount of course work taken at the un-dergraduate level in communicationsciences and disorders and relatedareas will determine the amount of timerequired for the degree. Students holdingundergraduate degrees in other fieldsare encouraged to apply for admission.Undergraduate prerequisites will add

approximately 37 credit hours to theprogram.Admission Requirements.Applicantsshould have a minimum grade-pointaverage of 3.00 ("B") in all work and atleast a 3.00 in the major, strong letters ofrecommendation from those familiar withthe student's previous academic back-ground, and GRE scores acceptable tothe Graduate Faculty. Interviews areconducted prior to admission. Studentswith a baccalaureate degree are re-quired to be admitted to a graduate de-gree program to take course work in thisdepartment. Admission is competitiveand varies according to the number ofplaces available in the program. Applica-tion deadlines can be obtained from thedepartment.

International students follow the sameapplication procedure as U.S. studentswith one addition. If English is not thestudent's native language he or she isrequired to score a minimum of 550 onthe Test of English as a Foreign Lan-guage (TOEFL) and a minimum of 60 onthe Test of Spoken English (TSE). It isespecially important that students havereadily intelligible spoken English, be-cause they will be conducting therapysessions in English. The InternationalStudent Services Office is available oncampus to assist international students.Financial Aid. All students are eligible toapply for graduate assistantships and feewaiver scholarships. Graduate assistant-ships qualify out-of-state students andinternational students for in-state tuition.Program Requirements. The programleading to the Master of Arts provides athorough exposure to the nature andcauses of communication disorders andto clinical procedures. Clinical trainingoccurs in the OSU Speech-Language-Hearing Clinic and in off-campus facili-ties including clinics, schools, adult daycare and residential programs, and inacute care and rehabilitation hospitals.Research and independent study oppor-tunities are also available.

The degree consists of a minimum of26 semester credit hours in courses thatexamine the nature, causes, assess-ment, and treatment of communicationdisorders and related areas, and a mini-mum of nine semester credit hours inclinical practicum courses. All studentsenroll in a core curriculum of 16 hours.To complete degree requirements, stu-dents may choose from a variety ofcourses that provide additional study inparticular clinical areas.Examinations. Students may complete amaster's thesis or pass a comprehensiveexamination and complete a portfolio.

ComputerScienceAssociate Professorand Head Blayne

E. Mayfield, Ph.D.

Computer science is concerned withtheoretical and practical methods ofstoring, processing and communicatinginformation by means of computers.Professional computer scientists obtain aformal education through the B.S., M.S. orPh.D. degrees and apply their knowledgeto many diversified fields of science,engineering, business and communica-tions. Computer science offers opportu-nities to both specialists and generalists.

In little more than three human genera-tions, the computing field has evolvedfrom one associated primarily with engi-neering and scientific calculations ofonly casual interest to the layperson, to afactor of significant influence in almostevery aspect of modern life. Technicalcareers in computer architecture andsoftware design, as well as applicationsin the business and scientific areas,require a thorough knowledge of theprinciples of computer science. In addi-tion, most managers in any field requiresome familiarity with computers, not onlyto be able to understand them, but also toincorporate them into their own decision-making processes.

The department offers the full range ofdegree programs-B.S.,M.S. and Ph.D.For individuals interested in teachingcomputer science at a two-or four-yearinstitution, an Ed.D. program is also avail-able.

Most B.S. and M.S. graduates obtainpositions in industry. Approximately halfof the Ph.D. graduates take universityteaching and research positions and halfare employed in industry.

Computing facilities available includethe University Computing and Informa-

tion Services computers, an IBM 9672-R32ES, a VAX, and a DEC 5000-240RISC. The Department of Computer Sci-ence has a Sequent Symmetry S82 UNIXbased computer. There are also severalNCD X-Terminals with windowing graph-ics displays that are available to gradu-ate students. There is also a specialprojects room for graduate students.

Computers can be accessed throughthe Computing and Information ServicesNetwork. There are a number of personalcomputer labs located in various build-ings on campus. Some of the residencehalls have personal computer labs avail-able. All of these labs have access topersonal computer application softwareand all mainframe computers on cam-pus, as well as Internet access. Both the


University and the department's comput-ers can be accessed 24 hours a day.

The department participates in theCSNET and USENIX networks for com-puter science research and UNIX users.(UNIX is a trademark of Bell Laborato-ries.)

Graduate ProgramsThe departmentoffers degree pro-

grams leading to the Master of Sciencedegree, the Doctor of Education degreein higher education, and to the Doctor ofPhilosophy degree. These programs aredesigned to prepare an individual topursue a career in either an academic oran industrial setting. In addition to takinga prescribed set of core courses, a stu-dent must take sufficient courses in onespecialized area. In addition to coursework, a student must complete either athesis, report or creative component foran M.S. degree. A student must completea dissertation in addition to course workfor a Ph.D. degree.

The core course requirement assuresthe student of breadth of knowledge incomputer science; the freedom tochoose an area and additional researchassures the student of enough depth insome facets of computer science to beable to carry out independent investiga-tions in those areas and put conceptsand ideas learned to practical use.

For a master's degree, 30 hours ofgraduate credit, including a six-credit-hour thesis, are required. A master'sdegree student is required to pass anoral examination over the thesis. There isno foreign language requirement for theM .S.

A nonthesis option is also available forthe M.S. degree. The student takes 36hours of courses, completes a creativecomponent and passes the Ph.D. Prelimi-nary Examination.

For an Ed.D. or a Ph.D., 60 credit hoursbeyond a master's degree or 90 hoursbeyond a bachelor's degree are re-quired. A dissertation of no more than 30hours is required. The Ph.D. dissertationmust describe original research whilethe Ed.D. dissertation may be expository.Ed.D. and Ph.D. students must pass (atan appropriate level) written preliminaryexaminations in areas of specialization.For Ed.D. students, one of the specialityareas must be computer science educa-tion. Master's students who pass theseexaminations at the Ph.D. level are en-couraged to pursue a Ph.D. program ofstudy. Approximately 700 studentsgraduate each year in the United Stateswith Ph.D.'s in computer science. Ingeneral, both academic and industrialpositions exist for each Ph.D. graduate.

The candidate's baccalaureate de-gree need not be in computer science inorder to enter this program. Admission tothe program does require: (1) an under-graduate degree; (2) successful comple-tion of a 10-hour calculus sequence;(3) demonstrated competence in pro-gramming with some procedure-orientedprogramming language such as C, FOR-TRAN, or PASCAL; (4) qualifying grade-point average and Graduate RecordExamination scores.

Economics andLegal Studies inBusinessProfessor and Head Joseph M.

Jadlow, Ph.D.

Economics is a science of choice. Thestudy of economics centers aroundindividuals' attempts to improve theirliving standards. It provides a compre-hensive view of how a society is orga-nized to transform the limited resourcesavailable into want-satisfying goods andservices. It investigates the principlesunderlying the operation of the economicsystem, and seeks to determine its weak-nesses and to prescribe policy measuresthat will improve its operation. In theprocess it ranges over a host of the mostimportant problems confronting contem-porary society-the causes of and rem-edies for depression and inflation, thedeterminants of and methods for improv-ing income distribution, poverty problemsand welfare measures, the role of thegovernment in economic activity, therequisites for economic growth anddevelopment, pollution and congestionand their control.

The primary objectives sought in theundergraduate curriculum are to developa broad understanding and perspectiveof the economic aspects of people'sactivities, coupled with thorough trainingin the fundamental tools of economicanalyses. Toward these ends, the devel-opment of elementary mathematical andstatistical skills is highly desirable, as iscomplementary study in the social andbehavioral sciences, accounting andbusiness administration.

A major in economics prepares stu-dents for positions with business firms,nonprofit private organizations and gov-ernment agencies-both national andinternational. It provides an excellentbackground for the study of law andinternational relations. It qualifies compe-tent students to undertake the graduatework necessary for professional posi-

tions in economic research and collegeor university teaching. A degree option inbusiness economics and quantitativestudies is offered through the College ofBusiness Administration to provide addi-tional training in analytical methods andcommunication skill for both public andprivate sector occupations.

Graduate ProgramsThe department offers work leading to

the Master of Science degree and theDoctor of Philosophy degree. The gradu-ate program in economics prepareseconomists for academic careers as wellas research and administrative positionsin business and government agencies.

Graduate fields of specialization in-clude monetary economics, public fi-nance, international economics, eco-nomic development, econometrics, laborand human resource economics, indus-trial organization, and urban and re-gional economics. In addition, graduatecourses are offered in the history of eco-nomic thought and in mathematicaleconomics.

The initial admission to a graduateprogram is determined by an electedgraduate studies committee on the basisof the applicant's previous academicrecord; verbal, quantitative and analyticalscores of the Graduate Record Examina-tion; and letters of recommendation.The Master of Science Degree. Admis-sion to the master's program in econom-ics is granted to college graduates withsuperior academic records whosepreparation has been broad and thor-ough. They need not have majored ineconomics as undergraduates but mustbe well grounded in economic funda-mentals. A good background in one ormore such fields as history, philosophy,mathematics, statistics, political science,English, sociology, accounting, finance,psychology, or management is particu-larly helpful to the graduate student ineconomics. An applicant whose priorpreparation is deficient in some respect,may, if otherwise qualified, be admitted tothe program but will be required to re-move the deficiency, increasing some-what the time needed to complete workfor the degree.

Each graduate student is guided in thepreparation of a program of study by agraduate studies committee. At themaster's level there are two options. Oneoption provides the student with a well-rounded program that avoids prematurespecialization in some particular area ofeconomics. The candidate for themaster's degree is required to showcompetence in basic economic theoryand statistical methods, together with anunderstanding of the fundamental


institutional operations of the UnitedStates economy. The second option is inapplied economics which stresses com-munication skills, quantitative analysisand course work from other disciplinesrelated to their career objectives.

Each program contains enough elec-tives to permit considerable choiceamong areas of emphasis. A researchreport or thesis is required of all studentswho take only the M.S. degree. Thoseaccepted for the Ph.D. program have theoption of applying for and receiving theM.S. degree without the research reportupon successful completion of the Ph.D.qualifying examination and the filing ofan approved Ph.D. thesis topic with theGraduate College. A foreign language isnot required.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Ad-mission to the doctoral program in eco-nomics is granted to college graduateswho have satisfactorily completed atleast one year of graduate work in eco-nomics and who have superior aca-demic records.

This program stresses balancedpreparation in economic theory and inmathematics and statistics, as well ascompetence in subject-area fields ofspecialization.The student is required topass qualifying examinations in thetheory core and in one field of specializa-tion. (The theory core is not considered afield of specialization.) Competencemust be demonstrated in second andthird fields of specialization, eitherthrough course work or by passing aqualifying examination in each field. Anadvisory committee helps the studentplan a program of study to achieve theseobjectives. A foreign language is notrequired.

A dissertation based upon originalresearch is required of the candidate fora Ph.D. degree in economics. A final oralexamination deals principally with thedissertation and fields to which it is mostclosely related.

EnglishAssociate Professor and Head Jeffrey

Walker, Ph.D.

The study of English literature andlanguage is fundamental to any educa-tion. Not only does it provide familiaritywith the literary works that shape culturalheritage, but it also develops the abilitiesto think analytically, to speak and writeeffectively, and to consider various pointsof view when dealing with people andideas. Educated people in almost everycareer and lifestyle regard these skills asinvaluable.

The Department of English prides itselfon the diversity of its course offerings andon its small lecture and discussionclasses. The B.A., M.A. and Ph.D. de-grees are awarded through the depart-ment and a full range of courses areoffered in seven areas: literature, compo-sition and rhetoric, technical writing,creative writing, linguistics, teachingEnglish as a second language, and film.The number of students in any Englishclass rarely exceeds 30; and in a writingclass, including freshman-level classes,the enrollment cannot exceed 25. Themaximum number of students in a gradu-ate-level class is 10.

An undergraduate English major hasfour options: a traditional English major,secondary education teaching certifica-tion, creative writing or technical writing,each of which emphasizes literature andwriting in varying proportions. Englishmajors may choose from courses in allhistorical periods of British and Americanliterature, from early to contemporary,and in all genres-novel, film, short story,poetry, and drama. Every literaturecourse emphasizes literary appreciationand analysis and allows ample opportu-nity for discussion and writing. The stu-dent in the traditional major may alsotake creative writing from practicing,published writers and may specialize atthe advanced level in fiction writing,poetry writing, and scriptwriting.Alsoavailable are courses in linguistics,which is the study of language, andtechnical writing, which is writing forscience and industry.

Many English majors pursue careersdirectly related to their major, such as intechnical writing or in teaching. An En-glish major with a technical writing optionwould be well prepared to pursue acareer as a writer, editor, publicationsmanager, or information developer. Stu-dents who want to teach may earn sec-ondary teaching certification in Englishthrough either the Department of Englishor the College of Education, or they maydecide to go to graduate school in orderto teach in a college or university. A greatmany English majors have found theteaching profession a rewarding andchallenging one. Other students find thatan English major is excellent preparationfor law school because it develops theanalytical and language skills lawyersuse. But one need not have definitecareer goals to major in English. Englishmajors regularly pursue careers not onlyin education,.professional writing, andlaw, but also in medicine, the ministry,publishing, government, and business.Professional schools and businessesvalue English majors both for their com-munication skills and for their broad-mindedness.

The Department of English serves a

great many students other than thosemajoring in English. It offers a variety ofwriting courses to fulif ill the University'scomposition requirements; and Englishcourses in literature, technical writing,creative writing, and film are very popularelectives for students in all majors. Manystudents find English such a goodcomplement to their first major that theychoose a second major or minor in En-glish.

A Bachelor of Arts in English requires39 hours of lower- and upper-divisionEnglish courses. An English minor re-quires 18 hours of English, at least nineof which must be upper-division. (Thesehours do not include Freshman Compo-sition.)

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of English offers pro-

grams leading to the Master of Arts andthe Doctor of Philosophy. Masters stu-

dents may choose among three pro-grams: Master of Arts in English; Masterof Arts in technical writing; and Master ofArts in teaching English as a secondlanguage (TESL). In consultation withtheir advisory committees, both mastersand doctoral students have considerableflexibility in designing a degree thatmeets their own interests and profes-sional goals. Students may take coursesin creative writing, film, technical writing,composition and rhetoric, TESL, linguis-tics, literary theory, and all periods ofBritish and American literature. Thediversity of choices and the flexibility ofthe program prepare students to meet thedemands of a changing academic mar-ketplace.Admission Requirements. Studentsseeking admission to the graduate pro-gram in English must be accepted by theGraduate College and by the departmen-tall admission committee. In addition tothe application and transcripts requiredby the Graduate College, students mustsubmit to the Department of Englishgraduate coordinator a statement ofpurpose; letters of recommendation; anda writing sample or the Graduate RecordExamination general and subject areascores. Non-native speakers of Englishmust submit scores for both the Test ofWritten English (TWE) and the TOEFL.For fall admission the early decisiondeadline is February 28; the final dead-line is April 1. The deadline for springadmission is October 15. Prerequisitesare listed under each degree below.Teaching Opportunities. Depending ontheir levels of experience and areas ofemphasis, graduate teaching assistantsmay tutor in the Writing Center or teachtheir own sections of freshman composi -

tion, composition for international stu-


dents, technical writing, creative writing,or literature. All teaching assistants arerequired to take an appropriate peda-gogy course during their first year ofteaching.The Master of Arts Degree. The M.A. inEnglish allows students to develop ex-pertise in a variety of areas: British andAmerican literature, creative writing,literary theory and criticism, film, compo-sition and rhetoric, technical writing,linguistics, and TESL. In consultation withtheir advisory committees, students de-vise an individualized curriculum thatreflects their own intellectual interestsand prepares them to enter a doctoralprogram or to teach at the college level.The degree programs in TESL and tech-nical writing prepare teachers for thebilingual classroom and technical writersfor industry.

Prerequisites include a baccalaureatedegree with an English major, or at least24 hours in English (excluding freshmancomposition). Successful applicantsusually have a minimum grade-pointaverage of'3.00 on a 4.00 scale, particu-larly in English courses.

The M.A. in English consists of 30credit hours, including six hours of thesis.In addition to these hours, students mustdemonstrate reading knowledge of aforeign language, pass the M.A. qualify-ing examination, and pass an oral de-fense of the thesis. The thesis is a work oforiginal research prepared with the guid-ance of the student's advisory commit-tee. Creative writing students maypresent as their theses original works inpoetry, drama (including screenplays), orprose fiction. The programs in technicalwriting and TESL have separate degreerequirements described below.Technical Writing. The M.A. in Englishprogram in technical writing consists of30 credit hours (with thesis) or 33 credithours (without thesis). In addition to thesehours, students must fulfill the foreignlanguage requirement and pass the M.A.qualifying examination in technical writ-ing. Prerequisites are the same as thoseabove.TESL. The M.A. in English program inteaching English as a second languageis designed to provide students with theskills necessary to teach English to non-native speakers in a variety of situations,e.g., teaching English as a foreign lan-guage in an overseas school, college oruniversity; teaching English as a secondlanguage to international students study -

ing in intensive English progri#ms in theU.S.; or teaching English to bilingual andbicultural students in American publicschool systems and adult educationprograms.

Prerequisites are the same as thoseabove except that the major may be

either in English or in a field related tosecond language acquisition or teach-ing. In addition, applicants to the TESLprogram must have six hours in a foreignlanguage with a grade of "B" or better, ormust complete this requirement prior totaking the qualifying examination.

The TESL program consists of 30credit hours (thesis option) or 34 credithours (nonthesis option). In addition tothese hours, students must pass the M.A.qualifying examinations in TESL.

TESL is especially relevant to the pub-li c school classroom as a result of recentlegislation concerning bilingual educa-tion. Teachers in English and other areasof expertise will find this program espe-cially useful. Although the completion ofTESL does not confer public schoolteaching certification, the TESL coursework, when combined with selectedcourses from the College of Education,can lead to the student's obtaining anendorsement in TESL and/or bilingualeducation to already-certified teachers.(For more information, contact the Officeof Professional Education in the Collegeof Education and the State Department ofEducation in Oklahoma City.)The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. TheDepartment of English grants one doc-toral degree, the Ph.D. in English. Stu-dents may, however, emphasize in theircourses, their exams, and their disserta-ti ons a variety of areas: all periods ofBritish and American literature, NativeAmerican literature and language, cre-ative writing, literary theory and criticism,film, technical writing, composition andrhetoric, linguistics, and TESL. They mayalso choose an interdisciplinary empha-sis. In consultation with their advisorycommittees, students devise an individu-alized curriculum that reflects their ownintellectual interests and professionalgoals.

Prerequisites include a master's de-gree in English or a field related to thestudent's area of emphasis. Successfulapplicants usually have a minimumgrade-point average of 3.50 on a 4.00scale in their master's degrees. All Ph.D.students are admitted provisionally andmust take the first-year examinationduring their first two semesters of enroll-ment.

The Ph.D. degree consists of 60 credithours beyond the master's degree. Fif-teen to 20 of these hours are devoted tothe dissertation. In addition to thesehours, students must take a first-yearexamination; demonstrate readingknowledge of two foreign languages ormastery of one language; pass the Ph.D.qualifying examination in two areas; andpass an oral defense of the dissertation.The dissertation is a work of originalresearch prepared under the direction of

the dissertation committee. Creativestudents may present as their disserta-tions original works in poetry, drama(including screenplays), or prose fiction.

Additional information and require-ments may be found in the EnglishGraduate Guidelines, available from theGraduate Office of the Department ofEnglish.

ForeignLanguages andLiteratures

The Department of Foreign Languagesand Literatures offers French, German,Russian and Spanish as major fields ofstudy. Minors may be earned in French,German, ancient Greek, Japanese, Latin,Russian and Spanish.

In all languages offered by the depart-ment, elementary courses are availablefor students with no previous experience.A special intensive course in Spanish(10 credit hours in eight weeks) is offeredin the summer session. Students withprevious foreign language experiencemay take placement tests to find thecourse best suited for their level of profi-ciency. A major in a foreign language isoften supported by study of another lan-guage or work in other fields. Many lan-guage majors choose to qualify for anInternational Studies certificate. Severalcertificates, such as Asian, CentralAsian, Latin American, Russian andEastern European Studies and Ancientand Medieval Studies, are available.

The study of foreign languages is avital and humanizing part of a generaleducation. In a rapidly changing andshrinking world, it offers new culturalinsights, breaks down insularity, fostersdiscipline of thought and expression andleads to a better understanding of one'snative language. Foreign language ma-jors may expect to find openings in awide variety of careers in law, medicine,government, industry and commerce, allof which require a liberal arts degree.Job opportunities are greatly enhancedfor those who combine foreign languagestudy with a major or minor in other disci-plines. Moreover, there is a growingdemand for foreign language teachers insecondary education. Bachelor of Artscandidates may qualify for teachinglicensure without increasing the numberof hours required for graduation.

In addition to the standard courses inlanguage, literature and civilization forindividual languages, the departmentoffers literature-in-translation courses for


general education, and courses in Ger-man for reading knowledge and Russianfor reading knowledge.

GeographyAssociate Professor and Head

Thomas A. Wikle, Ph.D.

Geography is concerned with thesurface of the earth and its immediateatmosphere. Geographers study thesimilarities, the differences and interac -

tions among phenomena in this region.Geographers are interested in the eco-nomic, social, political and environmen-tal qualities of places, and in how theseattributes interact.

Geographers attempt to understandhuman behavior by answeringsuchquestions as: Where do people work?Where do they play? Where do they live?Why do people make these locationalchoices? What are the consequences ofthese decisions and behavior?

Because the physical environment isimportant in many explanations of spatialbehavior and spatial patterns, geogra-phers have traditionally concerned them-selves with relationships between hu-mans and their environment. What im-pact do people have on the land? Whatimpact does the land have on people?How do people perceive their environ-ment? How does this perception influ-ence their activities?

Finally, geographers examine spatialpatterns and behaviors in specificregional contexts. These analyses occurat many levels-world-wide, national andlocal. These kinds of studies lead tosuggestions for change and improve-ment-the application of geography tocontemporary rural, urban and regionalproblems. Thus many aspects of urban,regional and national planning are geo-graphic in nature.

No academic discipline has broaderinterests than does geography, and theDepartment of Geography allows stu-

dents the flexibility to pursue studies thatlead to a wide range of educationalgoals and careers. Students with inter-ests in environment, planning, real es-tate, economic development,international affairs, travel, remote sens-ing, geographic information systems,area studies, management or educationare among those which can be accom-modated. A geography minor program isalso available for those who see geogra-phy as complementaryto another field ofstudy.

Those who wish to study geographytend to be interested in their own sur-roundings and in other places. They also

possess a curiosity for maps, the basictool of the field. Students of geographywill become familiar with remote sensing,computer graphics, statistics, geo-graphic information systems and cartog-raphy-tools which facilitate geographicanalysis.

Many careers are available to thegeography major or minor. Recentgraduates have been employed in urbanand regional planning, community devel-opment, locational analysis in both thepublic and private sector, resource plan-ning and management, various forms ofdomestic and foreign service, cartogra-phy and teaching. Geography also pro-vides an excellent foundation for a liberaleducation and is a good basis for a ca-reer in business, industry or government.

The department possesses a carto-graphic laboratory, the Center for Appli-cations of Remote Sensing, a computermapping facility, field mapping equip-ment such as global positioning systemreceivers, an interactive weather analy-sis system with satellite data feed, and anARC-INFO equipped geographic infor-mation system laboratory. Three nationaljournals are edited and published byfaculty members in the department, theJournal of Cultural Geography, SportPlace, and the Journal of Central AsianStudies.

The department specializes in twoareas: cultural and historical geographyand resource management/GIS. Comple-mentary course work supporting thesespecialized areas is available in otherdepartments.

The Department of Geography offersthe B.A. and B.S. degrees. An option inapplied resource management is avail-able within the B.S. degree. An advancedprogram leading to the Master of Sciencedegree is also available. The departmentalso sponsors students in the interdisci-plinaryM.S. and Ph.D. programs in envi-ronmental science.Certificate in Geographic InformationSystems (GIS). The certificate in GISprovides students with broad exposure toprinciples and applications of GIS.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Geography offers

work leading to the Master of Sciencedegree. This degree programemphasizes preparation for employmentin positions which are enhanced by anability to recognize and to interpret spa-tial distribution, and to analyze regions.

Particular emphasis is placed on theapplied aspects of geography, with manygraduates employed by private businessas well as city, regional, state and na-tional planning agencies. Recipients ofthe M.S. in geography have also gone onto a variety of successful careers in vari-ous fields, including retail store locationanalysis, banking, and university teach-ing and research.The Master of Science Degree. Admis-sion to the master's program in geogra-phy is granted to college graduates withsuperior academic records. An under-graduate geography major is not re-quired. Majors from the social, physical,and behavioral sciences and from thehumanities are encouraged to apply.Incoming graduate students must dem-onstrate competency in cultural geogra-phy, physical geography, statistics, andcartography. If deficiencies are apparent,they must be corrected, possibly increas-ing the time needed to complete thedegree.

Two basic plans of study exist for themaster's degree. One plan requires aminimum of 30 credit hours including athesis, the other is a 36-credit-hour non-thesis option. Plans of study can be de-veloped to accommodate many interests.Major faculty interests include resourcemanagement, cultural and historicalgeography, regional analysis and devel-opment, and cultural ecology.

School ofGeologyBrown Monnett Professor, Regents

Professor and Head Zuhair F.AI-Shaieb, Ph.D.

Earth is the residence of the humanrace. It is essential to develop a better


understanding of the composition, inter-nal and external processes, that affectthe Earth. Earth is an outdoor laboratoryfilled with opportunities to observe Earthprocesses in action. By applying knowl-edge of forces that shape the Earth,geoscientists seek to reconstruct thepast and anticipate the future. Geoscien-tists provide information to society forsolving problems and establishing policyfor resource management, environmen-tal protection, and public health, safetyand welfare.

Geology is concerned with the pro-cesses, the history, and the characteris-tics of the rocks and sediments thatshape the Earth. Human activities, pre-dominantly on or near the surface, haveutilized rocks and rock products, mainlypetroleum and metals, to contribute tothe quality of life. Because the Earth isdynamic-that is, the land surface isconstantly changing-knowledge ofearthquakes, volcanoes, plate tectonics,floods and landslides, to name a fewdynamic events, is critical to minimizehuman suffering and economic loss.Within geology, different specialties,such as petroleum geology, ground-water geology (hydrogeology), geomor-phology (study of surface processes),structural geology, and paleontology(study of fossils), have developed.

The School of Geology offers tradi-tional academic program services,awards B.S. and M.S. degrees in geologyand conducts various outreach pro-grams. Geology majors are provided aquality education designed to developleadership skills and enhance employ-ment opportunities. The School of Geol-ogy has embraced two areas with greatpotential for growth: sedimentary/petro-leum geology and hydrogeology/environ-mental geology. In both areas, the schoolhas already established a sound infra-structure-appropriatef acuity appoint-ments, laboratory and computer up-grades, and a sound record of productiv-ity. Geology undergraduates are eligiblefor one of at least 10 departmental schol-arships available, based on academicachievement and need. Teaching assis-tantships, research assistantships, andfellowships are available for qualifyinggeology graduate students.

Geologists are employed extensivelyin applied and pure research and inteaching. Applied research includes theexploration for, and development of, oiland gas fields, metallic and nonmetallicmineral deposits, and reservoirs ofground water. The geologist is well-prepared to pursue and direct environ-mental studies. Careers in research maybe found with private employers, govern-ment agencies or universities. Teachingpositions in geology are available at alllevels, beginning with secondary educa-

tion. As with most other sciences, moreemployment opportunities will be avail-able to students with advanced trainingand a broad background. In general,careers as teachers in a college or uni-versity and in research are open only tothose with graduate training.

Graduate ProgramsPrerequisites. The student should haveat least 39 credit hours in geology. Addi-tional undergraduate requirements toenter the master's degree program in-clude: nine credit hours of chemistry,eight credit hours of physics, and fourcredit hours of zoology or botany. Defi-ciencies in course work must be madeup by the student after entering the pro-gram. The Graduate Record Examinationis recommended, but not required, foradmission to the program.The Master of Science Degree. Empha-sis in the master's degree program isplaced on applied geology, includingsedimentary/petroleum geology,hydrogeology/environmental geology,paleontology, and structural geology.

Thesis Option-This option is recom-mended for students planning to con-tinue graduate studies at the doctorallevel. Each candidate must complete atleast 30 semester credit hours of workbeyond the prerequisites.As many as 12of these may be taken in other depart-ments of the University upon approval bythe candidate's advisory committee.Each candidate is required to write athesis. A final defense of the thesis andthe research that it documents is re-quired of all students.

Nonthesis Option-This option is rec-ommended for students who do not planto continue graduate studies. Each can-didate must complete at least 33 semes-ter credit hours of work beyond the pre-requisites and three semester hours forthe creative component.

Students who wish to pursue the Ph.D.degree upon completion of the M.S. havethe option of entering the interdisciplinaryprogram in environmental science ad-ministered through the Graduate Col-lege. Numerous Department of Geologyfaculty members currently advise stu-dents seeking the doctoral degree. Fund-ing as a teaching or research assistantmay be available to assist students seek-ing the Ph.D. in environmental science ifthe thrust of their research is related togeology.

HistoryAssociate Professor and Head William

S. Bryans, Ph.D.

History is the record, explanation andinterpretation of the totality of man's ac-tivities. The study of history is unique inits concern for the role of time in humandevelopment. History enhances theindividual's knowledge of self and givesperspective and deeper meaning tocontemporary events. Courses in theDepartment of History are intended togive the student a broad understandingof the evolution of civilizations, peoples,countries and institutions, and an insightinto the meaning of this evolution, as wellas to prepare graduates for many typesof employment.

Because history is basic to many spe-cial fields, the department's instruction isdesigned to aid students interested ineducation, law, journalism, scientific andtechnical disciplines, public service andbusiness administration. Students incolleges other than the College of Artsand Sciences who wish to pursue thestudy of history are encouraged to enrollin courses of interest. The Department ofHistory offers a number of courses thatsatisfy General Education requirementsin the social sciences and the humani-ties. It participates actively in the HonorsProgram and offers to its majors the op-tion of pursuing a special plan of studyleading to a Departmental Honors certifi-cate. The Department of History alsoparticipates actively in the Area Studiescertificate programs and in the Women'sStudies certificate program.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of History offers pro-

grams leading to the M.A. and Ph.D. inhistory. In addition to the general Gradu-ate College requirements, the candidatefor the Master of Arts or Doctor of Philoso-phy degree with a major in history isexpected to have prerequisites of ap-proximately 30 semester credit hours(including 18 upper-division hours) ofundergraduate history courses, with anundergraduate grade-point average of atleast 3.00.The Master of Arts Degree. Admissionto the master's program requires submis-sion of scores for the verbal, quantitativeaptitude, and analytical sections of theGraduate Record Examination. Candi-dates for the Master of Arts degreechoose one of three alternative plans.Requirements common to all three plansinclude completion of a course (HIST5023) in historical methods of researchand writing, several graduate seminars,and a two-hour oral examination at the


end of the program. Students must main-tain at least a 3.00 ("B") grade-point aver-age. An advisory committee will be ap-pointed for each student during the firstsemester of enrollment. The three plansare designed for different careers, andthe distinctive requirements of each aresummarized below:

Plan l-(This plan is recommended forthose planning to continue graduatestudies at the doctoral level.) Studentsmust complete a minimum of 30 hours ofgraduate courses in three fields (at leastone in United States history and one innon-United States history). These hoursmust include at least nine hours of semi-nar offered by the department (readingand/or research), Historical Methods(HIST 5023), and six hours of thesis(HIST 5000). With the consent of theadvisory committee, students may substi-tute a field in a related discipline for onefield in history. Students must take at leastsix hours in the related discipline. Thespecific courses used to comprise thisfield must be taken at the graduate leveland have the approval of that member ofthe advisory committee representing therelated discipline.

Fields of study include:Ancient Mediterranean worldMedieval EuropeEarly modern Europe to 1789Europe since 1789East AsiaEngland to 1714Latin AmericaMiddle EastRussia and East EuropeUnited States to 1877United States since 1877Women's history

Students must demonstrate satisfactoryreading knowledge of one foreign lan-guage.

Plan I I-(Studentsmust be pursuingapplied history.) Students must completea minimum of 33 hours of graduatecourses. These hours must include atleast three hours of research seminar, sixadditional hours of seminar offered bythe department (reading and/or re-search), Historical Methods (HIST 5023),an internship (HIST 5030), and two hoursof report (HIST 5000). With the approvalof the student's advisory committee, asmany as 9 of these hours may be takenin related disciplines.

Plan I I I-Students must complete aminimum of 36 hours of graduatecourses in three fields, at least one inUnited States history and one in non-United States history. (See "Fields ofStudy" listed under Plan I.) The 36 hoursmust also include at least three hours of

research seminar, nine additional hoursof seminar offered by the department(reading and/or research), HistoricalMethods (HIST 5023) and a three-hourcreative component (master's researchpaper). The creative component require-ment is satisfied by the course HIST6120, Special Studies in History. At leastsix hours of the course work must be inUnited States history and at least sixhours in non-United States history. Withthe approval of the student's advisorycommittee, as many as nine of thesehours may be taken in related disci-plines.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Ad-mission to the doctoral program requiresa satisfactory score on the GraduateRecord Examination, including the Ad-vanced Examination in History. Eachapplicant must also meet OklahomaState University requirements for the M.A.degree in history, with a grade-pointaverage of at least 3.20 (on a 4.00 scale)in previous graduate work in history.

No definite course requirements applyto all students. Work necessary to pre-pare the student for his or her written andoral examinations will be indicated in aplan of study which is prepared andapproved by an advisory committee.Generally, a minimum of 60 semestergraduate credit hours beyond the M.A.degree with a "B" grade average for allcourses is required.

The prospective doctoral student mustoffer four fields for examination, one ofwhich may be a pertinent field outside ofhistory. Students specializing in UnitedStates history must offer for examination:1.The United States history field.2.One chronological or topical field from

the following:Early America to 1787Nineteenth-century United States,

1787-1877Modern United States, 1877-presentUnited States economicUnited States militaryUnited States social and intellectualUnited States SouthUnited States West

3.Two fields from the following:Ancient Mediterranean worldMedieval EuropeEarly modern Europe to 1789Europe since 1789East AsiaEngland to 1714Latin AmericaMiddle EastRussia and East EuropeWomen's history

With the consent of the advisory com-mittee, a student may substitute for one ofthese fields a pertinent field outside his-tory. At least 12 hours of graduate coursework in a field outside historywouldnormally be expected.

Students specializing in non-UnitedStates history must offer for examination:1.Three fields from the following:

Ancient Mediterranean worldMedieval EuropeEarly modern Europe to 1789Europe since 1789East AsiaEnglandLatin AmericaRussia and East Europe

2.Any field in United States history.3.With the consent of their advisory

committee, students may substitute forone of the fields (except United Stateshistory) a pertinent field outside history.At least 12 hours of graduate coursework in a field outside history wouldnormally be expected.Upon admission to do graduate work

at the doctoral level, the student's tempo-rary adviser is the departmental directorof graduate studies. Before the middle ofthe student's second semester, an advi-sory committee is appointed to assist thestudent in preparing the plan of study.This committee will consist of four mem-bers of the departmental graduate faculty(one from each of the examinationfields), including the student's majoradviser, who acts as chairperson.

No student is admitted to candidacyuntil he or she has (1) demonstrated areading knowledge in at least one for-eign language; (2) completed all coursework on the plan of study; (3) completedwith a "B" grade graduate courses inhistorical methods and historiography;(4) obtained approval of a proposeddissertation topic; and (5) passed com-prehensive written and oral examinationsin each of the areas of concentration.

Upon admission to candidacy, thestudent begins work on the dissertation.Supervised by the major adviser andmembers of the advisory committee, thedissertation provides the student anopportunity to do original research on atopic within the major area of study. Thefinal dissertation must be submitted to theGraduate College in accordance withthe regulations contained in the "Gradu-ate College" section of the Catalog. Uponcompletion of the dissertation, the stu-dent undergoes a final examination. Oralin nature and no more than two hours inlength, the examination is primarily adefense of the dissertation.


School ofJournalism andBroadcastingProfessor and Director Paul Smeyak,

Ph.D.

At Oklahoma State University, theprofessional areas of mass communica-tion are grouped in the School of Jour-nalism and Broadcasting (SJB). Theseareas seek to complement each otherwith a minimum of duplication.

A modern democratic society cannotli ve by its ideals if its mass media practi-tioners are merely competent techni-cians who worry less about what isrre-ported to the people than how it is re-ported. Citizens must have accurateinformation about social, political andeconomic problems as well as knowl-edge of actions taken by governmentagencies at all levels. From village coun-cil to Supreme Court, there can be noexception from the rule that public busi-ness is the public's business.

To speak to people through radio,television or the printed page requires aknowledge of the people to whom onewishes to speak and an understanding ofthe world in which they live. Therefore,the curricula of the School of Journalismand Broadcasting are designed to offermore than training in communicationtechniques, Three-quarters of the SJBstudent's time at the University is devotedto a liberal education in the arts andsciences. At the same time, the studentgains competence in a professional fieldthrough courses in the SJB.

In brief, then, the purposes of theSchool of Journalism and Broadcastingare:1.To provide thorough, broadly-based

professional education for the mass-media professions.

2.To encourage liberal and culturalbackground in the arts, literature, lan-guages, and social, biological andphysical sciences.

3.To promote scholarly research andprofessional performance.

4.To provide media leadership andassistance in extension and publicservice through high school and col-lege educators and professional com-munication associations.

5.To emphasize high standards of ethicsand responsibility in mass communi-cation.

AccreditationThe undergraduate programs of study

in the School of Journalism and Broad-casting are accredited by the Accredit-ing Council on Education in Journalismand Mass Communication.

Special RequirementsAny student who elects a specific

option from those listed in succeedingpages should meet with an SJB facultyadviser as soon as possible. The abilityto type a minimum of 30 words a minuteand a computer course or computerliteracy are required for registration in allwriting courses beginning with thecourse Mass Media Style and Structure(JB 1393). In addition, competence intyping is expected of all majors in theSchool. Prospective students are advisedto prepare for this requirement beforeenrolling at the University.

Advertising and SalesIdeas ranging from the introductionof

new products and services to publicservice messages are communicated tomass audiences through advertising.Advertising also provides the economicbase for the mass media-newspapers,radio and television, magazines, cable-thus freeing them from the political con-trol found in many countries.

Upon a strong liberal arts foundation,majors in advertising build educationalexperiences that prepare them for workin copywriting and layout, production,management, media selection, marketanalysis, sales and campaign planning.Basically, the program focuses on deci-sion-making and problem-solving, andincludes courses in marketing, psychol-ogy, sociology, management and eco-nomics. Opportunitiesfor part-time jobs,summer internships and participation inthe Advertising Club round out thestudent's experience.

The program is also designed for stu-dents who wish to write, sell and producecommercial messages, and to move intomanagement or ownership positions onradio and television stations.

The program is affiliated with theAmerican Association of AdvertisingAgencies, the Advertising Federation ofAmerica and the Point of Purchase Ad-vertisinglnstitute.

JournalismNews coverage today has gone be-

yond routine reporting on police and cityhall activities. The modern newspaper or

broadcasting station tries to spotlight thediverse components of our complexsociety. This objective calls for writerswith broad interests and special knowl-edge in politics, religion, science, busi-ness, economics, art and public welfare.From the ranks of these reporters comethe future print and broadcast journalists.

Programs offered in journalism are:News-editorial. This program preparesstudents for writing and editing positionson newspapers, magazines, and tradejournals, in radio and television newsdepartments, and in book editing andpublishing.Technical communication. Students maycombine agriculture and journalism orhome economics and journalism toprepare for specialized work in technicalwriting and editing. These programs aredeveloped in cooperation with the col-leges of Agricultural Sciences and Natu-ral Resources and Human EnvironmentalSciences.Community journalism. This program, forthose who plan eventually to own ormanage weekly or small daily newspa-pers, requires experience in news, ad-vertising and management, and thusrequires a wide range of courses bothwithin and outside the School of Journal-ism and Broadcasting. This program isan individualized one and should beentered only with the advice and consentof the SJB director.

Journalism majors assist in the pub-li shing of a campus newspaper, TheDaily O'Collegian, in the newsroom ofradio station KOSU, and in audio andvideo news programming cablecast overa local cable station. Many juniors andseniors find this work a source of rev-enue tb assist them in the cost of theireducation. Advanced news-editorialstudents also spend one summer on aninternship with a commercial newspaperor broadcasting station, and some spendthe spring or fall semester on a dailynewspaper. Some hold part-time jobs ascampus correspondents for variouspublications or work for media in theStillwater area. Part of the laboratory workin JB 2393, 2413, 3413, and 4413 isdone on The Daily O'Collegian or otherpublications.

The journalism program is affiliatedwith the Oklahoma Press Association,Southwest Journalism Congress, Societyof Professional Journalists, and the Asso-ciation for Education in Journalism andMass Communications.

Public RelationsPublic relations practitioners perform a

variety of tasks. As writers, they prepare


news releases, speeches, trade-paperand magazine articles, texts of booklets,radio and television copy, product infor-mation and stockholder reports. Theymay supervise the company newspaper,magazine or newsletter, or other com-pany communication programs.

The public relations option is related toand draws upon thq news-editorial cur-riculum, as do the public informationdepartments of government, businessand industry. The public relations pro-gram is affiliated with the Society of Na-tional Association Publications, Interna-tional Association of Business Communi-cators, and the Public Relations Societyof America.

Radio-TVThe programs in radio-television are

designed to prepare students for careersin broadcasting. They offer graduates achance to develop abilities in announc-ing, production, copywriting, news, docu-mentary, sports, sales and management.

The undergraduate degree is offeredin the professional option broadcastjournalism. It is intended for students whowish to write, edit and produce news,discussion and documentary programsfor broadcasting stations, networks andcable companies.

The facilities of the University's color-equipped Telecommunications Center, afull-time radio station, KOSU, an elec-tronic news-gathering laboratory (ENG),and access to a channel on local televi-sion, make it possible for majors to ac-quire experience along with professionalstudies. Radio-television is affiliated withthe National Association of FM Broad-casters, Radio Advertising Bureau, Okla-homa Association of Broadcasters, Okla-homa Broadcast Education Association,National Association of Broadcasters,Broadcast Education Association andNational Public Radio.

Graduate ProgramsThe School of Journalism and Broad-

casting offers courses leading to thedegree of Master of Science in masscommunication. The School also coop-erates with the College of Education inplanning and supervising study leadingto a Doctor of Education degree withemphasis in mass communication.

Prerequisites for unqualified admissionto the master's program include abachelor's degree in an area of masscommunication with an overall grade-point average of 3.00. The GraduateRecord Exam (GRE) is required. Potentialdoctoral candidates must have abachelor's or master's degree in a mass

communication area, in addition to pro-fessional experience. Graduates of anon-mass communication discipline mayenter the Master of Science program,with the stipulation that they complete,without graduate credit, foundationcourses relevant to career interestsbefore they take graduate courses.

Basic emphasis is on application ofcurrent communication theories andresearch methods and designs to theprofessional aspects of mass communi-cation. Electives in the behavioral sci-

ences are encouraged.

MathematicsProfessor and Head Benny Evans,

Ph.D.

Contemporary mathematics is con-cerned with investigations into far-reach-ing extensions of such basic conceptsas space and ,number and also with theformulation and analysis of mathematicalmodels arising from varied fields of appli-cation. Mathematics has always hadclose relationships to the physical sci-ences and engineering. As the biologi-cal, social and management scienceshave become increasingly quantitative,the mathematical sciences have movedin new directions to develop interrelation-ships with these subjects.

Mathematicians teach in high schoolsand colleges, do research and teach atuniversities, and work in industry andgovernment. In industry mathematiciansusually work in research, although theyhave become increasingly involved inmanagement. Firms employing largenumbers of mathematicians are in theaerospace, communications, computer,defense, electronics, energy, and insur-ance industries. In industry a mathemati-cian typically serves either in a consult-ing capacity, giving advice on math-ematical problems to engineers andscientists, or as a memberof a researchteam composed of specialists in severalfields. Among the qualities which he orshe should possess are breadth of inter-ests and outlook, the ability to think ab-stractly and a keen interest in problemsolving.

An undergraduate specializing inmathematics will begin with calculus orsometimes with college algebra andtrigonometry. Well-prepared students areencouraged to establish credit in el-ementary courses by passing advancedstanding examinations. All majors takecourses in differential equations, andlinear and modern algebra and modernanalysis. The remainder of the field ofconcentration is determined by the

student's interests and future plans. Stu-dents are encouraged to acquire profi-ciency in computer programming and totake substantial work in related fields inwhich they have a special interest.

Undergraduate degree options areavailable to prepare students for: (1)employment in industry; (2) secondaryschool mathematics teaching; and, (3)graduate study in mathematics. Studentschoosing secondary school teachingcomplete all requirements for state licen-sure as part of this program.

Many of the more challenging posi-tions in mathematics require study be-yond a bachelor's degree. For example,university teaching requires a Ph.D.,while teaching in a junior college re-quires at least a master's degree andpossibly a doctorate. Approximately 25percent of the students receiving abachelor's degree in mathematics go onto graduate work.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Mathematics offers

programs leading to the Master of Sci-ence and Doctor of Philosophy degreesand also cooperates with the College ofEducation in supervising a programleading to the Ed.D. degree with empha-sis in mathematics.Prerequisites. A student beginninggraduate study in mathematics is ex-pected to have had, as an undergradu-ate, at least 18 semester hours in math-ematics beyond elementary integralcalculus including courses in differentialequations, linear algebra and modernalgebra. An applicant whose preparationis deficient may be admitted to the pro-gram, if otherwise qualified, but will berequired to correct the deficiency, in-creasing somewhat the time required tocomplete work for the degree. Prospec-tive graduate students are advised totake at least introductory courses inrelated fields such as physics, statistics,and computer science.The Master of Science Degree. Thedepartment offers two programs in theMaster of Science degree, one in math-ematics and one in applied mathematics.Each degree requires 32 credit hours ofgraduate course work in mathematics orrelated subjects. Two of these hours arewaived if a master's thesis is written.Each student must pass a comprehen-sive exam on the basic graduate coursesof his or her program.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Ad-mission to the Ph.D. program is grantedonly to students with superior records intheir previous graduate or undergraduatestudy. A minimum of 90 semester credithours of graduate credit beyond thebachelor's degree is required for the


Ph.D. degree. This may include a maxi-mum of 24 hours credit for the thesis.Each student has an individual doctoralcommittee which advises the student inthe formulation of an approved planofstudy for the degree. Candidates for thePh.D. in mathematics must demonstrate,by examination, a reading knowledge ofone foreign language, usually French,German or Russian.

The most important requirementfor thePh.D. degree is the preparation of anacceptable thesis. This thesis must dem-onstrate the candidate's ability to doindependent, original work in mathemat-ics.The Doctor of Education Degree. Thedepartment supervises an Ed.D. programwhich is run in conjunction with theDepartment of Higher Education andAdministration. Course requirements aresimilar to those for the Ph.D., except that12 credit hours are required in educa-tional theory. No language exam is re-quired. An expository thesis can be ac-cepted.

Microbiologyand MolecularGeneticsProfessor and Head Robert V. Miller,

Ph.D.

MicrobiologyMicrobiology is the study of bacteria,

viruses and fungi and their many rela-tionships to humans, animals and plants.Microbiologists apply their knowledge topublic health and sanitation, food pro-duction and preservation, industrialfermentations which produce chemicals,drugs, antibiotics, alcoholic beveragesand various food products, preventionand cure of diseases of plants, animalsand humans, biodegradation of toxicchemicals and other materials present inthe environment, insect pathology, andother activities which seek to controlmicrobes, to enhance their useful activi-ties and prevent those which are harmful.Microbiology also is the basis for theexciting and expanding new field ofbiotechnology which endeavors to utilizeli ving organisms to solve important prob-lems in medicine, agriculture and envi-ronmental science.

Microbes are also studied as living in agreat variety of environments and carry-ing out many of the processes found in

higher organisms. They are thus interest-ing in their own right as model systemsfor the study of reactions which occur inhigher organisms. As subjects for re-search in biochemical and moleculargenetics, microbes have contributedmost to the current knowledge of genet-ics at the molecular level (microbialsystems are in the forefront of geneticsengineering).

Opportunitiesfor employment exist atall scholarly levels, in many local, stateand national government agencies andin varied industries. The record for em-ployment of microbiologists has beenexcellent for many years and with theincreased interest in biotechnology, jobprospects look even brighter for thefuture.

Students interested in careers in mi-crobiology should have broad interestsin the biological sciences and an apti-tude for biology and chemistry. For someareas of specialization, an aptitude formathematics and physics is also essen-tial.

Departmental courses are designed toprovide comprehensive training and theskills required for working with microor-ganisms, as well as a broad understand-ing of all aspects of microbial life. Manyof the microbiology positions require gradu-ate level studies. In addition to the B.S.degree, the department offers graduatestudies leading to the M.S. and Ph.D.degrees in various areas of concentra-tion including virology, microbial physiol-ogy, microbial genetics, microbialanatomy, immunology, and several ap-plied areas.

Cell and MolecularBiology

Cell and molecular biology is the studyof how cellular components interact topromote life processes. It includes thestudy of how DNA and RNA are synthe-sized, how genes are expressed to allowdifferentiation of a single-celled egg intoa complex multicellular organism. Celland molecular biologists study proteinsynthesis, cell ultrastructure, organellestructure and function, enzymology, andthe collection of concepts and proce-dures commonly known as "biotechnol-ogy" or "genetic engineering."

With the advent of modern molecularbiology, studies of the fundamental pro-cesses of living cells have taken dra-matic strides. The cell and molecularbiology major at Oklahoma State Univer-sity has been designed to allow studentsto acquire training in a multidisciplinaryatmosphere that prepares them for em-ployment in the rapidly growing field of

biotechnology. Students following thisavenue of study will be well prepared tocontinue toward the M.S. or Ph.D. de-grees at this or other institutions or to findemployment directly upon graduation.

Opportunitiesfor employment exist atall scholarly levels, in many local, stateand national government agencies andin varied industries. The record for em-ployment of cell biologists has beenexcellent for many years and with theincreased interest in biotechnology,employment opportunities look evenbrighter for the future. It is estimated thatbetween 35,000 and 50,000 new jobs inbiotechnologywill be created during thenext five years in the San Francisco areaalone, and in the Boston area approxi-mately 20,000 individuals trained inbiotechnologywill be in demand.

These fields require a solid knowledgeof other sciences and students shouldtake high school courses in mathemat-ics, biology, chemistry and physics.Students should have broad interests inhow living cells work and have aptitudesfor biology and chemistry.

Graduate ProgramsPrograms of course work and research

leading to the degrees of Master of Sci-ence and Doctor of Philosophy are of-fered by the department in microbiologyor cell and molecular biology. Studentsmay elect either microbiology or cell andmolecular biology within the M.S. andPh.D. program.Prerequisites. Applicants for admissionmust have received the baccalaureatedegree from an accredited college andmust have completed a minimum of 30semester credit hours in biological andphysical sciences. The Aptitude Testportion of the Graduate Record Examina-tion is required of all applicants. An appli-cant will not be accepted unless at leastone member of the departmental gradu-ate faculty agrees to act as the appli-cant's adviser at the M.S. level. A majorityof the departmental graduate facultymust approve an applicant at the Ph.D.level.The Master of Science Degree. In addi-ti on to the general requirements for thedegree, the following departmental re-quirements must be met in attaining 30credit hours with thesis. The plan of studymust include six credit hours in MICRO5000 and one credit hour in MICRO5160.

All candidates for the M.S. degree areexpected to attend and participate in alldepartmental seminars. A final oral ex-amination covering the thesis is adminis-tered by the advisory committee.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Thestudy plan of a student entering the

Students entering their twelve monthsof internship must enroll in Medical Tech-nology Clinical Laboratory (MTCL)courses for 12 credit hours during theequivalent fall and spring semesters andfor six hours during the equivalent sum-mer session, as follows: Fall-MTCL4117, 4125; Spring-MTCL 4236, 4246;Summer-MTCL 4325, 4351. A grade of"I" will be given for the first two semestersof internship. Final letter grades will beawarded upon receipt of the final officialtranscript showing final letter gradesin the six MTCL courses from the schoolof medical technology by the University

medical technology coordinator. If astudent fails to complete the entire 12-month internship, no course credit will beawarded. Students will pay the regulartuition for the credit hours in which theyare enrolled, except that the facilitiesfees will be waived for the 30 hours ofMTCL courses. Students who earn a B.S.degree prior to entering hospital intern-ship will not be required to enroll and paytuition during internship unless theydesire to earn a second B.S. degree inmedical technology.Preprofessional Courses. NAACLS re-quires a minimum of 16 hours of chemis-try, including organic and/or biochemis-try and 16 hours of biology, includingimmunology. The University requirementfor the B.S. degree in medical technologyis as follows: two semesters of generalchemistry; organic chemistry and bio-chemistry; immunology, genetics,anatomy and physiology, and two upper-division courses in microbiology; collegealgebra and computer science.Residence Requirements. Although theMTCL courses are considered to beresident credit, the student is required tocomplete additional resident require-ments from regular on-campus coursesas follows: 30 hours of resident courses,including 18 hours of upper-divisioncourses listed under Major Requirementson the current degree requirement sheetin the Undergraduate Programs andRequirements.Grade-pointAverage Requirements.Students, to be qualified for the B.S. de-gree, must earn a grade-point average ofnot less than 2.00 overall and 2.00 inupper-division major courses. Studentswith less than 2.80 overall grade-pointaverage may find it difficult to gain ac-ceptance to a school of medical technol-ogy under current conditions of competi-tion.Applications and Admission to Intern-ship. Students should apply directly toone or more schools of medical technol-ogy about 10 months prior to the begin-ning date for internship. Approximately70 percent of students applying for in-ternship are accepted, depending uponthe degree of competition in any particu-lar year. The decision on acceptance ofany applicant is entirely at the discretionof the hospital-based school of medicaltechnology. Enrollment is limited by thesize of the classes in the affiliated hospi-tal-based programs. Satisfactory comple-tion of the clinical laboratory education isrequired for eligibility to take a certifyingexamination. The B.S. degree in medicaltechnology is not dependent on a pass-ing grade on the certifying examination.

Departments of

Military Studies

Coordinator Smith L. Holt, Ph.D.

In agreement with the U.S. Air Forceand the U.S. Army, OSU recognizesseparate departments of AerospaceStudies and of Military Science as inte-gral academic and administrative depart-ments of the University. These two de-partments are administered within theframework of the College of Arts andSciences. The two departments provideinstruction under the basic and ad-vanced Reserve Officers' Training Corps(ROTC) programs.

ScholarshipsBoth the Army and Air Force ROTC

offer full scholarships each year for stu-dents enrolling in the program. ROTCscholarships provide full payment oftuition, fees and books and $150.00 permonth subsistence allowance. Applica-tions for four-year scholarships may beobtained through local high school prin-cipals or advisers and the ROTC depart-ments. Information concerning three-year scholarships may be obtained bydirect contact with the ROTCdepartments located on campus inThatcher Hall.

FlexibilityROTC at OSU offers a variety of pro-

grams, giving the student considerableflexibility in charting a path to commis-sioning in the Army or the Air Force.Programs are designed so that individu-als in all OSU colleges, departments andmajors can tailor their academic/ROTCcurriculum in order to attain commis-sioned status. Opportunities also exist inboth Army and Air Force ROTC for thestudent to "test the water" early in his orher academic program by participatingin basic familiarization courses. Thoseinterested in learning more about ROTCat OSU, or in enrolling, are urged to con-tact the professor of aerospace studiesor professor of military science inThatcher Hall on campus.

Aerospace StudiesProfessor of Aerospace Studies and

Head Lt Col Russell D. Miller, M.S.

The basic, four-year Air Force ROTCprogram consists of one classroom hourand one leadership laboratory period perweek during the freshman and sopho-more years. Basic courses give students


a thorough backgroundin United StatesAir Force (USAF) structure and history,as well as drill and ceremony, militarycustoms and courtesies, and wear of theuniform. No military obligation is incurredby non-scholarship cadets enrolling inthe freshman- and sophomore-levelcourses. During the spring of the sopho-more year, students compete for selec-tion into the Professional Officer Corps(POC); those selected will attend either afour-or six week field training encamp-ment during the summer between thesophomore and junior years. For stu -

dents getting a late start into the Air ForceROTC program, there are both two- and.three-year programs that can lead toPOC entrance and eventual commission-ing.

Following completion of field training,students spend two years as POC ca-dets; academic courses consist of threeclassroom hours and one leadershiplaboratory per week, for three hours ofcredit per semester. Class work andlaboratory involvement are designed toprepare the student for his or her futurerole as a leader in the U.S. Air Force. Inaddition, students are given the opportu-nity to gain practical leadership experi-ence by holding various positions ofresponsibilityin the Cadet Corps. POCcadets not on three-or four-year scholar-ships are eligible for partial scholarshipsof $1000 per semester if they maintain atleast a 2.35 semester GPA.

All students have the opportunity toparticipate in various corps-sponsoredextracurricular activities during the year.These include visits to active Air Forceinstallations to gain first-hand knowledgeof the duties of junior Air Force officers;cadets are often taken on incentiveflights in USAF aircraft. Cadets are alsogiven the option to apply for numeroussummer programs. These include ex-panded base visits, and even survivaltraining, free-fall parachuting, and glidertraining programs in conjunction with theU.S. Air Force Academy.

Students who successfully completethe POC program are commissioned assecond lieutenants in the United StatesAir Force, with a four-year obligation.Those who are selected for pilot or navi-gator training incur a six- to eight-yearcommitment.

Military ScienceProfessor of Military Science and

Head LTC Charles T. Payne, M.A.

Students desiring to expand the scopeof their education, while preparing for adynamic and rewarding career as anofficerin the United States Army, activeduty, National Guard, or Army Reserve,

choose the Army Reserve Officer Train-ing Corps program(ROTC) as an adjunctto their chosen field of study. Withcourses dealing in a wide range of sub-jects from leadership to tactics, taughtboth indoors and out, the Army ROTCprogram produces 3,800 second lieuten-ants each year across the nation.

The Army ROTC program consists of abasic course and an advanced course.Students desiring to see what the pro-gram is like may enroll in up to 10 hoursof military science with no commitment tothe United States Army. During this basiccourse, emphasis is placed upon leader-ship, war gaming, individual skills, prob-lem solving, rappelling, and land naviga-tion. All lower-division ROTC courses areopen to the entire University communityregardless of year in school.

Students committing themselves to acommission in the United States Armyare permitted to enroll in the Army ROTCadvanced course upon completion of thebasic course or equivalent. The ad-vanced course consists of 12 hours ofacademic work taken during the juniorand senior year. In addition, participationin a six-week summer camp is manda-tory. The advanced course emphasizesfurther development of leadership skills,offensive and defensive tactics, physicalconditioning, ethics, military law, profes-sional and basic military knowledge andskills. Additionally, advanced coursestudents are responsible for use of re-quired military skills as they act as assis-tant instructors during laboratory periods,plan leadership laboratories, plan andconduct field training exercises and areresponsible for coordinating and super-vising departmental extracurricular ac-tivities.

All advanced course students mustsatisfy directed professional militaryeducation (PME) requirements prior toreceiving a commission. The PME con-sists of two essential parts-a baccalau-reate degree and at least one under-graduate course from each of the follow-ing fields of study: written communica-tion, military history, computer literacy,and math reasoning.

Students interested in the Departmentof Military Science are encouraged tovisit with departmental faculty' membersat any time for further information con-cerning departmental course offeringsand class sequence. A number of two-and three-year scholarships are avail-able through the department. Prior enroll-ment in military science is not a prerequi-site for departmental scholarship appli-cation.

MusicProfessor and Head William L.

Ballenger, M.A.

The music program at OSU servesstudents who plan careers in the field ofmusic as well as those who desire toparticipate in any element of a compre-hensive music program. Professionalinstruction prepares students for careersin performance, teaching, or the musicindustry. The OSU undergraduate de-grees are also excellent preparation forgraduate school and for church posi-tions.

The student planning to major in musicat the university level should consider hisor her background carefully. It shouldinclude a strong interest in music duringhigh school years and a talent for perfor-mance in vocal or instrumental music.Individual lessons, fundamental theoryknowledge, and basic piano ability willalso be helpful.

The music major may choose from thefollowing degrees: (1) Bachelor of Music(B.M.) in performance, (2) B.M. in instru-mental/vocal music education, (3) B.M.with elective studies in business, and(4) Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in music. Inaddition, the Bachelor of University Stud-ies allows the student to combine aninterest in music with another outsidefield.

The student majoring in a disciplineother than music may participate withmusic majors in all ensembles (choirs,opera, orchestra, wind ensemble, march-ing band, concert band, jazz bands, andchamber groups) and courses, as wellas individual lessons for academiccredit.

An active scholarship program pro-vides assistance to music majors as wellas non-majors. Students are invited towrite for audition information.

Faculty members, students and en-sembles present over 100 concerts andrecitals annually. The department alsosupports an active program of extensionand outreach opportunities.

The Department of Music is accreditedby the National Association of Schools ofMusic (NASM). Students wishing to majorin music should contact the Departmentof Music to arrange for an entrance audi-tion and interview.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Music offers a

Master of Music in pedagogy and perfor-mance. Consult the "Master's DegreePrograms" section of the "Graduate Col-lege" in the Catalog for general regula-tions and requirements relating to admis-sion.


The Master of Music in pedagogy andperformance combines the salient ele-ments of music performance and thepedagogy of music. Its intent is to adaptto the changing complexion of today'smusical world by melding the areas ofpedagogy and performance into a single,functional degree.

There are two tracks of study availableto students enrolled in the Master ofMusic in pedagogy and performance.The conducting track facilitates the de-velopment of rehearsal techniques, anunderstanding of the pedagogical issuessurrounding ensemble building, and theshaping of conducting skills. The appliedmusic track is designed for students whowish to hone their performing and peda-gogical skills on a specific instrument.

Students accepted to the Master ofMusic in pedagogy and performanceprogram are required to take a place-ment examination in music theory andhistory prior to their first semester of en-rollment. Prior to graduation, all studentsmust pass a final oral examination.

The following classes are required forstudents enrolled in the conductingtrack: MUSIC 5004, 5113, 5512, 5522,5712, 5722, 5733, 5742, 5750, 5973. Anadditional six hours of elective creditmust be earned toward this 32-creditdegree.

The following classes are required forstudents enrolled in the applied musictrack: MUSIC 4890, 5004, 5113, 5490,5733, 5750, 5842, 5973. An additionalfour hours of elective credit must beearned toward this 32-credit degree.Admission Requirements. To partici-pate in the pedagogy and performanceprogram, a student must first make appli-cation to the Graduate College. Prospec-tive students must have earned a Bach-elor of Music from an NASM accreditedinstitution, or the equivalent. Studentsinterested in the conducting track mustaudition on campus, or submit a video-tape of their conducting, and fill out thedepartment of music application foradmission. Students interested in theapplied music track must audition oncampus, or submit an audiotape of arecent performance (minimum of 20minutes of music), and fill..out the Depart-ment of Music application for admission.Financial Assistance. The Departmentof Music offers a myriad of assistantshipswith areas of specialization includingmusic appreciation, class piano, instru-mental techniques, accompanying, andmusic technology. Additional scholar-ships may be awarded through the De-partment of Music.

PhilosophyProfessor and Head Edward G. Lawry,

Ph.D.

Philosophy is an intellectual activity tobe practiced and a subject matter to bestudied. As an activity, philosophy seeksto analyze, evaluate, and often reformu-late the ideas, principles and argumentsby which experience is understood andexplained and by which action is di-rected and justified. Every area of experi-ence or behavior-aesthetic, political,religious, scientific or moral-is consid-ered by philosophy. The writings pro-duced by great philosophers are worthyof study as models of thought and asartifacts of historical influence and cul-tural significance. In this latter role phi-losophy is related to the development ofevery academic discipline.

Courses offered in philosophy fall intothree general groups: broad introductorycourses that cover a variety of topics,historical courses that proceed chrono-logically through a sequence of thinkers,and special topic or field courses. Someofferings combine the latter two charac-teristics. No undergraduate course isintended primarily for majors. The B.A.program in philosophy has been ap-proved for offering at the University Cen-ter at Tulsa.

Students may pursue work in philoso-phy as part of their general education, asa support to their major area of concen-tration, as a minor, as a major leading toa B.A. degree, as a second major or inconnection with a graduate program.The program in the major accommo-dates students of three sorts. The "gen-eral" track is designed for students whowish to explore philosophy as a generalpath to the refinement of their thinking,writing and speaking, and a deepeningappreciation of the most fundamentaland guiding ideas and values of civiliza-tion. It is a very flexible program, requir-ing two lower-division introductorycourses, two upper-division historicalsurvey courses and 19 hours of addi-tional unspecified philosophy coursesnumbered 3000 or above. The"preprofessional"track is designed forstudents who wish to ground their profes-sional interests (such as law, medicine,business, public service, the ministry), ona philosophic basis. Though require-ments are technically the same for thesestudents as ones on a general track, theyare assigned a second adviser whohelps to coordinate curricular and otheractivities for the best career preparationpossible. The "graduate preparation"track is designed for students who areinterested in pursuing graduate studiesin philosophy. It requires an additional six

hours of upper-division philosophy andmandates more specific courses thaneither of the other tracks. Students mayshift from track to track at any time in theirmatriculation without prejudice.

A minor or a second major in philoso-phy will complement any other area ofstudy. A philosophy minor requires 18hours of unspecified philosophy courses,12 of which must be numbered 3000 orabove.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Philosophy offers a

Master of Arts degree in philosophy.Consult the "Master's Degree Programs"section of the "Graduate College" in theCatalog for general regulations andrequirements relating to admission.

The Master of Arts degree in philoso-phy offers a broad-based curriculumdesigned to serve the interests of threekinds of students:1. Teaching Emphasis: for the student

who wishes to pursue his or her studyof philosophy and prepare for a careerteaching philosophy at a communitycollege or small four-year institution;

2. Professional Emphasis: for the studentwho wishes to pursue his or her studyof philosophy as a supplementtopreparation in a wide variety of profes-sions including business, law, govern-ment, the health professions, the minis-try, or counseling;

3. Ph.D. Emphasis for the student whowishes to pursue his or her study ofphilosophy as a preparation for Ph.D.studies in philosophy at another institu-tion.Students interested in the teaching

emphasis have the opportunity to internat a community college, take collateralcourses in second areas of teachinginterest, and incorporate course work inpedagogy in the College of Education atOSU. They will typically complete theirM.A. requirements under the "CoursesOption" (see below).

Students interested in the professionalemphasis have the opportunity to choosefrom a wide variety of courses that sup-port their career plans (biomedical eth-ics, business ethics, philosophy of law,philosophy of religion, and cognatecourses in other disciplines). They willtypically complete their M.A. require-ments under the "Reports Option" (seebelow).

Students interested in the Ph.D. em-phasis have the opportunity to enhancetheir understanding of the history of phi-losophy, logic, and metaphysics andepistemology. They will typically com-plete their M.A. requirements under the"Thesis Option" (see below).


Students in all of these programs areable to compete for teaching assistant-ships and may teach either CriticalThinking or Introductory Moral/SocialProblems courses.

The Master of Arts degree in philoso-phy may be earned through any of threeoptions: (1) Courses Option (usually 12three-credit-hourcourses); (2) ReportsOption (usually 10 three-credit-hourcourses and a two-credit-hourreport);and (3) Thesis Option (usually three-credit-hour courses and a six-credit-hourthesis). The Courses Option requires 36hours, the Reports Option requires 32hours and the Thesis Option requires 30hours.

Prerequisites for admission to theprogram are 24 semester credit hours (atleast .18 at the upper-division level) inphilosophy including courses in thehistory of ancient, medieval, and modernphilosophy (PHILO 3113 and 3213 orequivalents) and a course in logic(PHILO 4303 or equivalent). Studentswithout these prerequisites, but other-wise admissible, may be granted "quali-fied" or "provisional" status until the pre-requisites are satisfied.

All candidates for the Master of Arts inphilosophy degree are required to pass asix-hour written examination on selectedmajor Western philosophical works. Thisexam must be passed before a studentwill be allowed to begin work on either athesis or the report•and normally will betaken about two-thirds of the way throughthe required course work for the degree.Each student is supervised by a three-person advisory committee appointedfor, and in consultation with, the student.This committee arranges and adminis-ters the written examination, and is re-sponsible for determining the student'splan of study, thesis, report topics, andany other special requirements that mayneed to be fulfilled.Master of Arts in Philosophy, CoursesOption:Thirty-six hours of course work in classesand seminars approved by the student'sadvisory committee and/or the graduateadviser.Master of Arts in Philosophy, ReportsOption:1.Thirty hours of course work in classes

and seminars approved by thestudent's advisory committee and/orthe graduate adviser.

2. Two hours of PHILO 5910, in whichtwo research papers are prepared.These papers typically will have theirorigin in graduate seminars taken aspart of the plan of study, or in classesrelated to the professional field thestudent wishes to enter.

3.An oral examination and defense ofthese reports required in a formalpresentation to the departmental fac-ulty and additional invited persons withinterest or expertise in the topics.

Master of Arts in Philosophy, ThesisOption:1.Twenty-four hours of course work in

classes and seminars approved by thestudent's advisory committee and/orthe graduate adviser.

2. Six hours of PHILO 5000, in which awell-reasoned, substantial piece ofresearch on a narrowly defined topic iswritten as a thesis.

3.An oral examination and defense ofthe thesis before the departmentalfaculty and additional invited personswith interests or expertise in the topic.A student may also, in accordance

with the policies of the Graduate College,select a graduate minor in connectionwith any of the three programs, thuspermitting a concentration of work inbroad areas such as social thought,cognitive science, or religion. Interdisci-plinary work is encouraged for studentspursuing the Professional Emphasis andthe Teaching Emphasis.

Under the auspices of the Departmentof Educational Administration and HigherEducation (EAHED) and with the coop-eration of the Department of Philosophy,a student can earn the degree of Doctorof Education in higher education withspecial emphasis in philosophy. Generalrequirements concerning the Ed.D. inhigher education are listed in the "Doctorof Education" and "Educational Adminis-tration and Higher Education" sections ofthe Catalog.

Departmental acceptance is requiredfor admission to the M.A. program andthe Ed.D. program. Persons who meet thestated prerequisitesfor the M.A. degreeare encouraged to apply directly to theGraduate College for admission. Appli-cations are forwarded to the departmentfor evaluation and recommendation ofadmission status. Persons interested inthe M.A. program but who do not meetthe prerequisites should contact thehead of the department prior to applica-tion. Application for admission to theEd.D. program must be initiated throughthe Department of Educational Adminis-tration and Higher Education.

Students pursuing a master's ordoctor's degree in another field mayelect philosophy as a graduate minor:Selected courses and seminars in phi -

losophy can broaden and complementwork in such areas as economics, edu-cation, engineering, English, history,psychology, and sociology.

PhysicsRegents Professorand Head Stephen

W. S. McKeever, Ph.D.

In today's technological society, pro-fessionals in many diverse fields need topossess critical skills of observation andquantitative evaluation. Increasingly,persons trained in physics can be foundin career positions in finance, medicine,

. business and many other fields whereanalytical skills are now a necessity forcompetitive survival. The program inphysics at OSU is aimed at developingthese skills in both experimental andtheoretical settings. Curriculum plans areavailable for degrees in fundamentalphysics, or in applied programs thatcombine physics with biology, business,computer science, engineering, math-ematics, premedicine, and others.

During the first two years, the physicsprogram provides a basic, quantitativeand intuitive understanding of the physi-cal world, from the classical ideas ofNewton and Maxwell to the modernrelativistic and quantum laws of Einsteinand Schrodinger. At the same time,mathematics and computer skills aredeveloped in application to physicalproblems. After two years, a student inthe physics program may elect to pursuemore advanced courses in theoreticaland experimental physics, leading to aB.S. degree in physics and graduatestudies in physics, or a related field.Alternatively, the student may elect toreplace certain upper-division physicscourses with upper-division courses inone of the above mentioned fields, lead-ing to a B.S. degree in applied physics.

Continued communication, beginningwith the student's first semester in theDepartment of Physics, establishes aproductive rapport between the physicsmajor and his or her faculty adviser. Aphysics minor is also possible and therequirements can be obtained from thedepartment head.

Graduate ProgramsPrerequisites. Thirty semester hours ofphysics beyond the elementary coursework, and mathematics courses throughadvanced calculus and differential equa-tions are required.The Master of Science Degree. Stu-dents can choose between a thesis ornon-thesis option. The thesis optionrequires the successful completion of 30semester credit hours beyond the B.S.and the submission of an acceptablethesis (six credit hours of PHYSC 5000)based on original and independent re-search, on a topic chosen in consulta-tion with the student's adviser. The


student must successfully defend thethesis in an oral examination. In addition,nine semester credit hours of electivesmust be completed in physics, math-ematics or an allied field. The non-thesisoption requires 32 semester credit hoursbeyond the B.S. degree, including a onecredit hour seminar program, and twocredit hours of library research (PHYSC5000) on a topic chosen in consultationwith the student's adviser. The com-pleted written report must be orally pre-sented to the student's advisory commit-tee. Fourteen hours of electives areallowed within this program, including upto nine credit hours of senior levelcourses, depending upon the student'sbackground. For both options, the re-quired courses are PHYSC 5113, 5313,5413, 5453 and 5613. The electivesmust be chosen in consultation with thestudent's advisory committee. For ex-ample, an advanced course in math-ematics along with Solid State I and I Imay be reasonable choices for someonewith a materials specialization. For oth-ers, more courses in electrical engineer-ing may be preferable.

Also available is an M.S. program inphotonics, with a specialization in phys-ics, offered through the interdisciplinaryM.S. in natural and applied sciencesmajor, in association with the depart-ments of chemistry and electrical engi-neering. Students may pursue one ofthree options, all of which require 24credit hours of course work with at leastone course taken outside the student'sspecialization. Beyond this, the first op-tion (30 credit hours) requires an addi-tional six hours of research and a suc-cessful defense of a thesis. The secondoption (32 credit hours) requires anadditional six hours of course work and atwo-credit-hour report. The third option(36 credit hours) requires 12 additionalcredit hours of course work with a cre-ative component. For the second andthird options at least two courses must beoutside the field of specialization and asuccessful oral presentation of the reportor creative component may be required.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Priorto the appointment of the advisory com-mittee, as described in the "GraduateCollege" section of the Catalog, a com-prehensive written examination must betaken. This examination will cover thecontent of the course work required up toand including the M.S. degree, and willbe given once a year. It will be given infour parts of three hours each. The re-sults of this examination will be includedin a review by the Department of Physicsto determine whether the student shouldbe admitted to Ph.D. candidacy.

The following physics courses arerequired: PHYSC 5213, 5313, 5413,5453, 5613, 6313. Four additional

PHYSC prefix courses at the 5000 or6000 level, including at least one coursenot in the student's specialization, mustbe completed. Additional courses reflect-ing the candidate's specialization maybe required by the advisory committee.Ninety semester hours of credit beyondthe bachelor's degree are required. Aminimum of two-thirds of the graduatecourse credits must be in physics. Nomore than six credit hours of physics atthe 4000 level can be counted towardgraduate credit and no more than 12total credit hours in all subjects at the3000 or 4000 level can be counted to-ward graduate credit. Courses taken atanother institution will be evaluated by afaculty committee to determine whetherthey satisfy any requirements.

The most important single requirementfor the Ph.D. in physics is the presenta-tion of an acceptable dissertation whichrepresents original research work by thestudent and which demonstrates thestudent's ability to do independent studyas well as to plan and carry out futureresearch in his or her field.

Political ScienceAssociate Professor and Head

Michaael W. Hirlinger, Ph.D.

Political science is, on the one hand,an ancient discipline with roots in Platoand Aristotle, and on the other, it is one ofthe most recent of the social scienceswith roots in the early twentieth century.Political scientists study political institu-tions, the political behavior of individualsand groups, the formulation of publicpolicy, the relations among states, andalso enduring moral issues, such aswhat is justice and how leaders shouldbe chosen. Political science by its verynature blends normative and empiricalissues. Questions about democracy,participation, justice and representationhave both empirical and evaluative com-ponents. It attempts to understand whoparticipates in the political process and,when they do not, what it means for ademocratic society. There is fundamen-tal rethinking of the relations between theexecutive branch and the legislature, thedistribution of power between the na -

tional and state governments, and thepolicy and budget priorities of the Ameri-can people. It is a fascinating period inAmerican political history and a major inpolitical science offers the student a frontrow seat in the analysis of thesechanges.

The principal fields of study in politicalscience are political theory, public law,comparative politics, international rela-

tions, public administration, and Ameri-can political behavior. Students maypursue the Bachelor of Arts (45 hours ofpolitical science and related coursework in addition to General Educationand college requirements), or the Bach-elor of Science degree (51 hours ofpolitical science and related coursework in addition to General Educationand college requirements) in politicalscience with a concentration in any ofthe fields of study. Either degree optionrequires a minimum of 24 hours of politi-cal science courses numbered 3000 orabove. Additional courses numbered3000 or above from related areas ofeconomics, English, foreign languagesand literature, geography, history, phi-losophy, psychology, religion or sociol-ogy are necessary to reach the requiredhours of the degree option. The minimumGPA is 2.50 with a minimum grade of "C"in all upper-division political science andrelated upper-division course work.Additional flexibility in the degree pro-gram is offered through internships andopportunities to work with professors indeveloping independent study coursesin areas where the department may notoffer regular courses work. Students mayalso pursue political science as a sec-ond degree or as a minor to complementother areas of study. The minor in politi -

cal science requires 15 hours of coursework numbered 3000 or above, and mustinclude three fields of political science.At least three of the hours must be takenin a field other than American politics,public law, and public administration.The required GPA is 2.50.

The political science major preparesthe student for a wide range of careers,including administration of national, stateand local government agencies; prepa-ration for admission to law school; teach-ing at the secondary level; urban andregional planning; political journalism;the conduct and analysis of foreignpolicy; and preparation for graduatestudy in political science. At a moregeneral level, political science has greatcareer versatility for students. While themajor does focus on the subject matter ofgovernment and politics, it also developsstudents' critical analysis, effective writ-ten and oral communications, leadershipand judgment. Such skills, along with asubstantive knowledge of governmentand politics that are central to all aspectsof activity, prepare students for a widerange of options throughout their profes-sional lives.

Graduate ProgramsCandidates for the Master of Arts de-

gree in political science may choosefrom three plan options. Plan A is a tradi-tional political science option that per-


milts specialization in two areas of politi-cal science offered by the department.Students may choose from the followingsix areas: American politics, comparativepolitics, international relations, publicadministration, public policy, and womenand politics. The plan is designed toprepare professional political scientistsfor careers in research and teaching, aswell as government and public service.Plan B is for students interested in publicadministration.The objective of this planis to prepare students for careers in ad-ministrative and policy positions in local,state or national government. Plan C is aspecialization in fire and emergencymanagement. This program is designedto provide an educational foundation forthose who are currently serving or aspireto serve. as managers or administrators infire services or emergency management.Admission Requirements.Any studenthaving a bachelor's degree with anoverall 3.00 grade-point average (on a4.00 scale) is admitted as a student in fullstanding. Those with less than an overall3.00 grade-point average are consideredfor admission on a probationary basis.The Graduate Record Exam (GRE) is notrequired. As a prerequisite course, allgraduate students must have completedan undergraduate statistics class, ormust be willing to take such a classduring their first semester as a graduatestudent.

PsychologyAssociate Professor and Head

Maureen A. Sullivan, Ph.D.

The student pursuing a B.A. or B.S inpsychology is provided with a back-ground which can be of great value indealing with the personal, social andvocational areas of his or her life. Thecourse of study applies the scientificmethod to the study of the behavior of anindividual and behavior between indi-viduals. The understanding of such ma-terial can be directly related to function-ing in a job or career.

A bachelor's degree in psychology isuseful in a wide number of occupationsin business, education and industry. Therange of positions obtained by graduatescovers almost all occupations requiringdirect personal contact with otherpeople. Some examples are supervision,training, sales, public relations and inter-viewing. Also included are positions withcity, state and federal agencies, and inapplied research. Although there is nolicensure or certificate to teach psychol-ogy in the schools, it is possible to get ateaching certificate or licensure in socialstudies education with endorsement inpsychology while pursuing a major inpsychology. Persons interested in suchteaching should contact the Office ofTeacher Education. (See "Teacher Edu-cation Programs" in the "College of Edu-cation" section of the Catalog.)

Graduate ProgramsEmployment in the professional field of

psychology requires a graduate degree.Psychologists with advanced degreeshave exclusive claim to some profes-sional positions.

The Department of Psychology offerstwo programs of study leading to thedegree of Doctor of Philosophy, one inclinical psychology and one in experi-mental psychology. Students applying forthe doctoral degree should have thefollowing prerequisites: introductorypsychology, quantitative psychology,experimental psychology, history andsystems.

Courses in religious studies are a vitalpart of a liberal arts education. The fieldinvolves the objective study of religiousbelief, literature and practice around theworld. Opportunity is given for seriousand objective study of these aspects inrelation to major religions of past andpresent cultures. Special attention isgiven to the historical bases of worldreligions as well as to their effect uponpresent-day societies, in both the Eastand West. Courses are offered in severalworld religions, biblical studies, religiousthought, and religion and culture.

Courses are open to all students with-out regard to personal views or affilia-tions. No attempt is made to promote aparticular view. Emphasis is placed onthe academic study of religion ratherthan the practice of a particular form ofreligion. The undergraduate coursesenable students to satisfy humanitiesrequirements and also provide an excel-lent background for many types of gradu-ate and professional programs.

SociologyAssociate Professor and Head Patricia

A. Bell, Ph.D.

Sociology is the scientific study ofhuman society and social behavior. Assuch, sociologists study a broad array ofsocial phenomena ranging from thedynamics of social interaction to thecomposition and workings of entire soci-eties.

Many different points of view are repre-sented in the areas of expertise of thedepartmental faculty. The diversity of thefaculty is reflected in many different types

of courses offered. Topics include com-munity organization, criminology andcorrections, gerontology, social prob-lems and deviance, environmental soci-ology and population studies, socialpsychology, industry and work, and ruralsociology. The department also offerscourses in anthropology, race andethnicity, and gender issues. The depart-ment emphasizes pure as well as ap-plied research. Many undergraduatemajors elect to have supervised work-related internship experiences in worksettings of their choosing.

Course offerings in anthropology pro-vide students with a basic introduction toconcepts and principles of physicalanthropology, archeology and culturalanthropology. Regular course offeringsinclude an emphasis on North AmericanIndian cultures and archaeology. Othercourses deal with anthropological meth-ods and theory.

The Department of Sociology offersB.A. and B.S. degrees in general sociol-ogy and applied sociology. The generalsociology degree provides students theopportunity to obtain a strong liberal artsdegree with a maximum number of elec-tives, and provides a good base for pur-suing a professional or graduate degreein sociology and in several other fields ofstudy. The applied options provide prac-tical experience for work in research anddata analysis, the helping professions,and fields dealing with social problems.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Sociology offers the

Master of Science and Doctor of Philoso-phy degrees. Programs are designed toprepare students for appointmentsto thefaculties of colleges and universities, towork in private industry and in socialservice agencies, and for research posi-tions in business and in government. Thedepartment offers concentrations inenvironmental sociology, complex orga-nizations, deviance and criminology, andsocial psychology. The department alsooffers a Master of Science degree withspecial emphasis in corrections.

The department offers employmentto alimited number of graduate students asteaching assistants or as research assis-tants. These teaching and researchexperiences constitute an invaluablepart of the student's professional prepa-ration.Admission Requirements. Studentsseeking admission to graduate programsin sociology must be accepted by theGraduate College and the departmentalgraduate committee prior to official ad-mittance. A combination of several crite-ria are used to evaluate an applicant'ssuitabilityfor full admission to either of

SpeechCommunicationAssociate Professor and Head

Michael Stano, Ph.D., J.D.

The Department of Speech Communi-cation affords a variety of opportunitiesfor students who wish to become in-volved in the excitement of a changingworld. Not only does the department offeracademic subjects leading to both un-dergraduateand graduate degrees, butstudents are afforded an opportunity togain practical experience in inter-personal and public communication.

In speech communication, studentsare prepared for positions in industry andbusiness and are qualified to work withinterpersonal communication problems.Graduate work in this area increases thestudent's career opportunities in the fieldof communication consulting. In addition,the department's concern with relatedareas, such as sociology, business andpsychology, allows the admission ofgraduate students with undergraduatepreparation in some of these fields.

Graduate ProgramsPrerequisites. To enter the program, thestudent should have a minimum of 12semester credit hours of undergraduate


courses in speech communication or theequivalent.Admission Requirements. Applicantsnormally should have at least a "B"grade-point average at the undergradu-ate level and strong recommendationsfrom those familiar with the student'sprevious academic background. Beyondthat, the number of students admitted willdepend on the number of places avail-able in the program.Program Requirements. The complexityof today's society requires an individualcapable of solving a wide range of prob-lems. In order to meet this need, thespeech communication graduate pro-gram aims at producing: (1) individualscapable of fulfilling the role of a commu-nication consultant or interventionistwithin governmental, business and in-dustrial, public service, educational andcommunity organizations; (2) individualscapable of using methods and proce-dures of the behavioral sciences in in-vestigating and solving practical as wellas theoretical problems in communica-tion; (3) individuals with the backgroundto pursue graduate degrees in speechcommunication or other professionaldegrees; and (4) competent teachers ofcommunication for two-year and four-year colleges as well as the commonschools.

StatisticsProfessorand Head P. Larry Claypool,

Ph.D.

Statistics is the science of learningfrom data. It is concerned with the devel-opment of theory and with the applicationof that theory to the collection, analysisand interpretation of quantitative informa-tion.

Because statistics is important in manyscholarly disciplines, a degree in statis-tics provides the opportunity to enter notonly the statistics profession but alsomany other fields which make extensiveuse of statistics. The areas of applicationinclude agriculture, the biological sci-ences, engineering, the physical sci-ences, the social sciences, education,business and home economics, amongothers. Statistics also promises to beimportant in emerging endeavors suchas pollution and environmental research,energy utilization and health-care admin-istration.

Those who pursue the study of statis-tics should be interested in scientificinquiry and should have a good math-ematical background. In addition it isdesirable that they have a genuine inter-est in some other subject which usesstatistics.

Careers in government, industry andeducation, involving the disciplinespreviously mentioned, are open to thestatistics graduate. In government andindustry a statistician usually serves as aresearcher or as a consultant to re-search scientists and decision-makers.In education, of course, the teachingfunction is added to those of researchand consultation. In almost all careers,the statistician uses the computer.

The Statistical Laboratory operateswithin the department to provide statisti-cal consulting to researchers-bothfaculty and student-acrossthe campus.

The Department of Statistics offers theB.S. and M.S. degrees to those interestedin applications of statistics, and the Ph.D.degree to those who wish to make origi-nal contributions to the theory of statis-tics.

Graduate ProgramsAdmission Requirements. It is neces-sary to have an undergraduate degree,not necessarily in statistics or mathemat-ics, to begin a program of study towardthe master's degree in statistics. In someinstances, it may be advantageous tohave an undergraduate degree in an-other field. However, the student shouldhave acquired a good mathematicalbackground as an undergraduate. This

should be equivalent to the requiredmathematics courses in the bachelor'sprogram (MATH 2145, 2155, 2233,3013,4013). Students admitted to theprogram with deficiencies will be re-quired to remedy such deficiencies.The Master of Science Degree. TheMaster of Science degree in statisticsmay be completed by following one ofthe three plans listed in the "GraduateCollege" section of the Catalog. Nor-mally, the all-course work plan will beinitiated at the suggestion of the faculty.Each student will be required to attain anintroductory knowledge of some field ofapplication outside of statistics, math-ematics and computer science. Thisrequirement may be satisfied by havingtaken a three-hour graduate course in anapproved field of statistical application.Each student is required to have com-pleted COMSC 2113 or to have demon-strated competence in a procedure-oriented language such as FORTRAN.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. ThePh.D. requires the completion of 90hours beyond the B.S. degree. A maxi-mum of 30 of these credit hours may beearned by research for the dissertation.Each student will be required to attain anintroductory knowledge of some field ofapplication which may be satisfied bytaking two three-hour graduate coursesoutside the fields of statistics, mathemat-ics and computing. Each student is re-quired to have completed COMSC 2113or to have demonstrated competence ina procedure-oriented language such asFORTRAN.

The B.S. in accounting, including anauditing course, is acceptable in lieu ofthree years of required public account-ing experience required before a candi-date may take the Oklahoma CertifiedPublic Accountants' Examination. TheM.S. in accounting earned at OklahomaState University satisfies educationalrequirements for C.P.A. candidates in alljurisdictions of the United States.

Considerable electives are availablein both degree programs. Specializationin systems/auditing, financial reporting,or tax is possible in the M.S. in account-ing program.


Candidates for either of these degreesare encouraged to select some electivesin quantitative and behavioral scienceareas.

Graduate ProgramsThe Master of Science Degree. Thespecific objectives of the M.S. in ac-counting are to provide candidates witha greater breadth and depth than is pos-sible in the B.S. program, in order toprepare graduates for careers as profes-sional accountants in financial institu-tions, industry, nonbusiness organiza-tions, and public practice, and to de-velop judgmental ability in accountingand related areas. Advanced coursesprovide a theoretical base for insight intosignificant problems confronting theaccounting profession. In addition, aspecialty in taxation is available for inter-ested candidates. The candidate re-ceives assistance from the faculty inselecting a pattern of courses designedto prepare the student according to thechosen professional goals.

Graduates of recognized colleges anduniversities whose records indicateadequate intellectual capacity and desir-able personal characteristics may qualifyfor admission. The typical applicantadmitted to the program has a GMATscore of 525 or above and anundegraduate grade-point average of3.25 or above.Prerequisites. The following are re-quired: 24 semester hours of advancedaccounting; six semester hours of busi-ness law; business calculus; three se-mester hours each in finance, manage-ment, marketing, production, quantitativeanalysis, business policy, intermediatemicroeconomics; and six semester hoursin statistics. As many as eight semesterhours of course deficiencies may beremoved within the 32 semester hoursrequired for the degree.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. ThePh.D. in the College of Business Admin-istration with a major in accounting em-phasizes flexibility to meet the particularneeds and objectives of individual candi-dates. The program is designed to pro-vide the highest degree of preparation forthe individual student, enabling the stu-dent to make significant professionalcontributions in research, teaching, or inbusiness or government positions.

Graduates of recognized colleges anduniversities whose records indicateadequate intellectual capacity and desir-able personal characteristics may qualifyif they have a good academic record andachieve satisfactory scores on theGMAT. Admission is competitive.

The Ph.D. program is designed so thata candidate may, at his or her option,

specialize in one of the following ac-counting areas: auditing, managerialaccounting, financial accounting sys-tems, or taxation. All candidates arerequired to take a series of seminars thatprovide an overview of relevant aca-demic literature. These seminars arerestricted to Ph.D. candidates. Two minorareas, one of which may be outside theCollege of Business Administration, arerequired, in addition to competence ineconomics and quantitative analysis.The candidate's advisory committee isresponsible for assisting in the develop-ment of a plan of study encompassingthe above areas.

Economics andLegal Studies inBusinessProfessor and Head Joseph M.

Jadlow, Ph.D.Economics is a science of choice. The

study of economics centers aroundindividuals' attempts to improve theirli ving standards. It provides a compre-hensive view of how a society is orga-nized to transform the limited resourcesavailable into want-satisfying goods andservices. It investigates the principlesunderlying the operation of the economicsystem, and seeks to determine its weak-nesses and to prescribe policy measuresthat will improve its operation. In theprocess it ranges over a host of the mostimportant problems confronting contem-porary society-the causes of and rem-edies for depression and inflation, thedeterminants of and methods for improv-ing income distribution, poverty problemsand welfare measures, the role of thegovernment in economic activity, therequisites for economic growth anddevelopment, pollution and congestionand their control.

The primary objectives sought in theundergraduate curriculum are to developa broad understanding and perspectiveof the economic aspects of people'sactivities, coupled with thorough trainingin the fundamental tools of economicanalyses. Toward these ends, the devel-opment of elementary mathematical andstatistical skills is highly desirable, as iscomplementary study in the social andbehavioral sciences, accounting andbusiness administration.

A major in economics prepares stu-dents for positions with business firms,nonprofit private organizations and gov-ernment agencies-both national andinternational. It provides an excellentbackground for the study of law andinternational relations. It qualifies compe-tent students to undertake the graduatework necessary for professional posi-tions in economic research and collegeor university teaching. A degree option inbusiness economics and quantitativestudies is offered to provide additionaltraining in analytical methods and com-munication skill for both public and pri-vate sector occupations.

General BusinessThe general business program gives

students a broad, comprehensive type ofbusiness education preparing them toenter employment in a wide range ofadministrative positions in private busi-ness, government, or non-profit organiza-tions. The scope of their educationalexperience enables these graduates toassume management positions in orga-nizations of varying sizes and ranges ofoperations.

Students majoring in general businesswill take general education or foundationcourse work in behavioral and socialsciences, communications, humanitiesand fine arts, natural science, mathemat-ics, and statistics, as well as businessfoundation courses in accounting, busi-ness communications, business law,economics, finance, management infor-mation systems, management, and mar-keting.

This major, which provides for a highdegree of individual student choice,includes required upper-division coursework beyond the business core in eachof the business disciplines as well assubstantial work in business or business-related courses, selected by the studentin consultation with his or her majoradviser.

AgribusinessThe major in agribusiness is offered in

cooperation with the Department of Agri-cultural Economics. Students pursuingthis major may obtain a Bachelor ofScience in Agriculture or Business Ad-ministration. Typically, a graduate of thisprogram would be prepared for employ-ment in the food industry by organiza-tions involved in the production, process-ing, distribution,marketing,transporta-tion, research, or supplying of food, foodproducts, or input for the production orprocessing of food products for human oranimal consumption.


The student will take regular generaleducation course work as well as foun-dation courses in agriculture and busi-ness administration. Additional upper-division course work in agricultural eco-nomics and business will be selected bythe student in consultation with his or hermajor adviser.

Graduate Programs

The department offers work leading tothe Master of Science degree and theDoctor of Philosophy degree. The gradu-ate program in economics prepareseconomists for academic careers as wellas research and administrative positionsin business and government agencies.

Graduate fields of specialization in-clude monetary economics, public fi-nance, international economics, eco-nomic development, econometrics, laborand human resource economics, indus-trial organization, and urban and re-gional economics. In addition, graduatecourses are offered in the history of eco-nomic thought and in mathematicaleconomics.

The initial admission to a graduateprogram is determined by an electedgraduate studies committee on the basisof the applicant's previous academicrecord; verbal, quantitative and analyticalscores of the Graduate Record Examina-tion; and letters of recommendation.The Master of Science Degree. Admis-sion to the master's program in econom-ics is granted to college graduates withsuperior academic records whosepreparation has been broad and thor-ough. They need not have majored ineconomics as undergraduates but mustbe well grounded in economic funda-mentals. A good background in one ormore such fields as history, philosophy,mathematics, statistics, political science,English, sociology, accounting, finance,psychology, or management is particu-larly helpful to the graduate student ineconomics. An applicant whose priorpreparation is deficient in some respect,may, if otherwise qualified, be admitted tothe program but will be required to re-move the deficiency, increasing some-what the time needed to complete workfor the degree.

Each graduate student is guided in thepreparation of a program of study by agraduate studies committee. At themaster's level there are two options. Oneoption provides the student with a well-rounded program that avoids prematurespecialization in some particular area ofeconomics. The candidate for themaster's degree is required to showcompetence in basic economic theoryand statistical methods, together with anunderstanding of the fundamental institu-

tional operations of the United Stateseconomy. The second option is in ap-plied economics which stresses commu-nication skills, quantitative analysis andcourse work from other disciplines re-lated to their career objectives.

Each program contains enough elec-tives to permit considerable choiceamong areas of emphasis. A researchreport or thesis is required of all studentswho take only the M.S. degree. Thoseaccepted for the Ph.D. program have theoption of applyingfor and receiving theM.S. degree without the research reportupon successful completion of the Ph.D.qualifying examination and the filing ofan approved Ph.D. thesis topic with theGraduate College. A foreign language isnot required.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Ad-mission to the doctoral program in eco-nomics is granted to college graduateswho have satisfactorily completed atleast one year of graduate work in eco-nomics and who have superior aca-demic records.

This program stresses balancedpreparation in economic theory and inmathematics and statistics, as well ascompetence in subject-area fields ofspecialization.The student is required topass qualifying examinations in thetheory core and in one field of specializa-tion. (The theory core is not considered afield of specialization.) Competencemust be demonstrated in second andthird fields of specialization, eitherthrough course work or by passing aqualifying examination in each field. Anadvisory committee helps the studentplan a program of study to achieve theseobjectives. A foreign language is notrequired.

A dissertation based upon originalresearch.is required of the candidate fora Ph.D. degree in economics. A final oralexamination deals principally with thedissertation and fields to which it is mostclosely related.

FinanceAssociate Professor and Head Janice

W. Jadlow, Ph.D.

There are financial implications invirtually all organizational decisions,whether the organization is a businessfirm, a nonprofit organization, or a gov-ernment. Thus, financial executives areof central importance to overall planningand control, and nonfinancial executivesmust know enough finance to work thefinancial implications into their areas ofexpertise. The increasing importance offinance for any organization has accom-

panied the evolution of the field of fi-nance itself.

Finance has evolved since the early1900s from a descriptive to an analyticaldiscipline recognized as a genuinescience. Finance builds on economictheory to focus on both sides of the orga-nization's balance sheet, asset analysisand the optimal mix of liabilities andequity, including the implications of in-vestor portfolio theory for the firm. Fi-nance consists of three interrelated coreareas: financial markets and institutions,investments and portfolio theory, andmanagerial (business) finance. Othertopics interwoven within these coreareas include international finance,futures and options, bank management,insurance, real estate, and personalfinance, Recent issues of emphasisinclude deregulation of financial institu-tions, the implications of telecommunica-tions on financial information and deci-sions, innovative methods of financinglong-term investments, and the influenceof inflation on interest rates.

The primary objective of the under-graduate finance curriculum is to de-velop a broad understanding of the finan-cial aspects of the activities and deci-sions and to provide thorough training inthe fundamental tools of financial analy-sis. Toward these ends, the study offinanceis complemented with the devel-opment of elementary mathematical andstatistical skills and with study in eco-nomics, accounting, and business ad-ministration. The major in finance isintended to prepare students for posi-tions with a wide variety of organizationsthat require special understanding offinancial analysis, financial managementand financial systems.

Finance majors entering the corporateworld may begin in one of several posi-ti ons. A career in financial managementcan lead to a major executive position,including chief executive officer. Thepositions within managerial financeinclude capital budgeting analyst, dailycash manager, credit analyst, financialanalyst (who works closely with accoun-tants), and property manager.

Alternatively, finance majors maychoose to enter the financial servicesindustries. Career possibilities include:the banking industry as a loan officer,retail bank manager, or a member of thetrust department; the securities industryas a stockbroker or account executive, asecurities analyst, investment banker, orfinancial planner; and the insuranceindustry as an agent or underwriter.


Graduate ProgramsConcentrations in finance are offered

through the Master of Business Adminis-tration and Doctor of Philosophy de-grees.The Master of Business AdministrationDegree. (See "Business Administration.")The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. APh.D. in business administration withconcentration in finance prepares thestudent for careers in academia, busi-ness or government.

The program is designed to meet theneeds and objectives of individual stu-dents, but all students will seek an in-depth understanding of the theoreticalfoundations of financial economics anddevelop research competency, and willdevelop teaching skills. The small classsize provides a supportive environmentconducive to the exchange of ideas andthe developmentof new insights by bothfaculty and students.

Students will select finance as theirmajor area of study. Two areas of con-centration are also to be selected. Assupport for the major field of study, eachstudent is required to attain graduatelevel competence in economic theoryand quantitative methods.

Prerequisitesfor admission to theprogram are appropriate basic coursesin calculus, statistics and computerscience.

Competence in planning and execut-ing research is demonstrated by a dis-sertation. In addition, each candidatemust pass comprehensive qualifyingexaminations and a final oral examina-tion on the dissertation itself.

Outstanding students with degrees inany field of study may apply. Applicationsfor admission are evaluated on the basisof (1) undergraduate and graduategrade-point averages, (2) score on theGraduate Management Admissions Test,(3) a two- or three-page statement de-scribing goals and academic interests,(4) three letters of recommendation,(5) evidence of research potential, and(6) a personal interview when feasible. Itis the applicant's responsibility to seethat all materials related to these criteriaare received by the Department of Fi-nance.

Management

Professor and Head Wayne A.Meinhart, Ph.D.

The majority of accomplishments incontemporary society are createdthrough organization and group effort.

Whether the goals are to realize successin business or solve the pressing prob-lems of society, organizational systemsmust be effectively managed in order tomaximize the probability of success.

As an area of study, the field of man-agement offers dynamic, exciting possi-bilities to students interested in businesscareers, careers with complex nonbusi-ness organizations, and to students whoseek the challenge of working on rele-vant, real-world problems. The field ofmanagement is concerned with theanalytical process and the application ofrelevant theory and research to creativebusiness problem solving. Examples ofsuch challenges include designingorganizational systems leadership; moti-vating people; planning courses of ac-tion; and efficiently allocating and utiliz-ing resources. Since people in the field ofmanagement deal with real-world prob-lems, the student should have a deepinterest in applying knowledge in prob-lem-solving situations. Examples of thekinds of knowledge applied include, butare not limited to, behavioral science,economics, mathematics and statistics,management information systems, com-munications skills, accounting, andnecessary knowledge of theory andmethods in management and manage-ment science. It is not necessary forstudents to have interests in each ofthese areas since the field offers sub-stantial opportunities for specialization.

The curriculum for the bachelor'sdegree requires of all students a com-mon foundation of work in the disciplineslisted above. Students are then guidedinto advanced work in these areas and intheir applications of courses in manage-ment, management science, and man-agement information systems. Four de-gree programs are available for choicebased upon the student's interest inspecialized work. Each program empha-sizes the knowledge bases and applica-ti ons that will be useful in a rapidlychanging world.

ManagementThe major in management is designed

to prepare students for leadership ca-reers as managers with business ornonprofit organizations. It emphasizesthe study of management systems andproblems. Majors are typically employedby organizationsof all types and sizes asmanagers, management trainees or staffspecialists. The field of managemerithasmuch to offer those interested in leader-ship roles in business and public sectororganizations.

Human ResourceManagement

The option in human resource man-agement is designed to prepare studentsfor careers in personnel and humanresource management. Anything thatconcerns the work force of an organiza-tion is the concern of the personnelmanager. This includes working withlabor relations and collective bargaining,forecasting the demand for personnel,attracting potential employees, orientingthem and then developing the careers ofthose employed. For those who enjoyworking with both data and people, acareer in personnel management offersmany opportunities and the chance forpersonal growth and development.

ManagementInformation Systems

The major in management informationsystems (MIS) prepares students for workin information systems development andoperation. Both applications of computersystems technology and understandingof data and information flows among thefunctional areas of business are empha-sized. The continuing integration of thecomputer in all aspects of business andthe critical need for responsive manage-ment information systems has created astrong demand for graduates who areknowledgeable about both informationsystems and business. The first two yearsof study involve the study of mathemat-ics, statistics, and computer science aswell as English, accounting, economics,psychology and other courses designedto develop a broad educational back-ground. The junior and senior yearsfocus on aspects of information systemsand computer technology includingprogramming languages, data basemanagement, arti-ficial intelligence,systems analysis, data communicationsystems, and management science meth-ods. Coverage of functional areas pre-pares MIS graduates to understand theinformation needs of complex businessorganizations for which information sys-tems are developed.

Management Scienceand Computer Systems

The major in management scienceand computer systems is designed toprepare students for careers as staffmanagers in complex businesses ornonprofit organizations. There is a highdemand for persons with advancedquantitative and computer competencywith a knowledge of business systems.


Many students have a special interest inbuilding concentrations in managementsystems and computer science. Themanagement science and computersystems program is ideal for this pur-pose. Examples of topics covered in-clude managerial decision theory, op-erations research, systems analysis,management information systems andoperations management. The study ofmanagement science and computertopics may be combined with advancedwork in related disciplines for those withappropriate interests. Management sci-ence and computer systems majorstypically enter business or public organi-zations as management systems ana-lysts, computer systems analysts, ormanagement trainees. Many also under-take graduate study to further their pro-fessional education.

Graduate ProgramsThe Department of Management offers

MarketingProfessor and Head Joshua L. Wiener,

Ph.D.

Marketing is an exciting field of studyin which a wide variety of job opportuni-ties exist. It is also an excellent founda-tion study for eventual movement to topmanagement within an organization.

Marketing is concerned with the identi-fication of wants and needs by consum-ers and the development of products,distribution channels, price and commu-nication methods to best satisfy those

wants and needs. Our economic systemis dependent on the ability of organiza-tions to match resources with needs. Assuch, firms become more marketing-oriented every year.

A marketing graduate will likely beinvolved in performance and manage-ment of many different traditional areas ofdecision-making-sales, advertising,logistics and marketing research. Inaddition, one will frequently assist inproduct planning, developing marketinginformation systems, and general man-agement.

The effective marketing executivetoday must develop a perspective andcapability that reflect a four-dimensionalprogram of study: (1) a liberal educationin the sciences, humanities, behavioraland social sciences, mathematics andcommunications; (2) an adequate knowl-edge of the major functional areas ofbusiness; (3) a high-level competency inmarketing; and (4) study in a supportivefield. Liberal education is emphasizedduring the freshman and sophomoreyears. The study of the functional areasof business begins in the sophomoreyear and continues into the junior year.During the junior and senior years, thefocus is on marketing. In addition to theintroductory course, which provides anoverview of the field of marketing, thestudent will take courses in consumerbehavior, promotion, sales management,marketing research, channels and mar-keting policy. While studying marketing,one typically selects courses in fieldssuch as management, finance, statistics,advertising/public relations, internationalbusiness, and other fields to support aparticular career choice within the mar-keting field.

The following courses arerequired as a core to provide a founda-tion in the nature of the learner, in the artof teaching, in program development,and in the background of the field: OAED5203-Foundationsof Adult and Continu-ing Education, OAED 5213-Characteris-tics of Adult Learners, OAED 5233-Needs Analysis, OAED 5253-Instruc-ti onal Strategies for Adults, OAED 6871-Doctoral Seminar I, OAED 6881-DoctoralSeminar II.

Each student is expected to identifycourses to support the core courses thatwill provide a complete program for satis-fying the student's educational goals inthe program. These courses may includeadditional courses in adult education orhuman resource development, additionalfoundation courses as needed, a block ofcourses in another area that represents acognate area of study, and courses fromany department in the University.

Research requirements include thethree areas of (1) a basic knowledge ofresearch design, (2) quantitative re-search methods, and (3) qualitative re-search methods. In addition, one othercourse in either quantitative or qualitativemethods is required.

In order to tailor the doctoral programto meet the specific needs of each stu-dent, students may include self-directedactivities in their plans of study. Theseinclude directed independent study ofspecial topics under OAED 5340 andinternships under OAED 5880 or OAED6880. Students should work with theircommittee chair and program committeemembers in designing these self-directedactivities. Since conducting independentresearch is a requirement of the Ed.D.degree and an expectation of all doctoralstudents, the plan of study must contain10 dissertation hours.Application Procedures and Admis-sion Requirements.

Engineers, engineering technologists,and architects, working side by side,constitute one of the most powerfulagents for change in our society. Newways are found to control the environ-ment, to utilize the resources and forcesof nature and to increase productivity ofneeded goods and services, in short, toimprove the quality of life for all.

Most of the work of engineers, tech-nologists and architects is concernedwith the conception, design, fabrication,maintenance and testing of devices,processes, installations, and systemsthat serve human needs. This work pro-vides ample opportunity to express cre-ativity. It requires an ability to make deci-sions.

The professionals and semi-profes-sionals who will be largely responsiblefor the shape of the world in the year2000 and beyond include those now inhigher education. The power they willexercise makes an exciting prospect andpresents a sobering responsibility.Theeasy problems are usually solved firstand are now a part of history. Many diffi-cult problems remain. The need for tal-ented and highly trained people is obvi-ous; one will be embarking on a lifetimeof challenge if he or she decides to pre-pare for a career in engineering, engi-neering technology or architecture atOklahoma State University.

CEAT Honors ProgramThe Honors Program provides oppor-

tunities for challenges for undergraduate


students of unusually high ability, motiva-ti on and initiative. Honors classes, semi-nars and independent study courses arestructured to put interested students andteachers together in ways which encour-age discussion and a mature approachto learning.

Each honors course completed withan "A" or "B" grade is identified on thestudent's transcript as such. A specialbachelor's degree honors diploma isconferred upon graduation for success-ful completion of all Honors Programrequirements.

Qualified high school scholars areeligible for the Honors Program begin-ning with their first enrollment at OSU asfreshmen. Eligibility is based on a com-posite ACT score of 27-29 and a highschool grade-point average of 3.75 orhigher, or an ACT score of 30 or higherwith a 3.50 high school grade-pointaverage. Students other than new fresh-men may enter the Honors Program ifthey have a cumulative grade-pointaverage of at least 3.25. Students shouldcontact the OSU Honors Program, 509Edmon Low Library, for eligibilityforms.Honors Recognition. The General Hon-ors Award is earned by completing aminimum of 21 honors credit hours withgrades of "A" or "B." At least three honorscredit hours must be completed in eachof four of the following areas: (1) English,speech communication and foreignlanguages (2000 level or higher),(2) humanities, (3) mathematics, statisticsand computer science, (4) natural sci-ence, (5) social science, and (6) othercourses with honors credit. Three of the21 credit hours must be in a specialhonors seminar or an interdisciplinaryhonors course. A 3.50 or higher cumula-tive grade-point average is required atthe time of the award. Completion of theGeneral Honors Award is noted on thestudent's official transcript.

The College Honors Award is earnedby completing a minimum of 12 honorscredit hours in upper-division courseswith grades of "A" or "B." The 12 credithours must include a senior honorsthesis or senior honors project with apublic presentation of the results. A 3.50or higher cumulative grade-point aver-age is required at the time of the award.Completion of the College Honors Awardis noted on the student's official tran-script.

Students who complete a minimum of39 honors credit hours with grades of "A"or "B" and have received both the Gen-eral Honors Award and the CollegeHonors Award will be granted thebachelor's degree with honors. Thisrecognition is reflected on the student'sofficial transcript and on a special honorsdiploma.

ScholarshipsSeveral scholarships are funded

through private donations, alumni gifts,and industries, and vary in amounts from$400 to over $2,000 per year.

These scholarships are available forfreshman through senior students, andare awarded primarily on the basis ofacademic achievement and leadershippotential. However, during the selectionprocess consideration may be given tofinancial need and other factors. Fresh-man students should normally have anACT composite score of 29 or higher andbe in the top 10 percent of their highschool graduating class to be competi-tive for CEAT scholarships.

Each school or department within theCollege normally has scholarship fundsavailable. These are administeredthrough that school or department ratherthan through the College's scholarshipcommittee. However, a separate applica-tion form is not required.

Scholarship application forms fortransfer students may be obtained bycontacting the Office of Student Aca-demic Services, CEAT, 101 EngineeringNorth, OSU, Stillwater, OK 74078.

Freshman scholarship applicationsshould be completed and on file by Feb-ruary 1 preceding the academic year forwhich the student expects to receive thescholarship in order to assure full consid-eration. The OSU Freshman Fee Waiverand Scholarship form should be submit-ted to the Office of University Scholar-ships. Since copies of these applicationsare forwarded to CEAT, a separate appli-cation is not required.

Continuing students should submitscholarship applications to the head ofthe school in which they are majoringprior to May 1. In this manner they willalso be considered for any departmentalscholarships for which they may beeligible as well as for any CEAT scholar-ship. Students who have not selected amajor should submit their applications tothe Office of Student Academic Services.

Concurrent EnrollmentIf a student expects to apply credits

toward a degree at OSU that are to beearned at another institution or throughcorrespondence or extension, whileenrolled in one of the programs of theCollege of Engineering, Architecture andTechnology, permission must be ob-tained in advance. It is the belief of thefaculty of the College that such enroll-ment detracts from the educational pro-cess at this institution, and can be justi-fied only in the most unusual circum-stances. Normally, if the material forwhich such permission is sought is avail-

able at OSU, permission will not begranted, nor will retroactive permissionbe granted in any circumstances.

Calculators andComputers

An engineering, architecture or tech-nology student is expected to beequipped with an appropriate calculatoror computer. Necessary functions in-clude exponential functions, the loga-rithm and inverse logarithm functions inboth natural base and base 10, and thetrigonometric and inverse trigonometricfunctions.

While students may find their ownpersonal computers to be a conve-nience, computer classrooms and labsare available to meet student needs.

High School PreparationBeginning engineering students who

have completed two units of algebra andone each in plane geometry and trigo-nometry/analysis in high school shouldbe prepared to enter at the expectedlevel in mathematics. In addition, stu-dents who can should obtain high schoolcredit in one unit of general chemistryand one unit of general physics, andstudents will benefit from taking calculus,if available.

Oklahoma State University offerscourse work in algebra, trigonometry andpreparatory chemistry for students whowere unable to obtain this work duringhigh school. However, such credit doesnot count toward the minimum number ofsemester hours specified for the B.S.degree in engineering.

General chemistry, college algebraand trigonometry credits may counttoward B.S. degrees in engineering tech-nology, and general chemistry may beused as an elective in architecture.


For students in Engineering, Architec-ture and Technology, courses in thehumanities and social sciences provideboth a broadening of the education andessential background for addressing thecritical issues in society. Students shouldcontact an adviser in the CEAT Office ofStudent Academic Services to selectsequences of courses that meet both ofthese objectives and satisfy the OSUgeneral education requirements.


Schools of EngineeringEach of the schools of engineering

offer bachelor's, master of (designated)engineering, master of science, anddoctor of philosophy degree programs.The curricular objectives in each engi-neering program are to develop eachstudent's: (1) capability to delineate andsolve in a practical way the engineeringproblems of society, (2) sensitivity to thesocially-related technical problemswhich confront the profession, (3) under-standing of the ethical characteristics ofthe engineering profession and practice,(4)understanding of the engineeringresponsibility to protect both occupational ,;and public health and safety, and(5) ability to maintain professional com-petence through life-long learning.

The Professional SchoolConcept

In accord with the professional natureof a career in engineering, a studententering OSU is admitted into the pre-engineering program, consisting of thecourse work normally taken the first twoyears of an engineering curriculum. Nearthe completion of the pre-engineeringcourse work, the student is consideredfor admission to one of the professionalschools of the College to continue in theupper-division program. Upon meeting'admission standards the student thenpursues a curriculum leading to the B.S.degree with an optional additional yearleading to a master's degree in his or herdiscipline.

re-engineering Program. The contentof the pre-engineering program is similarfor most engineering specialities, andincludes course work devoted to math-ematics through calculus and differentialequations, communication skills, generalchemistry, general physics, engineeringsciences, social sciences, and humani-ties.Bachelor of Science. Upon formal ad-mission to the professional school of hisor her choice, the student proceedsthrough the junior and senior years of thedegree program, fulfilling "Major Require-ments" as listed on the degree require-ments sheets in the publication Under-Graduate Programs and Requirementsthat is considered a companion docu-ment to the Catalog.master of Engineering.The Master ofspecific school) Engineering degree

programs are designed to prepare thegraduate for the practice of the engineer-ing profession in industry and govern-ment. They are distinguished by particu-lar emphasis on developing in studentsthe ability to perform effectively in designand developmentwork; the programs

normally include internship experiencesas a part of the academic process.

Admission to one of these programsalso depends upon being accepted byone of the professional schools. The totalprogram consists of all undergraduatedegree requirements, and a 32-semes-ter-credit-hourstudy program in gradu-ate-professional status meeting GraduateCollege requirements for a Plan IIImaster's degree. At least 24 semesterhours must be at the 5000 level, includ-ing six to eight hours of professionalpractice.

The professional school plan of studywhen filed with the Graduate Collegebecomes the preliminary plan of study forthe graduate portion of the program. A

. separate final plan of study must be filedwith the Graduate College by the end ofthe second week of the term duringwhich all requirements for graduation areto be completed.Master of Science and Doctor of Phi-losophy. These degree programs areavailable in each engineering school toprepare engineers for careers in ad-vanced engineering, research and de-velopment. The programs are describedunder each school's headings, and inthe "Graduate College" section of theCatalog.

Admission RequirementsAll new engineering students are first

admitted to the pre-engineering program.Regardless of previous background allnew engineering students must enroll inENGR 1111. Transfer students will not beadmitted if performance in the most re-cent semester of transfer credit, wouldhave placed the student on probation ifenrolled in pre-engineering at OklahomaState University.

Nonresident transfer students will beadmitted directly to pre-engineering ifthey appear to have the ability to makesatisfactory progress toward an engi-neering degree as indicated by the fol-lowing:

1.An overall GPA of at least 2.70, and2. A GPA of at least 2.50 over all math-

ematics, physical science, engi-neering science and engineeringcourses, and

3. A GPA of at least 2.00 (in at least 12hours if a full-time student) in themost recent semester completed.

For these purposes, all GPAs arecalculated using only the last grade inany repeated course.

Nonresident transfer students notdirectly admissible to pre-engineeringbut those who meet OSU requirementsfor admission may be admitted to Univer-sity Academic Services for one or two

semesters in order to fully evaluate theirqualifications for admission to pre-engi-neering. After grades are received eachsemester, such students may be evalu-ated and, if qualified, will be admitted topre-engineering.

Students transferring to pre-engineer-ing from another major at OSU or Univer-sity Academic Services must meet thesame requirements for admission as astudent transferring from another collegeor university.

Transfer students who have com-pleted all lower-division course require-ments may, with the school head's per-mission, be allowed to take selected3000-level engineering courses while inpre-engineering status.

International student applications mustbe received by June 15, November 1and April 1 for the fall, spring and sum-mer terms, respectively, to be consideredfor admission to pre-engineering.Admission to the ProfessionalSchools. In each school of engineeringthe lower-division course work is de-voted to qualifying the student for admis-sion to the professional school.

To be admitted to one of the profes-sional schools of engineering, the stu-dent must have:

1. Completed a minimum of 60 semes-ter credit hours in an accreditedinstitution of higher learning.

2. Demonstrated an acceptable levelof competence in subject materialcomparable to that covered in Pre-engineering, i.e., General Educationand Common Pre-engineering. Suchdemonstration may be by comple-tion of course work or by examina-tion with not more than half the re-quirements satisfied by examination.

3. Been formally accepted by a profes-sional school.

An acceptable level of competencefor admission to a professional schoolmay be demonstrated by:

a. Completion of the Pre-engineeringrequirements as designated on theflow chart corresponding to thestudent's matriculation date andmajor, with an overall grade-pointaverage of 2.30 or higher in thesecourses. Students may be deficientin no more than nine of these hours,and must have completed the re-quired sequences in calculus, gen-eral physics, general chemistry,English composition, and at leasttwo engineering science courses.

b. Final grades of "C" or better in allrequired English compositioncourses.

c. Completion at OSU of at least 12semester credit hours of courses


required for the degree, with agrade-point average of 2.30 orhigher in these courses. This mustinclude at least nine hours of techni-cal subjects with a GPA of 2.50 orhigher.

d. Achievement of an overall grade-point average of 2.50 or higher in therequired mathematics, physics,chemistry, engineering science andengineering courses completedprior to admission to a professionalschool and final grades of "C" orbetter in each of these courses.

For these purposes, all GPAs arecalculated using only the last grade inrepeated courses. Individual schoolsmay impose higher standards for admis-sion. Currently, the School of Electricaland Computer Engineering requires a2.60 and 2.70 respectively where 2.30and 2.50 are indicated in a., c., and d.above.

In addition, if the number of qualifiedprofessional school applicants to a givenprofessional school exceeds the numberthat can be provided a quality programwith the resources available, the numberadmitted each semester to that profes-sional school will be limited. In that event,priority for admission will be given first toOklahoma resident pre-engineeringstudents on a best qualified basis asdetermined by the grade-point averagein courses taken and completed at OSU.This practice will preserve the high stan-dards demanded of a quality educationalexperience sought by students and isnecessary so that OSU graduates willcontinue to be highly regarded.Admission to Graduate-ProfessionalStatus. To be admitted to graduate-professional status in a professionalschool in the CEAT, a student must havesatisfied requirementsfor a B.S. degreein engineering, meeting the criteria of theEngineering Accreditation Commissionof the Accreditation Board for Engineer-ing and Technology. Students with B.S.degrees in physics, chemistry, etc., mustcomplete work to meet ABET under-graduate requirements before gaininggraduate-professional status. Scholasticperformance as an undergraduate at alevel that indicates a high probability ofsuccess in a graduate program requiringa 3.00 minimum GPA on a 4.00 scale isalso a requirement.

Class PlacementThe selection of the initial chemistry

and mathematics courses for an enteringstudent in the College of Engineering,Architecture and Technology is deter-mined by the amount of and grades inmathematics or chemistry completed inhis or her high school program, and ACT

test scores. When appropriate, studentswith a strong background can obtainacademic credit by advanced standingexamination or by College Level Exami-nation Program (CLEP) tests.

Academic AdvisingThe College's Office of Student Aca-

demic Services provides advisement forall pre-engineering students. When astudent has gained admission to a pro-fessional school of engineering, he orshe will be assigned a faculty adviser inthe school.

Each student is personally advised inthe planning and scheduling of his or hercourse work and is counseled and ad-vised individually on matters of careerchoice, his or her activities at OSU, andon other academic matters. An aca-demic file is created for each student atthe time of initial enrollment.

Each student and his or her advisermust carefully select elective courses tomeet the curriculum objectives andaccreditation criteria. Specific criteriainclude appropriate computer-basedexperiences, knowledge of probabilityand statistics, competence in written andoral communications, an understandingof ethical, social, economic and safetyconsiderations, and engineering designexperiences that are integrated through-out the curriculum. The engineeringdesign experiences begin with ENGR1322 and culminate with a major engi-neering design experience specified onthe degree requirement sheet. The ad-viser assists the student in this effort andtries to assure accuracy and compli-ance; however, the ultimate responsibil-ity for meeting degree requirements restswith the student.


Opportunitiesto satisfy General Edu-cation requirements with requiredcourses in the schools of engineeringinclude:English. Students are required to com-plete a course in technical report writing.Thus, students making an "A" or "B" in thefirst English composition course (ENGL1113), need not take ENGL 1213, andmay take ENGL 3323, to meet both theGeneral Education requirement for En-glish and the College requirementfortechnical writing.Humanitiesand Social Science. Engi-neering students must complete a total of18 semester credit hours to meet thisrequirement. By taking American historyand political science, six additionalhours of social and behavioral sciences,and six hours of humanities, the 18 hours

will meet the University's requirements inthese areas. Humanities and SocialScience courses must be selected withthe assistance of a CEAT adviser in orderto assure compliance with accreditationrequirementsfor both breadth and depthand the University's requirement for anInternational Dimension.

Bio systems andicultural

EngineeringProfessor and Head Billy J. Barfield,

Ph.D., P.E.The School of Biosystems and Agricul-

tural Engineering is administered jointlyby the College of Engineering, Architec-ture and Technology and the College ofAgricultural Sciences and Natural Re-sources.

Biosystems engineers are profession-als who create and adapt engineeringknowledge and technologies for theefficient and effective production, pro-cessing, storage, handling and distribu-tion of food, feed, fiber and other biologi-cal products, while at the same timeproviding for a quality environment andpreserving natural resources. Specializa-tion is provided in emphasis areas oroptions of food and bioprocessing, envi-ronment and natural resources, biome-chanical, and general agricultural engi-neering.

Biosystems engineering coursesintegrate the engineering sciences withbiological sciences and teach studentsto design solutions to real problems ofsociety. Students work both as individu-als and in teams to solve real world de-sign problems provided by industrialfirms who hire biosystems engineers.

The goal of the biosystems degreeprograms is to produce graduates whopossess broad-based knowledge, skillsand judgment that prepare them to suc-ceed in the profession of engineering orin further studies at the graduate level. Toachieve this goal, the specific objectiveslisted below are integrated throughoutthe program.

In the preprofessionalportion of thebiosystems engineering program (usu-ally equivalent to two years of study) thefocus is on the underlying biological,physical, chemical and mathematicalprinciples of engineering, supplementedby appropriate general educationcourses in English, social sciences andhumanities. Students who demonstrateproficiency in this portion of the program


are eligible for admission to the profes-sional school in biosystems engineering.

The professional school of biosystemsengineering curriculum (typically twoears) builds systematically upon the

scientific knowledge acquired in thepreprofessionalcurriculum. In profes-sional school, students have the opportu-nity to focus on the option areas givenabove. Regardless of the option area, thedegree is accredited at the basic level bythe Engineering Accreditation Commis-sion of the Accreditation Board for Engi-neering and Technology under agricul-tural engineering and similarly namedprograms.

Each professional school coursebuilds upon preceding engineeringcourses to develop in the student theability to identify and solve meaningfulengineering problems. The course workis specifically sequenced and interre-lated to provide design experience ateach level, leading to progressively morecomplex, open-ended problems. Thecourse work includes sensitizing stu-dents to socially-related technical prob-lems and their responsibilities as engi-neering professionals to behave ethicallyand protect occupational and publicsafety. The program culminates in senioryear design courses in which studentsintegrate the analysis, synthesis andother abilities they have developedthroughout the earlier portions of theirstudy into a capstone experience. At thispoint, they are able to design compo-nents, systems and processes that meetspecific requirements, including suchpertinent societal considerations asethics, safety, environmental impact andaesthetics. The students have also de-veloped and displayed the ability toconduct experiments essential to spe-cific studies and to analyze the experi-mental results and draw meaningfulconclusions.

An integral part of this education con-t inuum from basic science through com-prehensive engineering design arelearning experiences that facilitate thestudents' abilities to function effectively inboth individual and team environments.Moreover, the program provides everygraduate with adequate learning experi-ences to develop effective written andOral communication skills. State-of-the-artcomputational tools are introduced andused as a part of their problem-solvingexperiences. Finally, the students' expe-

riences in solving ever-more-challengingproblems enables them to continue tolearn independently throughout theirprofessional careers.

A wide variety of employment opportu-nities are available for biosystems engi-neers in industry, public service andeducation. Some of these opportunitiesinclude positions in governmental agen-

cies, consulting, machinery industry,manufacturing and installation, andelectric power management industries.Biosystems engineers have careers inforeign countries as well.

Students interested in a degree inbiosystems engineering may initiallyenroll in either the College of Engineer-ing, Architecture and Technology or theCollege of Agricultural Sciences andNatural Resources. Students who enrollin the College of Agricultural Sciencesand Natural Resources should request abiosystems engineering adviser andtransfer to the College of Engineering,Architecture and Technology by the endof their first semester.

Graduate ProgramsThe School of Biosystems and Agricul-

tural Engineering offers three programsleading to post-baccalaureatedegrees:Master of Biosystems Engineering, Mas-ter of Science and Doctor of Philosophy.The Master of Biosystems Engineeringprogram places emphasis on design andinternship in engineering experience.The Master of Science and Doctor ofPhilosophy degrees emphasize researchand development.

ChemicalEngineeringProfessor and Head R. Russell

Rhinehart, Ph.D.Chemical engineers apply chemical,

physical, engineering, economic andsafety principles to solve important prob-lems and to supply vital materials fortechnology-based civilization. Chemicalengineers work in industries such aspharmaceuticals, fuels, industrial chemi-cals, bioengineering semi-conductors,materials and much more. Chemicalengineering also includes energy con-servation and pollution control. Theemphasis on chemistry and the chemicalnature of everything people use is whatmakes chemical engineers different fromother engineers.

Chemical engineers often find them-selves defining a problem or product,developing a process to do what isneeded, and then designing the plant tocarry out the process. After the plant isstarted, chemical engineers commonlymanage operations, oversee equipmentmaintenance, and supervise control ofproduct quality. They trouble-shoottheproblems which hinder smooth opera-tions, and they plan for future expansionsor improvements. Their training andknowledge make them well qualified tomarket the products from a plant, theprocessing equipment for plants, or eventhe complete plant itself. The variedbackground and experience of chemicalengineers make them ideally suited foradvancement into top-level managerialand executive positions.

The goal of the B.S. degree program isto produce graduates who possessbroad-based knowledge, skills and judg-ment that prepares them to succeed inthe profession of engineering or in further


studies at the graduate level includingmedical school. To achieve this goal, theobjectives described below are inte-grated throughout the program.

In the preprofessional portion of thechemical engineering program (usuallyequivalent to two years of study), thefocus is on the underlying scientific andmathematical principles of engineering,supplemented by appropriate generaleducation courses in English, socialsciences and humanities. Students whodemonstrate proficiency in this portion ofthe program are eligible for admission tothe professional school.

The curriculum in the professionalschool (typically two years) builds sys-tematically upon the scientific knowl-edge acquired in the preprofessionalcurriculum. In professional school, stu-dents have the opportunity to focus inone of three emphasis areas: (1) theregular course prepares a graduate for awide range of employment opportunities;(2) the premedical emphasis is for thosewho wish preparation for medical schoolor seek employment in medically-relatedprofessions; and (3) the environmentalemphasis is for those who wish to em-phasize environmentally-related studies.Each emphasis area is accredited underthe basic level ABET criteria for chemicalengineering programs and each pre-pares a student for success in M.S. orPh.D. study at OSU or other universities.A more complete description of exactdegree requirements for the bachelor's-level curricula is given in the publicationUndergraduate Programs and Require-ments at OSU.

Each professional school coursebuilds upon the preceding chemicalengineering courses to develop in thestudent the ability to identify and solvemeaningful engineering problems. Thecourse work is specifically sequencedand interrelated to provide design experi-ence at each level, leading to progres-sively more complex, open-ended prob-lems. The course work includes sensitiz-ing students to socially-related technicalproblems and their responsibilities asengineering professionals to behaveethically and protect occupational andpublic safety. The program culminates inthe senior-year design courses in whichthe students integrate the analysis, syn-thesis and other abilities they have devel-oped throughout the earlier portions oftheir study into a capstone experience.At this point, they will be able to designcomponents, systems and processesthat meet specific requirements, includ-ing such pertinent societal consider-ations as ethics, safety, environmentalimpact and aesthetics. The students willhave also developed and displayed theability to design and conduct experi-ments essential to specific studies and to

analyze the experimental results anddraw meaningful conclusions.

An integral part of this educationalcontinuum from basic science throughcomprehensive engineering design arelearning experiences that facilitate thestudents' abilities to function effectively inboth individual and team environments.Moreover, the program provides everygraduate with adequate learning experi-ences to develop effective written andoral communication skills. State-of-the-artcomputational tools are introduced andused as a part of their problem-solvingexperiences. Finally, the students' expe-riences in solving ever-more-challengingproblems give's them the ability to con-tinue to learn independently throughouttheir professional careers.

Upon completing the B.S. studies thequalified student is encouraged to con-ti nue in the master's program.

Civil andEnvironmentalEngineeringProfessor and Head Robert K.

Hughes, Ph.D., P.E.The exceptional diversity of profes-

sional practice in civil engineering pre-sents many career opportunitiesfor students well-founded in the physicalsciences, mathematics, geology andbiology.

The concern of civil engineers is aperson's environment-its control, alter-ation and utilization. Civil engineersengage in planning, designing and con-structing highways, waterway and rail-way systems, harbors and shipping facili-ties, systems for the treatment and distri-bution of water and for the collection andtreatment of sewage and industrialwaste, dams and hydroelectric works,airports and terminals, structures of everykind including buildings, bridges, towers,industrial plants, tunnels and subwaysystems, schemes for the control of waterand air pollution, and many other worksof general benefit to society.

The professional curriculum in civilengineering is based on the pre-engi-neering courses in mathematics, physi-cal sciences and engineering sciences.On this foundation, required coursestrain the student in the basic skillsneeded for the professional practice ofcivil engineering and provide the tools formore advanced study. Engineeringtheory and principles are developed in away that will encourage their applicationto the solution of practical problems.Elective courses give experience in thesolution of typical problems and developthe judgment and confidence of thestudent engineer.

The goals of the School are to providea curriculum that is well balancedamong the six major areas of civil engi-neering practice; to provide access andexposure to laboratory, computationaland design experiences that will en-hance performance in the practice ofcivil engineering; to enhance communi-cative skills and an understanding ofmanagement principles; to encourage


the development of social relationshipsand experience in team participation;and to ensure student understanding ofthe ethical and societal responsibilities ofprofessional practice. Program curricularequirements are outlined in the publica-ti on Undergraduate Program and Re-quirements that is considered a compan-ion document to the Catalog. The civiland environmental program is accred-ited by the Engineering AccreditationCommission of the Accreditation Boardor Engineering and Technology under

the criteria for civil and similarly namedengineering programs.

Design talents are developed throughseries of courses in which the design

component is integrated into courseinstruction. The first design experienceoccurs in the freshman year with a com-puter-aided design course. Concrete,steel, geotechnical and environmentaldesign experiences occur in junior andsenior level courses. The design compo-nent is culminated by a senior designexperience using previous design expo-sure. The design requirements are pro-vided in the publication UndergraduatePrograms and Requirements.

Engineering ethics, occupational andpublic health and safety issues; team-work; contemporary issues involvingstate, federal and local governmentissues; and professional practice areintegrated into the course curriculum.

Some degree of specialization is pro-vided through the choice of electivecourses in structures, engineering me-chanics, transportation engineering, soilmechanics and foundations, construc-tion engineering and management, envi-ronmental engineering and water re-sources. There is a designated emphasisfor those students wishing to concentratemore heavily in the environmental areaof practice. The environmental emphasisis accredited as a civil engineering pro-gram. Strong support for various parts ofthe program are given by the depart-ments of Industrial Engineering andManagement, Mechanical and Aero-Space Engineering, Agronomy, Chemis-try , Geology, and Microbiology.

Electrical andComputerEngineeringProfessor and Interim Head Bennett

L. Basore, Sc.D., P.E.

Electrical EngineeringThe electrical engineering program

provides the fundamentals for a career inmany related areas. All around is seenthe astounding impact of microelectron-ics on consumer products such as cal-culators, electronic watches, TV games,home computers and microwave ovens,but the future impact will be even moreastounding on worldwide satellite com-munications, energy conservation, auto-mation of industrial plants, oil and gasexploration, electrical power generationand distribution, to mention a few.

The curriculum is planned to provideskills in the analysis of engineering prob-lems and the design of solutions to thoseprograms. It provides experience inworking as a team member on designprojects. Emphasis is placed on thedevelopment of both written and oralcommunications skills and the conceptof professionalism including the impor-tance of life-long learning.

The School of Electrical and ComputerEngineering offers a full range of under-graduate and graduate program choices.A degree in electrical or computer engi-neering is also an excellent foundationfor graduate work in other professionalfields such as medicine and law. Manygraduates also pursue advanced pro-grams in business and managementafter earning a degree in engineering.

The undergraduate electrical andcomputer engineering program at Okla-homa State University prepares eachgraduate for a life-long professional


career. During the first two years, stu-dents complete a carefully designed pre-engineering program consisting of math-ematics, physical sciences, engineeringsciences and selected courses in thehumanities and social sciences. Duringthe final two years of the program, eachstudent concentrates his or her study onelectrical and computer engineeringsubjects and can elect from the followingareas: computer engineering, electron-ics, energy systems, communications,control systems, electromagnetics, solidstate devices, optics, and network theory/signal processing. Specific electivecourses must be selected to assure thatthe design experience is integratedthroughout the curriculum, culminating inthe two major design courses at thesenior level.

Computer EngineeringA special emphasis area in computer

engineering is offered by the School ofElectrical and Computer Engineering.This area is designed for students whohave a strong interest in computers anddesire to gain a full understanding of boththe electronic hardware and the pro-gramming software aspects of moderncomputer systems. A student in computerengineering will also gain a detailedknowledge of one or more applicationswhere computers are being used asintegral components of advanced engi-neering systems; examples are instru-mentation and test facilities, communica-tion systems, power systems and pro-cess control systems. Students in com-puter engineering will work directly withmicroprocessors, microcomputers, andminicomputers and develop specialelectronic circuits for interfacing thesecomputers to various peripheral devices.

In addition to the laboratories devotedto research, separate instructional labo-ratories give students "hands-on" experi-ence in microcomputers, minicomputers,digital logic design, electronics, electri-cal machinery, networks, instrumentationand electromagnetics. In most instances,the student is guided through laboratoryexercises which are closely related toclassroom lectures. Here the student hasthe opportunity to verify theoretical prin-ciples and design concepts presented inthe lectures. In other courses, the labora-tory formats are more open-ended, allow-ing the student to experiment freely andexercise individual discretion in discov-ering experimental results.

This program, including the computerengineering emphasis area describedabove, is accredited by the EngineeringAccreditation Commission of the Ac-creditation Board for Engineering andTechnology under the criteria for electri-cal and similarly named engineeringprograms.

Engineering offers two graduate degrees:Master of Science and Doctor of Philoso-phy. Students interested in a Master ofElectrical Engineering degree programshould contact the department head. .

The Master of Science degree is de-signed for students interested in careersin industry and government service thatemphasize advanced design, develop-ment, and research methods for hightechnology. This degree incorporatesadditional advanced course work andon-campus creative activities.

The Doctor of Philosophy degree isdesigned to prepare the student for high-level research and development posi-tions in industry and government and forthe teaching profession in engineering,and is distinguished by the emphasis onresearch and by the incorporation of adoctoral thesis.

Students may select course work andparticipate in research and designprojects in the following areas: computerengineering, energy systems, controltheory, communications, signal/speech/image processing, electromag-netics,electronics, network theory, solid-statedevices, artificial intelligence, parallelprocessing, optoelectronics and lasers.

In addition, students may elect amultidisciplinaryprogram that crossesdepartmental lines and emphasizes theapplication of electrical engineering andsystems theory to complex problemsinvolving the interaction of engineeringsystems and technology with social,economic and environmental processes.Admission Requirements. Admission tothe Graduate College, as describedunder "General Regulations" in the"Graduate College" section of the Cata-log is the first step for those studentsproceeding toward advanced degrees.Graduation with high scholastic perfor-mance from an electrical engineeringcurriculum accredited by the Accredita-tion Board for Engineering and Technol-ogy qualifies the student for admission tothe School of Electrical and ComputerEngineering as a candidate for the ad-vanced degrees offered.

Graduates from non-engineering fieldssuch as mathematics, physics and com-puter science are also admitted to theSchool of Electrical and Computer Engi-neering M.S. and Ph.D. graduate pro-grams, if an evaluation of their transcriptsindicates they are prepared to takegraduate-level course work in electricalengineering, or can be expected to do soafter a reasonable amount of remedialcourse work. This condition also appliesto graduates of unaccredited engineer-ing programs and engineering technol-ogy programs.

Degree Requirements. The Master ofScience degree is awarded to thosestudents who successfully complete anapproved plan of study under one of twopossible options. If a thesis is written, 30semester credit hours are required, in-cluding six hours credit for the thesis. Ifno thesis is written, 32 semester credithours are required, including two hourscredit for a creative activity. To be ap-proved, a plan of study will include, as aminimum, 18 hours of 5000-levelcourses in electrical and computer engi-neering. Most plans of study includeadditional 5000-level courses, depend-ing upon the background and particulareducational goals of the student, and theminimum stated above is allowed onlywhen a specific interdisciplinary plan ofstudy is approved by the faculty. Eachstudent is encouraged to includecourses in supporting disciplines suchas mathematics, computer science,statistics, business or other engineeringfields. As mentioned above, some reme-dial work in undergraduate electrical andcomputer engineering may be requiredin addition to the 30-32 hours specifiedabove.

The Doctor of Philosophy degree isgranted in recognition of high achieve-ment in scholarship in course work se-lected from the broad field of electricalengineering, and an independent investi-gation of a research problem in a chosenfield of specialization that leads to acontribution to knowledge, as presentedin a dissertation. For this degree theGraduate College requires a minimum of90 credit hours for acceptable academicwork beyond the bachelor's degree,including credit for the dissertation.

The School of Electrical and ComputerEngineering also participates in theMaster of Manufacturing Systems Engi-neering program. (See "Graduate Pro-grams" under "Industrial Engineering andManagement," and "TelecommunicationsManagement" in the "Graduate College"section.)

IndustrialEngineering andManagementProfessor and Head C. Patrick

Koelling, Ph.D.Industrial engineering and manage-

ment is a broad field concerned withdesigning, analyzing and operating awide range of systems including people,materials, money and equipment. Indus-trial engineering and management is the


only engineering discipline specificallyconcerned with the role of the humanbeing in the processes by which goodsand services are produced and as suchis often called the "people-oriented engi-neering discipline." The industrialengineer's position in an organization isusually as a management adviser incontact with every phase of the organiza-tion. Because of the breadth of theirbackgrounds, industrial engineers arespecially well qualified to rise to posi-

tions of leadership.The goal of the industrial engineering

and management program is to producegraduates who possess broad-basedknowledge, skills and judgment thatprepares them to succeed in the profes-sion of engineering management or infurther studies at the graduate level.specific educational objectives derivedfrom this goal are available from theundergraduate adviser.

The curriculum explicitly providescourse work useful in dealing not onlywith the physical elements of systems,but also with organizational, economic,environmental and human aspects. Suchproblems are found in traditional industryas well as in service organizations andgovernmental agencies, e.g., manufac-turing facilities, hospitals, airlines, rail-roads, banks and management consult-ing firms. In all of these capacities, theindustrial engineer is concerned withimproving productivity and quality, andproviding safe and efficient workingconditions.

The curriculum blends a basic groupof common engineering science courseswith specialized courses containingengineering topics in the major areas ofindustrial engineering-design of hu-man/machine systems, design of man-agement control systems and improve-ment of operations (both manufacturingand service). The course offerings stressmathematical and statistical techniquesof industrial systems analysis, quantita-tive methodologies of operations re-search, computers as a tool for problemsolving and simulation, economic con-siderations of alternatives, control ofproduct or service quality and quantity,specifications of the manufacturing pro-cess including equipment and tooling,planning, scheduling and control of workflow, and behavioral sciences in theorganization, management of humanendeavor, ethics, and environmental andsafety concerns.

Students gain valuable hands-onlaboratory experience in manufacturingprocesses, work methods, computersimulation and human factors engineer-ing. This experience, combined with theCourse work described above, providesa firm foundation for the capstone designcourse during the senior year. Specific

courses containing these engineeringtopics and the major engineering designcourse are identified in the publicationUndergraduate Programs and Require-ments.

The course work is specifically se-quenced and interrelated to providedesign experience at each level, leadingto progressively more complex, open-ended problems. The course work in-cludes sensitizing students to socially-related technical problems and theirresponsibilitiesas engineering profes-sionals to behave ethically and protectoccupational and public safety. Theprogram culminates in a senior yeardesign course in which the studentsintegrate the analysis, synthesis andother abilities they have developedthroughout the earlier portions of theirstudy into a capstone experience wherethey identify, delineate and solve engi-neering problems. Students are able todesign components, systems and pro-cesses that meet specific requirements,including such pertinent societal consid-erations as ethics, safety, environmentalimpact and aesthetics. The students alsodevelop and display the ability to designand conduct experiments essential tospecific studies and to analyze the ex-perimental results and draw meaningfulconclusions.

An integral part of this educationalcontinuum from basic science throughcomprehensive engineering design arelearning experiences that facilitate thestudents' abilities to function effectively inboth individual and diverse team envi-ronments. Moreover, the program pro-vides every graduate with considerablelearning experiences to develop effec-tive written and oral communicationskills. State-of-the-artcomputational toolsare introduced and used as a part of theirproblem-solving experiences. Finally, thestudents' experiences in solving ever-more-challenging problems gives themthe ability to continue to learn indepen-dently throughout their professionalcareers.

The program is accredited by theEngineering Accreditation Commissionof the Accreditation Board for Engineer-ing and Technology under the criteria forindustrial and similarly named engineer-ing programs.

Mechanical andAerospaceEngineeringProfessor and Head Lawrence L.

Hoberock, Ph.D., P.E.Mechanical engineering and aero-

space engineering are professionaldisciplines that involve the invention,design, and manufacture of devices,machines and systems that serve theever-changing needs of modern society.

Mechanical engineering is an ex-ceedingly diverse field that covers anexceptionallywide range of systems,devices and vehicles. Mechanical engi-neers are vitally concerned with all formsof energy production, utilization andconservation. They deal with everythingmechanical, whether it is small or large,simple or complex-from power lawnmowers to automobiles, fuel cells tonuclear power plants, gas turbine en-gines to interplanetary space vehicles,artificial limbs to life support systems,robotic manipulators to complex auto-matic packaging machines, precisioninstruments to construction machinery,household appliances to mass transitsystems, and heating and air-condition-ing systems to off-shore drilling platforms.In virtually every organization whereengineers are employed, mechanicalengineers will be found.

The B.S. degree program in mechani-cal engineering, together with the pre-medical option in mechanical engineer-ing, is accredited by the EngineeringAccreditation Commission of the Ac-creditation Board for Engineering andTechnology under the criteria for me-chanical and similarly named engineer-ing programs.

Aerospace engineering, an option inmechanical engineering is concernedwith the science and technology of flight,and the design of air, land and sea ve-hicles for transportation and exploration.This exciting field has already led peopleto the moon and continues to lead in theexpansion of frontiers deeper into spaceand into the ocean's depths. Because oftheir unique backgrounds in aerodynam-ics and lightweight structures, aerospaceengineers are becoming increasinglyinvolved in solving some of society'smost pressing and complex problems,

such as high-speed ground transporta-tion and pollution of the environment.Aerospace engineering, an option inmechanical engineering, is separatelyaccredited by the Engineering Accredita-tion Commission of the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technologyunder the criteria for aerospace andsimilarly named engineering programs.

The goals of the mechanical engi-neering B.S. degree programs, includingthe aerospace engineering and premedi-cal options, are to educate engineerswho are both well prepared to practiceengineering upon graduation and whohave sufficiently rigorous development toundertake graduate work. Because me-chanical engineering is perhaps thebroadest of all engineering disciplines,the program provides not only excellentgrounding in all engineering fundamen-tals, but also allows some flexibility inselecting controlled technical electivesto suit the student's interests. However noone area may be unduly emphasized atthe expense of another. For the aero-space engineering and premedicaloptions, prescribed course work hasbeen selected to provide students withmore focused development. Graduatesof these programs are fully competent asmechanical engineers, including theirabilities in design, but also competent intheir areas of concentration.

As a fundamental component of allB.S. programs, engineering design isstrongly emphasized in the junior andsenior years. A minimum of 16 credithours of design, integrated throughoutthe curriculum, must be taken by eachstudent. In fact, with the exception of onlya few courses, each MAE course at the3000 and 4000 levels includes somedesign content, ranging from a minimumof one-half to a maximum of four credithours of design content. Each profes-sional school course builds upon thepreceding mechanical and aerospaceengineering courses to develop in thestudent the ability to identify and solvemeaningful engineering problems. Thecourse work is specifically sequencedand interrelated to provide design experi-ence at each level, leading to progres-sively more complex, open-ended prob-lems. The course work includes sensitiz-ing students to socially-related technicalproblems and their responsibilities asengineering professionals to behaveethically and protect occupational andpublic safety. The program culminates ina senior-year design course in whichstudents integrate analysis, synthesis,and other abilities they have developedthroughout the earlier portions of theirstudy into a capstone experience. Thedesign experiences include the funda-mental elements and features of designwith realistic constraints such as


economics, safety, reliability, social andenvironmental impact, and other factors.At this point, students are able to designcomponents, systems and processesthat meet specific requirements, includ-ing such pertinent societal consider-ations as ethics, safety, environmentalimpact and aesthetics. Students developand display the ability to design andconduct experiments essential to spe-cific studies and to analyze the experi-mental results and draw meaningfulconclusions.

An integral part of this educationalcontinuum from basic science throughcomprehensive engineering design arelearning experiences that facilitate thestudents' abilities to function effectively inboth individual and team environments.Moreover, the program provides everygraduate with adequate learning experi-ences to develop effective written andoral communication skills. State-of-the-artcomputational tools are introduced andused as a part of their problem-solvingexperiences. Finally, the students' expe-riences in solving ever-more-challengingproblems gives them the ability to con-tinue to learn independently throughouttheir professional careers.

The broad background and problem-solving ability of mechanical and aero-space engineers make them suited toengage in one or more of the followingactivities: research, development, de-sign, production, operation, manage-ment, technical sales and private con-sulting. Versatilityis their trademark. Abachelor's degree in mechanical engi-neering or the aerospace engineeringption is also an excellent background

for entering other professional schoolssuch as medicine, dentistry, law or busi-ness (M.B.A.). The premedical option inmechanical engineering is available forstudents wishing to enroll in medicalschool.

In the professional school, (essentiallythe junior and senior years of the pro-gram) mechanical and aerospace engi-neering students extend their study of theengineering sciences and considerapplications of fundamental principlesand analysis tools to the solution of realtechnological problems of society. Stu-dents make extensive use of modernelectronic digital computers in manycourses in their programs. Some designcourses involve students in the solutionof authentic, current and significant engi-neering problems provided by industrialfirms, such as 3M, General Dynamics,Schlumberger, Seagate, Hilti, MercuryMarine, Purolator, Moore BusinessForms, and Mobil. Students may alsohelp smaller firms that need assistancewith the development of new products.

The student designs, with the guid-ance of an adviser, an individualized

program of study consistent with his orher interests and career plans. Somestudents terminate their studies with abachelor's degree, while others receiveone of several graduate degrees.

Graduate ProgramsThe School of Mechanical and Aero-

space Engineering offers programs lead-ing to the Master of Science degree, andthe Doctor of Philosophy degree. Thesedegrees prepare the graduate for re-search and development positions inindustry and government, or for theteaching profession in engineering. Theyare distinguished by the incorporation ofa research component.

Students may select course work andparticipate in research or design projectsin the following areas: advanced manu-facturing processes, aerodynamics,design, computational mechanics, dy-namic systems and controls, fluid me-chanics, materials processes, solidmechanics, and thermal systems. Stu-dents are encouraged to take courses inmathematics and science and in otherfields of engineering which fit into theirprograms.Admission Requirements. Admission tothe Graduate College is required of allstudents pursuing the M.S. or Ph.D. de-gree. Graduation from a mechanical oraerospace engineering curriculum ac-credited by the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology, with scho-lastic performance distinctly above aver-age, qualifies the student for admission tothe School of Mechanical and Aero-space Engineering as a candidate for theM.S. and Ph.D. degrees. Graduates fromdisciplines other than mechanical oraerospace engineering may be admittedif an evaluation of their transcripts by theSchool of Mechanical and AerospaceEngineering indicates they are preparedto take graduate-level course work inmechanical engineering, or can beexpected to do so after a reasonableamount of prerequisite work.Degree Requirements. All degree pro-grams follow an approved plan of studydesigned to satisfy the individual goals ofthe student, while conforming to thegeneral requirements of the School ofMechanical and Aerospace Engineeringand the Graduate College.

The Master of Science degree pro-gram with the thesis option requires 24semester credit hours of approvedgraduate-level course work, and a suit-able research thesis of six semestercredit hours. The non-thesis option re-quires 35 semester credit hours of whichtwo must be for an acceptable, directedresearch activity that results in a writtenand oral report to the faculty.

The Doctor of Philosophy degreerequires a minimum of 90 semestercredit hours beyond the bachelor's de-gree, including a dissertation for whichno more than 30 semester credit hoursmay be awarded.

The School of Mechanical and Aero-space Engineering also participates inthe Master of Manufacturing SystemsEngineering degree program. (See"Graduate Programs" under "IndustrialEngineering and Management.")

School ofArchitectureProfessorand Head J. Randall

Seitsinger, M.Arch., AIA

The School of Architecture, founded in1909, offers professional degree pro-grams in both architecture and architec-tural engineering. The integration ofthese programs through shared faculty,facilities and course work is a majorstrength of the School. It is one of the fewsuch integrated programs in the UnitedStates, and as such produces graduateswho are particularly prepared for theintegrated team processes used in pro-fessional practice. The School of Archi-tecture is a primary unit in the College ofEngineering, Architecture and Technol-ogy, and therefore benefits from excel-lent state-of-the-art resources whichsignificantly enhance the School's pro-fessional programs.

The School of Architecture is dedi-cated to providing a high quality andfocused professional education to stu-dents whose career goals are to enterthe practice of architecture or architec-tural engineering. Professional and lib-eral study electives provide opportunitiesfor educational breadth or depth and apossible double degree in both architec-ture and architectural engineering.

The employment demand for OSUgraduates consistently exceeds thesupply potential of the School. OklahomaState University graduates are recruitedby the leading architectural and archi-tectural engineering firms both in Okla-homa and nationally. The OklahomaState University School of Architecture isparticularly proud of having among itsalumni many of the leaders of the bestfirms in the country, an AIA Gold Medalist(the highest award given to an architect),and presidents of the American Instituteof Architects (AIA) and the National Ar-chitectural Accreditation Board (NAAB).Mission and Goals. Architecture is thedifficult and complex art and science ofdesigning and building a setting for


human life. It is unique among today'sprofessions in that its successful practicerequires a blend, in roughly equalshares, of traits normally considered lessthan compatible: human empathy, artisticcreativity, technological competence,and organizationaland economic acu-men. In contrast to other fine arts, archi-tecture is rarely self-generated; it is rathera creative response to a stated or per-ceived human need. It must, therefore,be more user-oriented than fine art aloneand more humane than pure science. Itsdesign solutions must avoid the totalsubjectivity and detachment of other artswhile striving to be functionally, techni-cally and economically objective andsound. Yet, in a seemingly insolublecontradiction, the keenest technologicaland economic functionality will fall farshort of becoming architecture unless italso strongly appeals to human spiritualand emotional values. When one thinksof the environment, one cannot help butsee or recall architectural images: pyra-mids in Egypt, Greek and Romantemples, gothic cathedrals, medievalcastles, industrial cities, modern sky-scrapers and dwellings or entire citieswhich significantly express the cultureand values of the people who live orli ved there.

The fundamental mission of theSchool of Architecture is to focus itsunique combination of accredited pro-grams in architecture and architecturalengineering to prepare and inspire stu-dents for the vital professional leadershiproles and responsibilities required toshape the physical environment and tohave a positive impact on the social,economic and cultural qualities of life inOklahoma and the entire internationalcontext.

The School of Architecture endeavorsto instill in each individual a sensitivity tohuman needs. A genuine concern forquality, integrity and high ideals, a posi-tive attitude for life-long learning, and anappreciation for one's own self-esteem.

The School's primary goal is to pro-vide excellence in professional educa-tion for students preparing to enter theprivate practice of architecture or archi-tectural engineering. This professionalfocus is to educate not just qualifiedcandidates for the degree, but graduateswho, during their careers, will be li-censed professionals and will assumepositions of leadership within the profes-sion and society.Accreditation. The School of Architec-ture offers two separately accreditedprofessional degree programs. TheBachelor of Architecture degree, B.Arch.,is accredited by the NAAB. The Bachelorof Architectural Engineering degree,B.Arch.E.,is accredited by the Accredita-tion Board for Engineering and Technol -

ogy (ABET) as an engineering program.Both programs require a minimum of fiveyears of study to complete.

ArchitectureArchitecture is the complex synthesis

of creatively solving problems involvingboth art and science through the disci-plined orchestration of image making,activity organization, technological appli-cations, legal constraints, and budgetaryparameters which together expressculture, enhance quality of life and con-tribute to the environment.

Education in architecture consists ofcampus-oriented classroom and studiocourses, as well as off-campus studies. Itis conducted in an intellectual climatewhich stimulates inquiry, introducesprinciples and values, andteaches thedisciplines necessary to work in collabo-ration with others. The goal of the pro-gram is, the education of future leaderswithin the architecture profession.

The design studio is the center of theSchool's educational program. It is thesetting where students and faculty workmost closely together, and where allspecialized study and knowledge comestogether and is synthesized in design.The record of OSU students' achieve-ments in the design studios is evidencedby the success in national and interna-tional architectural design competitions.Over the last 40 years, the School hasthe second highest number of winnersand finalists of any program in the UnitedStates in these prestigious competitions.

The program has long been known asone of the strongest professional pro-grams in the United States. OSU gradu-ates are consistently offered employmentopportunities in many of the best archi-tectural offices in Oklahoma andthroughout the United States. The pro-gram is fully accredited by the NationalArchitectural Accreditation Board.

Most states require that an individualintending to become an architect hold anaccredited degree. There are two typesof degrees that are accredited by theNational Architectural Accrediting Board:(1) the Bachelor of Architecture, whichrequires a minimum of five years of study,and (2) the Master of Architecture, whichrequires a minimum of three years ofstudy following an unrelated bachelor'sdegree or two years following a relatedpreprofessional bachelor's degree.These professional degrees are struc-tured to educate those who aspire toregistration/licensureas architects.

The four-year, preprofessional degree,where offered, is not accredited byNAAB. The preprofessional degree isuseful for those wishing a foundation in

the afield of architecture, as preparationfor either continued education in a pro -

fes$ional degree program or for employ-ment options in architecturally relatedareas.

ArchitecturalEngineering

Architectural engineering is a profes-sion that combines the art and scienceknown as architecture with a detailedbackground in fundamental and appliedengineering principles. In its broadestsense, it involves the creative applicationof science and technology to the designof structures meant for human occu-pancy. Architectural engineering differsfrom architecture in its focus upon thedesign of elements, systems and proce-dures for buildings, rather than the de-sign of buildings themselves. Architec-tural engineers practice in a wide varietyof professional engineering settings suchas consulting firms, architectural firms,industrial or commercial organizationsand governmental agencies

The goal of the architectural engineer-ing program is to produce graduates whopossess broad-based knowledge, skillsand judgment that prepares them tosucceed in the profession of architec-tural engineering or in further studies atthe graduate level.

The primary focus of the architecturalengineering program at OSU is the safeand economical design of structuralsystems used in buildings. These struc-tural systems must withstand the variousforces of nature such as gravity, windsand earthquakes, as well as the forces ofman. These systems require a workingknowledge of the mechanics of thosematerials commonly used for buildingstructures such as steel, timber andreinforced concrete.

The study of architectural engineeringis an integrated mix of liberal studies,design and technical education. Archi-tectural engineers need to be able toconceptualize aesthetic issues anddesign complex technical systems.

In the preprofessional portion of thearchitectural engineering program (ap-proximatelytwo years of study), the focusis on the underlying scientific and math-emetical principles of engineering andthe basic design principles of architec-ture supplemented by appropriate gen-eral education courses in English, socialsciences and humanities. These coursesallow students to assimilate a beginningknowledge base in architecture andengineering along with a broader liberalbased component to their education.Students who demonstrate proficiency in


this portion of the program by meeting aspecific set of admission criteria areeligible for admission to the professionalprogram in architectural engineering.

The professional program in architec-tural engineering (typically three years)builds systematically upon the scientificand architectural knowledge acquired inthe preprofessional curriculum. Studentsacquire detailed structural and architec-tural knowledge and problem-solvingabilities through a series of progressivelymore detailed and comprehensivecourses and studios.

Each architectural engineering coursebuilds upon the preceding architecturalengineering courses to develop in thestudent the ability to identify and solvemeaningful architectural engineeringproblems. The course work is specifi-cally sequenced and interrelated toprovide design experience at each level,leading to progressively more complex,open-ended problems. (See the publica-tion UndergraduatePrograms and Re-quirements.) This course work includessensitizing students to socially-relatedtechnical problems and their responsi-bilities as engineering professionals tobehave ethically and protect publicsafety. The program culminates in a fifthyear course (ARCH 5119) in which thestudents integrate analysis, synthesisand other abilities they have developedthroughout the earlier portions of theirstudy into a capstone experience.

An integral part of this educationalcontinuum from basic knowledgethrough comprehensive architecturalengineering design are learning experi-ences that facilitate the students' abilitiesto function effectively in both individualand team environments. Students areexposed to a wide variety of problemsdealing with contemporary issues in aninternational context. Moreover, theprogram provides every graduate withadequate learning experiences to de-velop effective written and oral communi-cation skills. State-of-the-artcomputa-tional and CAD tools are introduced andused as a part of the students' problem-solving experiences. Finally, the stu-dents' experiences in solving ever-more-challenging problems gives them theability to continue to learn independentlythroughout their professional careers.

UndergraduateCurriculum

The programs in architecture andarchitectural engineering are five yearslong and offer the professional degreesof Bachelor of Architecture and Bachelorof Architectural Engineering, which arerequired for professional licensure.

UndergraduateAdmission. Studentswho satisfy the University admissionrequirements are eligible to enroll for thefirst two years of the program (pre-archi-tecture). Upon completion of these twoyears, the best qualified students areselected, upon application, by theSchool for admission to the upper divi-sion. Admission is based upon academicachievement and professional potential.Admission criteria are subject to annualreview by the School and may be ob-tained directly from the School.

Transfer students are required to fur-nish transcripts and course descriptionsfor previous classroom courses, as wellas examples of previous studio work.Evaluation and enrollment by the Schoolis on a course-by-course basis for alltransferstudents.General Education. Opportunitiestosatisfy General Education requirementswith required courses in the architecturecurriculum include American UrbanHistory (HIST 4503), used to meet re-quirements in Social and BehavioralSciences. At least 12 semester hours ofbasic science and mathematics can becounted toward General Education re-quirements, and required upper-divisioncourse work in History and Theory ofArchitecture can be used for GeneralEducation credit.Electives. Electives should be selectedto comply with the appropriate under-graduate degree requirements for theprogram. (See "Changes in Degree Re-quirements" in the "Academic Regula-ti ons" section of the Catalog.) Theserequirements assure compliance withinstitutional and accreditation criteria.Foreign Study. The School of Architec-ture is committed to preparing its gradu-ates for the professional opportunitiespresented by the expanding globaleconomy. As part of this preparation, theSchool offers an eight-week SummerForeign Study Program based inVersailles, France. This program hasbeen designed to supplement the re-quired curriculum. Students study, in anorganized and disciplined fashion, majorexamples of modern and historic Europe-an architecture including urban issues.Both analytic and artistic sketching skillsare the main tools developed in thiscourse of study.

Experience has shown that the Sum-mer Foreign Program significantly in-creases a student's level of maturity,independent thinking, and cultural andsocial awareness of others. Knowing theyalues and accomplishments of othercultures not only deepens and broadensknowledge and abilities, it also makes astudent a better and more responsiblecitizen of his or her own country.

Four weeks of the eight-week programare spent in France under the directsupervision and instruction of facultyfrom OSU. The remainder of the eightweeks is spent in travel study in othercountries in western and central Europe.Housing while in Versailles is provided inFrench family homes, enriching thecultural experience of each student.Faculty and Facilities. In keeping withthe professional orientation of the School,the faculty each have extensive experi-ence as successful practicing architectsand architectural engineers, as well asoutstanding scholastic records. Facultyexperience includes the design of virtu-ally all building types and systems in themany varied climates of Europe andAsia, as well as North and SouthAmerica.

The School of Architecture is housedin the Architecture Building, the originalUniversity Gymnasium and Armory, builtin 1918. This structure was extensivelyremodeled in 1976 and contains allstudios, laboratories, galleries and of-fices of the School. Specialized facilitiesinclude the Cunningham Library, con-taining all of the University's holdings onarchitecture and a fully-equipped Com-puter-assisted Design Laboratory. Thefaculty and students are especially proudof the Architecture Building, for it servesas an example of innovative architecturaldesign and the adaptive reuse of animportant building.Student Work. Projects submitted forregular class assignments may be re-tained by the School. All projects notretained will be available to the student.Student Body. With the curriculumbased upon extensive and personalizedstudent-faculty interaction, the student-faculty ratio in studio courses is set atapproximately 15 to one. Annual studentenrollment is approximately 300 studentsof whom 22 percent are women, and 18percent are international students, thusproviding a rich and diverse educationalenvironment. A variety of student organi-zations and activities are available.

Academic AdvisingThe College's Office of Student Aca-

demic Services provides advisement forall pre-architecture students. When astudent has gained admission to theupper-division of architecture, he or shewill be assigned a faculty adviser.

Each student is personally advised inthe planning and scheduling of his or hercourse work and is counseled and ad-vised individually on matters of careerchoice, his or her activities at OSU, andon other academic matters. An aca-demic file is created for each student atthe time of initial enrollment.


Graduate' ProgramsThe School offers the opportunityfor

specialized study at the graduate level inarchitecture and architectural engineer-ing. These programs lead to the post-professional degrees, Master of Architec-ture and Master of Architectural Engi-neering.

These graduate programs are de-signed for students already possessingtheir first professional or five-year degree.Each graduate program is normally one-year long and consists of a minimum of32 credit hours.

Candidates with nonprofessional four-year undergraduate degrees may applyfor admission to the professional degreeprogram and, if admitted, complete therequirements for a Bachelor of Architec-ture degree. Application may then bemade to the School's graduate program.Graduate Admission. Admission islimited and based upon undergraduateacademic records and accomplish-ments, examples of work, practical expe-rience and recommendations from prac-ticing architects, engineers and educa-tors.

Admission depends upon being ac-cepted by the Graduate College of theUniversity and by the School's GraduateAdmissions Committee.

Division ofEngineeringTechnologyProfessor and Director James E.

Bose, Ph.D., P.E.Engineering technology education is

concerned with the practical applicationof engineering achievement with empha-sis upon the end product rather than theconceptual process. Whereas the devel-opment of new methods is the mark ofthe engineer, effective use of establishedmethods is the mark of the technologist.Often the technologistwill be expected toachieve what the engineer conceives.

CurriculaEngineering technology curricula at

OSU are four-year programs which leadto the Bachelor of Science in Engineer-ing Technology. Graduates of the pro-gram are known as "technologists" andare trained either to assist engineers or toprovide independent support for engi -

neering activities. The technologist re-ceives an intensive education in his orher technical specialty and great depthin mathematics and technical sciences.The program provides-breadth in relatedtechnical, communication and socio-humanistic studies. A "master of detail,"he or she is capable of independentaction in performance of technical activi-ties and is frequently involved as a coor-dinator, expediter or supervisor of othertechnical personnel. His or her capabilityin technical sales and other public-contact positions is enhanced by his orher background in selected liberal stud-ies.Bachelor of Science in Engineering

Technology Degree ProgramsConstruction ManagementElectronics (computer option)Fire Protection and SafetyMechanical EngineeringThe Bachelor of Science in Engineer-

ing Technology degree requires either128 or 129 credit hours.

The engineering technology graduateis qualified to select from a broad array ofengineering-related positions. Job titlesof engineering technology graduatesinclude field engineer, test engineer,associate engineer, product engineer,sales engineer, tool designer, productionengineer, engineering technologist,estimator, scheduler, and project engi-neer.

Those less intrigued with theoreticalconcepts but who have the interest and

aptitude toward applications are likelyengineering technology majors. Thesestudents particularly appreciate theengagement of technical specialtycourses beginning with the first semesterand continuing throughout the course ofstudy. The relevance of the technicalscience and related technical coursesadds further satisfaction.

The Bachelor of Science in Engineer-ing Technology program is composed ofthe following curricular subdivisions:

Mathematics and science-algebra,trigonometry, applied calculus, generalphysics, and chemistry or other science.

Technical specialty-technical sci-ence and related technical courses.

Communication-English composi-tion, and written and oral technical com-munication.

Social sciences and humanities-history, government, religion, literature,art, music.

Electives-controlled and general.Co-op Program. The College of Engi-neering, Architecture and Technologyoffers an experience-based program,Cooperative Education (Co-op). Co-opallows technology students to achieve abalanced education through the combi-nation of theoretical and practical knowl-edge during their early years of profes-sional development. The student's edu-cation is a cooperative effort between theUniversity and industry. Students alter-nate semesters on campus with worksemesters in industry during their juniorand senior years. The periods of employ-ment constitute an essential element inthe educational process. Students gainpractical knowledge which is carriedback to the classroom, giving academicprograms a sense of reality. By the timethey receive their degrees, students haveaccumulated the equivalent of a year-and-a-half of progressively challengingwork experience.

Participation in Co-op is voluntary;transfer students must successfully com-plete at least one semester at OSU priorto their first placement. Students mayobtain further information about the pro-gram from the coordinator, 101A Engi-neering North.

Transfer StudentsAn important, contemporary educa-

tional development is the "two-plus-two"bachelor's program. Those completingan associate degree in technology-oriented curricula at other institutions aregenerally admissible to the junior yearwith a minimum loss of academic time.The "two-plus-two"concept provides theattractive feature of two occupational-entry levels-technician or technologist.


Required course work in mathematicsand basic science is utilized to meet upto 18 semester hours of General Educa-tion requirements also. The Scientificinvestigation requirement is met as a partof the course work meeting professionalrequirements for basic science.

ConstructionManagementTechnologyAssociate Professor and Head

Charles A. Rich, M.S., P.E.The construction industry is the largest

industry in the world. Leadership in thisfield requires a broad knowledge oflabor, materials, equipment, capital andconstruction procedures. The interdisci-plinary approach of the constructionmanagement program offers the studentspecialized course work in all phases ofconstruction, designed to prepare him orher for responsible positions in industry.

One of the primary goals of the Depart-ment of Construction Management is toenhance the quality of the instructionalprogram through effective managementof the curriculum, teaching assignmentsand fiscal and physical resources. Thisgoal includes providing instructionalfacilities, equipment and support ser-vices for faculty and students whichmaintain an excellent learning environ-inent.

Faculty with excellent credentials,including a balance of formal education,teaching ability and appropriate industryexperience, are recruited nationwideand are provided opportunities for indi-vidual professional development andregular contact with the industry. Facultymembers are encouraged to becomeinvolved in extension and research pro-grams relating to the department's areasof strength or growth and to serve theneeds for continuing education withinthe industry, particularly in the south-western construction community.

These needs and opportunities forservice are assessed regularly throughclose cooperation with local and re-gional construction professionals andindustry associations. An active IndustryAdvisory Committee, representing abroad cross-section of the industry,meets regularly to offer support andguidance necessary to preserve uncom-promising excellence.

The modern constructor must have agreat deal of technical knowledge tokeep abreast of rapidly changing equip-ment, materials and methods of con-struction. Specialized courses in estimat-ing , surveying, structures, construction

planning and scheduling, constructionlaw and insurance, field and office man-agement and construction proceduresprovide students with the backgroundnecessary for today's construction indus-try. These specialized courses, in addi-tion to a blend of the basic sciences,business, and general studies, producea well-balanced curriculum for studentsin construction. Special attention is givento computer applications in constructionestimating, and the development ofgraphic, written and oral communicationskills is emphasized throughout the cur-riculum.

Students with an interest in buildingstructures may select courses in the"building" option of construction manage-ment which provides them with a knowl-edge of working drawings, mechanicaland electrical equipment of buildings,and other course work for a career inbuilding construction.

Students with an interest in civil engi-neering structures may select courses inthe "heavy" option of construction man-agement which provides them with aknowledge of highways, soils, founda-tions and other course work for a careerin the heavy and industrial constructionindustry.

The department attempts to identifyand recruit highly qualified students whowill benefit from the instructional pro-gram, and faculty members promoteretention and ultimate graduation ofconstruction management studentsthrough effective instruction and advise-ment. An active program of outcomeassessment among graduates and theiremployers assures that the programcontinues to provide the academic train-ing required for success. As one methodof program assessment, each student, inthe final semester, is expected to sit forthe Level I Constructor QualificationExamination given once each semester.The student is responsible for the appli-cation process, including the appropriatefees. The test fee is reimbursed to thestudent through the Office of UniversityAssessment upon completion of theexamination.

Graduates of construction manage-ment have shown the curriculum to besuccessful in their development as pro-ductive members of the constructionindustry, holding responsible positionsas project managers, estimators, materialand equipment salespersons, and con-struction managers at all levels.

The bachelor's program in construc-tion management technology is accred-ited by the Technology AccreditationCommission of the Accreditation Boardfor Engineering and Technology (TAC/ABET).

Electronics andComputer TechnologyProfessor and Head Thomas G.

Bertenshaw, Ed.D., P.E.The electronics technology curricu-

lum provides preparation for outstandingcareer opportunities not only in the elec-tronics industry itself but also in manyother areas in modern industry whichdepend upon electronics for control,communications or computation. Manyopportunities exist for graduates to workin diverse areas of electronics and com-puters.

The work of the electronics graduatemay range from assisting in the designand development of new equipment inthe laboratory, applying modern micro-processors in the field, to the operation orsupervision of production operations,technical writing, customer service andsales.

The program provides the Bachelor ofScience in Engineering Technologydegree with an electronics major. Tomeet these diverse needs the program islaboratory-orientedand provides astrong foundation of mathematics andscience, specialized course work inelectronics technology and related tech-nical areas, and courses in the area ofcommunications and the social studies.

The electronics technology-computeroption curriculum provides the prepara-tion for graduates to enter the growingfield of computer hardware and software.The demand for graduates having bothcomputer hardware and software skills isquickly developing as the importance ofautomation, robotics, and artificial intelli-gence is recognized. Graduates of thisprogram will be prepared for those op-portunities in industry requiring consider-able knowledge of both computer hard-ware and software.

The program provides the Bachelor ofScience in Engineering Technologydegree with an electronics major, andwith a computer option. To meet thediverse needs that graduates will have,the program provides a strong foundationof mathematics, science, and special-ized courses. Related courses in thehumanities and social sciences areincluded to give the graduate an appre-ciation of the world in which the graduatewill live and work.

The bachelor's program in the elec-tronics major is accredited by the Tech-nology Accreditation Commission of theAccreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (TAC/ABET).


Fire Protection andSafety TechnologyAssociate Professor and Interim

Head James D. Brown, M.S., P.E.,C.S.P.The fire protection and safety curricu-

lum provides preparation for assessingand reducing the loss potential in theindustrial setting with respect to fire,safety, industrial hygiene, and hazardousmaterial accidents. With respect to fire,reducing the loss potential might involvesetting design criteria with a specialemphasis on life safety or fire resistivity orspecifying automatic detection or extin-guishing systems. When consideringsafety, reducing accidents may requirespecial protective equipment or clothing,or the redesign of machinery or pro-cesses. Reducing losses caused byenvironmental problems may requiresampling air for contaminants, such asasbestos or toxic chemicals, or monitor-ing noise levels, and the development ofprocedures to address practical ap-proaches to compliance with state andfederal regulations. Addressing the prob-lems of handling and disposing of haz-ardous chemicals, such as spill control,is often required. Managing risk andcompliance with federal laws and regu-lations relative to occupational safetyand health and hazardous materials isan increasingly important job activity.

The fire protection and safety engi-neering technology program has existedat Oklahoma State University since 1937.The demand by business and industry forloss control specialists has resulted inthe evolution of the program into one thatnow also places emphasis upon indus-trial fire protection, safety, and occupa-tional health in addition to fire services.The program is accredited by the Tech-nology Accreditation Commission of theAccreditation Board for Engineering andTechnology (TAC/ABET) and concludeswith the Bachelor of Science in Engi-neering Technology degree in fire pro-tection and safety.

The curriculum is designed to immedi-ately introduce the student to studies infire protection and safety. Therefore,students are able to measure their inter-est in a fire protection and safety careerearly in their academic program. Thecurriculum is rigorous in the areas ofmathematics and the physical sciences.Two semesters of calculus are requiredas well as two semesters of chemistryand one semester of physics. Computerusage is an essential component of mostfire protection and safety courses. Inter-ested high school students should de-sign their high school programs to pre-pare themselves for college level math-ematics and science classes.

The graduates of the fire protectionand safety engineering technology pro-gram at Oklahoma State University areconsistentlyrecruited by the major busi-nesses and industries of the UnitedStates. Graduate placement, salary of-fers, and advancement into managerialpositions have been excellent due to theuniqueness and high technical quality ofthe OSU fire protection and safety tech-nology program.

MechanicalEngineeringTechnologyProfessor and Head James E. Bose,

Ph.D., P.E.Mechanical engineering technology

(MET) is that component of engineeringthat specializes in design and applica-tion. It includes the broad areas of me-chanical design, mechanical power andmanufacturing. Mechanical engineeringtechnology is applied in robotics, auto-motive manufacturing, computer-aideddrafting and design, computer-aidedmanufacturing, agricultural machineryand processing, mining, shipbuilding,spacecraft, electronics manufacturing,food processing, aircraft metals andplastics production-nearlythe entirespectrum of the industry. In the powerareas MET graduates are involved invapor power cycles, gas power cycles,air conditioning, fluid power and powertransmissions. Manufacturing areasinvolving MET graduates include tooldesign, cost evaluation and control, plantoperations, production planning andmanufacturing methods.

An important element in MET is theuse of laboratory experience as a teach-ing tool. The MET program has laborato-ries in fluid power, materials, fluid me-chanics and applied thermal sciences,basic instrumentation, computer-aideddesign (CAD), and manufacturing.Asenior capstone design course com-posed of student teams integrates thekowledge and skills learned during theircourse of study. These laboratories aresupported with the latest computer soft-ware that supports the design function.Where appropriate, laboratories withmodern computer data acquisition sys-tems and on-screen displays are avail-able.

In addition to the required mechanicalengineering technology courses, stu-dents are provided a solid foundation inalgebra, trigonometry and calculus,physics, chemistry, statics, dynamics,instrumentation, thermodynamics andcomputer science.

Preparation for a specific industrialfunction can be accomplished by select-ing courses that emphasize a givendesign area, such as fluid power, me-chanical design, computer-aided design(CAD) power generation, and air condi-tioning and heating. Because the pro-gram focuses on the application of engi-neering principles to the pragmatic solu-tion of problems, graduates are immedi-ately productive with minimal on-the-jobtraining, thus increasing their value toindustry. Graduates of the MET programare prepared to function in the areas ofproduct design, testing, and evaluation;product application and maintenancefield engineering; and technical salesand liaison. Industries employing METgraduates include manufacturing com-panies of all types, (aircraft, automobile,compressor and turbine, fluid powermanufacturers and others); energy com-panies (such as natural gas, electricalpower generation, and the oil and gasindustries); and service companies(transportation industry, architecture andprofessional engineering firms, andthose supporting the oil and gas indus-try).

Companies utilizing the talents of METgraduates are diversified in their prod-ucts, as well as geographical location,thus providing a variety of choices inrespect to both type of work and place ofresidence and in diverse industrial, gov-

ernmental and educational institutions.

As health care grows more compli-cated, primary care physicians will beneeded more than ever. The Collegeof Osteopathic Medicine is helping tofulfill a critical need by training physi-cians who are able to treat every memberof the family and can simplify the healthcare process by applying his or herknowledge to treat the whole person.

Most graduates of OSU-College ofsteopathic Medicine practice in the

primary care fields-family medicine,oediatrics, internal medicine and obstet-rics/gynecology.Others continue theirtraining in specialties andsubspecialties-anesthesiology,neurol-ogy, psychiatry, radiology, surgery, emer-gency medicine, dermatology, and on-cology, to name a few. Regardless of thefield they pursue, students are trained tobe excellent physicians, starting with aStrong background in general medicine.

The College was founded in 1972 inresponse to a physician shortage in thesmall towns and rural areas in the state.The College opened its doors in 1974and graduated its first class in 1977. In1988, the College was merged with Okla-homa State University and continues toprepare students to be primary carephysicians with emphasis in rural medi-cine. Nationwide, the greatest need is fordoctors to care for people in small towns.

The main campus is located on 16acres along the west bank of the Arkan-sas River with a full view of downtownTulsa. The latest addition to the four-building complex is the Center for Ad-vanced Medical Education. It housesextensive conference facilities, ex-panded classroom space and a medicalbookstore. On the south campus, a half-

mile away, is the OSU Health Care Cen-ter. First opened in 1981, this clinicalteaching facility can accommodate up to3,000 patient visits a month. It is both ateaching clinic for medical students,interns, and residents, and a health careresource for residents of the west Tulsaarea. The Health Care Center providescomprehensive health care and isstaffed by licensed physicians and otherhealth care professionals who supervisestudents in the care of patients.

Osteopathic MedicinePromoting a patient-centeredap-

proach to health care, osteopathic physi-cians are concerned with the entire pa-tient and traditionally have excelled ingeneral and family health care. The doc-tor of osteopathic medicine is a fully-trained physician who selectively utilizesall accepted scientific modalities to main-tain and restore health. They are licensedto practice all phases of medicine, andoffer their patients an added dimensionof health care through osteopathic ma-nipulation, a hands-on technique thatuses palpation and manipulative proce-dures of the musculoskeletal system todiagnose illness and treat patients.

College CurriculumDivided into Basic Sciences and Clini-

cal Sciences, the curriculum at the Col-lege emphasizes primary care. The four-year program uses a coordinated, spiral-ing systems approach in which subjectmatter is continuously re-introduced ingreater depth and complexity.


During the first year students are intro-duced to core concepts in anatomy,physiology, biochemistry and microbiol-ogy. Students begin to develop compe-tence in osteopathic clinical skills includ-ing physical examination, diagnosis andpatient interviewing and recognition ofnormal and abnormal patterns of physi-cal conditions and disease.

The second year emphasizes case-based learning, clinical problem-solvingstrategies and recognition and under-standing of common diseases and con-ditions frequently seen in primary caresettings. Small group learning and inde-pendent study are keys to students' de-velopment of the critical thinking for theclinical context. Students' clinical skillsare honed through interactive lab ses-sions and simulated clinical experi-ences. Behavioral science coursesprovide students with an appreciation ofthe importance of preventative medicine,cultural sensitivity and mental healthissues.

The final 24 months are clinicallyoriented and community based, consist -ing of clerkship experiences in hospitalsand clinics where students observepatients on a daily basis under physi-cian-faculty supervision.

The student rotates through primarycare services including surgery, obstet-rics-gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry,internal medicine, family medicine andemergency medicine. The balance of theclerkship program consists of supervisedpatient contact in small towns and ruralareas throughout Oklahoma. The studentspends four weeks at each of severallocations including a community hospi-tal, primary care clinic, family practiceclerkship, and elective locations.

Students graduate from the four-yearprogram with the Doctor of OsteopathicMedicine (D.O.) degree. Following gradu-ation, students complete a one-yearrotating internship and then enter a resi-dency program.

Graduate MedicalEducation

The College administers internship andresidency programs at Columbia TulsaRegional Medical Center, HillcrestHealth Center in Oklahoma City and

Jefferson Regional Medical Center inPine Bluff, Arkansas. In addition, theCollege administers a two-year familypractice residency program in Tulsa.

The College maintains close contactwith its graduates and can offer assis-tance in setting up a practice followingthe graduate's internship and residencytraining.

The College recently added a gradu-ate program in biomedical sciences. Thesix year program is an excellent optionfor students who wish to pursue careersin medical research or academic medi-cine.

The first two years are the basic sci-ence years of the program. The middletwo years are graduate study, researchand dissertation of the Ph.D. program.The final two years are the clinical sci-ences years of the D.O. program. At theend of six years, the student is expectedto have completed the requirements forthe D.O. degree and the Ph.D. program.

Selection FactorsThe College considers applications for

admission from all qualified candidateswithout regard to age, gender, creed,race, disability or national origin. Prefer-ence is given to Oklahoma residents.Those who have experienced unequaleducational opportunities for social,cultural or racial reasons are particularlyurged to apply. Applicantsmust be U.S.citizens or have obtained permanentresident status to be considered.

AccreditationThe College is accredited by the Bu-

reau of Professional Education of theAmerican Osteopathic Association, therecognized accrediting agency for insti-tutions that educate osteopathic physi-cians. The Oklahoma State Regents forHigher Education are empowered by theOklahoma Constitution to prescribestandards for higher education appli-cable to each institution in the OklahomaState System of Higher Education.

Financial AidA financial aid officer works to ensure

that students are not prevented fromattending the College because of theirfinancial situations. The primary purposeof the College's aid program is to providefinancial assistance to students whowould otherwise be unable to affordtuition. A computer search program al-lows students to systematicallyfind avail-able loans, grants and scholarships forwhich they may be eligible.

Tuition at the College of OsteopathicMedicine (for the 1997-98 school year)

totals $8684 per year for Oklahoma resi-dents and $21,460 per year for out-of-state residents.

Although the principal responsibilityforfinancing an education remains with thestudent and his or her family, the Collegewill work to offer campus-based aid tosupplement that contribution.

Because the number of applicants andtheir total requests each year exceed theresources available, a selection processis necessary to see that the most deserv-ing and best qualified students have firstclaim on available resources. Financialaid options include loans, scholarships,and grants, as well as work-study pro-grams and return service agreements.

A Family Financial Statement andother required applications are availablefrom the College.

Honor and ServiceOrganizations

The College emphasizes communityservice, and many students volunteertheir time in giving school and athleticphysicals, visiting nursing homes, work-ing with school children, and working atCollege-sponsored health fairs or theannual Osteopathic Run.

Research at OklahomaState University

Research, a critical dimension of themission of the University, is vital to thegrowth, health and progress of the state,the region and the nation.

Over the last several years, nationalattention has turned to economic devel-opment. This renewed emphasis oneconomic development and high tech-nology has been spurred by the ad-vances made by the Asian and Europeaneconomic communities.

OSU is deeply involved in meeting thischallenge. In recent years, significantstrides have been taken in developingprograms at the cutting edge of technol-ogy and basic research. The progressmade by the establishmentof the Noble

Research Center for Agriculture andRenewable Natural Resources, the Foodand Agricultural Products Research andTechnology Center, the Center for LaserResearch, the robotics and automatedmanufacturing laboratories, and thebiotechnology programs underscore theUniversity's commitment to find solutionsto pressing problems.

The Environmental'lnstitutewas established at OSU to stimulate, coordinateand promote interdisciplinary researchand education related to the naturalenvironment. The Institute administersthe activities of the University Center forEnergy Research, the University Centerfor Water Research, the Spatial andEnvironmental Information Clearing-house, and the environmental sciencesgraduate program. More informationabout the Institute and its activities isavailable on the home page on the WorldWide Web (http://www.seic.okstate.edu/envinst/).

The University Center for EnergyResearch (UCER) encourages researchand education in the fields of energydevelopment, production, transmission,use, conservation and pollution. Theseareas are supported by a campus re-search grant program, fellowships, coor-dination of multidisciplinary projects, and '

transfer of information regarding re-search and educational opportunitiesand results via publications, presenta-tions and seminars.

The University Center for Water Re-search (UCWR) encourages researchand education on national, state andlocal water issues. Support is providedthrough two research grant programs,fellowships, coordination of multidiscip-linary projects, and transfer of informationregarding research and educationalopportunities via publication of newslet-ters, reports and special publications,and sponsorship of seminars.

The Spatial and Environmental Infor-mation Clearinghouse (SEIC) acts as aninformation link serving OSU researchersand the citizens of Oklahoma. UsingWorld Wide Web and WAIS interfaces,SEIC provides a user-friendly method oflocating and retrieving local (Oklahoma)and world-wide spatial and environmen-tal data sets. Accessible on the WorldWide Web (http://www.seic.okstate.edu/),the SEIC home page allows the useraccess to information and data on theEnvironmental Institute and SEIC, Okla- ,homa and the nation. SEIC also providessearch and retrieval services for re-searchers on the OSU campus andthroughout the state.

The Center for Laser and PhotonicsResearch (CLPR) conducts cutting-edgeresearch in critical new laser andphotonics technologies. Its national and

150 Graduate College

international reputation is based on itsleadership in lasers in basic science,industry, medicine, photonics and otherhigh-tech arenas. The Center provides afocal point of expertisefor the support ofhigh-technology industries, researchlaboratories and medical institutions inOklahoma and around the country. Fac-ulty are involved in a broad spectrum ofresearch activities including blue-lightemitting semi-conducting lasers, devel-opment of an optoelectronicTHz beamsystem, construction of a group-velocitymatched ultrashort pulse nonlinear fre-quency conversion schemes, develop-ment of the first self-starting and self-mode-locking titanium-sapphire laser,research and development in laser-induced holographic gratings in rare-earth doped glasses and dynamic lightscattering studies of colloidal suspen-sions. The efforts of the Center promotestate-of-the-art education for tomorrow'sscientists, engineers and technicians,provide important new research inemerging interdisciplinary areas andsignificantly increase state and nationalhigh technology bases. New directionsin the Center for Laser and PhotonicsResearch involve a statewide,multidisciplinaryclean room user facilityfor advanced technology materials anddevice processing and fabrication, abiophotonics initiative to link lasers andphotonics to medical research and thehealth community, and the developmentof a new photonics advanced degreeprogram, designed to attract high-qualitystudents to OSU physics, chemistry andelectrical engineering departments andbetter prepare them for the job marketthrough interdisciplinaryacademic andresearch programs.

The Telecommunications Center hasestablished the University as a worldleader in telecommunications technol-ogy and has enhanced OSU's ability todisseminate research results.

Major research affiliations exist withthe National Center for GroundwaterResearch, Oak Ridge Associated Univer-sities and National Laboratories, and theOklahoma Medical Research Founda-tion. Research facilities exist within eachof the academic colleges. Well-equippedlaboratories, teaching and diagnosticfacilities, and various resource centersprovide an excellent environment forcreative scholarly research.University Research Council.

Environmental ScienceProgram Coordinator Edward T.

Knobbe, Ph.D.

The environmental science programat Oklahoma State University empha -

sizes that an understanding of, and solu-tion to, many environmental problemsinvolves the application of skills andknowledge of more than one of the tradi-tional disciplines. Graduate Facultymembers from the agricultural, biologi-cal, physical, or social sciences, educa-tion and engineering join for the purposeof offering graduate programs at themaster's and doctor's levels.

The University has had nine decadesof experience and development in theapplication of scientific knowledge tosociety's problems. Important resourcesfor graduate students are campus re-search and learning institutes and labo-ratories, cooperative programs withpublic and private agencies, and off-campus research and teaching facilities.Many of these are staffed by personneldrawn from more than one discipline,and many serve to address problemswhich are multidisciplinaryor interdisci-plinary in scope and solution. The envi-ronmental science degree programs atthe University are designed to utilizethese resources and serve studentswhose interests transcend the traditionaldemarcations of knowledge and whosegoals include the broad understandingsand skills obtained by crossing disciplin-ary lines in the classroom and laboratory.

Graduates from the environmentalscience program are expected to haveskills and knowledge that are applicableto a wide range of research, manage-ment, and planning vocations. Govern-ment, industry, and private consultingfirms offer employment opportunitiesforenvironmental science graduates.Programs of Study. The breadth ofofferings at Oklahoma State Universityaffords flexibility to the student interestedin specific aspects of the environment.Astudent can design a unique degree planto target a particular focus area thatmeets his or her professional goals. Thestudent's graduate committee assists inthis process to help ensure focus,breadth, and quality of the degree plan.Areas of concentration span a variety of

areas such as political science, geogra-phy, geology, civil and environmentalengineering, recreation, forestry, toxicol-ogy, biology, chemistry, agronomy, andagriculture. The flexibility of this programallows the student to focus on an envi-ronmental topic not normally addressedby a single discipline.The Master of Science Degree. Toobtain the M.S. degree in environmentalscience, a student must complete a 12-hour core curriculum consisting of anenvironmental problem analysis class(ENVIR 5100), an advanced environmen-tal studies course (ENVIR 5300), and onecourse each in social science andphysical science. A minimum of 18 addi-tional credit hours are selected by thestudent and his or her committee andadviser. A thesis completes this 36-hourdegree program. Specific requirementsfor the master's degree can be obtainedfrom the program coordinator.The Doctor of Philosophy Degree. Toobtain the Ph.D. degree in environmentalscience, a student must propose andundertake a minimum of a 60-hour planof study. The plan of study must include aminimum of 36 credit hours of coursework consisting of six hours of a skillcomponent, a doctoral seminar (threecredit hours), and 27 credit hours that areselected by the student and his or hercommittee that reflect the biological,social and physical aspects of the con-centration area. In addition, this coursework will include ENVIR 5100 and ENVIR5300 as designated in the M.S. degreerequirements. Research and coursesshould reflect the student's professionalgoals. A dissertation is required andconsists of a minimum of 15 credit hours.Specific requirements for the doctoraldegree can be obtained from the pro-gram coordinator.Admission. To participate in the environ-mental science program, a student mustfirst make application to the GraduateCollege. Application materials specific tothe environmental science programinclude a statement of academic, re-search and professional goals, threeletters of recommendation, completetranscripts, and a Graduate Record Exam( GRE) report. A TOEFL score of at least575 is required of all international stu-dents.

All applications to environmentalscience graduate programs should besubmitted at least 60 days before theopening of the semester for which enroll-ment is first intended. International stu-dents should supply all application mate-rials by March 1 for fall enrollment, andJuly 1 for spring enrollment. The Gradu-ate College will provide the necessaryforms.Financial Assistance. Fee waiver schol-arships are available through the Gradu-


ate College for environmental sciencestudents. Such scholarships are avail-able for those who can qualify as Okla-homa residents. Priority is given to minor-ity students, and those who can demon-strate financial need. To be considered,a FAFSA must be completed.

Graduate research assistantships andother funding opportunities are oftenavailable through faculty members par-ticipating in the environmental scienceprogram or through one of the severalresearch institutions or centers on cam-pus. The initial application should specifyan interest in an assistantship.

TelecommunicationsManagementProgram Director Rick L. Wilson,

Ph.D.

In response to industry's need forskilled and knowledgeable telecommuni-cations management graduates, Okla-homa State University offers a Master ofScience degree in telecommunicationsmanagement. This program is offered notonly through traditional means to on-campus students but also via distancelearning technologies to students atremote locations.

The telecommunications manage-ment program draws on the combinedexpertise of three OSU colleges-theCollege of Arts and Sciences, the Col-lege of Business Administration, and theCollege of Engineering, Architecture andTechnology. As a result the telecommu-nications management student will havea traditional home department to achievea depth of knowledge in one discipline,while developing broad knowledge inbusiness, technical and communicationdisciplines.

This program prepares graduates formanaging the telecommunications tech-nologies as well as managing in a com-petitive environment with telecommuni-cations systems. The graduates of thisprogram are likely to be employable byproviders or users of telecommunica-tions technologies.Telecommunications ManagementCurriculum. The program curriculumconsists of a minimum of 33 credit hours,including seven core courses, one labo-ratory, one practicum, and three elec-tives. Students may choose either a part-time or full-time sequence. Full-timestudents can complete the program inone and one-half years while part-timestudents may be able to complete it intwo years.

Students may choose electives fromone of two tracks. Track I is the technicaltrack consisting of computer science,electrical engineering, or managementscience and information systemscourses. Track II is the management/mass communications track consistingof management, decision analysis, ormass communications courses.Admission Requirements. Qualifiedgraduates of colleges and universities ofrecognized standards are eligible toseek admission to the OSU GraduateCollege. Applicants must submit thecompleted application form to the Gradu-ate College with official transcripts of allacademic work and degrees received.

In addition to the OSU GraduateCollege's standard requirements, thetelecommunications management pro-

158 Graduate Colleg e

gram admissions committee will con-sider students' letters of recommenda-tion, GMAT or GRE scores, previousacademic performance, and telecommu-nications experience.

GeneralRegulations

Full authority on all academic deci-sions within the Graduate College restswith the dean of the Graduate College.The Graduate College policies and pro-cedures described in the Catalog are forinformational purposes. They are subjectto regular review and may be revised atany time by the dean of the GraduateCollege in consultation with the Gradu-ate Faculty Council.

ResponsibilitiesAll graduate students are expected to

read and to comply with the written regu-lations. The regulations presented in theCatalog may be supplementedby writtendepartmental or program requirementsavailable at departmental offices. Admis-sion to a specific graduate programobligates the student to adhere to thepolicies of that program.

General regulations in the followingsections relate to requirements for ad-mission, enrollment, and academicstanding. Subsequent sections outlinerequirements for the following degrees:master's, Doctor of Philosophy, Doctor ofEducation, and Specialist in Education.Particular attention should be given totiming and substantive requirements formatriculation, especially admission, theplan of study, residence, language profi-ciency, research and thesis or report,and graduation. The regulations areprescribed by the Graduate Faculty withthe intent of assuring high-quality gradu-ate programs and effective interaction ofGraduate Faculty members and graduatestudents.

A request for waiver of any regulationmust be made in writing to the dean ofthe Graduate College for presentation tothe Graduate Faculty Council for action.Such a request must be approved by themajor adviser. The student and the majoradviser should present sufficient informa-tion to allow the Graduate Faculty Coun-cil to evaluate reasons for requesting awaiver and to make a decision concern-ing departure from normal GraduateCollege regulations.

Admission to theGraduate College

Qualified graduates of colleges anduniversities of recognized standing areeligible to seek admission to the Gradu-ate College. Applicants must submit thecompleted application form to the Gradu-ate College, with official transcripts of allacademic work and degrees received.1.The student should request all institu-

tions previously attended to send twocopies of the official transcript to theGraduate College, Oklahoma StateUniversity.

2.To be official, the transcript must showthe complete scholastic record, bearthe official seal of the institution, andbe signed by the issuing officer.To assure adequate time, application

forms and transcripts should be receivedby the Graduate College at least 30 daysprior to expected enrollment. The appli-cation fee must accompany the Applica-tion for Admission. Transcripts and otherdocuments become the property of Okla-homa State University.

Standardized Test. ScoresMany departments require standard-

ized test scores, such as the GraduateRecord Examination. Applicants mustcontact the appropriate department headfor information regarding departmentalrequirementsfor these tests. (Refer to thetable "Graduate Admission Require-ments.")

International StudentAdmission

International applicants are expectedto submit applications, financial affida-vits, transcripts, and results of the Test ofEnglish as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)examination by March 1 for fall enroll-ment and by July 1 for spring enrollment.TOEFL. As a condition of admission toregular graduate study at OSU, all per-sons for whom English is a second lan-guage are required to present a score of550 or above on the TOEFL regardless ofthe number of semesters or terms com-pleted in other institutions of higher edu-cation, including OSU, or prior enroll-ment in English language programs.Some departments require a scoreabove 550. Students should contact thedepartment for specific TOEFL require-ments. Persons who present a TOEFLscore of 500 or above and who demon-strate unusual academic promise maybe admitted to graduate study on proba-tionary status, but the number of suchpersons will not exceed two percent ofthe regularly enrolled graduate studentpopulation of the previous fall semester.

Submission of the TOEFL score withthe application is never waived.English ProficiencyTest for Interna-tional Students. Before internationalstudents who have no prior course workfrom a U.S. university can complete theirfirst enrollment at Oklahoma State Uni-versity, they are required to take the Testof English Language Proficiency (TELP)administered by the University Testingand Evaluation Service. This test, sched-uled on campus before each semesterand summer session, is required in addi-tion to the TOEFL. International studentsare normally required to enroll in a sec-tion of English 0003 to enhance theirEnglish skills during their first semester ofgraduate study at OSU. A waiver of thiscourse requirement can be granted tostudents who score sufficiently high onthe TELP or who make both a 600 on theTOEFL and a 5.0 on the Test of WrittenEnglish (TWE).Spoken English Prof iciencyfor Em-ployment. OSU policy requires all per-sons for whom English is a second lan-guage to demonstrate an acceptablelevel of spoken English before beingemployed in an instructionally relatedcapacity. Employment requires demon-strated proficiencyon the Test of SpokenEnglish (TSE) as determined by the Uni-versity. Other spoken English examina-tions are not acceptable as substitutesfor the TSE. This test may be taken oncampus or at any of the many testingsites provided by the Educational TestingService. This test score is used as acondition of employment, not a conditionfor admission to the Graduate College.InternationalTeaching Assistant Pro-gram. Any international teaching assis-tant who has not previously taught in theclassroom is required to participate in theinternational teaching assistant orienta-tion and evaluation workshop offered atthe beginning of the fall and spring se-mesters. Students must receive an evalu-ation of "pass" prior to teaching in theclassroom. For further information, con-tact the Office of the Dean of the Gradu-ate College, 202 Whitehurst.

Types of AdmissionOklahoma State University uses the

4.00 scale to calculate grade-point aver-ages; that is, an "A" yields four points percredit hour, a "B" yields three points, a "C"yields two points, a "D" yields one point,and an "F" yields zero points. If anapplicant's prior college or universityuses a different scale, the grade-pointaverage must be converted to the 4.00scale to determine whether the applicantmeets Oklahoma State University grade-point admission requirements for one ofthe types of admission. Therefore, allreferences to grade-point averages are


based on a 4.00 scale. References tocredit hours are to semester credit hours.

When the applicant's file is complete,the faculty in the departmentor programof the student's area of interest is askedto review the material and recommendan admission status to the dean of theGraduate College. The final decision foradmission to the Graduate College isdetermined by the dean on the basis ofthe department's recommendations, prioracademic performance of the applicant,and availability of space, facilities, andfaculty advisers in the program. Thedecision is conveyed to the applicant bymeans of a letter. Admission to theGraduate College means only that thestudent will be permitted to enroll incourses through the Graduate College. Itdoes not necessarily imply that the stu-dent has been or will be admitted to aprogram leading to an advanced degreeor that the student will be able to obtain agraduate degree. Opportunities for re-ceiving graduate credit and graduatedegrees are dependent on the admissionstatus granted to the student.Unqualified Admission. Students plan-ning to work toward a graduate degree ina recognized graduate program may beadmitted without qualification providedthey meet all Graduate College anddepartmental requirements.1.Admission to full graduate status in a

degree program is contingent on thepresentation of an undergraduatedegree from an accredited college oruniversity, an acceptable academicrecord, and the recommendation of themajor department and the dean of theGraduate College.

2. If a student fails to provide proof of thereceipt of an undergraduate degree orfails to remain in good standing aca-demically, academic participation maybe terminated or the status may bechanged to probationary or unclassi-fied.

Special Student Status. An applicantmay be admitted to the Graduate Collegeas a special student if he or she does nothave immediate plans to become a de-gree candidate but wants to take gradu-ate courses, prerequisites or othercourses. International students with anF-1 visa may not enroll as special stu-dents.1.A special student must meet all of the

academic requirements described forunqualified admission except that heor she need not be admitted or rec-ommended for admission by adepartmentor program.

2. The student is responsible for filing anew application for admission to theGraduate College should he or shewish to become a degree candidate.The application will be evaluated by

Graduate Admission RequirementsRequirements are subject to departmental revision. 1 = Test is required, 2 = Test is recommended, 3 = GRE orMiller may be interchanged, with departmental consent, 4 = GRE or GMAT may be interchanged.

faculty of the department or programand the dean of the Graduate Collegeto ascertain admissibilityto the degreeprogram.

3.As such work is not guided by a planof study or approved by an adviser,no more than nine semester credithours of course work taken while aspecial student may be used on aplan of study to meet requirements fora degree.

4. Special students are subject to thesame academic regulations as thosestudents admitted into degree pro-grams.

Probation or Provisional Status. Appli-cants who are graduates of accreditedcolleges and universities and who haveattained less than an acceptable grade-point average in all undergraduateworkmay be admitted provisionally or onprobation on recommendation of themajor department at Oklahoma StateUniversity and concurrence by the deanof the Graduate College. Alternatively, astudent who has been in full graduatestanding or special student status maybe placed on probation or continuedprovisionally if academic performance incourses taken in graduate status at Okla-homa State University falls below a "B"average. Students with acceptable aca-demic records but without the back-ground necessary for a particular degreeprogram may also be admitted provision-ally. Students admitted provisionally or ona probationary basis may be granted fullgraduate standing after performing at anacceptable academic level. Failure tomeet required academic levels while in aprobationary status will result in dismissalfrom the Graduate College.

Transfer of GraduateCredits

Transfer of graduate credits to theGraduate College is possible only whenthe student was formally admitted to thegraduate college at another accreditedinstitution and the course(s) is certifiedas graduate credit by that institution.

The work must be recommended bythe adviser as a part of an approved planof study. The acceptance of transferredwork requires the recommendation of thestudent's advisory committee and ap-proval by the dean of the Graduate Col-lege at the time a program of study isplanned. A maximum of nine credit hourswith a grade of "B" or better in eachcourse can be accepted as transfercredits toward a master's degree. Doc-toral students must complete at least 30hours of their program at OSU. However,no more than nine hours may be trans-ferred from institutions that do not grantdoctoral degrees.


Departmental or ProgramRequirements

The General Regulations of theGraduate College are minimum require-ments that must be met by all graduatestudents at OSU. Students are also sub-ject to any additional requirements thatare determined by their program of study.Students should always make sure toreceive copies of specific program re-quirements by contacting the programoffice.

Readmission to theGraduate College

A prospective student must enroll forcourses at OSU within a year after his orher admission date to retain active status.A graduate or prospective student whodoes not enroll within one year mustreapply for admission. A student whointerrupts enrollment for one year mustre-apply for admission, or obtain ap-proval from the department to continueadmission, and will then be subject to theregulations in effect at the time of read-mission.

AuditA student who does not wish to re-

ceive credit in a course may, with theapprovals of the student's adviser andthe instructor of the course concerned,attend the class strictly as a visitor. Astudent who applies to audit a coursepromises that he or she will not use theaudit to avoid the rule against excessivehours, and that he or she will not petitionor ask in any way for the privilege oftaking an examination to obtain creditafter he or she has audited the course.(Laboratory courses, private music les-sons and art courses are not open foraudit.)

If a student is already enrolled forcredit in a course, but wishes to changeto auditing that course, the student mustofficiallydrop the course (or, if appropri-ate, withdraw), at the time the studentchanges to audit.

A student who has established apermanent record at OSU may have theaudited course recorded on his or hertranscript with "AU" appearing in place ofthe grade. Not later than one week afterthe close of that semester, the studentmust present to the Office of the Registrarthe instructor's copy of the audit form witha signed statement from the instructor, onthe reverse side, that it is appropriate forthe course to be recorded on thestudent's transcript. Any individual 65years or older may audit a class at nocharge.

EnrollmentStudents with a bachelor's degree are

expected to register in the GraduateCollege unless they want to obtain an-other bachelor's degree. If they registeras an undergraduate, the courses taken ,cannot be given graduate credit at a laterdate.

Students in the Graduate College mayenroll in a course which does not carrygraduate credit or audit courses if suchcourses are recommended by an adviserand approved by the dean of the Gradu-ate College.

An advance fee payment is requiredof all new and readmitted students.

Students will be permitted to enroll(late fee will be charged) or to add acourse through the first week of a regularsemester or third day of a summer ses-sion. For short courses, students will notbe permitted to enroll after the first day ofthe course.

Enrollment Procedure1. Enrollment forms (Trial Schedules) are

available in the Graduate College.2.Advanced degree candidates have

their Trial Schedule forms approvedand signed by their departmentaladvisers and take them to the Gradu-ate College prior to enrolling. Special

students have their Trial Scheduleforms approved in the Graduate Col-lege prior to enrolling.

3.After having the Trial Schedule formapproved in the Graduate College,graduate students complete the en-rollment process in the SectioningRoom located on the fourth floor of theStudent Union.

Phone-in EnrollmentGraduate students may enroll by

telephone if they have been acceptedinto the Graduate College. Students musthave no academic or financial holds ontheir enrollment and must have the re-quired advance fee payment on file inthe Office of the Bursar. Students mayuse the local number (405) 744-6368 orthe toll-free number 1-800-227-GRAD.

Minimum and MaximumHours of Enrollment

Any graduate student using the facili-ties and faculty resources of the Univer-sity must be enrolled. Every graduatestudent is expected to satisfactorily com-plete no fewer than six semester credithours during the academic year (fall,spring and summer) until the degree isawarded. Students who are involved in

research throughout the year are ex-pected to enroll each semester.

The total registration shall not exceed18 credit hours for a semester or ninecredit hours for a summer session. Re-gardless of the number of hours taken, astudent may not count more than 16credit hours taken in the fall or springsemester nor more than nine semestercredit hours earned in a summer sessiontoward a degree. For short-course ses-sions less than eight weeks in length,enrollment shall not exceed one credithour for each week.Faculty Members. No member of thefaculty, with the rank of associate profes-sor or above or equivalent rank at thetime of completing the requirements, maybe granted a degree from this institution.This regulation applies to faculty mem-bers in the schools of engineering hold-ing the rank of assistant professor orabove.Enrollment Regulations for GraduateAssistantsand Fellows. Graduatestudents employed by the University part-time may register only for the amount ofcredit recommended by the head of themajor department and approved by thedean of the Graduate College. In gen-eral, students employed 20 hours perweek may not register for more than 10semester credit hours of course work fora semester and five hours during a sum-mer session. Other employment willpermit registration for an appropriatenumber of hours. Graduate studentswhose employment is such that resultswill be used for a thesis, however, mayregister for additional thesis credit asrecommended by the research adviserand approved by the dean of the Gradu-ate College.

Any graduate student holding anassistantship or fellowship must enroll inat least six resident semester credit hoursduring the fall and spring semesters andat least three resident semester credithours for each summer session.

If a graduate assistant enrolls in morecredit hours than allowed for percentageof time employed, a petition for excessivehours, available in the Graduate College,must be completed and returned to theGraduate College for approval.Employment-EnrollmentIf Employed: Petition to take:

Fall/Spring Summer100% or more than more thanfull time 6 hours 3 hours75% or more than more than3/4 time 7 hours 3 hours60% more than more than

Regular SemesterFull-time Half-time9 or more hrs. 4-8 hrs.

Summer SessionFull-time Half-time4 or more hrs. 2-3 hrs.

The Office of the Registrar considersemployment as a teaching or researchassistant when determining enrollmentstatus. A student holding a 0.50 FTEgraduate assistant appointment, andenrolled in a minimum of six hours duringthe fall or spring semester, or three hoursduring the summer semester, will becertified as a full-time graduate student.Enrollment and Financial Assistance.For the purpose of receiving monetaryassistance through the Office of StudentFinancial Aid, the amount of the award isrelated only to the total number of credithours in which enrolled. Certifiable en-rollment status, based upon a combina-tion of enrollment and employment, onlyassists with the deferral of loan repay-ments, never qualification for aid, whichis based solely on enrollment.

Enrollment During theResearch Phase

Because enrollment reflects the in-

volvement of University faculty members,the graduate student must maintain con-tinuous enrollment in thesis and/or prob-lems courses for credit during the entireresearch phase of the program. Suchenrollment is not limited by the maximumnumber of credit hours of thesis whichmay apply toward a degree.

In particular, students must be en-rolled in at least two hours during thesemester in which they take their finalexamination or meet other requirements.They must also be enrolled in at least twohours during the semester in which theygraduate.

AcademicRegulationsRefer also to the sections on "AddingCourses,""Dropping Courses," and "With-drawing from the University."

Graduate-credit CoursesCourses numbered 5000 and above

are primarily for graduate students, and

only graduate students and seniors whohave obtained prior approval may enroll.The majority of courses on the master'sand doctoral plans of study will be 5000level and above.

Courses numbered 3000 and 4000that are identified by an asterisk in the"Course Listings" of the Catalog can betaken by graduate students. Graduatestudents enrolled in these courses willbe considered as taking the courses forgraduate credit and expected to fulfill allacademic requirements as proposed bythe professor.

Courses numbered 3000 and 4000that are identified by an asterisk may beused to meet requirements for a graduatedegree on the plan of study if approvedby the student's advisory committee andthe dean of the Graduate College.Courses that are not identified by anasterisk may not be used to fulfill require-ments for a graduate degree.

Academic StandingMinimum Grade Requirements. Agrade-point average of "B" (3.00) is re-quired to (1) maintain good standing as agraduate student and (2) meet require-ments for a degree. In determiningwhether a student has met minimumrequirementsfor a degree, grades forcourses on the plan of study are aver-aged separately from other courses noton the plan of study. In order to continueenrollment in the Graduate College, astudent is expected to maintain a cumu-lative graduate GPA of at least 3.00. Inorder to receive a degree, a student musthave a minimum 3.00 GPA in the coursework listed on the plan of study. Thiscourse work does not include the re-search hours (those used to fulfill thethesis, report or creative componentrequirements) on the plan of study. Thestudent must also have at least a 3.00GPA in the hours designated as researchhours on the plan of study. The grade-point averages for research hours andcourse work hours are figured sepa-rately.

After a plan of study has been ap-proved, a course with a grade below a"B" cannot be replaced on the plan with-out approval of the dean of the GraduateCollege.

A course with a grade below "C" can-not be used as part of the minimum num-ber of semester credit hours required forthe degree.

Some departments have more strin-gent requirements. The major depart-ment should be consulted concerningminimum grade requirements.Academic Warning and Strict Aca-demic Probation. Grades below "B" areconsidered below the acceptable stan -

dard for graduate students. Any studentwho receives such a grade will be sent aletter of warning from the Graduate Col-lege. If a student's overall GPA dropsbelow a 3.00, the student is subject tobeing placed on strict academic proba-tion. A student on strict academic proba-tion is required to earn a minimum gradeof "B" in each course during the nextsemester of full-time enrollment or twosemesters of part-time enrollment. Fail-ure to do so may result in suspensionfrom the University.

Departments are notified when stu-dents in their programs have been givenacademic warnings, been placed onstrict academic probation, or been sus-pended. The department has the optionto request that the student be granted , aone semester reprieve from an academicsuspension. However, further requestsfor continuance of students who haveviolated conditions of their probations arenot usually granted.Grades for Thesis (5000) and Disserta-tion (6000). The grade of "X," indicatingresearch progress, may be assigned tothesis (5000) and dissertation (6000)courses until the research is finished.Advisers also have the option of assign-ing a letter grade each semester. Byassigning the grade of "X," the adviseracknowledges that the student has madeprogress on thesis or dissertation re-search. Upon completion of the thesis ordissertation,the adviser submits aChange of Grade form to have the finalgrade enteredfor the thesis or disserta-tion.

The "X" grade can also be assigned ina course identified as the creative com-ponent portion of a master's degree.Each department in which a creativecomponent is an option has identifiedone class in which "X" may be assigned ifmore than one semester is required tocomplete the creative component. Uponcompletion of the creative component,the adviser submits a Change of Gradeform to have the final grade entered.Pass-No Pass Grading System. The "P"or "NP" grade refers only to the final grade `in the course as recorded by the Office ofthe Registrar. Homework will be as-signed and evaluated, and tests andexaminationswill be given. Studentstaking the course on a "P" or "NP" basisare expected to satisfy these courserequirements. "P" indicates a gradeequivalent to an "A," "B," or "C" while "NP"indicatesa grade equivalent to "D" or "F."

Graduate students may take a courseutilizing the Pass-No Pass grading sys-tem with the consent of their major advis-ers and the dean of the Graduate Col-lege, but courses taken under this sys-tem cannot be used on a plan of study tomeet graduate degree requirements


unless the following requirements aremet.

A graduate student wishing to use acourse taken on a Pass-No Pass basison his or her plan of study to meet de-gree requirementsmustsubmit a letter,along with the Trial Schedule form at thetime of enrollment, to the major adviser.The major adviser will considerthe re-quest and if approved, the letter and TrialSchedule form will be submitted to thedean of the Graduate College for ap-proval. A student who chooses the Pass-No Pass grading system may change tothe usual grading system with the con-sent of his or her major adviser and thedean of the Graduate College any timeprior to the last date on which a coursemay be added. Once the deadline haspassed, a student will not be permitted tochange his or her choice of gradingsystem.Grade Appeals. A student may appeal agrade given by an instructor in a case in ''which he or she believes the gradeawarded is inconsistent with announced'grading policy. The student should con-sult the "Student Rights and Responsibili-ties" or contact the Office of the ExecutiveVice-Presidentfor information regardinginitiating the appeals process.

Application for Diploma-Graduation

At the time of enrollment for the lastsemester or summer session of worktoward a degree, the student completesan Application for Diploma card.Completion of that card initiates clear-ance procedure toward graduation bythe Graduate College and the Office ofthe Registrar. The student is billed for thegraduation fee along with tuition. If allrequirements for the degree are not metaccording to deadlines specified in theGraduate College Calendar, the studentmust complete a new Application forDiploma at the time of re-enrollment.Applications for diplomas are to be sub-mitted during the first two weeks of a

"regular semester or the first week of asummer session.

EngineeringMS Master of ScienceAdmission to a Program. Some depart-ments require that any student seekingamaster's degree take an examination(e.g. GRE, GMAT) before being admittedto a program of study. See the table on"Graduate Admission Requirements"orcontact the head of the major depart-ment.Basic Requirements. The master'sdegree may be earned by one of threeplans:

Plan I-with thesis, 30 credit hours, con-sisting of 24 hours of course work and sixhours of research;Plan II-with report, 32 credit hours,consisting of 30 hours of course workand two hours of research;Plan III-with no thesis or report, 32 credithours of course work including the cre-ative component. The Plan III programmust contain a creative component thatis explicitly identified on the plan of study.The creative component may be a spe-cial report, an annotated bibliography, aproject in research or design, or othercreative activity, as designated by theadvisory committee.

The number of credits specified foreach plan are minimums set by theGraduate College. Departmental require-ments may exceed these.

The major department, with the ap-proval of the dean of the Graduate Col-lege, decides which alternatives areopen to the candidates. Some depart-ments also require a minimum number ofsemester credit hours of upper-divisionand graduate courses in the major field,including courses taken as an under-graduate.Residence Requirements. Candidatesfor a master's degree must complete aminimum of 21 semester credit hoursfrom OSU if they follow Plan I , or 23 se-mester credit hours if they follow Plan I I orIII. Nine semester credit hours of the 30or 32 required for the degree may becompleted by courses taken at anotheraccredited college or university.

A student who holds a D.V.M., M.D.,D.O., D.D.S., or equivalent professionalmedical degree may receive up to ninehours credit toward a master's degree,subject to the recommendation of theadvisory committee and the approval ofthe dean of the Graduate College. How-ever, a student receiving this credit maynot transfer additional hours to OSU fromother graduate programs.

The last eight semester credit hoursfor the degree must be taken on theStillwater campus unless a written re-quest by the student to take the work atanother location is approved by the headof the major department and the dean ofthe Graduate College.Advisement. The student should go tothe department head, who may assign anadviser or advisory committee to assistthe student in planning and pursuing theentire program for a degree. The advi-sory committee must include a minimumof three members of the Graduate Fac-ulty.Level of Courses Applied to GraduateDegree. Graduate students must enroll inno fewer than 21 semester credit hoursof 5000- and 6000-level courses through

Oklahoma State University as presentedon the plan of study to meet requirementsfor the master's degree.Plan of Study. The preliminary plan ofstudy for the degree must be filed in theGraduate College prior to completion ofthe 17th graduate credit hour for studentsworking for a master's degree in resi-dence. The student should secure theplan of study forms from the GraduateCollege, develop the plan with the ad-viser, and file three copies in the Gradu-ate College. The plan of study must besigned by the adviser and by two othermembers of the graduate faculty in themajor department, and approved by thedean of the Graduate College.

Students seeking a master's degree inTeacher Education must be admitted tothe master's curriculum in Teacher Edu-cation before submitting a plan of study.

The plan of study is subject to modifi-cation as the student progresses, but allchanges must have the approval of theadviser. A final, accurate plan of studymust be filed in the Graduate College bythe end of the second week of the se-mester or session in which the degree isto be conferred. .

Graduate credit used to obtain onemaster's degree cannot be countedtoward another master's degree.Major Subject or Field. A major field ofstudy may cross departmental linessubject to the decision of the major de-partment.

Before receiving a master's degree,the student must have completed in themajor department or field a minimum of16 semester credit hours above theprerequisites required for graduate workin that subject or field.Minor Subject or Field. To minor in asubject or field, a student must complete,as a minimum, enough semester credithours as a graduate student to satisfy,with undergraduate credits, the require-ments for an undergraduate major in thatdepartment. The minor may vary from sixto 15 semester credit hours.

A student may minor in two depart-ments if the requirements are met foreach and the major department and bothminor departments approve.Language Requirements. A candidatefor the master's degree may be requiredto demonstrate a reading knowledge of amodern foreign language. Any suchrequirement of the department is in-cluded on the plan of study and is to befilled out at the time the preliminary planis approved by the student's adviser.

If a foreign language is required, thehead of the major department must cer-tify that it has been met before a finalexamination can be scheduled.


A foreign language requirement for amaster's degree may be met either byexamination or by college credit, accord-ing to individual department requirement.Written Examinations. Some depart-ments require a written examinationcovering the major and minor fields. It isusually taken before the thesis or reporthas been completed. Arrangements fortaking the examination should be madewith the department at least three weeksin advance. The written examination'must be passed before a final examina-tion is scheduled.

A student who fails all or part of thewritten examination should consult thechairman of the examination committeeto find out what must be done beforetaking another examination.Thesis or Report. Any student workingon a thesis or report should obtain acopy of the Graduate College StyleManual, published by and available fromthe Graduate College. It is also availablevia the World Wide Web (http://www.osu-ours.okstate.edu/gradcoll)A thesis orreport must conform to the format specifi-cations set forth in this manual. The styleof the document is to be determined bythe advisory committee and should bereflective of publications in the student'sdiscipline.

After completing the research, thestudent prepares a final draft copy (com-plete and legible final draft) of the pro-posed thesis or report, and submits acopy, along with the abstract, to eachmember of the examining committee,and to the Graduate College. The proofcopy must be signed by the adviser andbe submitted to the Graduate College nolater than the stated deadline date (see"Graduate College Calendar").Thesis. The student must submit to theGraduate College four copies of thethesis with six copies of the abstract nolater than the stated deadline (see"Graduate College Calendar"). The thesiscopies become the property of the Uni-versity. Two copies are filed in the Libraryand two copies are kept by the majordepartment. There is a binding fee, pay-able at the Office of the Bursar.Report. The student must submit to theGraduate College one copy of a report,with six copies of the abstract. It must bebound in a pressboard cover as de-scribed in the Graduate College StyleManual. The final copy of the report, mustbe submitted to the Graduate College nolater than the stated deadline (see"Graduate College Calendar").Human Subjects and Research. Okla-homa State University follows federalguidelines which require a review of anyresearch involving human subjects. Allsuch research must be approved by theInstitutional Review Board (IRB) before

human subjects are involved. Guidelineson how to obtain permission to use hu-man subjects in research are availablefrom the departmental graduate coordi-nator or the executive secretary of theIRB, the Graduate College, or Office ofthe Vice-President for Research. Theinformation provides examples of activi-ties subject to careful review and thosewhich are easily approved.

Because University policy requiresprior approval of all research involvinghuman subjects, the letter from the I RBgranting approval of the research mustbe included in the appendix of any thesisor dissertation submitted to the GraduateCollege in fulfillment of degree objec-tives. Failure to obtain approval for use ofhuman subjects means that the thesis ordissertation cannot be accepted.Final Examination. If the thesis or reportoption is used, the student arranges with,the major department for the final exami-nation after the draft copy of the thesis orreport has been filed in the GraduateCollege and distributed as described inthe preceding section. The final exami-nation may be oral or written or both.The final examination is primarily a de-fense of the thesis or report. If the de-fense is judged inadequate, a decisionon whether to permit re-examination willbe made by the advisory committee.Examinations are open to all members ofthe Graduate Faculty, and may be at-tended by anyone else who obtains thepermission of the committee.

The committee will notify the GraduateCollege immediately of results of the finalexamination. Following satisfactorycompletion of the final examination, thecandidate will make changes in thethesis or report as required by the com-mittee and by the Graduate College, andsubmit it in final form signed by the com-mittee to the Graduate College.

A student who fails to pass either awritten or oral final examination shouldconsult the chairman of the examiningcommittee. Another examination cannotbe given for two months after a failure,and a department may limit the numberof times that the examination may berepeated.

If the non-thesis option is used, thedepartment head or adviser must notifythe dean of the Graduate College that thestudent has satisfactorily completed alldepartmental requirements. Both positiveand negative results must be reported tothe Graduate College.Time Limit. Students are expected tocomplete the requirements for themaster's degree within five years fromfirst enrollment after admission to themaster's degree program. Any extensionof this time limit must be approved by the

IiGraduate Faculty Council

To determine whether or not coursestaken more than five years before theanticipated date of the degree can becounted toward the degree, the studentshould consult the departmental gradu-ate adviser. Such courses cannot beaccepted except on a complete plan ofstudy which gives the date that the re-quirements for the degree are to be com-pleted. They must be a part of a studyplan and can be approved only for aspecified time. Courses taken more than10 years prior to actual graduation willnot be accepted on a plan of study with-out a formal request from the advisorycommittee and approval of the GraduateFaculty Council.Continuous Enrollment. A graduatestudent must maintain continuous enroll-ment during the entire research phase ofthe program. Such enrollment is notlimited by the maximum number of credithours of thesis which may apply to thedegree. Continuous enrollment can bemet with six credit hours during each 12-month period or two credit hours in eachof the fall, spring and summer semesters.Students who are using physical or fac-ulty resources of the University are ex-pected to be enrolled during each se-mester in at least two credit hours.

Failure to maintain continuous enroll-ment requires submission of a new appli-cation for readmission to the graduateprogram. If readmitted, all requirementsin effect at the time of readmission, mustbe completed.Special Requirements for SelectedMaster's Degrees. Requirements for theMaster of Agriculture, Master of Architec-ture, Master of Architectural Engineering,Master of Business Administration, andMaster of Engineering are described indetail elsewhere in the Catalog. Eachdegree has requirements that are pro-gram specific and exceed the minimalrequirements specified by the GraduateCollege.

A student who holds a D.V.M., M.D.,D.O., D. D.S., or equivalent professionalmedical degree may also have the mini-mum credit hour requirement reduced to60 hours, subject to the recommendationof their advisory committee and the ap-proval of the dean of the Graduate Col-lege. A student may only receive one 30-hour credit reduction in the Ph.D. require-ments regardless of the number ofmaster's or professional degrees that heor she holds.Admission to a Program. A student whowishes to earn a Doctor of Philosophydegree may be required to take examina-tions based on a year of graduate study,or to produce other evidence of scholarlyachievement consistent with expectedacademic competence in a field of spe-cialization. Contact the head of the majordepartment for the requirements for ad-mission to the doctoral program.

The instructions for admission, regis-tration, and other information given under"General Regulations" are also appli-cable to those who are working towarddoctoral degrees.Temporary Adviser. At the beginning ofa student's doctoral program, the head ofthe major department will designate amember of the Graduate Faculty to serveas temporary adviser to the student. Thetemporary adviser will arrange the col-lection of information about the studentand assist him or her in the early selec-tion of courses.Advisory Committee. Upon recommen-dation of the head of the major depart-ment or of the graduate committee of thedepartment, an advisory committee of notfewer than four members will be ap-pointed by the dean of the GraduateCollege. The duties of the advisorycommittee consist of (1) advising thestudent, (2) assisting the student in pre-paring a plan of study, (3) preparing andadministering the qualifying examination,(4) assisting in planning and conductingthe research, (5) supervising the writingof and passing upon the dissertation, and(6) conducting the dissertation defense.

The major adviser of the advisorycommittee must be a full member of theGraduate Faculty. Under special circum-stances, the dean of the Graduate Col-lege may approve a substitute adviser.Each doctoral committee must have atleast one member of the Graduate Fac-ulty from outside the student's majordepartment.

The student should consult the mem-bers of the advisory committee frequentlyand keep them informed on the progressof his or her work.Preliminary Conference . As soon asthe student is notified that an advisorycommittee has been appointed, thestudent should arrange with the


chairperson for a conference with thecommittee. During the conference, thepreparation and qualifications of thestudent for graduate work will be dis-cussed and appropriate plans made forfuture study.Plan of Study. After the preliminaryconference, the student should completethe plan of study for the degree, have itapproved by the advisory committee, andfile three copies in the Graduate College.

The plan must include all the accept-able graduate work that has been com-pleted and all that will be taken for thedoctoral degree. The plan should in-clude approximately 75 percent ofcourses at the 5000-6000 level and atleast 15 hours dissertation credit. Formsfor preparing the plan of study may beobtained in the Graduate College. Theplan of study must include a minimum of60 hours beyond the master's degree.Courses from the master's degree arenot listed on the doctoral plan of study.

Because the acceptance of workwhich the student desires to use towardthe degree rests with the advisory com-mittee, it is important to plan a completeprogram and have it approved by thedean of the Graduate College as soon aspossible. Courses taken more than 10years prior to actual graduation will notbe accepted on a plan of study without aformal request from the advisory commit-tee and approval of the Graduate FacultyCouncil.

The plan of study is to be submittedprior to the pre-enrollment date duringthe second full semester of enrollment(beyond the master's degree).

Changes in the plan can be madewith the approval of the advisory commit-tee and the dean of the Graduate Col-lege. A final, accurate and approvedplan must be filed at the beginning of thesemester or summer session in whichthe degree is to be conferred.Minor Subject or Field. As a means ofgiving depth and breadth to their doctoralprograms, most departments requirework in a minor field or at least a selec-tion of extra-departmentalcourses. Tominor in a subject or field, as a minimum,the graduate student must completegraduate level work beyond require -

ments for an undergraduate degree inthe minor department.A department inwhich a student indicates a minor mustcertify to the dean of the Graduate Col-lege the satisfactory completion of re-quirements for a minor.Character of Work. The satisfactorycompletion of course work (see " GeneralRegulations") is only one requirement forreceiving the degree. The student mustalso: (1) pass a qualifying examination,(2) prepare an acceptable dissertation,(3) demonstrate the ability to do indepen -

dent study, (4) pass a defense of disser-tation, and (5) comply with other require-ments of the major department.Residence Requirements. A minimumof 30 semester credit hours must betaken at Oklahoma State University. Allcredit accepted toward the degree be-yond the master's degree must be on thestudent's plan of study and be approvedby the advisory committee.

One year of the last two years must bespent in continuous residence at thisinstitution.

With prior approval by the advisorycommittee, the student may do researchfor the degree in absentia. Researchconducted while not in residence isunder the supervision of the major ad-viser and the advisory committee.

Courses taken at the University Cen-ter at Tulsa (UCT) while registeredthrough Oklahoma State University areconsidered residence credit. Coursestaken from the other three cooperatinguniversities at UCT are considered to betransfer credit.Language Requirement. Foreign lan-guage or other proficiency requirementsmay be specified to meet the need forspecific skills and areas of knowledgethat facilitate research and contribute towider understanding. Specific require-ments are determined by degree-grant-ing departmentsor programs. In manyfields, a reading knowledge of one or twomodern foreign languages is an impor-tant part of scholarship and necessaryfor research. In other fields, proficiency inspecial and related disciplines may berequired that will contribute to the needsof the individual program.Qualifying Examination. The qualifyingexamination is comprehensive, coveringthe entire area of the student's graduatestudy. The examination may be written,oral or both. The examination must bepassed not less than six months beforethe degree is granted (see "Admission toCandidacy"). The results of the examina-tion are reported to the Graduate Collegeon Form G-4.

Before taking the qualifying examina-tion, the student must have an approvedplan of study and dissertation proposalon file in the Graduate College, and havethe approval of the advisory committee.

In case of failure to pass any part ofthis examination, the student will benotified in writing of the conditions underwhich another examination can betaken. A second examination may not begiven earlier than four months after afailure.

If the results of the second examina-tion are unsatisfactory, no other exami-nation may be given without the approvalof the Graduate Council.

Admission to Candidacy. A studentmust be admitted to candidacy at leastsix months before the commencement inwhich the Doctor of Philosophy degreewill be received.

Before being admitted to candidacy,the student must have passed the quali-fying examination, and have an ap-proved plan of study and dissertationoutline filed in the Graduate College.Dissertation. A dissertation (doctoralthesis) is required of each doctoral-can-didate. The subject of the dissertationmust be approved by the advisory com-mittee and the dissertation is preparedunder the direction of members of thecommittee or a special dissertation com-mittee approved by the advisory commit-tee chairperson. -

The dissertation must follow specifica-tions in the Graduate College StyleManual, available from the GraduateCollege. It is also available via the WorldWide Web (http://www.osu-ours.okstate.edu/gradcoll).All disserta-tion copies must have the necessaryapproval signatures before submission tothe Graduate College.

After completing the research, thestudent prepares a final draft copy (com-plete and legible) of the proposed disser-tation and submits a copy, along with theabstract, to each member of the commit-tee and to the Graduate College. Thecopy being submitted to the GraduateCollege must be approved by thestudent's dissertation adviser. The finaldraft copy must be submittedto theGraduate College no later than the stateddeadline date (see "Graduate CollegeCalendar").Human Subjects and Research. Okla-homa State University follows federalguidelines which require a review of anyresearch involving human subjects. Allsuch research must be approved by theInstitutional Review Board (IRB) beforehuman subjects are involved. Guidelineson how to obtain permission to use hu-man subjects in research are availablefrom the departmental graduate coordi-nator or the executive secretary of theIRB, the Graduate College, or Office ofthe Vice-President for Research. Theinformation provides examples of activi-ties subject to careful review and thosewhich are easily approved.

Because University policy requiresprior approval of all research involvinghuman subjects, the letter from the IRBgranting approval of the research mustbe included in the appendix of any dis-sertation submitted to the Graduate Col-lege in fulfillment of degree objectives.Failure to obtain approval for use of hu-man subjects means that the thesis ordissertation cannot be accepted.


Final Examination. The final examinationis primarily a defense of the dissertation.If the defense is judged inadequate, a re-examination decision will be made bythe advisory committee. The examinationis open to all members of the GraduateFaculty and may be attended by anyoneelse who obtains the permission of thecommittee.

The committee will notify the GraduateCollege immediately of results of the finalexamination. Following satisfactorycompletion of the final examination, thecandidate will make any changes re-quired by the committee and by theGraduate College and submit the disser-tation in final form signed by the commit-tee to the Graduate College.

Four copies of the dissertation in finalform and six copies of the abstract mustbe submitted to the Graduate College nolater than the stated deadline (see"Graduate College Calendar"). The dis-

sertation copies become the property ofthe University; two copies are filed in theLibrary and two copies are kept by themajor department. There is a binding fee,payable at the Office of the Bursar.

All dissertations are microfilmed byUniversity Microfilms, Inc. The student isrequired to pay a fee for microfilmingthecomplete document and for publicationof an abstract of about 350 words. Thestudent must complete a University Mi-crofilms Agreement Form after the disser-tation has been accepted by the Gradu-ate College. Copyrighting the disserta-tion is not required, but can be done at asmall additional cost with the approval ofthe dean of the Graduate College.Time Limit. Students are expected tocomplete the requirements of the Ph.D.degree within seven years from their firstenrollment in the degree program. Afterthat time a new program of study must bearranged with the advisory committeeand filed in the Graduate College. Nocourses over 10 years old at the time ofgraduation may be used to fulfill require-ments.

If all requirements for the degree arenot completed within four years after thequalifying examination was passed, asecond qualifying examination must berepeated successfully.

Any exception to these time limitsmust be approved by the Graduate Fac-ulty Council.ContinuousEnroliment. A graduatestudent must maintain continuous enroll-ment during the entire research phase ofthe program. Such enrollment is notlimited by the maximum number of credithours of thesis which apply to the de-gree. Continuous enrollment can be metwith six credit hours during each 12month period or two credit hours in eachof the fall, spring and summer semesters.

Students who are using physical or fac-ulty resources of the University are ex-pected to be enrolled during each se-mester in at least two credit hours.

Failure to maintain continuous enroll-ment requires submission of a new appli-cation for readmission to the graduateprogram. If readmitted, all requirementsof the Graduate College and the depart-ment in effect at the time of readmission,must be completed.

Astudent planning to seek the Doctor ofEducation degree must provide specificinformation as requested by the Collegeof Education (i.e., vita, letters of recom-mendation, protocols of scholarly work,

and test scores). Test scores requiredare the Miller Analogies Test and/or theaptitude portion of the Graduate RecordExamination. A student should contacthis or her department head to determinewhich tests are required and to obtainmaterials concerning the personnelfolder.

When the student's personnel folder iscomplete, the graduate review commit-tee will review the student's records andrecommend to the dean of the GraduateCollege whether or not the studentshould be admitted. The dean of theGraduate College will inform the studentby letter of admission status.Temporary Adviser. At the beginning ofa student's doctoral program, the head ofthe major department will designate amember of the Graduate Faculty to serveas temporary adviser to the student. Thetemporary adviser will guide the studentin the selection of courses for the firstsemester or summer session.Advisory Committee. Upon recommen-dation of the head of the major depart-ment or of the graduate committee of thedepartment, an advisory committee of notfewer than four members will be ap-pointed by the dean of the GraduateCollege. At least one member of theadvisorycommittee must be from a de-partment or program outside thestudent's major field of study. The dutiesof the advisory committee consist of(1) advising the student, (2) assisting thestudent in preparing a program of study,(3) preparing and administering thequalifying examination, (4) assisting inplanning and conducting the research,(5) supervising the writing and subse-quent approval of the dissertation,and(6) conducting the final examination.Preliminary Conference. As soon as thestudent is notified that an advisory com-mittee has been appointed, a conferenceshould be arranged with the chairpersonand committee. Before the conferencethe student must see that the chairpersonhas transcripts of previous work andother information that will be needed inthe conference; During the conference ,the preparation of the student for gradu-ate study will be discussed and plansmade for future study.Plan of Study. After the preliminary con-ference, the student should complete theplan of study for the degree, and havefour copies approved and signed by theadvisory committee. One copy will beretained by the student and three copiessent to the Graduate College.

The plan must include all the accept-able graduate work that has been com-pleted and all that will be taken for thedegree. The plan should include ap-proximately75 percent of courses at the5000-6000 level and 10 hours


dissertation credit. Forms for preparingthe plan of study may be obtained in theGraduate College. The plan of studymust include a minimum of 60 hoursbeyond the master's degree or 30 hoursbeyond the Ed.S. Courses from themaster's degree or Ed.S. are not listed onthe doctoral plan of study.

Because the acceptance of workwhich the student desires to use towardthe degree rests with the advisory com-mittee, it is important to plan a completeprogram and have it approved by thedean of the Graduate College as soon aspossible. Courses taken more than 10years prior to actual graduation will notbe accepted on a plan of study without aformal request from the advisory commit-tee and approval of the Graduate FacultyCouncil.

The plan of study is to be submittedprior to the pre-enrollment date duringthe second full semester of enrollment(beyond the master's degree).

Changes in the plan can be madewith the approval of the advisory commit-tee and the dean of the Graduate Col-lege. A final, accurate and approvedplan must be filed at the beginning of thesemester or summer session in whichthe degree is to be conferred.Character of Work. Completing a num-ber of courses with a "B" average (see"General Regulations") is one of the re-quirements for the doctoral degree. Thestudent must also: (1) pass a qualifyingexamination, (2) prepare an acceptabledissertation, (3) demonstrate the ability todo independent study, (4) pass a de-fense of dissertation, and (5) comply withother requirements of the major field ordepartment.Residence Requirements. A minimumof 30 semester credit hours must betaken at Oklahoma State University. Oneacademic year of the last two, as deter-mined by the appropriate department,must be spent in continuous residence atthis institution.

The residence requirement can bemet by two semesters of full-time gradu-ate study. Any other way of meeting theresidence requirement must have theapproval of the student's advisory com-mittee and of the dean of the GraduateCollege.

Courses taken at the University Cen-ter at Tulsa (UCT) while registeredthrough Oklahoma State University areconsidered residence credit. Coursestaken from the other three cooperatinguniversities are considered to be transfercredit.Foreign Language and Research In-struments Proficiency. All candidateswill be expected to have a command ofthose instruments necessary in the study

of educational problems. The doctoraladvisory committee of each candidatemay require evidence of proficiency inone or more foreign languages, educa-tional research, statistics, and computerusage.Qualifying Examination. Before takingthe qualifying examination, the studentmust have completed the main areas in aplan of study which has been approvedby the advisory committee, have theapproval of his or her advisory commit-tee, and have an approved outline for thedissertation on file in the Graduate Col-lege and in the office of the departmentconcerned.

The qualifying examination is de-signed to measure the student ' s profi-ciency in the field of specialization, thebreadth and depth of his or her profes-sional education background and his orher knowledge of cognate subjects. Theexamination may be both written and oralbut part of it must be written. This exami-nation must be passed and the resultreported to the Graduate College onForm G-4 at least six months before thedegree is granted (see "Admission toCandidacy" in the "Doctor of Philosophy"section).

In case of failure to pass this examina-tion, the student will be notified by theexamining committee of the conditionunder which another examination maybe taken. A student who fails on eitherthe qualifying or final examination cannottake another examination for fourmonths. If the result of the second exami-nation is unsatisfactory, no other exami-nation may be given without the approvalof the Graduate Council.Dissertation. A dissertation (doctoralthesis) is required of each candidate forthe Doctor of Education degree. Thedissertation has three principal functions:(1) training in research, (2) promotingprofessional growth, and (3) contributingto professional knowledge in education.Not every dissertation will be expected toserve these three functions in the sameway or to the same extent.

The format specifications, proce-dures, and regulations for the dissertationare the same as for the Ph.D. The Ed.D.candidate should refer to the "Doctor ofPhilosophy" section on dissertations andsubmission procedures through theGraduate College.Human Subjects and Research. Okla-homa State University follows federalguidelines which require a review of anyresearch involving human subjects. Allsuch research must be approved by theInstitutionalReview Board (IRB) beforehuman subjects are involved. Guidelineson how to obtain permission to use hu-man subjects in research are available

from the departmental graduate coordi-nator or the executive secretary of theIRB, the Graduate College, or Office ofthe Vice-President for Research. Theinformation provides examples of activi-ties subject to careful review and thosewhich are easily approved.

Because University policy requiresprior approval of all research involvinghuman subjects, the letter from the I RBgranting approval of the research mustbe included in the appendix of any thesisor dissertation submitted to the GraduateCollege in fulfillment of degree objec-tives. Failure to obtain approval for use ofhuman subjects means that the thesis ordissertation cannot be accepted.Time Limit. Students are expected tocomplete the requirements for the Doctorof Education degree within seven yearsafter beginning course work in the de-gree program. Otherwise a new programof study must be arranged with the advi-sory committee and filed in the GraduateCollege. No courses over 10 years old atthe time of graduation may be used tofulfill requirements.

If all requirements for the degree arenot completed within four years after thequalifying examination was passed, asecond qualifying examination must berepeated successfully.

Any exception to these time limitsmust be approved by the Graduate Fac-ulty Council.ContinuousEnrollment. Continuousenrollment must be maintained duringthe entire research phase of the pro-gram. Such enrollment is not limited bythe maximum number of credit hours ofthesis which apply to the degree. Con-tinuous enrollment can be met with sixcredit hours during each 12-month pe-riod or two credit hours in each of the fall,spring and summer semesters. Studentswho are using physical or faculty re-sources of the University are expected tobe enrolled during each semester in atleast two credit hours.

Failure to maintain continuous enroll-ment requires submission of a new appli-cation for readmission to the graduateprogram. If readmitted, all requirementsof the Graduate College and the depart-ment in effect at the time of readmission,must be completed.

Specialist inEducation DegreeProgram (Ed.S.)Education

The Specialist in Education degree isa post-master's professional degree. It isconferred as an appropriate recognitionof achievement as evidenced by:


1.Successful professional performancein the area of the student's specializa-tion.

2. Satisfactory completion of a programof graduate study of approximatelytwo academic years.

3. Satisfactory performance on examina-tions designed to reveal the student'sundertaking of the field of specializa-tion and its relation to other areas.

4. Preparation of a thesis dealing withsome aspect of concern to thestudent's profession and its defensebefore a committee of the GraduateFaculty.

Admission. The student can secureapplication forms from the dean of theGraduate College along with informationconcerning areas and programs of studyoffered. The application will be evaluatedby the faculty of the appropriate depart-ment and by the Graduate College.Admissionto a Program. A studentplanning to seek the Specialist in Educa-tion degree must provide specific infor-mation as requested by the College ofEducation.(i.e., vita, letters of recommen-dation, protocols of scholarly work, andtest scores). Test scores required are theMiller Analogies Test and/or the aptitudeportion of the Graduate Record Examina-tion. A student should contact the depart-ment head to determine which tests arerequired and obtain materials concern-ing the personnel folder.

When the student's personnel folder iscomplete, the graduate review commit-tee for Specialist in Education programswill review the student's records andrecommend to the dean of the GraduateCollege whether or not the studentshould be admitted to the program. Thedean of the Graduate College will informthe student by letter regarding admission.Temporary Adviser. At the beginning ofa student's Specialist in Education pro-gram, the head of the major departmentwill designate a member of the GraduateFaculty to serve as temporary adviser tothe student. The temporary adviser willguide the student in the selection ofcourses for the first semester or summersession.Advisory Committee. The dean of theGraduate College will appoint an advi-sory committee nominated by the head ofthe department in which he studentwishes to specialize. This committee(1) conducts the preliminary examinationand conference, (2) approves the pro-posed plan of study, (3) supervises thestudent's progress in the program,(4) supervises the research, and(5)arranges for and conducts the finalexamination. The advisory committeeconsists of three members of the gradu-ate faculty, with the chair holding associ -

ate or full membership status. All threemembers may be chosen within thestudent's area of study. Additional mem-bers may come from other disciplines.Plan of Study. As soon as practical afterthe appointment of the committee, thestudent will arrange with the chair for aconference for the purpose of planning aprogram of study. The plan of study willinclude all graduate work required tocomplete the program. It will be filed, intriplicate, in the Graduate College. Thisplan may be modified with the approvalof the advisory committee and the deanof the Graduate College. Courses takenmore than 10 years prior to actual gradu-ation will not be accepted on a plan ofstudy without a formal request from theadvisory committee and approval of theGraduate Faculty Council. The plan ofstudy should be submitted prior to enroll-ment for the second semester of full-timestudy.Credit-hour Requirements. A minimumof 60 semester credit hours beyond thebachelor's degree or 33 hours beyondthe master's degree are required for theSpecialist in Education degree. This mayinclude as many as 10 credit hours forthe practicum study and accompanyingreport.Character of Work. Completing an ap-propriate number of courses with a "B"average (see "General Regulations") isonly one of the requirements for thisdegree. The student must also: (1) pass aqualifying examination, (2) conduct anappropriate study of education, (3) showqualities of professional leadership, and(4) pass a final examination.Residence Requirements. The candi-date must be enrolled full-time at OSU forone academic year of the two yearsrequired for the degree. Two summersessions are considered equivalent toone semester for purposes of meetingthe residence requirement.

Ordinarily the last 20 hours, includingthe study and report, must be earned inresidence on the Stillwater campus ofOklahoma State University. Any deviationmust be recommended by the advisorycommittee and approved by the dean ofthe Graduate College. No more than ninehours may be transferred from anotheruniversity.Qualifying Examination. A qualifyingexamination is required of all candidatesfor the Specialist in Education degree.The nature of this exam is determinedwithin each specialization.Time Limit. Students must complete allrequirements for the Specialist in Educa-tion degree within five years after begin-ning course work in the degree program.No course over 10 years old at the timeof graduation may be used to satisfy

degree requirements. Any exception tothese time limits must be approved by theGraduate Faculty Council after recom-mendation from the advisory committee.ContinuousEnroliment. Continuousenrollment must be maintained duringthe duration of the program throughenrollment in at least six credit hoursover any 12 month period. Normally thisrequirement is met by enrolling in at leasttwo credit hours in each of the spring,summer and fall terms. Students who areusing physical or faculty resources of theUniversity are expected to be enrolledeach semester in at least two hours.

Failure to maintain continuous enroll-ment requires submission of a new appli-cation for readmission to the graduateprogram. If readmitted, all requirementsof the Graduate College and the programin effect at the time of readmission mustbe completed.Credit toward an Ed.D. or a Ph.D. Astudent holding an Ed.S. may have thecredit hour requirements for a Ph.D. orEd.D. reduced to 30 hours subject torecommendation by the advisory com-mittee and approval of the dean of theGraduate College. However, all of theremaining 30 hours toward the doctoraldegree must be taken at the 5000 or6000 level and all must be taken at OSU.
