Course Description (for Calendar). Attach a course outline to this proposal.
A specific topic within the field of Environment not examined in depth in regular courses. This
course will provide students with understanding, perspective and experience in emerging and
important areas of environment.
Prerequisite(s): None
Corequisite: None
Special Instructions: None
That is, does this course replicate the content of a previously approved course to such an
extent that students should not receive credit for both courses. If so, this should be noted in
the pre-requisite.
Course(s) to be dropped if this course is approved: None
----_
..
_--_._----_._---------_.
Rationale for Introduction of this Course:
This will be a broad environmental course that will be interdisciplinary and may cross several
disCiplines and units within the Faculty.
Special topic courses may also be used to pilot
scus 2006
\/3
courses that may in future become a reg'.llar course. Courses will be offered as demand and
resources support.
Scheduling and Registration Information:
Indicate effective semester/year course would be first offered and planned frequency of
offering thereafter
Summer 2010; potential to be offered semesterly as different topics.
Will this be a required or elective course in the curriculum? Elective
What is the probable enrolment when offered? 35 - 50
Which of your present CFL faculty have the expertise to offer this course? All
Are there any proposed student fees associated with this course other than tuition
fees? (if so, attach mandatory supplementary fee approval form)
No
-------.--- ------_.----_._----_. __

Resource Implications:
Note: Senate has approved (5.93-11) that no new course should be approved by Senate until
funding has been committed for necessary library materials. Each new course proposal must
be accompanied by a library report and, if appropriate, confirmation that funding
arrangements have
been addressed.
Campus where course will be taught:
Burnaby
Library report status: Attached
Provide details on how existing instructional resources will be redistributed to
accommodate this new course.
For instance, will another course be eliminated or will the frequency of offering of other
courses
be reduced; are there changes in pedagogical style or class sizes that allow for this
additional course offering?
New Faculty courses will be aligned with developing and redeveloping program
directions within FENV.
List any outstanding resource issues to be addressed prior to implementation
(space, laboratory equipment, etc.):
