The Changing Needs of Society Cause Educators to Evaluate Curriculum and Meet Student Needs The UNI curriculum, in a continuing ef- fort to meet students' and society's needs, has experienced some noteworthy changes within the past year. A bachelor of science degree, majors in criminology and Euro- pean studies, and minors in international affairs and interpretive communication were all introduced to the UNI curriculum. Although offered to other colleges and universities throughout the nation, a bachelor of science degree was previously unavailable to UNI students. The bachelor of science degree will be available in the areas of geology, chemistry, physics, and applied physics. While some bachelor of arts programs in science have remained, other bachelor of arts degrees, including chemistry major B, physics major B, and physics major C, have been dropped. Students receiving a bachelor of science degree will be better qualified for employ- ment opportunities due to the increased concentration of study involved. I.eroy McGrew, head of the UNI Department of Chemistry, said, “UNI students will be able to compete for employment opportunities on an equal basis with graduates of other institutions. Students preparing for careers in chemistry need a complete program of appropriate courses. Our BS program pro- vides the needed courses and also allows room for general education and some electives. Pat Geadelmann, assistant vice president to academic affairs, stated, “The new BS degree will better prepare those students interested in pursuing graduate studies in science. A limited number of core require- ment changes will be needed to fulfill the new BS degrees. The bachelor of science programs resulted from the needs of students in society and the changes in de- mand in the areas of science, mathematics, and technology. The College of Social and Behavioral Sciences introduced a major in criminology. a major in European studies, and a minor in international affairs. The criminology major is the only type of program of its kind in the state. This major grew out of an existing minor which had become in- creasingly popular. Several new courses have been introduced to fill this major. Employment opportunities would be available in correctional facilities; youth centers; juvenile homes; federal, state and local organizations; and private institutions. A major in European studies is a joint Uni students will be able to compete for employment opportunities on an equal basis with graduates of other universities. -Leroy McGrew effort by the Department of History and the Department of Modern Languages. This program is designed as a second major for students with a first in history, a foreign language, or Russian area studies. This program promotes inter- disciplinary study and international ex- periences and emphasizes modern Euro- pean history. Opportunities for employ- ment exist in international business, government, and international religious and charitable organizations. The minor in international affairs prepares students interested in careers in D. W« ntr various areas of national government, international service and international business. Geadelmann explained, “Since we are becoming increasingly involved in world happenings, there needs to be a program which prepares interested students for the cultures and systems of other countries. The College of Humanities and Fine Arts is offering a minor in interpretive communication. It was an outgrowth of new developments in the area of com- munication. Phyllis Carlin, associate professor in the Department of Com- munication and Theatre Arts, remarked, “The interpretive communication minor provides skills in the performance of literature as therapy, public policy pro- motion, values investigations, awareness raising, and as education. These curriculum changes marked the introduction of a new approval system by the Iowa Board of Regents. Future changes or additions to present pro- grams will only be open to approval every two years, while entirely new ma- jors or minors may be considered at anytime. James Martin, UNI vice president and provost, noted that curriculum changes are a constant process, citing faculty and student interests, changes in knowledge, and varying job opportunities as reasons for changes. Martin stated, “The new programs offered at UNI will expand the opportunities and options for UNI students both intellectually and vocationally. 20 Carrioilum Chugn •Jeff Simon
