Indiana, the County and the
Town
Indiana County was formed by act of the state
legislature in 1803 and was fully organized in
1806. George Clymer of Philadelphia, a signer of
the Deelaradon of Independence, owned more
than diree diousand acres in die area and
presented 250 acres to the new county for a
county seat. The town of Indiana was officially
founded in 1816.
The comity's first major industry was the
nianufactiue of salt, which began in 1813 about
two miles above die town of Saltsburg. As early
as 1797 bituminous coal was dug fi-om exposed
outcroppings. Mining soon rivaled agriculture as
the backbone of die county's economy. Its
influence gradually diminished, diougli, and
today lUP is the county's largest employer.
Indiana County now thrives with an economic
base combining educadon, agriculture, energy
production, and commerce into an outstanding
quality of life for its nearly 90,000 residents.
Indiana has become known as the birthplace of
film star, Jimmy Stewart, and as the Christmas
Tree Capital of the World. Visitors and locals
alike can relive Indiana County's past by visidng
one of its parks, covered bridges, fairs, and even
the largest Amish setdement in Western
Pennsylvania. As one of nine counties
represented in America's Industrial Heritage
Project, Indiana County has a number of
historical sites diat are part of the project's Path
of Progress. The project's archives are housed in

institution of higher educaUon and wishes to
transfer to lUP must submit an apphcation vvith
the $30 application fee, official transcripts of all
postsecondary educational work, and an official
high school transcript.
All admissions decisions are made on a rolling
basis by the Admissions Committee. Under a
rolhng admissions policy, applications are
reviewed as they become complete. Decisions
can range from automatic acceptance, to request
for additional infonnadon, to other alternadves.
Transfer applicadons (twelve or more
postsecondary, college credits attempted) are
reviewed on tlie basis of college coursework
completed. Transfers are required to have at least
a cumuladve 2.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale (C average)
from all schools previously attended for
admission to most programs. The teacher
certificaUon program requires a minimum 2.5

course to the student's major at lUP. However,
only credits transfer, not grade-point average. It
has been the pohcy of the universit)- diat only

in Pennsylvania. No matter how many credits are
transferable, die student must satisfy all of the

(1) university requirements, (2) college
requirements, and (3) deparmient requirements.
University requirements: Since all students are
obliged to fulfill a basic program in Liberal
Studies consisting of 53-58 semester credit hours

evaluator and the college deans will look to this
area first for appUcable credits for transfer. Most

Title IV Satisfactory Academic
Progress Policy
In order to recei\e Title IV Federal Student
Assistance, students must maintain satisfactory
academic progress in their course of study.
Students must be in compliance with both the
university's Academic Standards Policy and the
Financial Aid Sufficient Progress Policy in order
to demonstrate satisfactory progress.
The Tide IV Federal Student Assistance
programs include the Federal Pell Grant, Federal
Supplemental EducaUonal Opportunity Grant,
Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work Study
Program, Federal Stafford Loan, and Federal
PLUS Loan.
A student who meets die standard of academic
good standing of the Academic Standards Policy
but who does not meet the standard of sufficient
quantitative progress may continue in university
registration but without financial aid eligibility
for the federal Tide IV aid programs.
A fiiU statement of requirements for Satisfactory
Academic Progress for Tide IV Federal Student
Assistance is available through the Financial Aid
Office.
Title IV Financial Aid Sufficient
Progress Policy
The Financial Aid .Sufficient Progress Policy
applies to undergraduate students enrolled in the
university.
A. Sufficient Progress: To be in good standing
on a sufficient progress basis, a student must
have earned at least 75 percent of the cumulative
number of attempted semester hours at lUP and
complete his/her degree without exceeding 133
percent of die semester hours required for
completion.
"Attempted semester hours" is die number of
semester hours for which a student is enrolled at
the end of the Drop/ Add period.
Each student wiU be measured for sufficient
progress annually after fall grade processing.
This evaluation will determine if the student has
a sufficient percentage of semester hours earned
in order to be eligible for Tide IV fiinding for the
next financial aid award year (Fall tenn through
the following Summer tenn).
Students will be notified of their financial aid
suspension status when a completed Free
Application for Feder-al Student Aid (FAFSA) is
on file in the Financial Aid Office.
B. Financial Aid Suspension: If a student
does not meet the sufficient percent of progress
evaluadon after two consecudve annual reviews,
then all Tide IV aid for that student will be
suspended beginning widi the next financial aid
award year (Fall tenn through the following
Summer term).
A student who is in this financial aid suspension
status, however, will also be reviewed at the end
of die spring semester and summer terms in
order to evaluate whether or not the percent of
progress has been met through additional
coursework. If this improvement to 75 percent of
progress is achieved, then the student's Tide IV
financial aid suspension will be rescinded
beginning with the next term of enrollment.

percent of progress measure. (Note: The
"*" is an administrative symbol indieaUng
that a grade was not submitted by the
instnictor at the time of grade processing.)

responsible for paying a per-credit lee at the
current tuition rate for each credit beyond
eighteen.
Schedule Changes (Drop/Add)
The universir\' registration system, Lhiiversit)'
Records and Scheduling Assistant (URS.A) on
the Web, is characterized as one of continuous
registration. From die student's initial
registration time for a given semester through die
end of the drop/add period, a few days into die
semester (except for specified restricted times), a
student may modify his/lier schedule to die
extent that classes arc available or permission to
register for a closed or restricted section has been
granted and entered into the computer system.
Deadlines for tlie opportunity to drop or add
sections can be found in the academic calendar
at die website wunc. iup.edu/registrar. Each
student is responsible for making appropriate
computer transactions to ensure schedule
accuracy. Note particularly that, while the
department may enter permission to register for a
section, the student must complete the actual
registration transaction on URSA.
Advanced Placement and
Credit/Exemption Examinations
Courses taken by students prior to college
admission under die Advanced Placement
Program of die College Entrance E.xamination
Board may be recognized by die award of college
credit or by exemption from required subjects.
Those who earn a grade of 3, 4, or 5 in die
Advanced Placement Examination will be
granted credit toward die number of credit hours
required for graduation.
For students who have had other unusual
oppormnities for instruction or have advanced in
a given field, an opportunit)- to gain credit and/or
exemption fi-om a course is afforded dirougli
examinations. University Testing Senices in die
Career Senices Office (302 Pratt Hall) offers
credit options dirough the College Level
Examination Program (CLEP).

Prior Learning/Portfolio Assessment
Prior Learning Assessment Programs
lUP oners several mctliuds lor earning iiiii%ersily credit for college-level
learning gained through work and life experience. Through the Otiice of
Career Ser\ices, the College Level Examination Program (CLEP) offers
standardized examinations in general and specific subjects. In addition,
departmeiual examinations are also available in specific areas on a limited
basis.
Where examinations are not available, portfolio assessment may provide die
student with die opportunity lo present e\ideiice of learning for evaluation
by a university faculty member. Through portfolio assessment, work and life
experiences arc evaluated to determine dieir appropriateness and
applicability for university' credit. Credits earned dirough prior learning
assessment may not be applied toward university residency requirements for
awarding of degrees. In addition, no more diaii one-half of die semester
hours required for a student's major may be earned by CLEP, departmental
examination, and portfolio assessment. Contact the School of Continuing
KdiicaUoii for informauon regarding portfolio assessment.
Policy on Portfolio Assessment
IL'P has aulhorizcd a policy for assessment of prior learning that took place
outside traditional classrooms in a procedure known as Portfolio
Assessment. It is particularly designed for adults \vith extensive
documentable knowledge from work experience, travel, independent study,
or other onl-of-class experiences.
Portfolio Assessment: Principles
1 . Credit aw ai ded dirough portfolio evaluation must confonii to specific
course tides listed in this catalog. Credit awards for general broad areas
(block credit) will not be pennitted.
2. In order lo request a portfolio assessment, die student must be currendy
enrolled at I UP. Credit a%varded must be intended for use as part of a
degree or certification program.
3. Each department will determine the maximum number of semester
hours to be awarded for prior learning for its major. In no case vN-ill more
diaii one-half of the major be earned through CLEP. challenge
examinaUons. and other forms of prior learning assessment.
4. Semester hours earned through portfolio assessment mav not appK as
residency credit for die purpose of awarding degrees.
5. Semester hours earned dirough portfoUo assessment mav be awarded
only as regular course credit.
Ii. II a related examinalioii is available dirongli CLEP or ifa clulicngc
cxaminalion liaa previously been esiabli.shed for die cour»e, a portfolio
assesHinciit of tlionc semester hours will nol lie aocplcd.
7. Acceptance of portfolio asscsMiient credits by die department will l>c
indicated by die signature of the (haiqicrsoii of the dcparlnienl KlTcnng
the course. The dean of die appropriate II 'P (ullege and the dean of llie
School of Continuing ICdiicatioii miiit al«o imiicale approval.

!). The title of the course, the semester hours, and the indit-ation that credit
was larneil through Portfolio AssessmenI will be recorded on the
hrr.rr u,..u\.
Portfolio Evaluation: Procedures
1 . Student meets widi die assistant dean for Oedil Programs in die School
of Continuing Education lo determine die feasibility ofcaniing Kmcslcr
hours dirough piirtfiilio evaluation. .Standard oudines of related coursct
are |>rovided lo student.
2. Preliminary .Application Form - Student must provide a resume and
answer die following questions:
a. What have you learned dial relates lo diis course?
b. Where and when have you learned it?
c. What documentation do you have that suppiru the claim?
.'i. A handbook lo assist students in compiling a portfolio will be printed. Ii
will show how to relate to the written portfolio learning gained througli
work experience, independent study, and other experiences. Evidence <if
learning through documentation of experience, completion of a project,
and written examination will he explained. If then- is sntTn urir dniLoid.
a workshop will be conducted to assist students.
•1. Fees:
Application Fee per A.ssessnienl: $ I. '5.00
.Assessment Fee: one-half die current rate of tuition per credit for each
credit requested: lo be paid when portfolio is submitted for e\'aluation.
5. The applicaUon will be submitted to the assistant dean for Credit
Programs. Upon approval, die cliairperson of die department olTering
tlie course will be requested to suggest die name of a faculty member to
die dean of the college for approval.
(). The faculty member will meet with the student to determine the
technique of assessment or a combination of tecliniques to be used,
incluchng interviews, docmnentatiun, observation of performance,
examination, etc.
7, After the portfolio has been prepared by the student, it will be submitted
to die dean of die School of Continuing EducaUon for review, then
forwarded to die appointed faculty member for assessment
8. The facult)' member will e\'aluate the portfolio, then make a
recommendation for or against the award of credit and die amount of
credit in die fonii of a letter. « liicli must be ap))roved and countersigned
by the chairperson of the department offering die course. The portfolio
will be forwarded to the dean of die college wliich oversees the student's
curricidum to approve and verify dial the course will be accepted as part
of die students program. Finally, die portfolio is sent to die assistant
dean of the School of Continuing HxlucaUon. who will iiouf)' the student
and the registrar.
f). The registrar will list the course ude. credit, and an indicadon that
credit Wiis earned through Portfolio .Assessment.
Advisory Program
A group of selected faculty members act as freshman advisors for entering
freshmen in dieir deparuiients. In some curricula the advisors continue with
die same group of advisees fVom year to year. In other curricula the freshman
advisors remain widi their advisee groups only for the students' frrst year,
under diis program, the smdent is dien assigned an academic advisor for the
remaining years dirough to his/her degree in a chosen field.
Faculty ad\isors counsel die students on academic achievement dropping
courses, changing curriculimi. student acdWdes. study schedules, and
personal problems.
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2001-02
26 ACADEMIC POLICIES
Change of Major
Undergraduate Course Attendance Policy
The university expects all students to attend class.
Individual faculty members may define attendance standards appropriate to
each course and tlie consequences of not meeting those standards, within die
following g"uidelines:
For sltidenls changing majors into the College of Education and
Educational Tecliiiologf or into the Eherly College of Business and
Information lechnology, special policies apply. Phase refer to the
individual college sections in this catalogfor change of major policies
pertaining to specific colleges and majors.
To qualify for change of major, a student must be in academic good standing
(2.00 GPA) and must meet any odier requirements specific to die major.
Criminology majors and all teacher certificadon programs have requirements
beyond a 2.00 GPA.
A student must apply for a change of major in the office of the dean of die
college in which die student is registered if the curriculum change desired is
from one department to another within the same college (for example,
change from a matheniadcs major to a biology major) or in the office of the
dean of the college to which the student wishes to transfer if the curriculum
cliange is from one college to anodier (for example, secondary education
major to biolog)' major). In eitlier case, die student will complete an
appticadon form that is available in die dean's office. Before seeking a change
of major, it is advisable diat die student consult with the departmental
chairpersons of bodi the "old" and "new" majors.
When a student changes colleges, the dean (or dean's agent) of the college
into which the transfer is sought will evaluate the student's credits before
approving die transfer. A copy of the evaluadon will be made available to the
student and his/her new advisor if a change of major is effected.
In cases involving students who are veterans, the dean of the college into
which transfer is sought (or dean's agent) shall give the veteran a statement of
prospecUve approval and the effective date of the proposed changes. This
statement shall also indicate die amount of extended training Unie the change
of major will entail and the amount of credit loss, if any. The veteran shall
take this statement to die veteran's counselor at least one niondi prior to the
effecdve date of the change. No transfer of curriculum shall be made by
veterans undl V.A. approval has been assured.
Sophomore Screening for Junior Status Approval
General policy at lUP permits each college to deteniiine its own scheme for
evaluadng the development and progress of its major students. However,
each college is expected to employ some effecdve procedure for such
evaluadon.
Several of the colleges use a procedure called "Sophomore Screening for
Junior Status Approval" with the following required: All students (in such a
college) enrolled in their fourdi semester or who will complete 57 semester
hours attempted by die end of the current semester must apply for junior
Status approval by filling out an apphcation fonii by the deadline date
designated and announced.
All students should check widi their faculty advisors to determine which
colleges use die "Junior Status" screening procedure and the criteria for
Junior Status Approval.
University Policy on Semester Course Syllabi
Each faculty member shall prepare and distribute, without charge, to each
student widiiii one week of die first meeUng of die class a semester course
syllabus. The syllabus will be consistent with course content and catalog
descripdon, which was approved by the Curriculum Committee of the
University Senate for the inidal course offering or revision.
The semester course syllabus is a vehicle of communication to promote
student academic planning and to avoid misunderstandings of course plan
and requirements.
It is recommended that each syllabus include:
a. the facult)' member's name, office locadon, telephone number, and office
hours
b. an outline of the course content, objectives, and prerequisites, as
appropriate
c. informaUon about the required textbook(s) widi tide, author, and
edidon, and any other required materials
d. information on the detemiinadon of grades, including the weight, types,
and scheduling of evaluauons, other planned requirements, and
expectation for class pardcipaUon
e. statement of policies and/or penalries for make-up exams and late
submission of assignments
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2001-02
1. Each policy must be distributed in writing during the first week of the
course. Normally, it is expected that the infoniiation dealing widi class
attendance standards will be distributed with the Semester Course
Syllabus.
2. Each policy must recognize students' need to miss class because of
illness or personal emergency.
3. Each policy must define some limited level of allowable absence,
normally at least a number of clock hours equal to course semester
hours.
Anticipated Class Absence for University
Representation and Participation
The university community recognizes the values of student participation in
cocurricular and extracurricular activities of the university. lUP has fostered
this pardcipaUon with an informal policy of good faith accommodadon to
meet overlapping demands of the curricular and extracurricular
commitments.
The underlying spirit of good faith accommodation ultimately is set in the
faculty member's unabridged right to determine die terms of variance, if any,
from the established course syllabus— tests, quizzes, due dates for papers or
other assignments, projects, presentations, and all other course operadons.
In seeking variance, the student must take the initiadve to make all
arrangements including validation of participadon as needed. The student
should generally assinne that papers and such assignments should be
completed and submitted before the andcipated class absence. Alternate
arrangements for tests, quizzes, labs, or class pardcipation acdvity (panels,
simulations, presentations) should be sought sufficiendy in advance to peniiit
faculty/student agreement on the plan for completion, whether the actual
completion is rescheduled to be prior to or subsequent to the anticipated
absence.
Inclement Weather Policy
Indiana University of Pennsylvania is committed to the safety and security of
its students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Because of this commitment, the
decision whether the university should close or remain open during periods
of adverse weather condidons is based on the overall concern for the
imiversity community. In general, however, lUP's pracdce will be to remain
open and to conduct classes and business as usual during periods of
inclement weather.
Closure of the University: Should adverse weadier condidons arise or be
anticipated diat would make it inadvisable to operate die university on a
given day, the president may, at his discretion, close the institudon (i.e.,
cancel all classes and on-campus acd\ities at all campuses). In die event of
either a fiill- or pardal-day closure, notificadon will be provided to die
following radio and television stadons: WDAD Radio (Indiana), WCCS
Radio (Homer City), WJAC-TV (Johnstown). KDKA-TV and KDKA
Radio- 1 020 AM (Pittsburgh), and WTAE-TV and WTAE Radio- 1 2.50 AM
(Pittsburgh).
Cancellation of lUP-Sponsored Activities or Events in the Absence of
University Closure: Should adverse weather conditions arise or be
andcipated diat would make it inadvisable to conduct an lUP-sponsored
acdvity or event on a date when the university otherwise remains open, the
sponsoring unit/department has the option to cancel or postpone the
fimction. The sponsoring unit/dejiartment also assumes responsibility for
notifying event participants of the cancellation/postponement in an
appropriate and dmely manner.

Determining GPA
Cumulative Grade Point .\verage (CGP.\) is determined by multiplying the
semester hours for a course by the quality points received for diat course.
Then, die total number of .semester quality points for all courses is divided
by the total number of semester hours attempted.
Prior to FiUI, WOO. grade-point averages were determined by calculating to

Quality points are not counted on credits from odicr schools, and a student
transferring from another school is held responsible for quality points only
on work taken at this university.
Institutional Credits are associated with remedial courses which arc
numbered below 100. Credits from institutional credit courses do not apply
to degree requirements for graduation but are used in determining
enrollment status (hill or part time), including flnancial aid and atlilctic
(NCAA) cligibilitv.
Midterm Grade Report Policy
To help niidcrgraduatc studeiiLs monitor their academic performance, faculty
members « ill provide a warning to students with unsatisfactor)' performance
at midterm. Using the university's accepted grade reporting technology,
faculty memhers will assign a midterm grade of "D" (danger or potential
failure) or "F" (failure). Each semester the Registrar will establish and
announce the dates for the window widiin which midtcnn grades may be
posted by faculty memhers and read by students and advisors. The midterm
grade is an advisory grade and is not a permanent part ofa students
academic liistory. It will not be used to determine enrollment status,
dismissal, or eligibility for financial aid. housing, or athletics.
Audit Policy
-All audited courses will be identified as such on tJie student's grade report
and transcript. Work taken on an audit basis will not be graded and will not
count tovrard tlie fulfillment of requirements for a degree to be awarded by
lUP. Since semester hours attempted and quality points will not be awarded
for audited courses, diey will not affect the student's grade-point average in
any way. .-Vuditors will pay normal tuition and such other fees as may be
required for die course.
To audit an undergraduate course, a person must be admitted to the
university and have met course prerequisites. Students wishing to audit a
course for which diey registered should obtain a Course .\udit Form from
die ofTice of the department ofTering die course. Students must first register
for die course before filing a course audit form. .\11 audit processing,
including revocation of previously requested audit classification, must be
completed during die regular drop/add period. Copies of die completed
form are reninied to die Registrar's Offrcc. to die department chairperson,
and to the student, .\udit students have the same privileges as other students
in all coursework. There is no limit on die number of courses which may be
auditctl.
Pass-Fail Policy
The purpose of pass-fail is to peniiit a student to take an electi\e course in a
field of personal interest where he/she may be compering with major
students in the department in wliicli die course is ofTered. When scheduled,
such a course shall be included in die student's normal course load for the
.\ student may take courses on a pass-fail basis to a total of 1 5 semester hours
diroughout his/her university career. The student is limited to one pass-&il
course in any given semester during the sophomore, jimior, and senior years.
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG. 2001-02
28 ACADEMIC POLICIES
All courses iti tlic student's Liberal Studies program and courses required to
meet major and minor requirements are excluded from tliis prerogative.
The student must declare his/her intent to choose pass-fail in a specific
course no later dian sLx weeks after the beginning of the semester or the
equivalent timespan in a summer session. Once declared, this pass-fall option
may not be revoked. Instructors will not be notified of the identity of pass-fail
students in dieir courses. The grade given by die instructor will be translated
to a 'T" or "F" during the processing of grades.
A student shall be given academic credit without quality points for a course
taken pass-fail upon receiving a passing mark in the course. The semester
hours successfiiUy completed under pass-fail ("'passed"), within the overall
15-semester-hour limitation, shall be recorded as counting towards the total
semester hours earned for graduaUon but not towards the semester-hours-
attempted data used in calculation of the cumulative grade-point average.
However, if a student fails a pass-fail course, he/she will receive the "F" grade
and the corresponding grade-point average. An "F" earned under the pass-
fail opdon may be repeated only under die graded opdon to provide the
quality points to correspond to the "hours attempted" incurred with the "F."
The summer sessions, coUecdvely or in any combination, shall be considered
a unit similar to a spring or fall semester for pass-fail purposes. Hence, a
student is permitted to take only one course during the summer on a pass-fail
basis.
Exceptions: Currendy, diere are two courses which are exceptions to the
Pass-Fail Course Policy. EDUC 389 and NMDT434 are only offered on a
pass-fail basis.
/ (Incomplete) Policy
The designation of I is used to record work which, so far as covered, is of
passing grade but is incomplete because of personal illness or other
unavoidable reasons. Changes of grade to convert designadons of 1 must be
received in die Office of die Registrar no later than the last day of regular
classes preceding the final exam period in the next regular (fall/spring)
semester after die I designation was assigned. The dean of the college in
which die course is offered may approve an extension, provided the faculty
member concurs. A faculty member assigning an I designation must
complete a form indicadng die work to be completed, deadlines for
completion (it is not necessary to allow the maximum allowable time), arid
guidelines to estabhsh the final grade. Copies of the completed form will be
sent to the department chairperson, to the dean of the college in which the
course is taught, and to the student receiving the I designadon. To monitor 1
designadons, the registrar shall submit to each faculty member routine
semester reports of outstanding 1 designadons.
L (Late Grade, Continuing Course) Policy
The designation of L (Late grade, continuing course) is appropriate for cases
in which student work is expected to extend beyond a given
semester/session. The designadon of L is not to be confiised with a
designadon of I, which is only^ appropriate for individual students unable to
complete dieir course work because of unexpected illness or personal
emergency. L designadons are appropriate for:
a. Intemsliips, pracdcums, field experience courses, workshops, and
independent studies that, by design, extend beyond the normal end of
the grading period.
b. Others as approved by the department chairperson and the dean of the
college in which the course is taught. If a specific course is alwavs
eligible for L designadons, the dean may grant standing approval for L
designations every time the course is offered.
Faculty wanting to use the L option for eligible courses must notify die
registrar two weeks prior to the end of classes so that the grades can be pre-
entered. L designations which are not preceded may be given only widi the
permission of the department chairperson and the dean of die college in
which the designation is awarded.
Instructors will convert L designations to letter grades at the end of the
course. Unless an extension is obtained fi-om the dean of the college in which
the course was taught, an L designation unresolved at the end of one year
will be converted to an F.
To monitor L designations, the registrar shall submit to each faculty member
routine semester reports of aU outstanding L designations avrarded by diat
faculty member. The purpose of diese reports is to help inform faculty as
they help students complete their coursework.
Grade Change Policy
Once earned grades have been recorded, they may be changed only in die
case of clerical and/or calculation error or in die event of a successftil grade
appeal. It is not appropriate to change a grade based upon options, such as
supplemental assignments, that are not equally available to all students. The
deadline for corrections of clerical and/or calculation errors is the end of the
next regular (fall/spring) semester after the grade has been awarded.
Course Repeat Policy
A student may not normally repeat an academic course. Exceptions to this
policy are:
1 . Repeatable courses: Certain courses are efigible for repeat for credit
and grade. These courses are advanced art studio courses, music
ensembles, special topics courses (281, 481) if the topic is different, and
other specifically designated courses.
2. D and F grades:
a. Repeat with replacement: Undergraduate students are pennitted to
replace die grades and quafity points for courses in which they
receive a D or F grade by repeating that course at lUP and fiUng a
repeat fonii with the Registrar's Office. Only six repeat-with-
replacement attempts are pennitted during a student's entire
undergraduate career. In calculating GPA, the new grade and
quality points earned will replace the old. However, die transcript
continues to document all academic work, and repeated courses are
not deleted from the visual record.
b. Repeat with averaging: In addition to the six repeat-with-
replacement options, undergraduate students my repeat other
courses in which they receive a D or F grade. In these other repeat
attempts, the new grade is averaged with, instead of replacing, the
prior D or F grade: die credit for die D rejjeat counts only once.
The transcript continues to indicate all repeated courses.
c. Course transfers: Students seeking to replace or average D and F
grades must repeat these courses at lUP. If an lUP course in which
a student received an F is repeated at another institution, the credit
\vill transfer to lUP, but die original F will continue to count toward
die lUP GPA. If an lUP course in which a student received a D is
repeated at anodier university, neither the grade nor the credit will
transfer.
3. Other grades: Courses in which students earned a grade of A, B, C, or
P may be repeated only on an audit basis. New grades will not be
assigned and additional credit will not be awarded.
This policy also applies to transfer credit. Students receiving transfer credit
for an lUP course may not repeat diat course at lUP. Similarly, students who
have already earned a passing grade in an lUP course may not subsequendy
receive transfer credit for that same course.
Cancelled Semester Policy
The Cancelled Semester Policy permits students returning after significant
separation from die university to delete from die Cumidative Grade-Point
Average (CGPA) calculation die results of one particularly unfortunate
semester. A student who has not been enrolled in four consecutive semesters
and the intervening summer sessions may apply upon appfication for
readmission or within one year of readmission for the appfication of this
policy to any single semester completed before readmission. Wliile
readmission may be based on the application for cancelled semester, the
transcript record will reflect this only after die student is enrolled and
attending. (For cancellation purposes, a semester is defined as any semester
of enrollment, whedier fiill or part time, with sessions in a single summer
together constituting one semester.) All grades — passing, failing,
withdrawals— in that semester must be cancelled fi'om the CGPA. There is
no abridgment of the transcript: the courses and grades remain visible on the
official transcript. Credit toward graduation remains for those credits
associated with passing grades. A student may never cancel more than one
semester from his/her CGP.\ under this poHc\'.
Fresh Start Policy
A student who has been academically dismissed and separated fi'om die
university for a minimum of five consecutive calendar years may apply for
readmission. Having reviewed the prior and intervening factors for evidence
of potential for improved academic success, die college dean or designee may

lUP Student Grade Appeal Policy
Grade Review Policy
If a student disagrees with the evaluation of his/her work by the instnictor
but has no basis for a charge of ''discrimination" or "capricious evaluation"
or "error," the student should discuss die matter direcdy with the instructor,
and if unsatisfied, with die department chairperson, and if still unsatisfied,
with the dean of die college in which the course was offered. In such cases,
the decision of the instructor shall be final.
If a student believes that an improper grade has been assigned, an appeal
may be filed on die following grounds:
1. Discrimination: On the basis of race, religion, national origin, sex, age,
ancestry, handicapped status, affectional or Ufestyle preference, or
political affiliation.
2. Capricious Evaluation: Significant and unwarranted deviation from
grading procedures and course oudines set at die beginning of the
course (ordinarily in a written statement during die first week of the
course) or grade assigned arbitrarily on die basis of whim or impulse.
The student may not claim capriciousness if he or she disagrees with die
subjective professional evaluation of die instructor.
3. Error: Demonstrable, objective determination that a madiematical or
clerical error resulted in die entry of an incorrect grade.
Procedures of Appeal
Level I: Informal Resolution
Eveiy elTort should be made to resolve the disagreement at Level 1. The
student must first seek a resolution to the disagreement with the instructor
either in person or in writing. If the student is not satisfied widi die results,
the student must then speak with die chairperson of the department that
offers the course. If still unsatisfied, the student must discuss the matter witli
the dean of the college in which the course is offered. A Student Congress
member may accompany and advise the student during the Level 1
procedures. Only after all attempts for resolution at Level I have been
exhausted may the student initiate Level II.
Level II: Appeal Screening
A. Composition: Each year there shall be appointed a Grade Appeals
Committee to determine the existence of the substantive basis for
appeal. The committee will be composed of seven voting members:
three faciJty members appointed by APSCUF, three members elected
by and from die Senate Academic Committee (one facidty, one
adininistrator, one student), and one student appointed by the Student
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2001-02
Congress. A quorum consists of a majority of the committee. To take
action, a majority of diose present must be faculty members. If a quonim
of the Level II committee is not available to meet within die designated
time limits, the Provost's Office will seek additional members from the
appointing bodies. If diese bodies are unable to respond in a timely
manner, the Provost's Office may select additional members from die
appropriate grou])s.
B. Procedure to Initiate Appeal: To initiate Level II of the appeal, the
student must file an appeal form widi the Provost's Office. This form
must be filed within sixty (60) calendar days of the beginning of the
semester immediately following die semester in which die grade was
received. The Provost's Office may extend the sixty-day limit only in
unusual circumstances when equity deinands it and when the student's
own procrastination or misunderstanding did not substantially
contribute to die delay. (Note: Grade appeals will not generally be
processed during the summer. Therefore, the appeal of any grade
received in the spring or summer sessions noniially will be processed in
the fall. A review will be scheduled in die summer only when the
student's academic eligibility is jeopardized by the grade in question or
when the student is a graduating senior.) The Provost's Office will
notify the appropriate dean, department chairperson, faculty member,
and the Student Congress president of the student's initiation of die
Level II process.
C. Procedure to Process Appeal: The student will be expected to submit
written documentation of his/her complaint, and die faculty member
will be expected to submit in writing the course grading procedure and
any other pertinent information. Appeals based on discrimination will
be reviewed according to current standards of nondiscriminatory action.
Appeals based on capriciousness will be reviewed in light of the faculty
member's announced evaluation and grading system. The committee
will review the materials to deny or confirm appeal continuance. Denial
of appeal continuance must be by a negative vote of four members of the
committee. This committee vrill inform the Provost's Office of its
findings. Within five (5) class days of the receipt of the committee's
report, the provost or designee will notify the student and the faculty
member of the findings. If the basis for appeal is determined to be
substantive, the provost or designee will schedule a Grade Review Panel
within fifteen (15) class days to be convened prior to the conclusion of
the semester.
Level III: Appeal Review
A. Composition: The Grade Review Panel will consist of five voting
members: one academic dean or associate dean and four faculty
members. The Student Congress E.\ecutive Committee designee may
advise as requested by the student. The affirmative action officer will
advise in appeals based on discrimination. The panel will be constituted
from the Grade Review Pool by random selection. The panel
chaiqjerson wall be elected by and from the panel before each review.
B. Membership: The Grade Review Pool will be established in the spring
term to serve for die following academic year. Using random selection
methods, the pool and rotational order within the pool will be
established by die Provost's Office. A pool of diree deans or associate
deans and twelve ftill-time facidty members will be maintained. In
establishing the membership for each review paiiel, prior to each review
the names of those designated as primary nieinbers of the specific panel
and available as alternates will be supplied to all parties involved. A
panel member may request (to the provost or designee) disqualification
due to a conflict of interest. The student and the faculty member may
efiminate names in proportion to the composition of die panel. Each
may eliminate only one dean/associate dean and four faculty. The
instructor and the student will be supplied a list of all primary and
secondary pool members. The opportunity to disqualify panel members
will take place only once. Resulting vacancies will be filled from the
appropriate pool of alternates so that the panel will be composed of one
dean/associate dean and four faculty. If through self-disqualification and
challenges a panel cannot be constituted from the pool, then the Office
of the Provost will supplement the pool using appropriate random
selection inethods.
C. Procedure:
1. Bodi the student and the instructor will have the right to appear
before the panel, present witnesses, and offer evidence. In addition
to those specified in Level III, Section A, each may also bring one
observer, with whom he or she may consult but who may not
participate in the review.

Academic Integrity Policy and Procedures
irP IS an acadeinu i oininumtN williin tlie so( lety at large. All rnemhcrK
widiin this community are expected to accept tlic rcsjK>n»ibilily for acailennc
integrity and honesty. Academic dislioriesty seriously erodes the <|iialily ol
educational pursuits and is unacceptable at IL'P. The following |H>li(ic» and
procedures have been established to preserve the academic integrity of the
university community, while also providing a process thai pmin is iIk- riglit*
III students who allegedly violate dicse policies.
Policy
.A. 'lypcs of Viulatiomi. Violations of academic integrity include, but are
not limited to, the following:
1 . Providing or receiving unauthorized assistance in tourscworfc. with
lab work, theses, dissertations, or during examinations (including
qualifying and comprehensive exams) or quizzes.
2. Using iiiiaudiorize<I materials or devices, such as crib notes, during
examinations or quizzes.
3. Plagiarizing papers, theses, disserutions, essays, reports, speeches
and oral presentations, take-home examinations, computer projeclj,
or other academic exercises by misrepresenting or passing olTtiie
ideas, words, formulas, or data of anodicr as one's own. Plagiarism
is dishonest and illegal. Writers are indebted to audiors from whom
they borrow exact words, ideas, theories, opinions, statisucs.
illustrative material, or facts (beyond common knowledge). Writers
are also indebted if thry summanzf or paraphrase in th/ir oum
words material from sources. .All quoted material requires the
acknowledgement of the source by the use of quotation marks or
indentation (if exact wording is iiicor|)orated). In addition, both
direcdy quoted and summarized material must be acknowledged by-
use of a note or parenthetical citadon that indicates die author
and/or date of publication and page number or numbers. If the
writer indents a quotation, it must be clearly set olf from the body
of the text and must be documented in die aforesaid manner. To
verify- the various documentadon procedures, writers should
consult the style sheet in the particular discipline for which they are
preparing the assignment (ML.A. .AP.A. Chicago, BC, etc.).
4. Using the same paper or work more dian once without
authorization of the faculty- member(s) to whom die work is being
submitted.
5. Possessing course cxaminadon materials before the administration
of die exam, widiout the prior knowledge or consent of the
instructor.
6. Inteiuionally e\-ading lUP academic policies and procedures: for
example, improperly processing course w-ithdrawals, grade changes,
or odier academic procedures.
7. Falsifying informaUon, including falsificadon/fabrication of research
data and/or stadsdcal analyses, forging signatures on \-arious forms
and documents, or altering or adding answers on academic
exercises or exams after work has been graded.
8. Computer dishonesty, including: tampering with or making
unaudiorized change to another person's or die university's
computer system, illegally copying computer softw-are, personal use
of another individual's computer accoiuit. unaudiorized activity
invoK-ing another individual's personal computer system or any
system belonging to die university, and other unauthorized use or
violauons involving computer use.
9. Noncompliance: failure to follow dirough w-idi sanction(s) imposed
as a result of an academic \-iolaUoii.
The university- reserves the right to discipline any student for any acuon that
an ordinary, reasonable, intelligent college student knows or should know-
might lead to the issuance of discipline. Tliis means the university maintains
die right to issue discipline for reasonable cause.
Charges of academic integrity- Wolauons may be brouglit by faculty memlwrs
or administrators. Students w-lio observe or become aw-are of a \-ioladon of
academic integrity- by another student are strongly encouraged to report it to
a university official. -A faculty niember/admiiiistiator who bebeves that a
student has violated an academic poUcy- may elect to resolve the matter by
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG. 2001-02
32 ACADEMIC POLICIES
Iiilornuil Resolution, by Documented Agieeineiit, or by Foniial
Adjudication. Sanction(s) may not he imposed upon a student believed to have
violated an academic policy without following one of these three procedures.
If charges are brought, tlie accused student(s) shall have a fair and reasonable
opporliuiity to answer, explain, and defend against the charges. The
university shall have the burden of proof in all cases. Hearsay should not be
used as die sole evidence to establish any fact necessary to establish guilt or
innocence.
Procedures
.\. Kaculty/adniinistrators must use one of the following options to resolve
ailegetl violations of academic integrity.
1 . Option I: Informal Resolution. The faculty member/
administrator and student may meet informally, normally within
seven class days of the observation or discovery of tlie incident, and
agree to resolve the issue without submitting any formal
documentation. If die violation pertains to work being judged by a
committee (examples might include dissertations and
comprehensive examinations, both oral and written), the meeting
must involve a majority of die committee and the resolution must
be agreed to by a majority of the committee. It is in the interest of
bodi die faculty member/administrator and student to complete a
statement that simimarizes the incident, conference, and agreed-
upon resolution. This factual statement should be signed by bodi
parties and copies provided to the student and the faculty
nieniber/administrator. If agreement cannot be reached, or at die
discretion of the faculty member/administrator, a more formal
process as outlined in tliis policy may be initiated.
2. Option II: Resolution by Documented Agreement
a. The faculty member/administrator may schedule a conference
with die student in an attempt to agree on die facts of die case
and to reach a mutually agreeable resolution. This meeting
must nonnally be scheduled/requested within seven class days
of the observation or discovery of die alleged violation or of the
failure of resolution by Option I. If an agreement is reached,
die faculty member/administrator must complete a
Documented Agreement Form oudining die agreement and
have it signed by both parties: faculty member/administrator
and student. If die \'iolation pertains to work such as a diesis
or comprehensive examination beingjudged by a committee,
the meeting must involve a majority of the committee and the
Documented Agreement Fonii must be agreed to and signed
by a majority of the committee. Copies are distributed to the
student, the facidty meniber(s)/administrator filing the
agreement, and the department chair, who must also

closed unless die student has a prior academic violation(s) on
record. By signing off on the agreement, the student waives the
right to appeal the sanctions agreed upon in the conference. If
die student fails to fulfill the written agreement, die faculty
member/administrator may file an academic integrity referral
against the student for noncomphance.
c. If a prior academic integrity violation(s) for die student is on

member/administrator should pursue fomial adjudication if:
—he/she cannot reach or chooses not to attempt a mutually
agreeable resolution with the student regarding the facts of die case
or sanctions to be imposed,
—he/she believes that die violation is so severe that it warrants a
sanction of expulsion, suspension, involuntary withdrawal from

be signed by a majority of the committee. The form will
contain a description of die alleged violation, including the
time, date, and place of occurrence, and the recommended
sanction(s) if the student is found to have violated this policy.
b. The department chair will forward a copy of the academic
integrity referral to the student, normally within seven class
days of receiving notification of the allegation, and contact the
student to schedule a hearing to review the facts surrounding
the allegation and recommended sanctions if the student is
determined to have committed a violation.
c. The hearing should be scheduled so as to allow die student a
reasonable time to prepare a defense (normally within seven
class days of being notified of the allegation by the department

K. .Sanctions
1 . The following sancdons may be agreed upon by the student and
faculty member/administrator dirough informal resolution or
documented agreement. All grade reductions require die approval

a. Single Grade Reducdon: Reducdon of grade or failure on
project, cxaminadon. quiz, or odier academic exercise on
which the student is alleged to hive cheated.
b. Course Grade Reduction: Reduction of course grade or failure
in the course. If die \iolarion involves a project spanning
multiple courses (such as a dissertation or multiple semester
internship), the grade reduction may apply to all courses
involved.
c. Constructive or Educational Task: .A task which requires the
student to examine his/her dishonest behavior and which may
benefit die student, campus, or community.
d. Other: Sanctions deemed appropriate and tailored to a specific
\ioIatiofi as determined by the faculty member/administrator.
Aiiv reasonable sanction or combination of sanctions for a
given \iolation may be agreed upon by the student and faculty
member/administrator.
2. In addition to die above, the following sanctions might be imposed
through foniial adjudication.
a. Letter of Warning: .A warning letter may be issued indicating

INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2001-02
34 ACADEMIC POLICIES
c. Involuntar)' witlicirawal from part ol lUP's acatlemic or other
programs: A student may be denied tlie right to participate in
some segment of lUP's programs. Such involuntar)' withdrawal
might be imj)osed on either a temporary or permanent basis.
d. Suspension: A student may be suspended from the university'
for a specified period of time, not to be less than the remainder
of the current semester. Suspension requires that a student
remove Iiim/herself from university premises, not attend classes
or social activities, and not be present on university or Student
Cooperative .Association propert)' during die period of
suspension.
e. Expulsion: Expulsion may be considered under any of the
following circumstances: when there is a very serious violation
of the academic integrity policy, when a student is proven to
have violated the academic integrity policy on more than one
occasion, or when a student appears before the board after
already having been suspended. Expulsion from the institution
is permanent. Appeals to the sanction of expulsion must be
submitted to the Office of the President. If necessar)'. the
president will consult with legal counsel in tliese cases.
Suspension and expulsion can be recommended by a faculty
member/administrator, department chair, and AIB but can be
imposed only by die president's designee for suspension and
expulsion (currendy the vice president for Student Affairs),
who is responsible for verifying that due process was followed.
F. Records and Recordkeeping
1 . Records of Infomial Resolution. Although no ofFicial Ibnns are
filed at this level of resolution, it is strongly recommended that a
facult\' member/administrator and student who reach an informal
agreement put the agreement in wriung with a copy to each
participant. This protects each party in the event of any future
attempt at renegotiadon.
2. Records of Resolution by Documented Agreement. Documented
agreement resolutions are recorded on the computer database of
disciplinary files maintained by die assistant to the vice president
for Student Affairs. They are not considered formal disciplinary
records undl and unless the student is found in violation of diis
policy a second dme. They are internal university records used for
monitoring students for multiple violations only. If a second
documented agreement form is filed or a student is found in
violation of the policy through formal adjudication, the student will
then have a formal disciplinar)' record which includes records of
both violations. This formal record is maintained according to the
lUP judicial system recordkeeping policies.
3. Records of Formal Adjudication. Records of academic integrity
cases resolved through formal adjudication are recorded on the
computer database of disciplinary files maintained by the Office of
the Assistant to the Vice President of Student Affairs. They are
maintained as formal disciplinary records in accordance with lUP
judicial system recordkeeping policies. Records of cases involving
suspension or expulsion must be maintained for a minimum of two
years.
G. Operational Notes
1. In cases where a violation is alleged at or near the end of the
semester and resoluUon by informal resoludon. documented
agreement, or formal adjudication cannot be completed before
grades are submitted, the faculty member should submit a
designation of "Incomplete" (I) for die student. The "1"
designation will remain on the student's record until the case has
been resolved. Once the case has been resolved, die "F" designation
will be replaced with the appropriate grade.
2. If the violation is alleged during the semester when classes are in
session, the accused student should continue attending all classes
and continue to complete course requirements during the
resolution of die academic integrity case.
3. The provost/designee may extend any deadline which cannot be
met for what he/she deems legitimate reason.
4. Requests to consutute die AIB for hearings will be cfirected to the
provost/designee (currendy the assistant to die vice president for
Student Affairs).
5. The university may withhold transcripts, grades, diplomas, or other
official records pending the disposidon of cases, if such acdon is
reasonably necessary to preserve its ability to enforce its nJes.
ti. The provost/designee may niodit)' die procedural provisions of
diese rules by the issuance of written orders to deal with jiarticular
unusual procedural situadons, so long as no order shall contradict
the Riles of die Board of Governors of die State System of Higher
Education governing due process for students, and no such rule
shall deny fiindamental fairness to students by, for example,
effecuvely constitudng a denial of nodce or opportunit)' to be
heard.
7. This policy will be reviewed by the Senate Academic Committee
after five years.
The various forms described in this policy are available fi-om the assistant to
the vice president for Student Affairs, 2 ISA Sutton Hall, deans' offices, or
department chairs. Quesdons concerning the Academic Integrity Policy and
Procedures can be directed to the assistant to the vice president for Student
Affairs, 2I5A Sutton Hall.
Approved by Council of Trustees— May 15, 1998
Final Examination Policies
The final examination week is part of die regular academic program and
must be incoiporated into each instructor's course plan for the semester.
Final examinadons are not the only legitimate type of terminating activity,
and therefore, the instructor may choose an appropriate activity that
conforms to course objectives.
The terminating activity shall take place only at the time and location
assigned by the Scheduling Center. Unless granted an excused absence, die
faculty member responsible for the course must be present for the full
examination period to direct die terminating activity. Faculty members may
require student attendance at the terminating activity.
Faculty members who do not schedule or do not attend the terminating
activity for a course may be subject to disciplinary action commensurate with
unexcused absences. Block finals must be held as scheduled. Once die final
examination has been set by the Scheduling Center, changes and absences
must be approved by the instructor's dean.
During the examination period, die following general rules apply where
conflicts exist:
1. The higher-numbered course takes precedence. Thus, a student
enroUed in GEOG 102 and ECON 32.5 would take the ECON 325
exam at the assigned time and the make-up in GEOG 102.
2. If courses in conflict are the same level and number, an alphabetical
determination by fiill name of the department will be made. For
example, a student enrolled in .4CCT 421 and CNSV 421 would take
the ACCT 421 exam at the assigned time and a make-up in CNSV 421.
Maximum Number oi Exams on One Day/Conflicts
A student may not be required to take more than three final exams on any
one regularly scheduled examination day. For any exam over three, a make-
up exam must be scheduled by the instructor for the student, at his or her
request, into another mutually agreeable regular final examination period.
The rales determining conflict resolution (listed above) will determine which
exam or exams a student may request as make-ups.
Night Exam Policy
.411 tests, examinations, and quizzes should normally be administered during
the prescribed course hours. Only in this wav can the essential contracted
nature of the time arrangements between student and professor be preserved
and, at the same time, proper provisions made for the many extracurricular
and personal activities involving students and faculty alike. Deviations to
allow night exams for valid educational reasons, widiin the guidelines listed
below, must be approved by the department and the dean.
Guidelines
1 . Night exams can only be scheduled on Monday through Thursday
evenings within the 6:00-10:00 p.m. time period.
2. Appropriate physical facilities must be arranged in advance without
encroachment upon odier authorized university fimctions.
3. If night exams are to be given, die day of die week on which they will be
given must be listed in the undergraduate course schedule.
4. No night exam can take precedence over a regularly scheduled class.
5. Arrangements for nonpunitive make-up exams at a mutually agreeable
time must be available for students that cannot attend the night exam.

Class Disruptions
Siudeiits and faculty alike should strive to create a class environment that
icllects mutual respect and die importance of learning. If a student's behavior
threatens to disrupt that environment, the faculty member has a
responsibility to seek resolution of the problem.
.\ facult) member is empowered to rei|nest that a student lea\e during
particular class period if. in the measured opinion of that faculty menibei, the
student:
1 . Significaiidy disrupts the learning process, or
2. Is a threat to others.
II the student refiises to leave or if tlie faculty member deems it appropriate,
law enforcement officers may be called to remove tlie student.
lithe behavior is especially egregious or potentially hannliil, the faculty
member may, with t)ie consent of his/her academic dean and in consultation
with the department chairperson, keep die student from returning to class
until the case can be adjuclicaled. Because significant disruptive class
behavior is a potential violation of tlie .\cademic hitegrity Policy, the
procedures oudined in diat policy should be used to resolve the case. When
■ippropriate, criminal charges should also be filed.
If deemed appropriate, die adjudicators may render a decision diat removes
the oUcnding student from the class or the university-. If so, die university will
assign, in lieu of a grade, a designation dial indicates a wididrawal. If grades
are due before a final decision has been reached, die instnictor should assign
a temporaiy designation of I (incomplete).
If the student is allowed to return, the student will have die option of
reentering another open section of die course if feasible. When appropriate,
the student should be allowed a reasonable opportunity to make up any work
missed during the forced absence.
If a student's grade is adversely aifected by a capricious forced absence, die
student may file a grade appeal.

36 REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION
<^N.
Requirements for Graduation
Undergraduate students at lUP may pursue programs of study in any one of
tlie seven undergraduate colleges: the Eberly College of Business and
Information Technology, the College of Education and Educational
Technology, the College of Fine Arts, the College of Health and Human
Services, the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, the College of
Natural Sciences and Matliematics, or the School of Continuing Education.
A student may earn the degree of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science,
Bachelor of Fine Arts, or the Bachelor of Science in Education. The Eberly
College of Business and hiformation Technology, the College of Natural
Sciences and Madiematics, and the School of Continuing Education offer
Associate of Arts degree programs. To meet graduation requirements in a
baccalaureate or an associate degree program, die student must satisty all of
the degree requirements, which fall into three categories:
1 . university requirements
2. college requirements
3. department requirements
Requirements of die latter two categories may be found under the college
and the department in which the student is pursuing a program of study.
University requirements for graduation in all curricula consist of Liberal
Studies requirements, residency requirements in regard to awarding of
degrees, and the semester-hour and cumulative grade-point average
requirements.
Exception: Students who enrolled in a degree program prior to June 1,
1989, are not subject to Liberal Studies recjuirements; they will comjilete
degree requirements including the General Education components oudined
in earher edidons of the Undergraduate Catalog. Transfer students entering
the university between June 1, 1989, and June 1, 1991, were assigned eidier
to General Educadon or Liberal Studies at the time their transcripts were
evaluated. All transfer students admitted after June 1, 1991, are subject to the
Liberal Studies requirements.
A student may earn a second undergraduate baccalaureate degree by
completing a minimum of diirty additional semester hours. (See Second
Baccalaureate Degree.) It is not possible to receive two or more baccalaureate
degrees simultaneously. However, a student may complete one or more
secondary majors while earning the priman- degree.
Academic Life During tlie Freshman Year
During the Summer Orientation, as described in die section on orientation,
students meet with faculty advisors to plan a program of courses for their
first year. This carefiil planning considers students' individual preferences,
the results of placement testing, and degree program requirements.
With a typical freshman academic schedule, students progress both in the
universitywide Liberal Studies program and in their intended majors.
Three Liberal Studies courses are designed especially for freshmen, and all
students are expected to complete these courses during their first year. The
three are ENGL 101 College Writing, HIST 195 History: The Modern Era,
and one course from a list of Fine Arts selections.
College Writing enhances skills in written expression that are essential to
success at the university. History: The Modern Era builds critical thinking
skills and provides a foundation of knowledge for subsequent courses.
Whichever fine arts course is chosen encourages an appreciative
participation in campus ciJtural life.
Professors teaching these courses work cooperatively with each odier and
widi Student Affairs Division staff to integrate class work with campus
lectures and arts events. Study skills development and tutoring services are
also proxided as necessary.
Semester Hour and Cumulative Grade-Point
Average Requirement ^^
Each student must complete a minimum of 124 semester hours to graduate,
including 53 semester hours in Liberal Studies (all on a passing basis) and
must have a 2.0 ("C" grade) cumulative GPA and a 2.0 ("C") GPA in his/lier

Prereiiiiisite: 73 or more semester hours earned
This course helps students undersund and handle complex intellct lual and
social issues from multiple perspectives. A selccdon of topics is available
each semester and summer session. Students should schedule die course
during die senior year, or at least no earlier tlian die last half of die junior
year. In order to broaden dieir experiences, students are encouraged Ui enroll
in syndiesis sections taught by instructors outside of tlie studciils' major
fields.
Writing Across the Curriculum:
Minimum of Two "W" Courses
All students must include among die total courses required for graduauon a
minimum of two designated writing-intensive courses. One of these courses
must be in die student's primary major; the other(s) may be in Liberal
Studies, college or major reijuirements. or free clectives. Such courses, which
involve extensive use of writing as part of tlie learning experience, are
identified with a "W" as part of die section number in each semester's
schedule of classes listing on URSA.
Eligibility and Application for Graduation
(.oiiimcrRi-im-iil ccri-moMics arc m .\lav at UP at tlu- com lusion ot the
spring semester and in December at tlie conclusion of the fall semester. Only
students who have completed all requirements for graduation by the end of
die semester are eligible to participate in the commencement exercises.
Students who have withdrawn from courses or have elected to take
incompletes or have failed courses during the semester and thus have not
met the rec|uirements for graduation may not participate in commencement
exercises until tliosc requirements have been fulfilled. Students completing
requirements in .August and December are included in die program list for
die December ceremony.
Students are responsible for knowing and fiilfilhng die requirements for
graduation in their degree program. It is the student's responsibility to
complete a form to apply for graduation and submit it to the office of the
dean of his/her college early in die term prior to graduation.
Certification for graduation is not final until approved by the dean of the
college in wliicli die student is enrolled. Diplomas will not be issued until all
bills and obligations have been satisfied, including the degree fee. and final
certification for graduation has been issued by the student's college dean.
Pre-Approval for Transfer Course work
Students enrolled at UP who wish to take courseworii at another insutuuon
(eidier during die summer or regular semesters) must complete an
.Application for Coursework Outside UP prior to taking the course(s). Only
the credits from die course(s) transfer, not die grade; therefore, students
camiot use outside coursework for HP's repeat policy. Only the credits for
\\-hich students receive die grade of .A, B. or C w-ill transfer. If P,T is the only
grading option available, there must be a narrative evaluation from the facidty
member certifying that die work was of C level or better. No more than 60
semester hours total may be earned at a junior or community college for
appUcation toward an lUP degree. If the courses are being taken within the
student's last diirrv crechts. the courses must be taken at lUP unless the
INDIANA UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG, 2001-02
40 REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION
stuilciii's TisidciiiA reijiiiremeiit for awarding of degrees is waived by the
college dean. Cmirses without prior approval are taken at the risk of tlie
student: tliere is no obligation on the part of any oflicer of diis university to
accept or transfer such credit.
Forms for approval of oir-cam])us coursework are available in the OfHce of
Transfer Credit Evaluation/Admissions Office. Full direcdons on the form
outline the steps involving die transfer evaluation, student's advisor, and
college dean, or designee. After completing otf-campus coursework, students
should have die institution at which the work was taken send a final official
transcript direcdy to Transfer Evaluation Services, 216 Pratt Drive, lUP,
Indiana. PA l.')705. Copies of transcripts issued to or hand carried by
students will not be accepted.
Residency Requirement for Awarding of Degrees
All students receiving an initial lUP baccalaureate degiee are required to
complete 45 semester hours in lUP courses. At least 15 semester hours in
lUP courses are required to fulfill an lUP major and a minimum of 6
semester hours for a minor. Normally, the student will complete the final 30
semester hours in residence in lUP courses, unless specific approval has
been secured from the dean of the student's college. Exception to the above
requirements for courses to be earned in residence at lUP may be granted by
the college deans based upon the appropriateness and academic integrity ol
the courses in question. This approval is generally sought as part ot die
process for prior approval of oflT-campus coursework.
Non-Native Students: Englisfi Language
Requirements
Non-native students of English, either internadonal students or diose from
the U.S. for whom English is not their first learned language, are required to
take an ESL Screening/Placement Test prior to registradon in the first
semester attending lUP. The test is administered prior to registration in both
the fall and spring semesters. Results of this test are used to detemiine for
which English course (ENGL 100/ESL, ENGL 101/ESL, ENGL 202/ESL,
ENGL 121/ESL) a newly admitted non-native student must register. In
addition, any currendy enrolled non-naUve student can take the regularly
scheduled test to determine registradon for non-ESL Enghsh courses. For
fiirther information, contact Chair, English Department, 724-357-226 1 .
Program Changes
To insure dicir quality and relevance, academic programs at lUP are subject
to review and change by duly appointed and responsible university groups.
Because of diis, the university recognizes diat provisions must be made to
prevent hardship to students already enrolled in programs if changes later
occur in specific or general program requirements. Students affected by
changes in programs, poUcies. and regulations are dierefore given die option
of following those requirements that are in effect when the student was first
enrolled in die program or those in eHect at the time of expected graduation.
The student cannot, of course, combine chosen elements of the two. Should
a question of rule interpretation arise with respect to changes, die student,
the student's advisor, or bodi should petition the college dean for a decision
about which requirements apply.
Timely Completion of Degree Requirements
The mininiimi total semester-hour requirement for a baccalaureate degree at
lUP is 124. Students who enroll in degree programs that require more than
124, or who seek the added benefit of a double major, minor, or specialized
program, or who change majors should plan their sequence of courses
carefully with an advisor. Such students should be alert to die possibility that
they may need to carry a heavier-than-average class load in order to complete
the degree in eight semesters. In some situations, summer work or an extra
semester may be necessary. The need to enroll in remedial or other
preparatory coursework or to repeat courses may also affect progress toward
a degree.
Undergraduate Catalog Applicability Time Frame
The university reserves the right to modify degree reciuiremeuts through
established governance channels. However, the general policy has been
established diat the following time frame regulations form the basis for
application of the university's undergraduate degree recjuirements:
1. A student who has been in continuous registration (fall and spring
semesters) or who has interruption(s) of less than two calendar years is
governed by the requirements oudined in the catalog in effect at the time
of entrance into a degree program (major).
a. A student who changes major will be governed by the requirements
of the major and/or college at die time of acceptance into the new
major, widiout change of Liberal Studies requirements except as
specified by die new major.
b. A student entering through the nondegree program is governed by
the requirements in effect at die time degree candidacy is awarded.
c. A part-time student may be covered by these provisions of
continuous registration to a maximum often years.
2. A student whose education is interrupted by two or more calendar years
will be governed by die requirements in elTect at the time of readmission
to the university. The readmission may carry specific
requirements/substitutions necessary to provide for program integrity.
3. The applicabihty of coursework completed more than ten years prior to
the degree date is subject to review by the dean or designee for
evaluation on a course-by-course basis.

Reserve Officers' Training Corps
The Unites States .\rmy established a Senior Reserve Officers' Training
Corps program at the universit)- in 1950. The ROTC program teaches
leadership training that students can apply throughout their careers, be they
in business, industry, technology, educadon, the physical sciences, or die
humaniues. All Mihtary Science credits count toward graduadon, and
students who complete the total program can earn a commission as a second
Ueutenant and receive placement in one of twenty-four professional officer
specialdes in die U.S. .\rmy, including Military Intelligence, Military Pohce,
Signal, Medical Service, and die Corps of Engineers.
The ROTC program is divided into two phases: the Basic Course (freshman
and sophomore years) and the Advanced Course (junior and senior years).
In most cases, students progress through the ROTC program bv enrolling in
MLSC 101 and 102 as freshmen. By taking MLSC 101 and 102, the student
fvilfills the university's 3-semester-hour Liberal Studies requirement in
Healdi and Wellness. Students who condnue in the Basic Course by
enrolling in MLSC 203 and 204 as sophomores incur no military obligation,
but they retain the opportunitj' to compete for a frill-tuidon ROTC
scholarship. Whether they win an ROTC scholarship or not, all students
who complete the Basic Course are eligible to enroll in the ROTC Advanced
Course. All Advanced Course students receive financial assistance while they
are enrolled in the Advanced Course.
What ROTC Offers
• ROTC offers a comprehensive academic program in military leadership
and teaches practical skills such as self-defense, adventure training,
rappelling. marksmanship, orienteering, and first-aid techniques.
• Regular ROTC classes for two semesters satisfy die mandatory Health
and Wellness Liberal Studies requirement for graduation.
• Ecjuipment. ROTC textbooks, and unifonns are issued, without cost, to
enrolled students.
• Students enrolled in the Basic Course (MLSC 101, 102, 203, and 204)
become eligible for fiiU-tuition scholarships and enrollment in the
ROTC .Advanced Course.
• Students formally enrolled in the Advanced Course (MLSC 305, 306,
407, and 408) receive a cash stipend ($250-400 each month) for ten
niondis during die academic year and receive $600 each year for books.
• Students who complete die Advanced Course and graduate from die
university receive commissions as second lieutenants and serve in one of
three Army components: Active Army, National Guard, or Army
Reserve.
ROTC Basic Course
The first two years of Mihtar\- Science (MLSC 101. 102, 203, and 204)
provide a background of the historical role of military forces as well as
current national mihtary objectives. In addition, students develop basic
leadership skills in problem solving and decision making and learn survival
techniques, map reading, self-defense, rappeUing, and marksmanship.
Graduates of the Basic Course incur no commitment to enroll in the ROTC
Advanced Course and incur no obligation for military service. Students may
enroll or withdraw from any of die four courses in die ROTC Basic Course
under the same provisions and in die same manner as other academic
courses at lUP. Veterans of U. S. Armed Forces, Junior ROTC and Civil Air
Patrol graduates, and students who complete die ROTC Basic Camp at Fort
Knox, Kentucky, may receive exemption from die ROTC Basic Course if
approved by the Professor of Military Science, but diey will not automatically
receive academic credit for the course.

members of the ROTC battalion leadership. Once Advanced Course

time, and accept a commission as an officer, diey become eligible to receive a
montlily cash stipend of $250-$400 for ten months of die academic year and

End Notes
In all cases where advisor action is required, departments may choose to use
a committee or other departmentally approved process. In cases where
someone otlier than the academic advisor supplies recommendations, die
department needs to place a copy of its policy and procedures on file with
die associate dean for Teacher Education, College of EducaUon and
Educational Technology.
Some departments have additional Junior' Standing requirements in place.
DeparUncnts may conUnue to apply diose requirements but need to keep a
current copy of diese rec|uirements on file with the associate dean for
Teacher Education, College of Education and Educational Technology.
The policy becomes effecuve with those students applying for admission to
teacher cerdficadoii after January, 2001. However, any student admitted to
teacher educadon after October 7, 2000, but before August, 2001, must have
a cumulative GPA of 2.6 in 2001-02, 2.8 in 2002-03, and 3.0 in 2003-04
and must meet all of die odier Chapter 354 requirements. Candidates

Federal Higher Education Act Title II
The Federal Higher Education Act Title II rei-|uires all institutions diat
educate teachers to publish annually the passing rates on PRAXIS tests for
their Program Completers. The annual report for lUP can be found at the
following website: htfp://wurw.coe.iup.edu/tUleii.
Student Teaching
Student teaching is designed to be die culminadng learning experience for
prospecdve teachers. Student teachers practice teaching and managing a
classroom under the supervision of a fiill-dme master teacher in an off-
campus center. A university supervisor is assigned to work widi individual
student teachers and cooperadng teachers. To gain admission to student
teaching, applicants must have achieved a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.6.
In addiuon, students must complete all requirements of the 3-Step Process
and should complete all other components of the Liberal Studies and
professional core before student teaching. Some programs have standards
above the minimum 2.6 cumuladve GPA and/or course grade expectadons
above the minimum grade of C. Each student should counsel widi his/her
advisor for information about specific program requirements related to
qualificadon for student teaching.
Student teaching is the capstone experience in the program of the emerging
professional educator. Student teaching assignments are the responsibility of
the university. To avoid conflicts of interest, students wall normally not be
assigned to districts fi-om which they graduated or to districts in which diey
permanently reside or to schools in which an immediate family member is
employed.
Excepdons to this policy may be made in large urban school districts such as
Pittsburgh and Philadelphia where there are numerous elementary and
secondary schools so avoidance of assigning student teachers to their "home
school area" can be achieved.
Any exception to this policy must be approved by die dean, College of
Education and Educational Technology, or his/her designee.
Field Placements
The Office of Student Teaching determines final placements for all fieldwork
conducted in die public schools. In accordance with university policy,
students must be officially enrolled in the course for which the fieldwork is
being done. Students entering a classroom without being diJy registered are
in violation of university policy and may place themselves at risk legally.
International Student Teaching Opportunities
lUP students enrolled as teacher education majors in all certification areas
are eligible to participate in a halt-semester stutlent leaching program.
Students parUcipate in this program during the semester in which they
register to student teach, either in the fall or the spring. They are assigned to
a teaching site in the United States for the first half of the semester. The
second half of the student teaching experience is completed in an overseas
site. The program provides students with teaching experiences in one of the
following countries; Copenhagen, Denmark; London, England; Worcester,
England; Paris, France; Malahide, Ireland; and Gronigen, The Netherlands.
Teaching assignments are made for all cerdficadon areas.
Students wishing to participate in this program must have a cumuladve GPA
of 2.8 or better, and a GPA of 2.8 or better in die professional core subjects
and the major. The student teacher must demonstrate competency in
effective classroom teaching practices receiving a minimum grade of B in the
mid-semester evaluation. Upon approval of the lUP supervisor, the
international student teaching assignment is confirmed.
In addidon to I UP tuidon and partial fees, students must pay a study abroad
fee of $500. Travel costs, personal expenses, and living accommodation costs
for room and board (paid to the host family) are the responsibility of the
student. Living accommodations are arranged with host families near
teaching sites.
Appfications may be made anytime; however, preference is given to students
who submit application materials one year before diey student teach.
Interviews for tentative acceptance will be scheduled with the international
Student Teaching Committee two semesters prior to student teaching. For
more information, contact Dr. Robert King, Department of Profisssional
Studies in Educadon, at 724-357-2416.
Removal of a Student Teacher from a Student
Teaching Placement
Purpose: To establish reasons or a process for removal of a student teacher
from the student teaching assignment. The first two items are consistent with
Act 34, Criminal Record Check; item 3 establishes a procedure if student
behavior is not consistent with appropriate expectations of die school
district; item 4 establishes a process and assures that the student teacher
learns of unsatisfactory progress as early as possible; and item 5 is an appeal
process.
Policy: Student teachers are ultimately guests of the cooperating school
districts and may be removed by the district officers. A student teacher may
also be removed by lUP from the student teaching assignment for any of the
following reasons:
1 . If indicted for a felony, which is covered in the School Code and Act
34, there shall be a removal of the student teacher fi'oni the school
assignment until die matter is cleared. Wlien the student is cleared of
the indictment, the student teaching assignment will be extended to
cover the dme missed during student teaching.
1. If convicted of a felony, which is covered in the School Code and
Act 34, the student teacher will be withdrawn from the student
teaching assignment and will forfeit the dme spent during the
student teaching assignment.
2. If the behavior exhibited by the student teacher is not acceptable to
the school district, it should be documented by the school
administrator/principal in collaboraUon with the cooperating
teacher and the university supervisor/coordinator and director.
Student Teaching Office. If after discussion with the student,
improvement is evidenced, no fiirdier acdon will be taken by die
Student Teaching Office.
3. If it is determined eidier by the cooperadng teacher or university
supervisor diat the teaching competency of die student teacher is at
an unsadsfactory level based on die teaching competencies
indicated on the evaluation form and not in the best interest of die
students, a diree-way conference of cooperadng teacher, university
supervisor, and student will be held to discuss the concern,
possible outcomes, and remedial strategies. If after consultation
with the university director of Student Teaching, removal from
this student teaching placement is necessary, this action shaU be
done by the director of Student Teaching and the dean of the
College of Education and Educational Technology. This
behavior should be documented and discussed as early in the
student teaching experience as possible.

Nuclear Medicine Technology
Nuclear Medicine is die medical special!)- that utilizes die nuclear properdes
of radioacdve and stable nuclides to make diagnostic evaluations of the
anatomic or physiologic conditions of the body and to provide therapy with
unsealed radioactive sources. A nuclear medicine technologist's skills
complement those of the nuclear medicine physician.
The nuclear medicine technologist is a highly trained individual who has
completed an approved course of study in the theory of nuclear medicine
technology. This allied health profession utilizes radioactive materials for the
diagnosis of various pathological disease states and for the treatment of some
specific disorders. The American College of Radiology, American Medical
Association, American College of Medical Technology, American Society of
Technologists, Society of Nuclear Medicine, and the Society of Medicine-
Technologist Section cooperate to establish, maintain, and promote
appropriate standards of quality for educational programs in nuclear
medicine technolog)-.
The program leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Nuclear Medicine
Technology consists of three years of study at lUP and one year at the
University of Findlay/Nuclear Medicine Institute in Findlay, Ohio. Students
must achieve a GPA of 2.25 in the Natural Sciences and Mathematics to be
considered for admission to the Nuclear Medicine Institute. Since admission
to the Nuclear Medicine Institute is competitive. lUP cannot guarantee

Pan-African Studies Minor
The Pan-African Studies minor is a multidisciplinary program diat brings
together courses focusing on die vitafity and accomplisliments of pre-colonial
African societies, die cultural and racial heritages of people of African
descent in relationship to western societies, and aspects of modern-day
Aftican cultures. The cluster of courses included in this program represents
a broad, diverse look at the diaspora of people of African origin.
The minor helps lUP students to enrich their cross-cultural studies; to
heighten their awareness of. and sensitivit)' to, cultural diversity; and to
expand tiieir knowledge of world contributions of persons of African
heritage. A Pan-African studies minor is thus valuable in an increasingly

The Anthropolog)' Department promotes awareness of anthropological
knowledge and methods and seeks to fiirther the discipUne and its
apphcations to die problems of die contemporary world. Through teaching,
research, and involvement in campus and community events and programs,
the andiropology faculty members contribute to the liberal education of lUP
students. The andiropology major itself equips students with knowledge and
skills needed for fiill participation in the global environment of die twenty-
first centur)'.
Anthropology emphasizes the study of human biological and cultural
diversity within its four subfields: sociocultural anthropology, biological
andiropology, ling'uistics, and archaeology. All students receive a solid
foundation in the discipfine of anthropology and tailor their major to specific
interests by following one of the three tracks.
The General Anthropology track continues the student's education in all of
the subfields of andiropology, preparing the student for a graduate education
in anthropology or in one of many related fields. The general track also
provides a sohd base for interdisciphnary study with a number of odier fields
including biology, philosophy, political science, psychology, religious studies,
sociology, and Spanish.
The Archaeolog)' track provides an emphasis on the study of culture through
the material remains of human behavior. This track provides training for
careers in die growing fields of cultural resource management and historic
preservation, widi opportunities for employment in both goverrmient and the
private sector. A wide variety of internship opportunities provide hands-on
training in these areas.
The Applied Andiropology track provides students wiUi a background in
anthropological mediod and theory, a cross-cultural perspective, and an
avenue to translate diis knowledge into action dirough internships and
research. Examples of career opportunities include program design,
implementation, and evaluation; poficy analysis and administrative and
managerial development; assessment of current and future human needs; and
creation of strategies for social intervention and advocacy. In consultation
wadi an advisor, each student will develop his or her own curriculum in order
to build expertise in a specific topical area.
The department also offers preparation for teaching social studies with a
concentration in anthropology. This program leads to a Bachelor of Science
in Education degree. Widi its emphasis on cross-cultural comparisons, the
realities of contemporary global cultures, and cultural resource management,
anthropology provides a solid foundation for teaching social science at die
sccnrid;in k\cl. Tlit tlt|iartinc'iil jhso offers .i iiiiiiDr in anthropology.

Humanities and So( lal S< icnies decree. .1 Kailielor of Aria in Economics
proviiles a liberal eilncallon as well as professional and technical training.
Indeed, many .Htudenis completiug an imdergraduate major in Economics do
not pursue careers as professional econ(miist.s; they enter such fields a.s law,
nianageinenl, finance, and labor relations. By helping to develop a student's
ahllily lo think and comtnunicale, economics pro\-ides a finii foundation
upon which the student can build any one of a large number of possible
careers.
Four dlficrcnt degree programs arc available: a Bachelor of Arts in
Economics that prepares sIudeiiLs for Immediate employment or graduate
school; a Bachelor of Arts in Econoinics/Pie-L;iw track for students who
wish to attend law school; a Bachelor of .'\rLs in Economics/Mathemadcs
combining courses In btith areas to prepare students for graduate study In
economics as well as possible Immcdiale employment: and the Bachelor of
Science in Education dial prepares students to teach economics and other
social sciences in secondary schools.
The Department of Economics offers concentrations in seven areas of
Economics. The concentrations are deslgi\ed lo ei|uip students with die
education and skills tliat will help to enable them to obtain a position in
government or private business upon coni|)letion of the undergraduate
program. The concentrations available at present are
• Competition and Public Policy
• Economics of Government Affairs
• International Economics
• Labor Economics
• Managerial Economics
• Monetary Economics
• Quantitative Economics
Detailed information regarding these concentradons may be obtained from
die deparUnent chaiipei-soii. Concentrations are not restricted to Economics
majors.
Eidier ECON 101 or 121 will count as a LIbei-al Studies social science
course. Howe\cr, ECON 101 Is intended for students who will take only one
course in die field. Students who anticipate taking more dian one economics
course should schedule ECON 121. ECON 101 will not count toward eidier
a major or minor in economics and may not be taken after die successful
completion of. or in concurrent registraUons with, any odier economics
course.
Economics majors are encouraged to minor In one of die odier Social
Sciences, in Business, or in Madiematics.
The DeparUnent of Economics houses the Center for Economic Education.

Website: http://www. iup.edu/fiTHck-gcrmati
The Department ol French and Cierman oilers a varied curriculum designed
to provide not only basic language instnicUon but also the more advanced
competencies needed by language specialists and students hoping to take
advantage of an international study experience.
French
For the French major, the department has diree degree programs: the B.A. in
French, the B.A. in French for International Trade, and the B.S.Ed, in
French Educadon (K-12). The degree program in French for Intemadonal
Trade provides the solid undergraduate training preparatory to an M.B.A in
Intemadonal Markedng and Finance.
Students majoring in French will acquire proficiency in all phases of
language and enter more deeply into the history, culture, and fiterature of
Francophone countries. They will also gain knowledge of the linguistic
development of the language throughout the centuries. French majors
generally find employment in government work, librarianship, journalism,
foreign trade, airlines, tourism, business, and teaching. Students choosing
careers as teachers will find the close supervision and advanced methodology
offered by the department a disdnct asset.
College Language Requirements
Students in the College of Humauides and Social Sciences and in most
departments of the College of Natural Sciences and MathemaUcs must pass
the intermediate sequence of a foreign language (in French, FRNC 201-202
or FRNC 203) or demonstrate that they have somehow acquired the
equivalent proficiency level. Students from the other colleges may choose to
take French (FRNC 201 and 202 or die accelerated FRNC 203) to fiilfill a
Liberal Studies elective. Any student who chooses French has an opdon to
enroll in die tradidonal three-credits-per-semester courses or the accelerated
6-semestei-hour track.
Placement/Exemption
The student with no previous French study will take FRNC 101 (4sh) as a
prerequisite. Students with previous French study will be placed into the
appropriate course level by means of a written departmental e.xani
administered in the summer for entering freshmen and during the first week
of the semester for other students. No student judged to be a nadve speaker
of French will be allowed to enroll in any course below the 300 level, with
die excepdon of FRNC 254.
Study Abroad - Nancy, France
lUP has established a study abroad center in Nancy, France. All majors are
encouraged to participate in the Study Abroad Program, especially those
seeking the Intemadonal Trade degree. Students have an opdon to
participate in a ftdl-year or one-semester (spring) program. A six-week

traditions are die study of relationships bcrvveeu humans and emironment,
or die ecological tradition, and die study of spatial organization, which
involves the w~.iy people use space on die eardi's surface. In bodi tradirions
the focus is on understanding regions of the world and tlie interactions
vvidiin and between diem. Geographers make important contributions to die
undeistaiKling ol all aspects of humaiikiiKrs use of and impact on the earth's
.surface.
Regional Planning involves preparing for die future. The demands and
effects ot a large and growing population require that land use, resource use,
setdement patterns, transportaUon systems, and economic acdWty be
planned. lUgional planiniig i« coiiccnied witli die Hicial, locatiMtul. and

subject arcaii named in die National EiliKalion (.oal» program.
Geography and Regional Planning are in die same department. l>ccauii«
"Planning is die art of which geography is the science." Employment
opportunities for geographers and regional planners are excellent,
(ieography and planning occupations have iicen identified among tbc fastest
growingjiib fields by V.S. Nrwi and World Hrpnrl. Alumni occupy a wide
variety of positions in government, business, indusln. planinng. and
education. Environmental, localional. and spatial knowledge gained in die
department's programs provide skills desperately nceiled in today's job
market. .StudciiLs interested in obuiiiiiig additional c-arccr infonnation should
visit die departmental office in Room 10. Leonard Hall or visit our website at
wu'w.iiip.rdu/p-of^apliy.
Three degree programs arc offered by the deparUnent: Bachelor of Arts in
Geography, Bachelor of Science in Regional Planning, and Bachelor of
Science in Social Science Education/f Jeograpliy Track.
In addition to die geography core (GEOG), diere are four tracks for sfKcific
geographic competencies: GlS/Cartographer, Environmental Geographer.
Economic Geographer, and (lencral Geographer. The regional planning
(RGPL) major offers specific career opportunities in four somewhat parallel
tracks: GIS/Cartographer, Environmental Planner, Economic Plaiuier. and
Town Manager.
A minor in geography or regional planning is appropriate for majors in all
other fields of die natural and social sciences. Students in marketing and
information systems will find a minor in eidicr field relevant. A minor
consists of 15 semester hours in GEOG or RCJPL courses. The department
suggests students lake the core in eidier program if graduate study is
anticipated.
Department resources, which include the James E. Payne GIS/Cartography
Lab. offer access to advanced geogra|)hic analysis equipment and resources.
The lully equipped computer lab also houses color printers, digitizers, large-
format plotters and scanners, and appropriate mapping software. The most
heaWlv used software includes ARC/INFO. Arc\'ie»v, .Maplnfo. Atlas*GIS.
IDRISI. AutoCAD, and MiniCAD.
.\n important part of student education is involvement in community sen-ice
projects. The Spatial Sciences Research Center (SSRC). Robert Wilson,
director, coordinates diese projects and student skills and interests. Students
are usually compensated for their efforts. The SSRC has faciliries for GIS
database development and, GIS analysis, adas producdon. map compilation,
and cartographic production. Examples of S.SRC projects include:
Huntingdon Counrv- GIS: Cranberr\- Twp.. Butler Count\- GIS: Indiana
Borough GIS: PA One Call System (call before you dig) GIS: Blackbck
Creek Watershed Plan and Implementation: PennsyK-ania Soil Mapping
Project: PennsyKania Department of Labor and Industry: United Sutes
Department of Transporution Pipeline Mapping Repository.
The department also houses the Census Documents and Data Library,
coordinated bv Rebecca Reinhold. In conjuncuon with Stapleton Library,
holdings include populationAiousing/socioeconomic/mapping database CDs
and other publications used for teaching, research, and planning in
coimnunity service and local and county governments. Tbe department is
also an affiliate of the Bureau of Economic .Analysis at the Census Bureau
and a repositorv for L'SGS digital data.
The department houses both the National Council for Geographic
Education (NCGE). which senes geography educators at all levels with
acti\-ities and programs that address geography learning and instrucrional
and research issues in North .-America, and the Pennsyh-ania Geographic
.\lbance (PG.'^). which is supported by die PennsyK-ania Department of
EducaUon. PG.\ proWdes leadership and professional development
opportunities in geography teaching and learning in Pennsyh-ania. Ruth
Sliirev is executive director of NCGE and one of t\vo PG.A coordinators in
Pennsyh-ania.
.A strong internship program directed by John E. Benhart offers placement in
industr*-. engineering, coiiserN-ation. land management, and planning agencies
at die local, state, and federal levels.

98 COLLEGE OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES
Specific core requirements in Geography and Regional Planning ofier a
structured approach for majors. Appropriate subfields or tracks are available
in both programs to prepare students lor graduate work and to support
different career options for majors. There are four tracks for tlie geography
major and four tracks for tlie regional plaiuiing major.
• Geography General Geography Track
The General Geography Track encourages the major to sample courses
from different subfields of the discipline. This track prepares the major
for graduate work in geography and related fields of employment. Job
options include report wxiting, research analysis, and data gadiering. In
goverimient emploN-nient, die State Department, Department of
Commerce, and tlie Census Bureau are significant places for geography
skiUs.
• Geography-Geographic Information Systems and Cartographer
Track
• Regional Planning-Geographic Information Systems and
Cartographer Track
The Geographic Information Systems and Cartographer Track prepares
students for employment as Geographic Informadon System Specialists,
Facilities Managers, Cartographers, and Remote Sensing professionals.
Coursework includes mediods for identifying, modeling, and analyzing
the spatial organizadon of human and enviroimiental systems Irom both
practical and theoretical perspectives. Data collection, spadal
information management, and graphic presentation are integral skills
taught in track courses. Such skills could be used, for example, for
analysis of wildlife habitat, utility facility management, or transportation
system design and maintenance.
• Geography Economic Geographer Track
• Regional Planning-Economic Developer Track
The Economic Track provides a broad framework of ideas and theories
in addidon to a task-oriented approach to locauon analysis. Site
planners articulate the needs of the commimity for economic space, the
demands for convenient transport, the role of private enterprise, and the
management of growth. This interrelated group of courses is usefiil to
students, because economic geographers and developers are expected to
analyze the interactions of concepts and variables. Market analysis for
the location of new shopping centers, for example, requires
understanding of economic principles, population characterisUcs, and
die local political milieu, all in a spatial context.
• Geography-Environmental Geographer Track
• Regional Planning-Environmental Planner Track
The Environmental Track is designed to prejiare majors in geography or
regional planning for careers in environmental fields or graduate study
that leads to a variety of environmental posidons. Students who elect
this track will acquire knowledge of die physical and human processes
that shape the environment, strategies for analyzing environmental
issues, and concepts that underlie strategies for amefioradng
environmental problems. The skills acquired in this track will enable
students to assess the causes, consequences, and solutions to a wide
variety of environmental issues such as water poUuUon, acid rain, or
tropical deforestation.
• Regional Planning Town Manager Track
The Town Manager Track is designed to prepare planning students for
careers in local government and graduate work in public administration.
Students electing this track will become familiar with the structure,
operadon, and acUons of municipal government and die polidcal,
organizadonal, and institudonal basis of municipal management and
decision making. Skills acquired with this track will enable students to
undertake a varitt\ "I .m.ilvtit .k ti\ ilus (lt:si);mil Id describe, project,

Department of Journalism
Robert H. Russell, Chairperson; Ellerbach, Heilman, Jesick, Mukasa;
and professors emeriti DeGeorge. Furgiuele, Truby
Website: http://ivwui.iup.edu/journalism
Students interested in a career in news-editorial or pubhc relauons fields,
with opportunities in such related areas as adverUsing, desktop publishing,
computer-assisted reporting, and markeUng, should enjoy this innovative,
flexible program. The journalism major combines journalism elective
courses, the student's choice of a variety of courses from otlier university
departments, plus internships wliich provide on-the-job experience.
The lUP journalism major is flexible for the inchvidual student, who decides,
with an advisor, what directions his or her education will take lor a mass
communication career.
A student wishing to enter the program becomes a journalism major in the
College of Humanities and Social Sciences. Then, the student chooses an
individual program within a large group of elective journalism courses, plus a
much larger group of courses from various other areas of the university. A
student who completes the major graduates with a B.A. in Journalism.
Because journalism itself covers all areas of hfe, die journalism major covers
many areas of study preparation. There are only four required courses, so the
student is free to mold the program to his/lier owti special interests dirough
both major and free electives.
The journalism major will use journalism courses to fulfill the minimum of
30 hours required for the major. Alljournahsm majors must complete the
intermediate sequence of a foreign language. This may be done in one of
three ways: by examination, by earning credit in third and fourth levels of a
foreign language, or by completing four levels of a new language. If the last
procedure is used, the two begimiing foreign language courses may be
apphed as free electives to the total number of credits needed for graduation.
The Department of Journalism offers an 18-semester-hour minor designed to
complement any major. Three 3-semester-hour courses are required: JRNL
105, 102, and 120. The remaining 9 semester hours may be taken from die
following list of Journalism major courses: JRNL 326, 338, 344, 347, 375,
and designated Special Topics courses. Internship semester hours do not
apply toward the 18-semester-hour minor; however, a student in the minor
program may take an internship and apply the semester hours as free
electives.
Course Sequence
The journalism faculty offers the following operational policy for its course
sec|uence and prerequisites. The basic idea is for students to take Level 1
courses prior to Level II courses, etc. We ask that special attention be given
to course prerequisites to avoid scheduling students without proper
experience into courses. We do retain flexibihty of waiving sequence and
prerequisites in individual cases.

Religious Studies
The program in Religious Studies is designed to provide a balanced,
nonsectarian, cross-cultural approach leading to a better understanding of
the phenomenon of rehgion in human experience. It emphasizes an
interdisciplinary approach by a) requiring religion-related courses outside
Religious Studies and by b) encouraging die minor or a double major, rather
than a single major in Religious Studies.
The program is valuable for those planning careers in religious educaUon,
religious journalism, or religious broadcasting. The program also provides an
excellent background for graduates planning to enter Catholic, Jewish, or
Protestant seminaries. Religious Studies is also a good complement to majors
in such fields as Anthropology. English, Fine Arts, History, International
Studies, Music, Philosophy, Polidcal Science, Psychology, and Sociology.
Religious Studies is one significant way to integrate course studies within the
university curriculum.
In addition to the 24 semester hours of Religious Studies courses in tlie
major, 6 semester hours must be taken from a ninnber of courses offered by
other departments which complement those offered in Religious Studies.
Opportunity for interdisciplinary and cross-cultural study is implicit in the
study of reUgious themes and is required in die Religious Studies Program at
lUP. Revisions are pending in the Religious Studies program.
Minor
The requirements for a Minor in Religious Studies are l.'jsh:
1 . 1 2sh must be taken from the Religious Studies offerings, which include
certain required courses (see below).
2. 3sh must be taken outside the Religious Studies offering but in
^'reUgion-related'' courses.
3. No more than 3 non-classwork semester hours may count toward minor.
Consult advisor in Religious Studies for choices.
Liberal Studies Offerings
The Religious Studies program's Liberal Studies courses are all introductory
in nature: none presupposes any Rehgious Studies backgroimd. The student
may choose from the following: RLST 100, 250, or 290.

Political scienUsts focus upon polidcal systems, including the effect of
environment on the system, inputs, the decision-making agencies which
render binding public policies, and system outputs. Approaches to the study
of government and politics include die normaUve approach, in which
philosophical attendon centers on values by asking the question "What
ought to be?" and the behavioral approach, in which an attempt is made to
develop verifiable theories through scientific methods by asking the
questions "How?" and "Why?"
Students majoring in political science have employment opportunities in
federal, state, and local governments and with private civic groups, interest
groups, and polidcal groups. Students who go on to graduate work find
appointments at higher levels and in college teaching. Students graduating in
political science, as in any of the social sciences, are in demand by employers
in business and industry. Students compleung the Pohtical Science
Internship Program have experienced considerable success in finding
employment upon graduation. The pofidcal science major is also especially
suitable for the pre-law student.
Degrees offered by the Polidcal Science Department are the Bachelor of Arts
in Polidcal Science, in Government and Public Service, and in Polidcal
Science Pre-Law track. An interdisciplinary major and a minor in
InternaUonal Studies are sponsored by die Polidcal Science Department.
The department also offers a minor in political science.

Department of Sociology
Harvey S. Holtz, Chairperson; Ackemian, Chang, Darling, Condolf,
Grant, Heasley, Heckert, Hunter, Kanazawa, Nowak, Sanderson,
Schneider, Snyder
Website: htfp://wwu'. iiip. ijii/sociology
The Department of Sociology seeks to develop both the scientific and
humanistic foundations of sociolog)', to educate the wider community as to
the significance of sociological knowledge, to apply sociological knowledge
to current social problems, and to advance the profession by promoting the
welfare of individuals and society. The discipline of sociolog)' focuses
primarily on the analysis of modem industrial societies by examining their
basic patterns of social organization, the various changes that occur within
these patterns, and die impact of the patterns on individual thought and
action. Students are prepared for employment in human service fields or for
graduate study in sociology or related fields.
Students majoring in sociology may select one of three tracks: General
Sociology. Human Services, and Applied Social Research. The general track
attempts to broadly educate those students who may wish to pursue graduate
training in sociology and make sociolog)' a career and profession. Because of
its flexibility, it is also appropriate for students who want to pursue double
majors that would include such fields as psychology or criminology. The
general track gives students the broadest possible training in sociolog'y.
Students graduating witii majors in general sociology often find employment
in business, industry, and government.
The Human Services track in sociology seeks to help students understand
the causes of many of die problems that plague modern societies, such as
poverty, racial discrimination, substance abuse, and domestic violence. It is
designed to provide students with the knowledge and skills necessary to
become practitioners in various human services areas (e.g., juvenile
delinquency, medical sociology, gerontology, and interpersonal dynamics and
family sociology).
The AppUed Social Research track emphasizes the development of research
and assessment skills in students. Such skills are important in carrying out
program assessments, needs assessments, program development, and odier
activities that focus on gathering, analyzing, and interpreting data important
for policymakers.
The department also prepares teachers for secondary school social studies
with a concentration in sociology. The program leads to the degree Bachelor
of Science in Education. With its emphasis on patterns of social organization
in modern industrialized societies, sociology provides a sohd foundation for
teaching social science at the secondary level. Minors are available in
sociology and in apphed social research.

One of tilt ilianmciistiis i>l tlic twcmleth ceiilun, is tht- marked change in
the relation of citizens to their environment. Space probes, orbiting sateUilcs.
and productive research on die stnicture and syndiesis of living matter have
brought to the forefront for reexamination .such time-honored ijueries as,
"What is die nature of die universe?" or "Can people control their natural
environment?" or "How did life begin?" Sciendfically found answers to diese
and other questions, coupled widi proper application of this knowledge for
humankind's betterment, must be a significant part of die goal of educated
people ever)-where.
The objectives of the College of Natural Sciences and Madiematics are to
acquaint die student widi die kinds of problems which lend diemselves to
possible solutions dirough die use of science; to introduce different scientific
techniques dirough significant illustrative experiences; to give a sense ot
perspective in the development of science: and to develop an understanding
of die b.isii I ommnnitv of all scientific disciplines.

b. successfiil completion of an exemption or credit examinadon
Any foreign student, registered as such at lUP. whose acquired native
language is odier tlian English and who demonstrates an acceptable
proficiency in Enghsh, is exempt fi-om the foreign language requirement for a
Natural Sciences and Madiematics degree if die department he/she is
majoring in does not require a specific language not thus covered.
Preprofessional Programs
The college offers programs for die preparaUon of students for acceptance by
a professional school: pre-niedical (including osteopathic medicine) and pre-
veterinary medicine. In addition, the college olTers a major in the Natural
Sciences for those students whose goal is dentistry, pharmacy or
pharmacology, optometry, podiatry, chiropracUc medicine, or physical
therapy All programs are so designed diat, should work at a professional
school not ensue, the student may earn an lUP baccalaureate degree,
provided he/she has been faithftJ to facult)' advisement.

Degrees offered by the Department of Chemistry are the Bachelor of Science
m Chemistry, the Bachelor of Arts in Chemistry, and die Bachelor of Science
in Education with a Chemistry major. The first two degree programs are
under the College of Natural Sciences and Madiemadcs, and the diird is
under the College of Education and Educational Technology. The
department also offers a Chemistry minor.
The B.S. in Chemistry is a professional degree and is cerdfied by die
American Chemical Society. The student compledng this major should be
qualified to assume a position in industr)' or government as a chemist or to
apply for admission to graduate school to pursue advanced studies leading to
the M.S. or Ph.D. degree. The student considering going to a professional
school who also wishes to complete this degree should elect appropriate
courses as required by the professional school in addition to the courses
required here. Those students who are particularly interested in
biochemistry should elect a few selected biolog)' courses.
The curriculum leading to die B.A. in Chemistry is designed to allow for die
workable union of nonscience areas widi chemistry in such a way as to retain
die ftmdamental science and mathematics requirements needed for a career
in chemistry. A carefid selection of electives will qualify die student for
entrance into many fields in which there is an acute need for educated people
and, at the same time, satisfy the entrance requirements of various
professional and graduate schools.
Some possible and useftd combinations between chemistry and odier
disciphnes would include chemistry-biology, chemistry-business
admimstration, chemistry-computer science, chemistry-criminology,
cheniistr)'-government, chemistry-pre-dental, chemistry-pre-law, chemistry-
safety science, chemistry-pre-medicine, and chemistry-Enghsh (technical
wnting). The student must arrange a practical sequence of non-chemistry
courses in consort with his/her advisor and the department chairperson
concerned. A student seeking a career in forensic science should major in
chemistry. The deparuiient also offers pre-medical programs in bodi die B.S.
and B.A. curricula. These programs prepare die student to satisfy- die
entrance requirements of medical schools.
The curricidum leading to die B.S. in Education with a Chemistry major is
designed to prepare die student to teach chemistry at die secondary school
level. Upon completion of die specified coursework and die requirements for
teacher certification processes, the student is ehgible for Pennsylvania
certification by die Pennsylvania Department of Education.

The programs in Computer Science at lUP lead to the B.S. or B.A. degree
and are designed primarily to prepare graduates for productive work in
highly computer-dependent areas of business, go:'emment. and industry. In
recent years, majors graduating from die program have attained their first
jobs in business appheations, programming and svstems anal\sis. computer
software development, scientific and applied mathemaUcal programming,
and other computer-related areas and have gone to graduate school.
In a rapidly developing field such as Computer Science, it is important that
the graduate's education be broad and ftindamental so that new trends can
more readily be foUo«ed. Our goal is to balance fi.ndamentaiit>' and breadth
Hitli sufficient supervised practice so that our graduates are productive at die
tmie diey graduate but ready and willing to change with die field.
Most applied computer sciendsts work in cooperation «-iUi professionals
trained in odier areas and widi managers. Hence, die ability to work and
conuiiunicate widi odiers of difierent educational backgrounds is an
important characteristic. To diat end, we encourage Computer Science
majors to take a strong minor (or area concentration) in a second area of
interest. Some students may wish to double major. Majors in odier
disciplines at lUP are also welcome to take Computer Science courses for
which diey are qualified or a Computer Science minor.
Students majoring in Computer Science should set dieir goals beyond
simple programming and should be preparing
1 . to program weU, bodi in design and implementation phases, and
document what diey have programmed
2. to analyze real-worid problems in preparation for program design and
unplementation
3. to manage activities diat are strongly computer dependent
4. to improve die tools diat programmers and systems analysts use, i.e. to
develop '
a. better software systems
b. better graphical user interfaces
c. better languages for communicating widi computers
d. better web-based interfaces and databases
e. better mediods for solving intractable problems

Department of Geoscience
Darlcnc S. Richardson, Chairperson; Cercone, Hall, Hovan, Putirlu, ,_
Sutton, Taylor; and professor emeritus Park
Website: hUp://www. iiip. edu/geoscicnce
The Department of Geoscience provides curricula in areas of natural science
dealing with and related to the earth and its environment by offering courses
in astronomy, geology, meteorology, and oceanography.
In addition to on-campus instruction, opportunities exist for summer
coursework and research in geolog>" and oceanography at the Marine Science
Consortium located at Wallops Island, Virginia.
Degrees offered by the department arc the Bachelor of Science in Geology,
the Bachelor of Science in Envirorunental Geoscience, and the Bachelor of
Science in Education with a major in Earth and Space Science or with a
major in General Science. The first two degree programs are under the
College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and the last two are under tlie
College of Education and Educational Technology.
The B.S. degree in Geology is, in a sense, a dual-purpose degree program.
Not only is it designed to graduate well-trained, competent geologists, able to
compete for positions as professional geologists in tlie job market; it is also
designed to provide the student with the necessary allied science and
mathematics background to enable the good student to quahfy for admission
to the graduate school of his/her choice in Geology.
The B.S. degree in Environmental Geoscience offers the student a broad-
based science background. In addition to a firm foundation in Geology-
Geoscience courses, the student will also acquire a background in Biology
and Chemistr)'. This will provide thorough training for die rapidly growing
field of Environmental Geoscience, both for students who plan to pursue
postgraduate training in this field and for those who plan to enter directly
into jobs in federal and state agencies and private consulting firms.
The department recognizes as one of its functions the role of serving die field
of public education by the preparation of qualified and certified teachers of
eartli and space science. Also, because of the interdisciplinary nature of both
the department and the requirements for preparing general science teachers,
the department administers tlie program designed to lead to general science
certification and includes majors of that categor\- as department members.
Minor in Geology
The minor in Geology consists ofT7 semester hours. Required are GEOS
121-122 and GEOS 131-132. Three upper-level (300 or higher) courses in
geology (total 9sh) will make up the remaining requirements for the minor in
Geology totaling 1 7 semester hours.

The Department of Mathematics prepares students for work in industry,
graduate school mathematics, and teaching. Degrees offered hy the
department are the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, the Bachelor of
Science in Applied Mathematics, and the Bachelor of Science in Education
with a major in Matliematics Education. The Erst two degree programs are
offered within die College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, and the
third is in conjunction witli the College of Education and Educational
Technology. The department also offers a minor in Madiematics and a minor
in Applied Statistics.
The program for a mathematics major in the College of Natural Sciences and
Mathematics is two-phased. A student may pursue a degree in Apphed
Mathematics or Mathematics. Those completing a degree in Mathematics
will be prepared to continue their studies in mathematics in graduate school,
though some may enter business, industry, or government service. Those
students receiving a degree in Applied Mathematics will be primarily
prepared to enter business, industry, or government service in an area where
madiematics or computer science is used or to continue their studies in
applied mathematics or computer science in graduate school. This student
would not be expected to continue graduate studies in pure mathematics.
The department shares in a joint degree with the Economics Department.
Students with ability and interest in economics discover that a sohd
background in mathematics is an essential prerequisite for advanced
theoretical and applied work in die discipline. Similarly, students with talent
and interest in mathematics find economics an excellent field in which to
employ their skills and knowledge. The Bachelor of Arts in
Mathematics/Economics allows students to combine these complementary
subjects in a joint degree program administered cooperatively by the
departments of Mathematics and Economics. Enrolled students will be
assigned an advisor in each department.
Those completing die program will have an exceptional background for
graduate study in economics and such related fields as business, pubUc
pohcy, or operations research. They also will be ideally prepared to fill a
wide variety of technical and quantitative positions in bodi government and
private industry.
The program leading to the B.S. in Education with a major in Mathematics
Education prepares the student for teaching mathematics in junior or senior
high school. Many graduates, however, continue their formal education in
mathematics at the graduate level or work in government or industry.
Elementary education majors may elect to take a concentration of at least 15
semester hours in madiematics. The program of courses for diis
concentration in mathematics is as follows: in addition to MATH 151 and
152, select 9 semester hours from the following courses: MATH 317,420,

The program leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Science is
designed to prepare students for early admission to professional
schools-optometr)'. podiatry, chiropracUc, physical dierapy, pharmacy, and
denustry. Another track prepares students for further study in engineering.
The B.S. degree in Natural Science will be earned by students who transfer
to professional schools that have an articuladon agreement with lUP. In some
cases, students interested in obtaining a four-year baccalaureate degree
before entering a medical or professional school should enroll in a program
of studies leading to a B.A. or B.S. degree in the departments of Biology or
Chemistr)-. Students considering a professional career in a high-technology
business or industr)' may wish to obtain a foundation in tlie Natural Sciences
while using their free electives to pursue additional work in areas such as
Economics, Pre-Law, or a minor in Business Administration. The B.S. in
Natural Science may not be used for a second major or a second degree by
majors in die College of Natural Sciences and Matliematics. For furtlier
informadon about these programs, contact die coordinator of die Natural
Science Program.

The goal of tile Department of Physics is to prepare ftiUy qualified
individuals for productive careers in physics. Five degrees are offered within
die College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics: die Bachelor of .Science in
Physics, die Bachelor of .4rts in Physics, the Bachelor of Science in Applied
Physics, the Associate in Applied Science in Electro-Optics, and die
Associate in Science in Electro-Optics. The first diree programs otfer very
good preparation for graduate study in physics or for research in industrial
technology. The applied physics degree provides a strong technical
background for work in solid-slate electronics or electro-optics or for
interdisciplinary research in the areas of computer science, chemistry,
biology, and geology. A Bachelor of Science degree in Education witii a
major in Physics is also offered. A two-year pre-engineering program is
offered in cooperation with Drexel University wherein students transfer to
Drexel after two years. The department also offers a minor in Physics, as well
as general science courses diat satisfy the Natural Science requirements of
the Liberal Studies program.
To minor in Physics, a student must successfully complete 15 semester hours
in Physics which must consist of at least three courses at the 200 level or
liigher.
Cooperative Pre-Engineering (Chemical, Civil,
Electrical, Materials, Mechanical) Program with
Drexel University
Common to all pre-engineering programs are the following science and
madiematics requirements: *PHYS 131-141. PHYS 132-142, PHYS 322,
PHYS 342, *MATH 123.*MATH 124, MATH 171, MATH 241, *CHEM

130 SCHOOL OF CONTINUING EDUCATION
School of Continuing Education
Nicholas E. Kolb, Associate Provost and Dean
George E. Rogers, Assistant Dean
Website: www.iup.edu/continuing-ed
The mission of the School of Continuing Education is to serve the lifelong
educational needs of nontraditional students, working adults, professional
organizations, local and state agencies, and tlie citizens of the commonwealth
by providing access to the academic and human resources ol lUP.
The School of Continuing Education was created by the lUP Board of
Trustees in May, 1966. Today, the school comprises Credit Programs,
Conferences and Noncredit Programs, the Criminal Justice Training Center,
and the Vocational Personnel Preparation Center. The school is
characterized by its commitment to academic excellence and high-quality
programs. The school maintains a dynamic environment which fosters
iiuiovation and experimentation in order to improve programs continuall)
and respond to the ever-changing needs of society.
Credit Programs
The Credit Programs area offers a variety of opportunities for the adult and
nontraditional learner to access the academic resources of lUP on a part-time
basis. Courses may be selected from day or evening offerings.
The Associate of Arts Degree in General Studies is designed for the
nontraditional or adult learner who seeks to acquire a broad base of
knowledge in the liberal arts. This program consists of the core of Liberal
Studies requirements of the lUP bachelor's degree programs plus 9 to 12
semester hours of electives. The student is encouraged to develop a plan of
study with his or her academic advisor which will bring focus to his or her
interest in a particular area or subject. No more than 30 semester hours may
be transferred into tliis degree program from other colleges.
The Bachelor of Science degree in General Studies is designed for the
mature adult student, who imder facult)- advisement can explore and develop
an individualized plan of study which does not approach any existing lUP
major. This self-designed plan of study must be based on a specific theme
which incorporates basic and applied coursework within a theoretical
framework culminating in a senior-year independent research project. At the
time of application for degree candidacy through the School of Continuing
Education or transfer from another major, the student must submit a plan of
study which contains the proposed theme, rationale, and courses needed to
satisfy- the Special Interest Area. A facult)' member will be assigned to assist
witii die plan of study prior to acceptance to degree candidacy. Students
other than School of Continuing Education students must have completed
45sh before a request for transfer will be honored.
The student's plan of study, which is designed to fiilfill the Special Interest
Area, must be approved by the student's advisor and die dean of the School
of Continuing Education.
