Major Program

Lower

Division

Requirements

To enter, students must complete 18 units of 100 and 200 division history courses. One hundred and

200 division courses introduce four groupings of history course offerings: the history of the Americas;

European history; the history of Africa, the Middle East, and Asia; and Global/Comparative history.

Students entering 400 division seminars should have an appropriate background in 100, 200 division

and/or

300 division history. Normally, students should complete 45 units (or equivalent) prior to

enrolment in any upper division history course.

Students should plan lower division work with upper division requirements

in mind. The program

offers a

wide range of courses in four lower division groups, providing introduction to a broad

curriculum. A careful selection

of lower division courses lays the foundation for specialization in

specific upper division areas. For this reason, complete at least one course from at least three of the

four lower division courses.

Hum 495-5 Honors Essay

A research and writing project culminating in the completion of a

substantial essay on a humanities topic. Students are required to make a

formal presentation and defence of their essay.

Prerequisite: This course

is restricted to students in the honors program.

Students

should have completed all of the lower division requirements for

the honors program, and at least two 300 level humanities courses. Before

registering for the course, students

should have the signature of a faculty

member who is willing to supervise their project. Approval of the

humanities chair is

also required. Students may take this course

concurrently with Hum 490 or upon completion of Hum 490.

---

RATIONALE:

Hum 495 is currently graded on a pass/fail basis. This grading system has proven to be

problematic. There is a great disparity in the quality of work produced by students who

have taken the course in recent years, and

in their level of engagement with the course.

Some are content to get by with minimal effort, and do the least amount of work possible

to achieve a passing grade. Students themselves have frequently complained that the

pass/fail system is unfair.

Additionally. HUM 495 has become increasingly difficult to mount in recent years, since it

is taught

by an already over-burdened faculty on a volunteer basis.

With the proposed change of The Graduating

Seminar to the Honors Essay, students

who

,qualify

for the Honors Program will be required to write their substantial research

and writing project as HUM 495-5 Honors Essay. The essay will be graded as other

Humanities courses are, and will be taught by faculty as part of a normal course load.

Students enrolled in the proposed Honors program will be required to take HUM 495-5.

Effective term and year: September 2011

their interests

in Humanities beyond the Major program. All Humanities students, spread out

over three campuses would be eligible to apply for entrance into

the

Honors program.

African Economic Development: Theory and Practice

Instructor: Morten Jerven

Prerequisites: IS 220 and 45 units. Students who have taken IS 429 under this topic may not

take this course for further credit.

Course description:

This course introduces important patterns of economic development in Africa with an emphasis

on the post-colonial period. Basic economic development theory, and the practical application of

these in African economic development will be explored. We will see how dominant theoretical

paradigms influenced the formulation

of development policy in Africa and how in turn these led

to rethinking development theory. We will explore how theory and practice changed through

time and place. The course gives a perspective on how scholarly 'discovery' and focus translates

into policy formulation, and further

how such policies perform and has performed in an African

context.

The course also invites students to explain why certain policies were adopted in

specific countries.

In Linguistics, \ve are working to make the First Nations Language courses more visible at SFU.

In doing so, we would like to consolidate all of the courses about First Nations languages under

one name (course prefix) and one departmental jurisdiction. We are proposing to change nine

LING courses to FNLG courses. In addition, we are proposing

to make modifications to four

LANG courses, as explained in the attached document. Because the LTI is listed under

Linguistics

in the current calendar entry, we will make motions to have the changes made, in

conjunction with a memo from the Director

of the L TI supporting the changes.

about them, I would appreciate it

if you could send me a memo approving these changes.

as Special Topics II.
