History Albany State University, established originally as the Albany Bible and Manual Training Institute and supported by private and religious organizations, was founded in 1903 by Joseph Winthrop Holley. The Institute provided religious and manual training for African American youths of Southwest Georgia. The mission was to train teachers to teach basic academic skills and to train in the trades and industries, with special emphasis on domestic science and art. The Institute remained a privately supported Institution until 1917. In 1917 , the Institution became a state-supported, two-year college with a Board of Trustees and its name was changed to Georgia Normal and Agricultural College. Offering only a limited program in agriculture, the College viewed as its primary purpose the training of elementary teachers. In 1932, the Board of Regents was established, and the Institution became a part of the newly established University System of Georgia. In order to meet the changing needs of society, the mission of the College was expanded in 1943, and the College was granted four-year status and was authorized to confer the bachelors degree in elementary education and home economics. At this time, the College assumed the name Albany State College. Six years later, the program of the College was again expanded to include offerings in the arts and sciences, with majors in the humanities and social studies. Beginning in 1954, secondary-level programs were developed for teacher preparation in science, health and physical education, business, music, mathematics and natural sciences. The College continued to expe- rience growth and development and was authorized in 1961 to offer a four-year degree program in nursing. Always striving to address the educational needs of the time, the graduate program, a cooperative effort with Georgia State University, was added to the curriculum during the fall of 1972. Under this program, mas- ters degrees were offered in business education, mathematics education, elementary education, English edu- cation, health and physical education, music education and science education (biology, chemistry and physics). In the spring of 1975, a masters degree in business administration, through Valdosta State College, was added to the graduate program. During the decade of the '70s, the number of faculty earning the doctorate degree increased by more than fifty percent, and in September 1981, the College began offering a graduate program designed and delivered solely by faculty and staff of Albany State College. Masters degrees in business administration and education were offered. Since then criminal justice, nursing and public administration have been added. Albany State College was granted university status in July 1996 and the name of the Institution was changed to Albany State University. During this impressive growth and development, the University has been guided by the following presidents: Joseph Winthrop Holley, D.D., LL.D. (1903-1943) Aaron Brown, Ph.D., LI..D., Ed.D. (1943-1954) William H. Dennis, LL.D. (1954-1965) Thomas Miller Jenkins, J.D., LL.D. (1965-1969) Charles L. Hayes, Ed.D. (1969-1980) Billy C. Black, Ph.D. (1980-1996) Julius S.

The following statement shall be the policy of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia on this examination. It is the responsibility of each institution of the University System of Georgia to assure the other insti- tutions, and the System as a whole, that students obtaining a degree from the institution possess the basic competence of academic literacy; that is, certain minimum skills of reading and writing. Specific information relative to Regents Test regulations is available in departmental offices, the Office for Academic Affairs, and the Office of the Coordinator of the Regents Test Program. A special Regents Test Program procedure has been outlined and is designed as an alternative means of assessing the reading and writing competencies of foreign students whose native language is other than English and handicapped students who are physically unable to follow the Regents' Test Program established by the Board of Regents. Regents Test Procedures for Foreign and Handicapped Students Foreign students whose native language is other than English and handicapped students whose physi- cal impairments prevent their taking the Regents Test will petition the Office for Academic Affairs for exemption from the Regents Testing Program. The Vice-President for Academic Affairs will determine the validity of students requests and forward all justifiable requests to the Chairperson of the Department of English and Modem Languages. That Depart- ment will review each request for exemption and designate a three-member panel of English instructors to test the applicant for language competency according to the Foreign Students Alternative Test or accord- ing to the Handicapped Students Alternative Tests. The foreign students failure to demonstrate satisfacto- ry competence in reading and writing skills will require that the applicant: (a) take tutorial or remedial work designated by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs until the student is able to achieve an acceptable score on a standardized examination for students whose native language is other than English, or (b) take and pass a course in English as a Second Language. The handicapped students failure to demonstrate competence in reading and writing will necessitate the applicant: (a) attend special tutorial or remedial sessions designated by the Vice President for Academic Affairs, and (b) repeat the procedures outlined for certification of competence. Students with learning disabilities will be accommodated on the Regents Test in accordance with approved (University System of Georgia) procedures. Matriculation Time Far Degree The normal time required to complete degree requirements is four academic years when the student car- ries a full load, 15 to 16 semesters, and no remedial courses. The maximum time allotted for completing degree requirements is six academic years or 12 semesters. Beyond this period, approval must be obtained on a term by term basis from the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. Students changing programs will be required to meet the requirements of the department to which the change is being made and must follow the course of study indicated by that department. Credit Load The normal credit load is from 15 to 16 semester hours. Students desiring to carry more than a normal load must have the approval of their advisor, department chairperson and dean of the respective school. Per- mission to cany 17 or 18 hours will require a 3.0 or above cumulative grade point average. Permission to cany more than 18 hours will require a 3.0 or above cumulative average and a 3.0 semester GPA during the last semester of residence. A graduating senior can carry an overload with a 2.5 cumulative GPA one semes- ter (only) during the senior year. In special cases, students may be permitted to carry more than 20 hours per term provided permission is granted by the Vice-President for Academic Affairs. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Academic Affairs Requirements/Regulations & Support Services contents Academic Advisement.........................43 Grading System .............................43 Honors and Awards ...................... .44 Academic Standing...........................44 Academic Probation/Suspension...............44 Residence Classification ...................45 Legal Residency Requirements................45 Registration and Schedule Changes ..........46 Auditing Courses for Non-Credit ............46 Withdrawal from University .................46 Transcripts.................................47 Academic Classification.....................47 Academic Renewal Policies and Procedures ...........................47 Transient Status .............................47 Veterans Assistance Program ................ 48 Buckley Amendment ............................48 Grade Point Average...........................48 Academic Repeat Policy........................48 State of Georgia Legislative Requirements .............................48 Second Degrees ...............................49 Procedure for Applying to Take College Level Examination Program (CLEP) .........49 aft I, jrtiiiiil Mr y1 m m "t; < v 1 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Academic Support Academic Support Services Academic Advisement Academic advisement is available to each student at Albany State University.

To be eligible for the Deans List, a student must maintain a B" average and must have carried a credit load of at least 12 semester hours. Academic achievement may be recognized by election to membership into Alpha Kappa Mu National Honor Society and/or one of the discipline honor societies during the junior or senior year. To graduate with honors, a student must have a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher based on the 4.0 system, must have been in residence at Albany State University, and must have completed a minimum of 60 semes- ter hours. The average will be based on all college work completed. The notation of honors is made on the commencement program, the students permanent record and transcripts as follows: Summa Cum Laude If the cumulative average is between 3.75 and 4.00. Magna Cum Laude If the cumulative average is between 3.5 and 3.74 Cum Laude If the cumulative average is between 3.00 and 3.49. Students who do not satisfy the above requirements, but have earned a grade point average of 3.0 or higher may graduate with distinction". 44 Academic Standing To assure the most beneficial use of time and resources of both the student and the institution, certain academic standards have been set by Albany State University. If a student is to make and maintain satis- factory progress, he must adhere to these standards. Three factors affect a students academic status; namely, the cumulative grade point average (CGPA), the number of semester hours earned, and the number of semesters completed. The maximum time allotted for completing degree requirements is six (6) years or eighteen (18) semesters. A student whose academic standing falls below the minimum prescribed standards will be governed by the following: 1. Academic Warning. An Academic Warning status will be indicated when a students GPA falls below 2.0. The Academic Warning status will be removed if the students GPA becomes 2.0 or above at the end of the next term. 2. Academic Probation. If the GPA of a student whose status is that of Academic Warning remains below 2.0 at the end of the term, the students status becomes that of Academic Pro- bation. A student whose status is that of Academic Probation must achieve a grade point aver- age o%2.0 or greater at the end of the subsequent term to preclude Academic Suspension. If the student achieves a 2.0 or greater GPA, the students status will revert to good standing. 3. Academic Suspension. A student whose status is that of Academic Probation and fails to achieve a GPA of 2.0 or greater at the end of the term may be suspended for one term. 4. Developmental Studies. To preclude having two standards (one for Developmental Studies students arid another for new students), the same standards above will apply for all students. Both new students and students exiting Developmental Studies will be tracked using the standards described above beginning'with their first term entering the University or their first term exiting Developmental Studies. 5: Readmission. Upon being readmitted after suspension, students must pay for and cany a minimum of 9 credits and achieve a minimum term GPA greater than 2.0 to preclude subse- quent suspension for at least a year. For any new readmissions, this same standard will apply. Academic Probation/Suspension A minimum of 16 hours must be completed by part-time students by the end of the first two semesters. They will be expected to complete one-half of the credit hours designated under each academic year. A student who fails to meet the minimum standards will be placed on academic probation. He may be considered making satisfactory progress if he completes at least six hours, with a minimum grade point aver- age of 2,0 for the semester. If the student does not meet the minimum standards after the additional semester, he may be suspend- ed for one semester. If a student elects to change his major or course of study after completing 76 semester hours, the insti- tution will reconsider the students adherence to the maximum time frame and reevaluate, on an individual basis, for an additional year on the maximum time frame. Only one major course of study change will be 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog considered for increasing the maximum time frame. An appeal process is available for students who have extenuating circumstances which account for their lack of progress. The appeal process is initiated by writing a statement to the Admissions and Academic Eval- uation Committee indicating the specific reasons for the failure to make satisfactory progress. The Commit- tee will review the statement as well as past academic progress and will notify the student of its decision. The appeal process must be initiated by the student within 10 days of the notice of probation or suspension. If suspended, students must apply for readmission. Readmitted students will remain on probation until sat- isfactory academic progress is achieved. Residence Classification Residence status is not changed automatically, and the burden of proof rests with the student to provide documentation that he or she qualifies as a legal resident under the regulations of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia. To insure timely completion of required processing, a student/applicant requesting a change in residence classification for a specific semester should file the Petition for Georgia Residence Classification and all supporting documentation, not later than three weeks (20 working days) prior to registration. Decisions prior to registration cannot be guaranteed when petitions and all supporting documentation are received after the specified deadline. If the petition is denied and the student /applicant wishes to petition for a later semester, a new Petition for Georgia Residence Classification must be submitted for that semester. A petition to be reclassified as a resident of Georgia can be obtained from the Registrars Office. Sup- porting documents and petition should be returned by July 1 for fall term, November 15 for spring term and Mayl for summer term. Legal residents of Georgia, as well as certain categories of nonresidents, may be enrolled upon payment of resident fees in accordance with the following Regents rules: Legal Residency Requirements (Regents' Rules] 1. (a) If a person is 18 years or oldeq^he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that he or she has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least twelve months immediately before the beginning date of registration, (b) No emancipated minor or person 18 years of age or older shall be deemed to have gained or acquired in-state residence status for fee purposes while attending any educational institution in this state, in the absence of a clear demonstration that he or she has in fact established legal residence in this state. 2. If a person is under 18 years of age, he or she may register as a resident student only upon showing that his or her supporting parent or guardian has been a legal resident of Georgia for a period of at least 12 months immediately preceding the date of registration. 3. If a parent or legal guardian of a minor changes his or her legal residence to another state following a period of legal residence in Georgia, the minor may continue to take courses for a period of twelve consecutive months on the payment of instate tuition. After the expiration of the twelve-month period, the student may continue his or her registration only upon the pay- ment of fees at the out-of-state rate. 4. In the event that a legal resident of Georgia is appointed as guardian of a nonresident minor, such minor will not be permitted to register as an in-state student until the expiration of one year from the date of court appointment and then only upon a proper showing that such appointment was not made to avoid payment of the out-of-state fees. 5. Aliens shall be classified as nonresident students: provided, however, that an alien who is liv- ing in this country under an immigration document permitting indefinite or permanent resi- dence shall have the same privilege of qualifying for in-state tuition as a citizen of the United States. 6. Waivers: An institution may waive out-of-state tuition for: (a) nonresident students who are financially dependent upon a parent, parents or spouse who has been a legal resident of Georgia for at least twelve consecutive months immediately preceding the date of registration; provided, however, that such financial dependence shall have existed for at least twelve consecutive months immediately preceding the date of reg- istration; (b) international students, selected by the institutional president or his or her authorized repre- sentative, provided that the number of such waivers in effect does not exceed one percent of the equivalent full-time students enrolled at the institution in the fall semester immedi- ately preceding the semester for which the out-of-state tuition is to be waived; 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog (c) full-time employees of the University System, their spouses and their dependent children; (d) medical and dental residents and medical and dental interns at the Medical College of Georgia.

(h) selected graduate students at university-level institutions. (i) students who are legal residents of out-of-state counties bordering on Georgia counties in which an institution of the University System is located and who are enrolled in said insti- tution. A student who is classified as a resident of Georgia must notify the Registrar immediately of any change in residence status. If it is determined that the student has misrepresented or omitted facts which result in classification or reclassification as a resident student, retroactive charges for non-resident fees will be made by the Fiscal Affairs officer. PLEASE NOTE: In order to avoid delay and inconvenience upon arrival for registration, prospective stu- dents should seek clarification of all questions concerning residence status at the time of admission. Ques- tions for clarification should be addressed to The Registrar, Albany State University, Albany, Georgia 31705.

Copies of this policy are on file in the Registrars Office, and are made available at registration. Grade Point Average The grade point average is the ratio of quality points earned to the number of credit hours attempted. The grade point will be calculated for each student at the end of each semester and will be printed on the grade report as follows: I J The term grade point average is the number of grade points earned for the term divided by the number of credit hours attempted for that term. 2. The cumulative grade point average is the number of all grade points earned divided by the total number of hours attempted. 3. Incomplete I grades are not calculated in the grade point average until the I is removed. Repeat Policy Statement The University provides an opportunity for students to repeat courses in which D" or F grades are earned. The following stipulations apply: 1. Effective for all undergraduate students enrolled Fall Quarter, 1997 or after, only the first passing grade will be used to compute the GPA. 2.

To this end,zthe Honors Program offers students the opportunity to receive individualized instruction, thereby interacting with top faculty members; to enroll in small, enriched classes; to pursue areas of interest through independent projects and research; and to participate with others of similar abilities. The Honors Program seeks to recruit academically talented students whose records and performance reflect an ardent desire for an in-depth and enriched educational experience. While standards to measure such an individual may be arbitrary, a freshman applicant ordinarily should (1) have an aggregate minimum SAT score of 1000, (2) rank in the top 5/o of his or her high school graduating class, (3) exhibit potential for leadership and academic excellence, and (4) demonstrate an ability to read with comprehension and to uti- lize communication skills (oral and written) effectively. A candidates admittance to the Honors Program does not necessarily mean that the studept will remain in the program. Yearly, the Honors Academic Policy and Planning Committee reviews the progress made by each student and determines whether the student should continue in the program. A student accepted imthe Honors Program may exit the program under one of these conditions: 1. Graduation with GENERAL HONORS designation: Those students who complete all college requirements for graduation, who fulfill Honors Program course requirements and who have an overall grade point average of 3.0 or above will graduate with GENERAL HONORS desig- nation. (Existing graduation honors based solely on grade-point average will continue and run parallel to the.Honors Program). 2. Voluntary transfer into the regular degree program: Some students may elect not to qualify for GENERAL HONORS and choose only portions of the Honors curriculum to satisfy standard graduation requirements. 3. Mandatory transfer into the regular degree program: Upon a review of a candidates perfor- mance by the Honors Academic Policy and Planning Committee, a student may be dropped from the program if his or her grade point average falls below 3.0. A student whose grade point average falls below 3.0 will be counseled and informed that he or she will be dropped from the program if he or she fails to achieve a semester grade point average of 3.0 the fol- lowing semester. A student should seek to maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or above at all times. Continuing Education and Community Development At Albany State University, continuing education means non-credit programs, short courses, seminars, workshops, conferences and teleconferences. Activities are designed to appeal to the professional, cultural and Recreational interests of the residents of the community. Since courses cannot be taken for college cred- it or later converted to college credit, college admission requirements are not applicable. Continuing education courses are open to any interested citizen. Most activities are self-supporting and therefore require a nominal registration fee. Participants who enroll in professional courses, courses leading toward certification and other work related courses are eligible for CEUs. Special arrangements are available to professional agencies who meet continuing education guidelines and criteria. One can expand professional and personal horizons through participation in a broad array of continu- ing education programs and courses. SDL) Credit Individual Staff Development Units" for school system employees and other educational agencies may be awarded contingent upon the PRIOR APPROVAL of the appropriate certifying agent for the respective educational agency. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Non-Credit Courses Continuing Education & Community Development Non-credit courses are offered in the following areas: The Arts Computers English Language Foreign Languages Health Issues Professional Development Teleconferences Women's Issues Youth Courses Just Plain Fun! Cooperative Education Cooperative Education is a program in which students are employed for specific periods of off-campus work as a required part of their academic program. This employment is related as closely as possible to the students course of study and interest. The Albany State plan consists of a four-year pattern of work and campus study. It begins after students have successfully completed the freshman year. The innovative program enables students to prepare realistically for meaningful careers by allowing them to relate classroom theory to practical application on the job. While students are engaged in produc- tive employment, they will have the chance to observe skilled professionals at work in their fields of spe- cialty-an opportunity which will help them decide whether their vocational aspirations show promise of long range personal satisfaction. The Co-op Program at Albany State University is open to all students in all areas of professional inter- ests and preparation. The requirements for admission into the Co-op Program are as follows: 1. Successful completion of thirty (30) semester hours of academic credit with a 2.5 grade point average or better out of a possible 4.0. 2. Successful completion of a series of interviews with the Director of Co-op and/or Co-op Advisory Committee. A transfer student must meet both the above requirements and must have completed at least twelve (12) semester hours of academic work at Albany State University with a 2.5 grade point average or better out of a possible 4.0. Off-Campus Programs Off-Campus Programs are coordinated by the Office of Academic Affairs and are thereby governed by all policies of Academic Affairs. For the purpose of off-campus instruction, the Vice-President for Academ- ic Affairs is assisted by a coordinator who, in this capacity, works with deans and chairpersons of academ- ic units to assist them with assessing the educational offerings at sites within the Universitys service area. For efficiency, the University has identified off-campus program sites that are dispersed throughout its geographical area. All off-campus programs or courses are offered at or via these off-campus sites. Off-campus sites are currently located at Bainbridge, Thomasville, the Marine Corps Logistics Base, Phoebe Putney Memorial Hospital, Fitzgerald, Pearson, and Tifton. An Instructional Center Liaison serves each off-campus site where there is a need. The instructional center liaison will coordinate instructional activities offered at and via that site. These persons will relate directly with the corresponding departmen- tal chairperson and coordinator of Off-Campus Programs in providing for programs at the off-campus site. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Department of Military Science Army ROTC Program Reserve Officers Training Corps Albany State University offers courses in Basic and Advanced Military Science. The basic courses, taken during the freshman and sophomore years, are designed to teach principles and techniques of leadership and to develop in each student an understanding of the role of the Army in the defense of the United States. The purpose of the advanced course, taken during the junior and senior years, is to educate selected students in a balanced course of officer training, both theoretical and practical, which will qualify them to perform the duties of a commissioned officer in the Army of the United States. Upon receiving the Bachelors Degree each student who successfully completes the advanced course will be commissioned as a second lieutenant in one of the career branches in the United States Army. While participating in the advanced course, each student is paid $150 per month for the academic school year, not to exceed 10 months for each of two years, or a total of $3,000. Additionally, during the summer between the junior and senior years, while the student attends the Advanced ROTC Summer Camp, he/she will receive approximately one-half of a second lieutenants pay for the five-week period. Two-Year Program For those students who were unable, or did not elect, to enroll in the basic course and who desire to pursue a commission, the Army has developed a two-year program. The requirements of the basic course can be met by attending a six-week course. Veterans who wish to pursue a commission may enter the advanced program with evidence of satisfactory prior service, appropriate academic standing and approval of the Professor of Military Science. Scholarship Program The Army ROTC Scholarship Program offers financial assistance to outstanding young men and women. Each scholarship pays tuition, books, labs and other associated fees, plus a subsistence allowance of $1,500 per year ($150 per month).

Departmental Mission The mission of the ROTC program is to instruct and train the ROTC cadet so that each graduate shall have the qualities and attributes essential to a progressive and continuing career as an officer in one of the branches in the United States Army. Inherent to this mission are the objectives: 1. Mental-to provide a collegiate education in a mutually agreed discipline leading to a Bache- lors degree. 2. Moral-to develop in the cadet a high sense of duty and the attributes of character, with emphasis on integrity, discipline and motivation essential to the profession of arms. 3.

Developmental Studies/Leaming Support courses are non-credit and designed for students who indicate by test results, academic deficiencies in the basic skills of reading, mathematics and English. The focus of these courses is on the needs of the students at their individual levels of ability and development. Students who do not meet the University's established score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or American College Test (ACT) are required to take the College Placement Examination (CPE) to determine pro- ficiency in reading, English and mathematics. Those persons failing to take the required number of college preparatory courses are also required to take the CPE. Students scoring less than 430 on the SAT-Verbal and /or less than 400 on the SAT-Mathematics or less than 18 on the ACT-English and/or less than 16 on the ACT-Mathematies will be required to take the Col- lege Placement Examination in mathematics, English and reading. Students will be required to register only for those courses in which they demonstrate a deficiency. For example, if there is a deficiency in mathematics and a required proficiency in English and reading skills, the student will register for a Developmental Studies/Leaming Support course in mathematics and regular col- lege courses which do not have developmental requirements as prerequisites. Students must take required Developmental Studies/Leaming Support courses during their first semester of enrollment and continue taking them for each semester of enrollment until all requirements have been completed. Developmental Studies students may not accumulate more than 20 hours of academic credit before completing all developmental requirements. If they do, they will not be allowed to take further cred- it courses until these requirements are met. Students taking their Developmental Studies/Leaming Support courses and college credit courses may not drop or withdraw from Developmental Studies/Leaming Support courses and remain in college credit courses. An advisor must advise and approve the schedule of a student who is withdrawing or dropping a course or courses. DEVELOPMENTAL STUDIES SUSPENSION A student must complete academic deficiencies within a specified time frame established by the Board of Regents. A student who has not completed requirements for exiting a Developmental Studies area (Eng- lish, reading, mathematics) after twelve semester hours or three semesters, whichever occurs first, will be suspended. A student may not be considered for readmission within three years of the suspension. Prior to suspension, a student may appeal in writing to the Chairperson of Developmental Studies/Leam- ing Support for one additional course. The student must be individually evaluated and determined to have a reasonable chance of success, be in an exit level course and have reached the limit in only one Develop- mental Studies area. If granted the additional course, the student may enroll in only the Developmental Studies course. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog ARTS & SCIENCES Department of English and Modern Languages The Department of English and Modem Languages offers the Bachelor of Arts Degree in English, French and Spanish.

The Department also provides non-major courses in art, music, speech and theatre in support of the liberal arts curriculum requirements of the University. The Bachelor of Arts degree in Art offers concentrations in drawing, painting, sculpture, graphics and crafts. The program provides the student broad technical knowledge and professional skills through varied instruction in the studys disciplines. It is further reinforced by arranged interaction with professional artists through residencies, seminars, and student apprenticeships/intemships, and by liberal subjects promoting identification of purpose and social awareness-necessary adjuncts to the development of the creative artist. Potential Art majors seeking admittance into the discipline must submit a portfolio of previous work for review and approval before a majors" status can be granted. Additionally, for acceptance into and gradu- ation from the discipline, each student must have, and thereafter maintain, a cumulative grade point aver- age of 2.25 or better. All majors must earn a minimum grade of C in each art course. Majors must perform satisfactorily on the Regents Test and complete the Graduate Record Examination. The Bachelor of Arts degree in Music offers applied concentration in voice, piano, wind instruments, and percussion. The program also offers courses in music theory, ear-training, counterpoint, form and analysis, music history, and literature with emphasis on performance, leading to further study at the graduate or pro- fessional level. Participation in performance organizations relative to the students area of applied specialty is also required. Music majors may enter the discipline either at the freshman or transfer level. It is impor- tant for entering freshman music majors to identify themselves before or upon registration, as there are music division entrance requirements. It is also important that potential music majors immediately become enrolled in the proper sequential theory and applied classes which begin at the freshman level. Transfer stu- dents will enter at a stage commensurate with their level of proficiency and prior instruction. For acceptance into major vocal or instrumental applied courses, students must have had prior instruction and demonstrate requisite proficiency via an audition before the music faculty. A second juried audition prior to acceptance into junior level applied courses is also required, and a final Senior Recital must be presented in order to graduate. Additionally, for acceptance into and graduation from the discipline, each student must have and maintain a cumulative grade point average of 2.25 or better. All majors must earn a minimum grade of C in each music course. Majors must perform satisfactorily on the Regents Test and must take the Depart- mental Exit Exam. The Bachelor of Arts degree in Speech and Theatre offers two concentrations for which students may receive degree specialization: Speech Concentration and Theatre Concentration. Students with specific objec- tives (law, radio and television, announcing or politics) may consult with faculty for advice on a program of study which would best serve their career ambitions. The program is designed to provide maximum flex- ibility in meeting the varied interests and career objectives of its students. Each of the concentrations has specific requirements, i.e. dramatic performances, qualifying exams, oral presentations, etc.; however, stu- dents in both concentrations are required to have a grade point average of 2.25 or better to enter and exit the Bachelor of Arts program in Speech and Theatre. A grade of C or better is required in all major cours- es. Majors must also perform satisfactorily on the Regents Test and complete the Departmental Exit Exam- ination. The Department offers the M.Ed. degree in Music Education.

The department also offers a degree in science education with a broad based emphasis in this area. Biology The major in biology provides courses and course sequences leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in Biology. The program prepares a student for professional careers and employment in the biological sci- ences and teaching in the area of biology. The flexibility and design of the program aid in the preparation for entrance into graduate, medical, pharmacy and dental schools, as well as other professional schools. Students interested in attending medical and dental schools choose from a select number of biology and chemistry courses and are advised by the Pre-Health Advisor. The student majoring in biology must complete a minimum of 32 hours in biology, including Biology 2111K, 2112K, 2211K, 2311K, 2801, 3101K, 3501K, 4001, 4002 and 4701K. Additionally, the major must com- plete 12 hours of biology electives. The electives will be chosen by the student with the advisor from a list of approved electives. Biology majors and minors must make a C or better in all biology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics courses. Students must meet the requirements of the Core Curriculum and pass the Regents Exam. Students must also pass a major field examination (Area Concentration Achievement Test) during the senior year. The major in Science Education (Broad Field Biology Emphasis) must complete a minimum of 53 hours in Science, including BIOL 1801, 2111K, 2311K, 3250K, 3311K, 3501K, and 4805. Additionally, the major must complete a biology elective (minimum 3 hours, 3000 level or above). Students must also meet the require- ments of the Core Curriculum and pass the Regents and Praxis I Exams. Students are required to pass major field examinations (Praxis II) during the senior year. A grade of C or better is required in all science and mathematics courses and a science education major must maintain 2.5 GPA in order to graduate. (See teacher education advisor requirements) Chemistry The major in chemistry provides courses and sequences leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in chemistry. The major program is designed to follow the criteria for baccalaureate degrees as set forth by the Committee on Professional Training of the American Chemical Society. The program prepares the student for professional employment after graduation and also provides a strong academic and laboratory experi- ence for those students who wish to pursue graduate degrees in Chemistry or professional schools. Students must meet the requirements listed in the Core Curriculum and pass the Regents examination. The major in chemistry must complete a minimum of 49 semester hours of chemistry. All students are required to earn at least a grade of C in all chemistry, biology, physics, and mathematics courses. All stu- dents are required to take the American Chemical Society standardized test in the area in which they are enrolled. Students must take a Major Field Achievement Test (MFAT) during the senior year. Engineering Albany State University offers two types of pre-engineering programs that lead to a Bachelor of Engi- neering degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology: (1) The Regents Engineering Transfer Program (RETP) and (2) The Dual Degree Program. The Regents Engineering Transfer Program (RETP) is a cooperative program between the Georgia Insti- tute of Technology and Albany State University that allows qualified students to attend Albany State Uni- versity for the first two years and then transfer to Georgia Tech to complete the requirements for a Bache- lor of Engineering degree. To be admitted to this program, high school students must meet the following requirements: (1) high school grade point average of B or better (2) at least 550 on the mathematics por- tion of the SAT, and (3) at least 450 on the verbal portion of the SAT. The Dual-Degree Program is also a cooperative program with the Georgia Institute of Technology and is designed for students who wish to have a broad liberal arts background in addition to their chosen field of engineering at Georgia Tech. After the completion of requirements in the two programs, the student will be awarded a B.S. Degree from Albany State University and a B.S. Degree in Engineering from Georgia Tech. To be admitted to Georgia Tech under this program, students should have an acceptable GPA at Albany State University. Students in the Dual Degree Program may include some engineering courses as electives that will be beneficial to their progress at Georgia Tech. Students may also matriculate at other engineering institu- tions after completing RETP and dual degree requirements at Albany State University. Students are assigned an advisor at Albany State University who will assist them in planning their academic program of study. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology Courses Titles Credit Area E________________________________ Hours Biology 1.

The student who majors in psychology gains a fundamental understanding of the principles of human thought, emotion and behavior programs. In addition to the program's emphasis on psychological factors and human learning, biological and social determinants of human behavior are also emphasized as well as research methods. This broad based training prepares students to understand, evaluate and influence their own behavior as well as the behavior of others. Because psychology is relevant to numerous fields, job oppor- tunities for psychology majors are diverse and include employment in such areas as business and industry, educational settings, mental health agencies and hospitals, governmental agencies (including the military and law enforcement),, etc. Students who plan to become professional psychologists or mental health prac- titioners will be prepared to continue their education in order to obtain a graduate degree in one of the more than 50 areas of specialization within psychology. The Psychology program is a member of the Council of undergraduate programs in psychology. Departments with undergraduate programs in psychology, in insti- tutions accredited for such purposes by their regional accrediting association, are eligible for membership on the council. The major in Psychology requires: 1. Completion of a minimum of -120 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of all required examinations: Psychology test of the Graduate Records Examination (GRE), or the Major Area Examination and a departmental exit examination. SOCIOLOGY The major in sociology provides courses that lead to a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology. The soci- ology program offers a variety of courses designed to enhance the knowledge of sociocultural environ- ments, human social behavior and social groups. In contrast to psychology, which focuses on individual behavior, sociology examines human behavior at the group level. Sociologists attempt to explain how and why society changes over time, and how and why societies differ from one another. The program of study in sociology provides students with adequate competencies for successful graduate study in sociology, other related behavior sciences, gerontology and religion. The degree provides some employment options at the bachelors level and, by carefully selecting sociology and allied electives, the students can enhance their employment possibilities. Sociology majors can also pursue a dual degree with either psychology or social work as the second major. The major in Sociology requires: 1. Completion of 121 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of all required examinations: Sociology Test of the Graduate Records Examination (GRE), or the Major Area Examination, and a departmental examination. SOCIAL WORK The major in social work provides courses that lead to the Bachelor of Social Work (B.S.W.) degree. The Social Work Program was awarded candidacy status by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) in February, 1997. The primary purpose of the B.S.W. degree program is to educate the major entry level gen- eralist practice in social work and social welfare, seeking to maximize human development and dignity, social justice and quality for diverse populations. The curriculum is comprised of a liberal arts base com- bined with professional foundation courses, skills and ethics. Preparation for a career in generalist social work practice is augmented by a supervised field practicum. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog The major in Social Work requires: 1. Completion of a minimum of 120 semester hours with a cumulative grade-point average of at least 2.0. 2. Completion of all major courses with grades of C or above. 3. Completion of the ACAT examination. A dual major program is also available for students interested in combining any two areas of study: Psy- chology and Sociology, Psychology and Social Work, Sociology and Social Work. Completion of a dual major requires one additional semester beyond the first degree. The department also offers minors in psychology and sociology. A minor program requires twenty semester hours in upper level prescribed courses along with elective courses. The department offers certificates in psychology, sociology and social work to enhance employment opportunities and/or preparation for graduate school. Each of the certificates requires twenty semester hours of upper level courses including a field practicum.

Graduate Admission General admission requirements are established for all graduate degree programs. Students applying for admission must satisfy the following criteria as a minimum. Baccalaureate Degree Applicants must have received a baccalaureate degree from an accredited college or university with an undergraduate major in (or prerequisite requirement satisfied for) the planned graduate field of study. Grade Point Average Applicants for regular admission status must have earned a minimum 2.5 undergraduate grade point average calculated on all work attempted. The Education Specialist degree program requires a minimum 3.0 grade point average on all work at the masters level. Standardized Test Requirement Standardized tests required for admission vary according to the degree program. 1998-2001 Undergraduate Catalog Graduate School Students enrolling in the Graduate School will enter under one of the four categories described below. Regular Admission Applicants are granted regular admission to the Graduate School if they have met the minimum degree program requirements of grade point average and standardized test score [44 on the Miller Analogies Test (MAT), 800 on the Aptitude Test of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) or 450 on the Graduate Man- agement Admission Test (GMAT)]. Provisional Admission Applicants who do not fully meet the requirements for regular admission may be considered for provi- sional admission. The following criteria must be met: An undergraduate degree from a regionally accredited college or university with an under- graduate major in, or prerequisites for, the planned field of study where applicable, and An undergraduate grade point average of at least 2.2, and A score on the MAT of no less than 27, or a score on the Aptitude Test of the GRE of no less than 700. A student satisfying nine semester hours of coursework with no grade of less than a B may be admit- ted to regular status. Otherwise, the student is terminated from enrollment. Transient Admission A full-time graduate student in good academic standing at another institution may enroll for one semes- ter as a transient student. The regular institution must provide written authorization for the student to enroll under this status. Copies of transcripts and standardized test scores are not required. Non-Degree Admission Applicants interested in studying for personal enrichment or for job-related requirements are admitted under this status. While a student may enroll for an unlimited number of courses in the non-degree status, he/she must be fully aware that a masters degree is not awarded at the completion of any number of hours in this status. Only nine semester hours of coursework taken in this status may apply to a Masters degree at Albany State University. Special Admission Albany State University students with senior standing may register for graduate courses if each of the following conditions are met: 1. The student has an overall 3.0 (or better) grade point average. 2. The Vice-President for Academic Affairs approves the academic departments recommenda- tions for the student to enroll,,in graduate courses. (Such approval is granted on a semester- by-semester basis; continued enrollment is not provided.) 3. The student limits his/her graduate enrollment to a total of twelve (12) semester hours of study. No more than nine (9) semester hours of graduate study may be undertaken in a given semester. 4. During the semester in which graduate enrollment is allowed, the student's registration is lim- ited to a total of fifteen (15) semester hours (combined graduate and undergraduate hours). Q (0 H n > SS m Undergraduate students from other institutions are not admitted to graduate studies at Albany State University.
