Grade Point Average Computation of
GPA is computed by dividing the total numberof quality points accumulated in courses for which a gradeofA-h A, A-, B-h B, B-, C-h C, C-, D-h D, D-, orF has
been assi gned by the total numberof credits attempted in those courses. Courses for which a mari< of P, S, I, NCR or W has been assi gned are not included in
computingtheGPA. Each letter grade hasa numerical value A-h A, A- =4; B-h B, B- =3; C-hC, C- =2; D-h D, D- =1; F =0. Multi plying this value by the

Pro-am Obj ecti ves
The field of African American Studies has been an explicitiy interdisciplinary one from its earl lest formulation atthetum of the twentieth century
byW. E. B. DuBois, CarterG. Woodson, and other scholars. Si nee the 1960s, ithasdevelopedasacoherentfieldof study with well-developed
rriethods, theories, andpedagogy. We belia/e that the African American Studies Department at the University of Maryland, Col lege Park has a
di sb neb ve intellectual and programmatic focus that continues in this tradition and extends it through situating the study of peoples of African
descent at the i ntersecti on of cul tural and hi stori cal studi es and the soci al sci ences.
AASD's current program continues the tradition of employing a social scientific approach to the study of the African American experience that
i nvol ves a concomi tant understand ng of Af ri can A meri cans' publ i c pol i cy needs. The program ref I ects the strengths and di sci pi i nary speci al ti es
of our own faculty in history, political science, public policy, economics, community development, and research methodology and analysis.

TheMajcr
Bioengi neeri ng is a combination of biological engineering (engineering based upon the sci ence of biology) and biomedical engineering
(engineering applied to human health care). It is the application of a systematic, quantitative, and integrative ways to think about and solve
important problems of biological origin. The engineeringpriciples of this field are rooted in the physical, chemical, and mathematical sciences and
used to study bi ol ogi cal systems at al 1 1 evel s of seal e. 1 1 advances fundamental concepts, creates knowl edge from tfie mol ecul ar to the organ and

Civil/Environmental engineering is a peopleserving profession, concerned with the planning, design, construction and operation of large complex
systems such as bui I di ngs and bri dges, water purl f i cati on and di stri buti on systems, hi ghways, rapi d transi t and rai I systems, ports and harbors,
ai rports, tunnel s and underground constructi on, dams, power generati ng systems and structural components of ai rcraft and shi ps. The prof essi on
also includes urban and city planning, prevention and treatment of water and land pollution, and disposal of hazardous wastes and chemicals. The
desi gn and constructi on of these systems are onl y part of the many chal I enges and opportuni ti es f or ci vi I and envi ronmental engi neers today.
Recent advances in computers, communications and data management provide new resources that are widely used by professional civil and
envi ronmental engi neers i n provi di ng safe, economi cal and fundi onal f aci I i ti es to serve our soci ety .
Courses of fered by thi s department may be found under the acronym E N CE .

The mission of the Department is threefold:
1. P rovi de a hi gh qual i ty, chal I engi ng educati on that encompasses breadth and depth; and prepare graduates to be prof i ci ent i n both
analysis and synthesis facets of civi I engi neeri ng design;
2. M ai ntai n a strong research program that i s recogni zed for excel I ence i n maj or areas of ci vi I and envi ronmental engi neeri ng;
3. P rovi de servi ce to the U ni versi ty, the ci vi I engi neeri ng prof essi on, and the communi ty at I arge
The Department provi des an educati onal program of basi c and speci al i zed engi neeri ng knowl edge necessary for its graduates to be prof i ci ent i n
recognized specialties of civil engineering. This preparation provides graduates with the tools needed for successful practice in the period
following graduation. I n addition to general and technical education, the educati onal program stresses professional and ethical responsibilities, an
awareness of soci etal i ssues, and the need for I i f el ong I eami ng.
The Department contri butes to the advancement of knowl edge through research on i mportant engi neeri ng probi ems. The research resul ts are
communicated through recognized channels of knowl edge dissemination.
The Department serves the needs of the community by emphasi zi ng gl obal and soci etal i ssues. The Department addresses these i ssues through
U ni versi ty and prof essi onal channel s and contri butes to thei r sol uti ons.
The Department, bui I di ng upon the above mi ssi on, estabi i shed three program educati onal obj ecti ves:
1. P repare our graduates for competent prof essi onal practi ce wi thi n ci vi I engi neeri ng rel ated i ndustri es of M aryl and and the

The computer engi neeri ng maj or combi nes the strengths of both the Department of E I ectri cal and Computer E ngi neeri ng and the Department of
Computer Sci ence to prepare students for careers i n ttie computer i ndusiry. The program encompasses the study of hardware, software, and
systems questions that arise in the design, da/elopment; and application of computers and embedded systems. Specifically, computer engineering
students will have a knowledge of hardware systems (electrical networks, electronics, andVLSI); a knowledge of software systems (algorithms,
data structures, and operati ng systems) ; and a knowl edge of how these two domai ns i nteract ( di gi tal I ogi c, si gnal and system theory, computer
architectural and performance analysis). Computer Engineering students will I eam about everything that goes into digital and computing systems,
from solidstate physics to CMOS VLSI design, to computer architecture to programming, and from operating systems to compiler and language
theory. Courses offered by this department may be found under the foil owing acronym: ENEE andCMSC.

Computer science is the study of computers and computational systems: theirtheory, design, development and application. Principal areas within
computer science include artificial intelligence, computer systems, database systems, human factors, numerical analysis, programming languages,
software engineering, and theory of computing. A computer scientistisconcemed with problem solving. Problems range from abstract
determinations of what problems can be solved with computers and the complexity of thealgorithms that solve them to practical matters (design

TheB.S. Engineering Program has the foil owing objectives:
• To prepare students who do not wi sh to f ol I ow a prof essi onal career i n a tradi ti onal engi neeri ng f i el d but rather pi an to use the breadth and

• To prepare those students who do not i ntend to pursue a career i n a tradi ti onal engi neeri ng f i el d but rather want to use a more broad
curri cul um i n order to gai n a prof essi onal auxi I i ary or management posi ti on after graduati on.
• The program is designed to givethestudent maximum flexi bill ty to design an academic program which is specific to the students career
goals.

Environmental Science and Policy is a broadly multidisciplinary, undergraduate major, drawing courses and faculty frc>m 20 departments and four Colleges (the Colleges of
Agriculture and Natural Resources; Behavioral and Social Sciences; Chemical and Life Sciences; and Computer, Mathematical, and Physical Sciences).
New ENSP students begin in the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, where they will be guided through a structured, exploratory advising process. ENSP
students are expected to declare a concentration by the end of their third semester in the program and, once they declare their concentration, will move administratively to
the College and department sponsoring the concentration. There, they are advised by a faculty member in their discipline.
The ENSP faculty and staff aspire to provide a strong ENSP identity for the 220+ students enrolled in this major, and we encourage students to take advantage of the

Gemstone is a four-year program with students from many different maj ors and with a vari ety of i nterests. They have a uni que opportunity to
parti ci pate i n a program i nvol vi ng speci al G E M S courses, but most i mportanti y as members of undergraduate i nterdi sci pi i nary research teams.
Under the guidance of faculty mentors, Gemstone students carry out tiieir team research on problems that often, but not exclusively, involve
science and/or technology. However, rather than merely considering these problems from a technical point of view, Gemstone research projects
take into consideration hi story, ethics, politics, sociology, psychology and business among other perspectives. Thus, we are eager to have students
fromall maj ors at the university participate in these many faceted projects. Some of the topics that current Gemstone teams are working on
i ncl ude the heal th of M aryl and's weti ands, use of puppets to add a ki nestiieti c factor to readi ng comprehensi on to hel p young chi I dren wi th

Geology is the science of the Earth. I n its broadest sense, geology concerns itself with planetary formation and subsequent modification, with
emph^is on the study of planet Earth. Geologists study Earth's internal and surficial structure and materials, the chemical and physical processes

Geol ogi sts are empI oyed by govemmental , i ndustri al , and academi c organi zati ons. Geol ogi sts work i n expl orati on for new mi neral and
hydrocarbon resources, as consul tants on engi neeri ng and envi ronmental proj ects, as teachers and researchers i n uni versi ti es, and i n many other
challenging positions. For many, the attraction of a career in geology is the ability to divide time between work in the field, the laboratory, and the
office. Although the employment outiook within geology varies with the global economic climate the long-range outiook is good. This is because
our dwi ndl i ng energy, mi neral , and water resources, al ong wi th i ncreasi ng concerns about natural hazards and envi ronmental i ssues, present new

The study of politics is both an ancient discipline and a modem social science The origin of the discipline can be traced back to the earl lest times
when philosophers, statesmen, and citizens studied the nature of govemment; justice responsibility, and the consequences of political action.
M ore recenti y, the study of pol i ti cs has al so emphasi zed sci end f i c anal ysi s and methods of observati ons about pol i ti cs. Today, the di sci pi i ne
reflects a broad effort to collect data about politics and governments utilizing relatively new techniques developed by all of the social sciences.
TheDepartmentof Govemment and Politics combines philosophical and scientific concerns in its overall program as well as in specific courses.
Itemphasizes such broad areas as political development, policy analysis, social justice political economy, conflict, and human rights. These
broad conceptual areas are integral components of study in the discipline. The areas are commonly referred to as American government and
politics; comparative govemment; political theory; international relations; public administration; public law; public pol icy and political behavior.

This course sequence acquai nts the student wi th the pri mary basi c sci ence background i n the speech, I anguage and heari ng sci ences, and permi ts
the student to select two courses in the specific professional areas of speech, language or hearing, based on the students primary interest area.
This minor is designed for the student in other majors (such as Psychology, Education, Linguistics, FOLA, etc.) who may have plans to attend
graduate school in the fields of Speech-Language Pathology or Audiology. These courses are widely viewed as pre requisite for admission to such
programs and consti tute a proporti on ( but not tiie f ul I extent) of d asswork requi red for eventual post M . A . or post-A u. D . certi f i cati on by the
American Speech-LanguageHearing Association (ASHA) as either a Speech- Language Pathologist or A udidogist. Because both graduate
programs and ASHA may requi re additional coursework, the student pursuing the HESP minor is strongly encouraged to meet with a HESP
academic advisor to ensure that a/entual educational goals are properly addressed. The HESP mi nor does not qualify an individual to work

Work on I anguage has provi ded one of the mai n research probes i n phi I osophy and psychol ogy for most of the 20th century. 1 1 has taken on a new
momentum i n the I ast 30 years and I anguage research has proven to be a f rui tf ul means to cast I i ght on the nature of the human mi nd and on
general cogni ti ve capaci ty . Sa/eral courses focus on a research program whi ch takes as a central questi on: H ow do chi I dren master thei r nati ve
I anguage? C hi I dren hear many styl es of speech, vari abl e pronunci ati ons, and i ncompi ete expressi ons, but; despi te thi s f I ux of experi ence, they
come to speak and understand speech effortlessly, instantaneously, and subconsciously. Research aims to discover how this happens, how a
person's linguistic capacity is represented in the mind, and what the genetic basis for it is. Students learn how various kinds of data can be brought
to bear on thei r central questi on and how that questi on i nf I uences the shape of techni cal anal yses.
The major in Linguistics is designed for students who are primarily interested in human language per se, or in describing particular languages in a
systemati c and psychol ogi cal I y pi ausi bl e way, or i n usi ng I anguage as a tool to reveal some aspect of human mental capaci ti es. Such a maj or
provides useful preparation for professional programs in foreign languages, I anguage teaching, communication, psychology, speech pathology, and

Thel^lajcr
The goal of marketing is to satisfy all the stakeholders of the firm-employees, dealers, stockholders, and customers-by seeing that quality goods
and servi ces are da/e! oped and provi ded at f ai r pri ces and i n a way that benef i ts the communi ty and soci ety. Worl d-cl ass competi ti on has forced
busi nesses to devel op marked ng programs that are as good as the best Thi s means getd ng cl oser to the customer, j oi ni ng other organi zati ons to
create val ue for the consumer, and desi gni ng i ntegrated di stri buti on and communi cati on programs that provi de a seami ess f I ow from producers to
consumers. P ri ci ng, communi cati on/promoti on, produd/servi ce and di stri buti on acti vi ti es i nherent i n the da/el opment of marked ng programs are

AREAS OF STUDY
Within the Department of M athematics there are a number of identifiable areas which students can pursue to suit their own goals and interests.
They are briefly described below. Note that they do overlap and that students need not confine theniselves to one of them.
1. PuremathematicsThecoursesthatdeariy bdongtothisareaare: MATH 402, 403, 404, 405, 406, 410, 411, 414 430, 432, 436, 437, 445,
446, 452, 456, and STAT 410, 420. Students prepa-i ng for graduate school i n mathemati cs shoul d i ncl ude M ATH 403, 405, 410 and 411 (or 412)
intiieir programs. MATH 463 (or 660) and MATH 432 (or 730) are also desirable. Other courses from the above list and graduate courses are also
appropriate.
Z Seoondary teaching I n addition to the courses required by the Secondary Education Track, the following courses are particularly suited for
students preparing to teach: MATH 401, MATH 406, MATH 445, aid MATH 475.
EDHD 413, EDHD 426, EDPL 301, EDCI 463, EDCI 455, EDCI 355, EDCI 457, EDCI 450, EDCI 451, and EDCI 474 a^e requi red f or
certification. Before registering for EDCI 455, EDCI 355, EDCI 450, EDCI 451,orEDCI 474, students must apply for aid be admitted to the
College of Education's Secondary Education Program. For more information, seethe Col lege of Education website:
www. educati on. umd. edu/studenti nf o.
3. Statistics: ForastudentwithaBachelor'sdegreeseeking work requiring somestatistical background, the minimal program is STAT 400-401.
To work primarily as a statistician, one should combine STAT 400-401 with STAT 430 and at I east one more statistics course, most suitably,
STAT 440. A stronger sequence i s STAT 410, 420, 430. Thi s offers a better understand ng and wi der knowl edge of stati sti cs and i s a general
purpose program (i .e, does not specify one area of appi ication). For operations research AM SC 477 should be added. For economics
appi i cati ons, M ATH 424, STAT 400, 401, 430, 440, aid A M SC 477 shoul d be consi dered. To prepa-e for graduate wori<, STAT 410 aid 420
gi ve the best background, wi th STAT 405, 430, 440 added at some I ater stage.
4> Cornputational mathariatics: Therearea number of rnath courses which emphasizethecomputational aspects of mathematics including the
useof the computer. They a-eAMSC 460, 466, MATH 431, 450, 456, 475 and STAT 430. Students interested in this a-ea should take the CM SC
supporti ng sequence as soon as possi bl e.
5. Applied mathematics: The courses which lead most rapidly to applications are the courses listed above in 3 and 4 and MATH 401, 412, 414,
431, 436, 462, 463, and 464. A student interested in appi led mathematics should obtain, in addition to a sol id training in mathematics, a good
knowl edge of at least one area in which mathematics is currently being applied. Concentration in this area is good preparation for employment in
government and i ndustry or for graduate study i n appi i ed mathemati cs.
Reqiiremaits for the Minor
The Department of M athemati cs offers M i nors i n the f ol I owi ng areas:

Gemstone is a four-year program with students from many different majors and with a variety of interests. They have a unique opportunity to
parti ci pate i n a program i nvol vi ng speci al G E M S courses, but most i mportanti y as members of undergraduate i nterdi sci pi i nary research teams.
Under the guidance of faculty mentors, Gemstone students carry out tiieir team research on problems that often, but not exclusively, involve
sci ence and/or technology. However, rather than merely considering these problems from a technical point of view, Gemstone research projects
take i nto consi derati on hi story,
ethi cs, pol i ti cs, soci ol ogy, psychol ogy and busi ness among other perspecti ves. Thus, we are eager to have students from al I maj ors at the
university participate in these many faceted projects. Some of the topics that current Gemstone teams are working on include the health of

computation, science wri ting/journal ism, patent I aw, military/industrial leadership, technical sales, and public policy.
The Physical Sciences Program consists of a basic set of courses in physics, chemistry and mathematics, followed by a variety of courses chosen
from these and re! ated di sci pi i nes: astronomy, geol ogy, meteorol ogy, computer sci ence, and the engi neeri ng di sci pi i nes. E mphasi s i s pi aced on a
broad program as contrasted with a specialized one.
Students are advised by members of the Physical Sciences Committee. This committee is composed of faculty members from each of the
representeddisciplines. The selection of a primary advisor depends upon the interest of the students. Usually the student will chooseto work with
one of the commi ttee members representi ng the di sci pi i ne the student has se! ected as the pri mary area of concentrati on to sati sf y the di stri buti ve
