Overview of proposals to limit double‐ counting credits between A&S non‐interdisciplinary majors

There are two relevant A&S rules:

• A. 15‐credit rule for A&S minors

“Each minor must, however, include at least 15 credit hours that are being counted solely toward the minor.” Vanderbilt Catalog, p. 72.

• B. 6‐credit double‐counting limitation between an

A&S interdisciplinary major and an A&S non‐ interdisciplinary major “Students may combine an interdisciplinary major with a major in one of the recognized fields listed at the beginning of this chapter. Upon approval of the Committee on Individual Programs and the student’s adviser, (a) as many as 6 hours may be counted as part of both the interdisciplinary major and the second major . . . “ Vanderbilt Catalog, p. 71.

Problem: How should the A&S faculty reasonably limit double‐counting credits between non‐ interdisciplinary majors? Motion tabled at December, 2010, A&S Faculty Meeting: Each major must include at least 24 credit hours that are being counted solely toward the A&S non‐interdisciplinary major a.k.a. the CASP 24‐credit “floor” rule or the “strong” version or interpretation. A&S, at present, has no rule regarding the number

• f credits that a student may double‐count between

two A&S non‐interdisciplinary majors, which means that there is no limit to double‐counting credits between two such majors. Why is a rule advisable?

From the A&S Registrar, Molly Thompson:

Here are the possibly problematic combinations: ASTD/HART: 9 hours HART may count toward ASTD CCIV/HART: 9 hours HART may count toward CCIV CCIV/PHIL: 6 hours PHIL may count toward CCIV CMST/ENGL‐W: 6 hours ENGL may count toward CMST CMST/PHIL: 9 hours PHIL may count toward CMST CMST/SOC: 9 hours SOC may count toward CMST CMST/PSCI: 6 hours PSCI may count toward CMST CMST/PSY: 6 hours PSY may count toward CMST GER /xx: German Studies major requires 6 hours in “German text” and 6 hours in “German content,” none of which are defined. That is possibly 6 to up to 12 hours of double‐counting action. HIST/CLAS: 21 hours CLAS may count toward HIST HIST/ECON: 12 hours ECON may count toward HIST HIST/RLST: 6 hours RLST may count toward HIST MATH‐2/xx: 6 hours outside the department (For MATH/ECON, as you may know, a student could double‐ count 9 hours.) PSY‐R/xx: 6 hours BME, CS, EECE, MATH, PHIL, ANTH, BSCI, SOC may count toward PSY major RLST/CLAS: 9 hours CLAS may count toward RLST RLST/HIST: 21 hours HIST may count toward RLST RLST/PHIL: 12 hours PHIL may count toward RLST

Goals of such a rule limiting double counting credits between A&S non‐ interdisciplinary majors:

• 1. Set reasonable limit on double‐counting.
• 2. Ensure that students take a unique set of

courses to fulfill major.

• 3. Protect integrity of major.
• 4. Prevent it from being more difficult to

earn a minor than a second major.

First attempt at a rule (April‐May 2010):

Extend the 6‐credit limitation between an interdisciplinary major and a non‐interdisciplinary major to two A&S non‐interdisciplinary majors. Approved by CASP and FC, not approved by the A&S faculty.

Second attempt at a rule (November‐ December, 2010):

CASP has proposed, using the 15‐credit rule for minors as a model, a 24‐credit “floor” for each A&S non‐interdisciplinary major. “Each major must include at least 24 credit hours that are being counted solely toward the A&S non‐ interdisciplinary major. It should be noted that adoption of this rule would apply also to the non‐ interdisciplinary major for those students who combine such a major with an interdisciplinary major." This is the "strong" interpretation or version of the 24‐credit minimum requirement. Approved by CASP and FC, tabled at December A&S Faculty Meeting.

Revised version of the 24‐credit minimum rule, as proposed by Professors David Cliffel and John Rafter after the December A&S Faculty Meeting: “Each major must include a minimum of 24 credit hours that are not being counted as part of the 24 credit hour minimum toward another major.” This is the "weak" interpretation or version of the 24‐credit minimum requirement.

Revised or alternative version of the 24‐credit minimum rule as proposed by Professors Gieri Simonett and John Rafter on March 1, 2011: “Each major must include a minimum of 27 credit hours that are not being counted as part of the 27 credit hour minimum toward another major.” This is version 2 of the "weak" interpretation, with a 27‐credit minimum requirement.

How do the three versions satisfy the goals?

6‐credit double‐ counting limit Strong version Weak versions Reasonable limit on double‐ counting yes some no Unique set of courses some yes no Integrity of major some yes no Minor harder than second major no no yes

Three concerns have been expressed about the “strong” interpretation:

One objection that has been raised against the strong version is that it would "seriously limit double majoring." Yet, according to the A&S Registrar, Molly Thompson, only one of the most popular double‐ major combinations would be affected by the strong version (ECON/MATH).

In the five‐year period from 06F‐11S, our most popular double‐major combinations on average were as follows: ECON/PSCI ECON/ES (Engineering Science) H&OD/SPAN HIST/PSCI ECON/SPAN ECON/H&OD ECON/MATH PSCI/SPAN PHIL/PSCI MHS/SPAN MATH/PHYS PSY/SPAN MHS/PSY ECON/ENGL ECON/PHIL ENGL/PSCI CMST/SPAN MCB/SPAN PSY/SOC ENGL/PSY

ENGL/SPAN ENGL/HIST Each of the majors listed above requires at least 30 hours. With three exceptions, the non‐interdisciplinary double‐major combinations do not have any courses that can be double‐counted. The three exceptions are the ECON/MATH combination (which causes problems only with the Econ/Math subprogram II combination, a combination that has been declared once since the introduction of subprogram II); the MATH/PHYS combination (in which six hours of PHYS credit can count toward the MATH II major, but no MATH credits may count toward Physics); and the PSY/SOC combination (in which six hours of SOC credit can count toward the PSY‐R and PSY‐H majors, but no PSY credits may count toward Sociology). Therefore, with all of these double‐majors except ECON/MATH II, students have had no problems—nor could they have any problems— completing at least 24 hours specific toward each major. As we have already shown, the

• ne student who had the ECON/MATH II combination did not have a problem

completing 24 hours specific toward each of those majors, either.

A second concern, from the Mathematics department, is that at present students are able to earn a double major in Economics and Mathematics by taking 30 credits in Economics and 29 credits in Mathematics, but, if the CASP recommendation were to be approved, this would no longer be possible.

This is true under some very limited circumstances (6 conditions would have to be met simultaneously) and, even then, the Economics/Mathematics program 2 double major would fall just one Mathematics credit short.

The 6 conditions: Student chooses Math program II; and satisfies ECON statistics requirement with MATH 218 and 219; and did not take ECON 150 or MATH 218L; and has exactly 29 MATH credits; and has taken no additional MATH or ECON courses at all; and uses ECON to satisfy MATH‐Program 2 non‐MATH courses.

It is very unlikely, according to the A&S Registrar’s Office, that all 6 conditions would be met at the same time.

• ne of the alternatives to the ECON 150 option. Hence, only 3 hours of MATH 218 and

219 count in the ECON major, since they are, together, taken instead of ECON 150.

35 – 12 = 23 33 – 9 = 24

A student would fulfill the requirements for an Economics/Mathematics double major under both weak versions without any additional coursework.

In response to this concern, Dean Dever, in consultation with Faculty Council and with the A&S Parliamentarian, has added a note of clarification to the motion:

The A&S faculty encourages students to petition the Administrative Committee if s/he is double‐majoring in Economics and Mathematics and finds herself/himself one credit short of fulfilling both majors because of the 24‐ credit “floor” rule. The A&S Registrar shall keep a record of the number of petitions received and granted by the Administrative Committee that are related to this rule.

A third concern, from the Mathematics department, is that another A&S department or program might add Mathematics courses to its list of required courses that count toward the major, thereby making it more difficult to double major in that discipline and Mathematics.

THE Department of Chemistry seeks to provide a sound education in the fundamentals of modern chemistry as well as exposure to cutting-edge research and contemporary instru- mentation in the field. This is accomplished by providing students with a solid background in the disciplines of organic, analytical, inorganic, biological, and physical chemistry. The core courses in these areas, which are supported by a variety of practical experimental experiences in the laboratory, pro- vide students with the skills needed to think critically about

• chemistry. After these core courses, students delve deeper

into an area of their choice. Recognizing the importance of research, which integrates and makes sense of our collective body of knowledge, we encourage students to participate in undergraduate research. The chemistry major at Vanderbilt University meets the guidelines for the American Chemical Society approved program of study in chemistry.

Program of Concentration in Chemistry

The chemistry program is organized into four parts. The first part is a general chemistry course sequence (Chem 102a–102b and 104a–104b or AP credit) to serve as an entry point into the major. The second part consists of foundation courses in the five major disciplines of chemistry: analytical (210), bio- chemistry (BSCI 220), inorganic (203), organic (220a–220b

• r 218a–218b), and physical (230 or 231). The third part of

the chemistry major consists of completing 8 credit hours of laboratory past 104a–104b. Four hours are from laboratory courses (219a–219b, 212a, and 236) associated with foundation

• courses. There are also 4 credit hours of a capstone laboratory

(295a–295b) designed to provide advanced laboratory experi-

• ence. The fourth part of the major consists of completing a min-

imum of 6 credit hours of in-depth chemistry courses. These in-depth courses build upon the content of foundation courses

Other in-depth chemistry courses are Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering 223 and 225, and Earth and Environmental Sciences 260, and any 300-level chemistry lecture courses. (Qualifjed seniors interested in 300- level courses must obtain approval from the course instructor, their adviser, and the director of graduate studies in chemistry. Further details are found in the Academic Policies for the College of Arts and Science.) A maximum of 3 credit hours of chemistry research (282) may be counted as in-depth chemis- try course hours. Additional math courses, such as Math 175 and Math 218, are highly recommended for the chemistry major.

Options for Concentration in Chemistry

In-depth chemistry courses can be chosen so as to define a focus area within chemistry. Students should consult with their major adviser about focus area options, or to formulate an individualized focus area option. Further descriptions of these options and other recommended courses can be found in the chemistry major handbook on the chemistry depart- ment homepage. Chemical Biology Focus. Tie role of chemical processes in biological systems is fundamental to chemical biology. Tie journal Nature Chemical Biology defjnes chemical biology as “the use of chemistry to advance a molecular understanding of biology and the harnessing of biology to advance chemistry.” Biological chemistry builds upon the disciplines of medicinal chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, genetics, bioorganic and organic chemistry. Suggested in-depth chemistry electives: 202, 220c, 224, 226, 282. Chemical Sciences Focus. Tiis option provides a broad foundation of chemistry, permitting the greatest fmexibility in future career pathways and providing an excellent preparation for positions in chemical industry and for graduate programs in chemistry. Suggested in-depth chemistry electives: 211, 230, 231, 282. Environmental Chemistry Focus. Environmental chemis- try concerns the chemical phenomena that occur in nature. Environmental chemistry spans atmospheric, aquatic, and soil chemistry with a reliance on analytical chemistry for methods of

• analysis. Environmental chemistry can be applied to the under-

standing of issues such as ground water pollution, wastewater treatment, ozone depletion, and greenhouse gas emissions. Sug- gested in-depth chemistry electives: 211, 230, 231, 282, EES 260. Materials Chemistry Focus. Materials chemistry is concerned with designing and synthesizing new materials with specifjc useful properties and determining the relationships between physical properties and the composition and structure of these new materials. Materials chemistry encompasses all size regimes from bulk to nanoscale. Synthetic chemistry (inorganic and

• rganic), physical chemistry, and analytical chemistry are all

important components of this fjeld. Suggested in-depth chemis- try electives: 211, 222, 230, 231, 235, 240, 282, 338, 350.

Minor in Chemistry

The minor in chemistry requires 18 hours of course work, including 4 hours from 102b and 104b or AP credit, and 14 hours selected from any of the courses acceptable for the major in chemistry.

In response to this concern, Dean Dever, in consultation with Faculty Council and with the A&S Parliamentarian, has added a second note of clarification to the motion:

The Committee on Educational Programs (CEP) shall carefully review the impact of proposed program revisions on popular double‐major combinations, especially with regards to the 24‐credit “floor” rule.
