Computer Services Center

Bloomsburg State College has made extensive use of computers for more than a
The Computer Services Center, located in Benjamin Franklin Hall, serves the
diverse needs of the academic, administrative, and research communities on campus.
In 966 the college installed its first computer, an IBM 401 It was replaced with
a Spectra 70-35 in 1970. In 1972 the college moved intoanother generation of hardware
by purchasing a UN I VAC 70/3 with access for ten terminals. Peripheral to the
UN I VAC was a system including six disc drives, four magnetic tape units, two high
speed line printers, a card punch, and a card reader.
Increased use of the computer as an instructional, managerial, and research tool
justified the installation of a UN I VAC 1 100-21, a most powerful and versatile central
processing unit with a main memory storage of one million bytes (megabyte) or
characters of information. This new computer possesses four times the memory storage
and on-line disk mass storage, and four times faster processing time than the previous
computer. The new system is directly accessible by both Center and remote terminals
and will support fifty-nine interactive users.
Within many academic programs including the Computer and Information
Sciences major, students are exposed to the contemporary computer and the data
processing technology of a data-based system, on line inquiry, time sharing, program
development from a terminal, and dynamically changing files. Faculty working directly
with the computer have increased time to use computer assisted instruction material
(CAI) such as tutorials, drills and simulations to supplement classroom and lab

potential of an applicant when it appears that the environmental background may have
adversely affected grades and/or standardized test scores. The Dean of Admissions may
require an applicant for the Center for Academic Development to file supplementary
information as is needed for proper consideration.
Opportunities for financial aid are described in a brochure which may be secured
from the Office of Financial Aid. (See Section 3.03.)

or to the Dean of Admissions.

4.06

Early Admission

Outstanding high school students may be considered for admission upon

may be submitted by a transfer applicant insteadof the Scholastic Aptitude Test results,
except that test results are not required from applicants who successfully completed 30
or more semester hours of college credit. Transfer applicants must request each college
attended to send an official transcript to the Dean of Admissions, regardless of whether
was earned at the other institution(s).
For a transfer student to be considered for admission, he/she must be certified
as in good standing academically and otherwise in the college last attended and must
have a quality point average of 2.0 or better on a 4.0 system for all courses in which

Campus Visits

Personal interviews are welcomed but not required. Arrangements can be made
an interview by writing or calling the Office of Admissions (717-389-3316).
Applicants should bring an unofficial high school transcript if an application is not on
file. Personal interviews are available Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
A number of campus visitation days are held during the academic year.
Visitation days consist of a general meeting with Admissions personnel, students, and
administrative personnel, a question-and-answer session, a tour of the campus, lunch,
and academic department meetings. Participation in oneof these visitation days may be
more meaningful than a personal interview because applicants have the opportunity to
meet directly with academic faculty in the departments of their interest. Specific
information and dates are available upon request from the Dean of Admissions.

Off Campus Visitations

Each year, the staff in the Office of Admissions visits high schools and
community colleges throughout Pennsylvania, and neighboring states, participating in
approximately 70 college night/career day programs, and the Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh College Fair programs. Prospective applicants are encouraged to check with
their high school or community college counselors to determine if an Admissions
representative will be visiting their institution or attending a nearby college night

program.

4.10 Orientation

New students are required to participate in orientation sessions intended to make
their start in college as

smooth and

effective as possible.

Freshmen entering

in the fall

semester are scheduled for one of four Sunday-to-Tuesday summer orientations. There
is a single one-and-one-half day summer orientation for fall transfers - also beginning
on a Sunday. For students who begin their academic programs in the summer or in
January, orientation is incorporated in the programs at their beginning. Orientation
information is sent to new students after their acceptance by the college and their
payment of admission fees. Fall freshmen receive this mailing in early May prior to their
fall

enrollment.

The

goals of orientation are: to familiarize students with the college,

its

people,

programs, services, and facilities; to help new students meet one another; to facilitate
educational and life planning, including development of good study skills and the
preparation of the first class schedule; to promote good human and interpersonal
relations among people of varied racial and social backgrounds; and to satisfy certain
pre-enrollment requirements such as the diagnostic reading test, the new student
questionnaire, and I.D. card processing. There are also opportunities for recreational,
social,

and co-curricular

activities.

Of Former Students

Students who, having been formally admitted to degree study and attended
Bloomsburg State College, fail to enroll or withdraw for any academic semester,
regardless of the reason, must apply for readmission if they wish to re-enter.
Readmitted students are responsible for the graduation requirements and
academic policies which exist at the time of reentrance.
The Dean of Admissions may require an applicant for readmission to file a letter
containing such supplementary information as is needed for proper consideration.
Students under academic dismissal are ineligible for readmission for one
calendar year. They should present evidence of successful achievement at another
college or university as part of any application for readmission.

Leave Of Absence
A student may request a leave of absence for a specified period by completing the

appropriate forms at the Office of Admissions. To be eligible for a leave, a student must
be in Academic Good Standing and must request the leave prior to the registration date
of the intended period of absence.

Advanced Placement
A student may receive a maximum

total of 64 semester hours of credit by
examination or experiential learning. Credit may be awarded for successful completion
of institutional examinations and/or approved external examinations. The college
recognizes two external examination programs: the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) and the Advanced Placement Program of the College Entrance
Examination Board.
The minimum score for awarding credit for general CLEP examinations is the
50th percentile of the Sophomore national norms. Credit is awarded for the subject
CLEP examinations for achievement at or above the mean score achieved by students
in the national norm sample who earned the grade of "C" in a regular college course in
the subject. Minimum scores for awarding credit and the amount of credit granted can
be secured by writing the Dean of Admissions.
A score of 5 or 4 on an Advanced Placement examination exempts a student from
the introductory course in the tested area and gives credit. Credit and advanced
placement are awarded in Calculus for a grade of 3. A score of 3 in all other areas
exempts a student, without credit, from the introductory course. Advanced placement
is not granted for grades of 2 or

Student Responsibility
It is the responsibility of the student to know and observe the academic policies
and regulations of the College; to confine registration to courses for which the
prerequisites have been satisfied and to meet the requirements for graduation.
In case of changes by the College in graduation or curriculum requirements, a

who attends without interruption may choose to satisfy either the
requirements as they existed at the time of entrance or the new requirements. In the
latter case, the student is responsible for knowing and understanding the new
requirements. A student who withdraws from the College for one or more semesters
must apply for readmission. A readmitted student is governed in this matter by the rules
of readmission (see Section 4. 11 ). A part-time student must apply to the Vice President
for Academic Affairs for permission to be graduated under the original requirements.

Academic Advisement
Entering students who upon application for admission indicated their preferred
curriculum are assigned to faculty advisers who specialize in advisement in these areas.
Assignments to advisers are made by the Coordinator of Academic Advisement with
advice of department chairpersons and deans.
Applicants for admission who are undecided about their curriculum should state
undeclared on the application instead of specifying a curriculum.
Students with questions or problems should seek assistance in the Office of

Credit by Examination

Credit by Examination

A student may petition for the privilege of establishing credit in a course or
courses listed in the catalogue through a comprehensive examination instead of through
registration and class attendance. The following regulations govern this provision:
The student must present evidence of adequate experience with the course
content either through experience other than college attendance or through independent
study of the course content.

A student may not petition for an examination in a course audited, nor in a course
from which a

grade has been recorded.

The student must present evidence of equivalent experience if the course involves
laboratory or studio work.

The examination must cover the course syllabus in a comprehensive manner.
Suitable standardized examinations may be used. The examination must be written or,

Quality Point Average

A number called the Quality Point Average (abbreviated QPA) is computed
the record of courses taken at Bloomsburg State College with grades of A,B,C,D,
and E. The computation is as follows:
Multiply the number of semester hours for each course by the number of

quality points for the grade in the course, and add the products.
Divide the sum obtained in the first step by the total number of semester

hours represented by the courses.
"Semester QPA" is computed by including only the courses of a single
semester. The "Cumulative QPA" is that computed by including all courses taken to
date at Bloomsburg State College. If a course has been successfully repeated, the credits
are counted only once in the computation. If a course is successfully repeated at another
accredited institution of higher education, the credits for the failure at Bloomsburg
State College are deleted from the computation.

which substantially duplicate the content of courses accepted for transfer.
When the substitution of transfer credit for a required course is in question
because the course was taken in an unaccredited institution or because the description
or standards of the course are unclear, a student is entitled to an opportunity to validate
the course by examination. When they are available, standardized examinations are
used. (See Section 5.01 .for information on credit by examination.)
Correspondence courses are subject to acceptance to a total that does not exceed
fifteen semester hours if taken from an accredited college or university and acceptable
by that institution toward graduation in a baccalaureate degree curriculum.
Courses taken in another institution on a pass-fail basis are acceptable if they
conform to the conditions for such grades at Bloomsburg State College.
A transfer student is issued an evaluation sheet which stipulates the requirements for graduation which remain to be met. This is subject to revision in the light of
subsequent changes in the evaluation of the transcript.

Arts and Sciences, the School of Professional Studies, and the School of Business. The
requirements for the curricula are stated in the chapters which deal with these schools.
With the exception of students interested in studying in the programs in the
School of Business or in the Nursing program in the School of Professional Studies, all
baccalaureate degree seeking students are assigned to the School of Arts and Sciences
upon admission to the college. Students may declare themselves "undecided", or may
express an interest in studying in any of the arts and sciences, pre- professional, teacher
education or professional studies majors. In the latter case, they are tentatively assigned
to advisors in those areas. In either case, a student must have committed himself/herself
and received admission to a curriculum by the end of the sophomore year. (Students who
transfer to Bloomsburg State College with junior standing have a one semester grace
period on this requirement.)

When a student makes a tentative choice of a major he/she is assigned
preliminary or prerequisite courses required in that major. In curricula where admission
is

selective or restrictive at the junior year entry-level, as in the case in several

programs

School of Professional Studies, the college is not bound to admit the student if
he/she is not admissable according to the competition for available spaces or other
in the

selective criteria.

Students electing to major in two departments must have a major advisor in each
department, meet all of the major requirements of each department and all of the
general education requirements. (See Section 6.4.) Double majors in some departments
may require more than the minimum 128 credits for graduation. Double majors in
departments in two different schools must have the permission of both school deans to
declare a double major.

6.2

Credit

Each curriculum which leads to a baccalaureate degree requires the successful
completion of 1 28 semester hours of credit. A semester hour is defined as the credit for
one weekly period of fifty minutes in lecture, discussion, or recitation for one semester.
In case a course requires laboratory, shop or studio experience, two or in some cases three
periods are considered as equivalent to one period of lecture, discussion or recitation.

6.3

Non-credit Developmental Courses

Degrees
The degrees. Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) and Bachelor of Science (B.S.) are
conferred for programs offered in the School of Arts and Sciences.
The aim of a program which leads to the degree. Bachelor of Arts, is to offer the
student opportunity for a liberal education through study in both breadth and depth of
disciplines

in

the humanities, the social sciences, and the natural sciences and

mathematics.

The aim of a program which leads to the Bachelor of Science is to offer
opportunity for liberal education together with a specialization that may have the
potential of application.
There are two patterns for the Bachelor of Arts degree, a pattern of emphasis
upon a broad field and a pattern with a major in one of the academic disciplines.

AMERICAN STUDIES
FACULTY:
(See Interdisciplinary Studies)

PROGRAM
The American Studies baccalaureate program provides the student with a variety of
choices replacing the single-discipline major. There are two categories, the institutional and the
cultural, either of which

may

lead to the B.A. degree or

may be used as an

area of specialization in

Secondary Education.

The institutional option emphasizes the Social Sciences, English and Mass Communicaand History, as well as some Business and Educational Philosophy courses; the cultural
option, besides literature and the fine arts, also features the Social Sciences, History, and some
Education courses. In either option, including the use of American Studies as an area of
specilization in Education, the student is required to take three seminars in American Studies.
The Seminars 09.31 1 and 09.312 are open as electives to students from any other fields.
Sophomore standing is the only prerequisite. The follow-up, numbered 42 1 requires completion of
09.312. Seminars in the field will vary widely in subject matter, which will depend on agreement
of professor and student in each case.

Chemistry are certified by the Department to the national office of the ACS and become
eligible for membership in the society without the usual two-year waiting period.
Students who are interested in chemistry and also in business are urged to
discuss proper course selection with the chemistry faculty. Through a cooperative
program with the Department of Business Administration, it is possible for a student
to complete course and admission prerequisites for the Master of Business Administration degree during the four-year baccalaureate training in chemistry. The M.B.A.
degree can be completed in one year of additional postgraduate study.
Students interested in chemical engineering can earn a baccalaureate degree in
chemistry and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering through a cooperative program
with Pennsylvania State University. Three years at B.S.C. and two years at Penn State
are required for this program.

ENGINEERING AND LIBERAL ARTSCOOPERATIVE PROGRAM
(Dr.

David Superdock-Program Coordinator)

The faculties of Bloomsburg State College and the Colleges of Engineering and
Earth and Mineral Science of The Pennsylvania State University have agreed to
establish a cooperative educational program in liberal arts and engineering. Three years
will be spent by an enrolling student at Bloomsburg State College, where the student will
study liberal arts subjects along with pre-engineering courses in the basic sciences. Upon
and recommendation from that program, the student will
spend two years commencing with the Fall Term at The Pennsylvania State University.
While at Penn State, he/she will complete the engineering course requirements as
specified by that institution. A successful completion of these programs will lead to an
appropriate baccalaureate degree from each institution. This program was created to
satisfactory completion of,

fulfill

the following objectives:
/

.

To provide cooperatively a general education in a

liberal arts institution

as well as technoligical education in a school of engineering for each
student enrolled so that through five years of study a student may
complete what otherwise could require six or more years.
2.

3.

To allow a student who has not yet made a decision between engineering
and other disciplines, an opportunity to examine his/ her appropriate
aptitudes and explore the various areas of study more carefully.
To provide a student with a planned sequence of liberal art courses
which, if completed successfully, would guarantee the the student
acceptance at an engineering school at times when student applications
to such schools

4.

might exceed their capacity.

To allow those qualified students to receive both a liberal and technical
education at relatively low costs and in so doing, provide the Commonwealth and the Nation with more well-educated engineers.

Application for admission to the program will be made to Bloomsburg State
The candidate will be subject to its admission requirements.
A student will indicate the desire to follow the 3-2 program either at the time of

College.

admission to Bloomsburg State College, or early enough in the student's program to
permit him/her to complete all required prerequisite courses. Results from aptitude and
achievement tests, records of scholastic achievement, and other pertinent information
will be exchanged between institutions to aid both in guiding and counseling enrolled
students and prospective students. A list of declared students' admissions profiles will be
prepared by the Bloomsburg State College admissions office each semester and
forwarded to the appropriate office at Penn State to provide some indication of the
number and academic quality of individuals entering the 3-2 program.
Bloomsburg State College may require higher academic standards for its generic
students seeking to transfer. To insure referral of students who will make a significant
contribution to the engineering profession, and to increase the likelihood of their success
within the program, the Bloomsburg faculty has instituted the minimum standard of a
2.75 quality point average (4.00 = A) in all required prerequisite courses. The overall
QPA for transfer is either 2.50 or 3.0 depending on the engineering program.

102

Engineering and Liberal Arts

/

A Pre-Engineering Advisory Committee consisting of representatives from each
department preparing students for study in the 3-2 program, acts as the screening and
recommending committee responsible for upholding the tenets of this articulation
agreement. This committee assists student recruitment and advisement and monitors
any changes proposed in the cooperative agreement, communicating these changes to
the Dean of Arts and Sciences in an advisory role.
The Pennsylvania State University may require a higher grade point average
because of space availability, departmental facilities, or changes in programs. Any
proposed change in the minimum quality point average will be communicated in writing
between institutional representatives as soon as the need for change is identified. All
changes will become effective with those students entering Bloomsburg State College in
the Fall, after Bloomsburg has been notified of the changes.
To initiate the transfer from one institution to the other, the individual student
should request an application from the Admissions Office of the Pennsylvania State
University in September of his/her third year at Bloomsburg. The request should
include a statement that the application is for the 3-2 program. The application should
clearly indicate that the student is applying as a 3-2 student and should be submitted
promptly-no later than November 30th. The completed application should be supported
by the following credentials: final high school record; two copies of the official
Bloomsburg State College transcript including all grades earned through the Spring
Semester of the second year; a schedule of courses for the Fall and Spring of the third
year, and a recommendation from Bloomsburg State College's Pre-Engineering
Advisory Committee that the student should be admitted to the 3-2 program. The
application and supporting credentials will be evaluated by the appropriate officer in the
Admissions Office and the Office of the Dean of the College of Engineering at The
Pennsylania State University. If the applicant meets the minimum requirements, the
applicant will be offered provisional admission to the Pennsylvania State Univerity in
program commencing with the Fall term.
At the end of the Spring semester of the third year, two copies of the final official
transcript of work taken at Bloomsburg should be forwarded to the Admissions Office
at The Pennsylvania State University. The applicant's admission to The Pennsylvania
State University will be changed from a provisional basis to a permanent basis if the
student has maintained the necessary overall average, is in good standing at Bloomsburg
State College, and has fulfilled all conditions, if any, specified in the student's
the 3-2

provisional admission.

The history

satellite course

program

is

an innovative approach

to provide

greater flexibility in the history curriculum, to offer students more choice and better
scheduling opportunities to enroll in history courses. Under the proposal a designated
three semester credit history course can be offered at a reduced credit value or for an
increased one semester credit value equivalent to class time and course content. Two

approaches, "satellite segment course" and "satellite derivation course" are available
for a student to take a fraction or an extension of an existing three credit semester
course. The "satellite segment course" permits a student to enroll in a reduced portion
of a designated course for either one or two credits. The "satellite derivation course"
allows a student to enroll in a specially designed one semester credit course, for an
enrichment or concentrated study of a significant topic or theme from the content of the
three semester credit course. Check the undergraduate schedule of courses for specific
satellite offerings each semester.

Admission to Teacher Education
Students who wish to take teacher education curricula enroll initially in the
School of Professional Studies and schedule courses in harmony with the requirements
of the program they wish to follow. In due course the students apply for admission to
teacher education. Usually, the screening for admission to teacher education takes place
after the student has completed 32 or more semester hours and has taken the Sophomore
Field Experience intended to help the applicant to assess his/her decision. Scholarship

and pertinent personal attributes are weighed in determining admission to teacher
education. These criteria reflect the responsibility of the college whose recommendation
is the basis for the issuing of a teacher's certificate. If students who were initially enrolled
in the

School of Professional Studies are not admitted to teacher education, they are

transferred to the School of Arts and Sciences.

Retention in Teacher Education
Admission to teacher education is equivalent to candidacy for the degree,
Bachelor of Science in Education. Candidacy for this degree is revoked in case of failure
to maintain the required Quality Point Average and may be revoked for other sufficient
reasons. If candidacy is revoked but the student is otherwise eligible to remain in the
College, he/she is transferred to the School of Arts and Sciences. In this case the student
who wishes to be reinstated must reapply for admission to teacher education.

Field Experience
Students in teacher education are required to engage in the Sophomore Field
Experience during which they work in and observe the educational process in the school
of their choice. It is intended that this experience will help the students decide before the
junior year whether they wish to follow careers in teaching. Participants are exposed to
many aspects of teaching and to the operation of the whole school, thus providing
experience that should increase the relevancy of course work in professional education.
Other field experiences in addition to student teaching are participated in as part

Student Teaching
Pre-professional teacher education culminates in student teaching for a semester
in

public or private schools.

Undergraduates who have satisfied the prerequisites for student teaching
courses are assigned to student teaching during the first or second semester of their
senior year. They are placed according to the availability of qualified cooperating
teachers in their subject area and the willingness of schools with programs approved by
the College to cooperate with the College in its teacher education program. Students
should be prepared to accept assignments

in

any of the student teaching centers.

The Student teaching semester is divided into two equal periods; in order to
provide an opportunity for students to teach at two grade levels and frequently in two
socio-economic environments.
Because of constantly changing educational and socio- economic circumstances,

Student Teaching Centers
The College selects its student teaching centers and cooperating teachers in
urban, suburban, and rural areas. Students in elementary education may be assigned to
central Pennsylvania, to suburban Philadelphia, or to certain inner-city locations.
in secondary education may be assigned to teach in central Pennsylvania, in
suburban Philadelphia, or in the cities of Philadelphia and Harrisburg. Business
Education student teaching centers are located in the Bloomsburg, Allentown, and
Williamsport areas. Students in communication disorders and special education are
assigned to the White Haven Center, Selinsgrove Center, and to public schools and other
agencies located in Pennsylvania and nearby states.
It may be possible for students in teacher education programs to be assigned to
do their student teaching in one of the centers abroad with which Bloomsburg
cooperates: Quito, Ecuador; Recife, Brazil; or Liverpool, England. Further information
about this program may be obtained in the Office of International Education.

The curricula

offered at Bloomsburg State College include: medical technology,

radiologic technology,

therapy, pre- physical therapy and pre-cytotechnology. Completion of these programs
involves clinical education and experience - usually away from the college campus. The

College offers degrees for the first four curricula, i.e., B.S. in Medical Technology, B.S.
in Radiologic Technology, A.S. in Health Services, and B.S. in Education for Dental

Medical Technology Curriculum
(Dr.

Donald Rabb, Curriculum Coordinator)

The Medical Technology Program

consists of 98 semester hours of courses

prescribed by the College, followed by one year of clinical study and experience in a
School of Medical Technology approved by the National Accrediting Agency for

Laboratory Science (NAACLS). Bloomsburg State College has formed

the Medical Technology Program. Application for transfer to the

School of Professional Studies and formal admission to Medical Technology may be
made after the student has earned 30 semester hours of credit and before the completion
of 64 semester hours.
Assistance in making application for admission to the clinical year program is
offered by the College, but admission is determined solely by the hospital. Since more
students currently apply for admission to clinical year programs than the Schools of
Medical Technology can accommodate, the College cannot guarantee that all students
will be accepted for the clinical year experience. In general, students with the highest
academic achievement and those who appear in their interview to have a knowledge of
the field are given priority. Most of the schools offering Medical Technology programs
charge a tuition; however, the college does not charge tuition during the clinical year.
Students who successfully complete all of the college requirements and the
clinical year program shall receive the Bachelor of Science degree. All clinical year
graduates will become eligible to take the certification examination for medical
technologists. Upon successfully completing this examination, the student will be
awarded his/her certificate and be entitled to use the designation M.T. (ASCP) after
his/her name.

A student who fails to gain admission to a clinical program at the end of the junior
year

may

return to the College and complete the requirements for a baccalaureate

degree. Ordinarily the student can complete the bachelor of arts curriculum in biology

one additional year; other curricula may require more time. A student may also opt
absence (See Section 4.12) to preserve his/her right to return later.
Students who are on leave, as well as those who continue their studies are eligible to

Radiologic Technology Curriculum
Radiologic technologists are allied health professionals having expertise in the
operation of x-ray equipment and the preparation of patients for various diagnostic
procedures. Recent trends indicate that many clinically educated technologists will

pursue managerial or teaching roles within their disciplines.
In order to meet the varying needs of radiologic technologists, the program offers
the prospective student a means of entering Bloomsburg State College at an advanced
entry level for those already possessing certification as radiologic technologists (RT).
Students are required to select a group of courses comprising either a management core
or an education core.

The required courses are shown below. It is assumed that most advanced level students
will be part-time and, hence, require a longer period to complete their program than two

graduation is 128.
The recommended third year sequence of courses comprises an allied health core
similar to that taken by other allied health majors. Virtually all of the third year

Health Services Associate Curriculum
This degree program is available to health workers who have obtained clinical
education from an accredited health agency and who desire additional education in
communicative and leadership skills while complementing their clinical backgrounds.
Its initiation was encouraged by the fact that many certified health workers are now
being strongly encouraged to continue their education in a collegiate setting. Also, the
role of the health worker has expanded to include greater responsibility in the hospital
and nursing home setting, as well as a more substantial commitment to community
health. Health workers who may wish to enter the program include: medical laboratory
technicians, licensed practical nurses, histologic technicians
i.e.,

those workers

who have satisfactorily completed

and laboratory

assistants,

the equivalent of one year's clinical

education.

The curriculum for the health service associate is shown below. It is assumed that
most students will be taking courses on a part-time basis and hence, require a longer
period of time to complete the program than two years.
Students are eligible to become candidates for the associate degree when they
have satisfactorily completed 22 credits of course work (maintained a 2.0 G.P.A. or
better) and shown proof of satisfactory completion of a clinical program. Awarding of
this associate degree is contingent upon being accepted for candidacy and completion of
the program while maintaining academic good standing. Transfer credits from other
accredited institutions are, of course, accepted, but at least 15 credits must be from
Bloomsburg State College.

GRADUATE STUDIES

Degrees
Graduate study was inaugurated

in

1960 with programs leading

to the

Master

of Education degree planned for teachers in service. In 1968 approval was granted to
offer a program in history to lead to the Master of Arts degree and in 1971 a program
in biology to lead to the Master of Science degree. Additional programs to lead to the

Master of Arts and Master of Science have been established and in 976 the Master of
Business Administration degree was established.
The objective of the programs for the degree. Master of Education, is to improve
subject matter proficiency and develop mature, professional teachers. The objective of
the Master of Arts program is to advance the student's scholarship in an academic
discipline. Programs leading to the Master of Science degree are designed to develop
mature scholarship and competence, especially as they are related to application. The
object of the Master of Business Administration degree is to provide increased
knowledge and skills essential for quality performance in the business professions.
The college pledges itself to a continuous review of the needs for graduate
