Modify list of CCUPEKA social science and humanities courses for KIN majors (6 units)
Rationale
- current list contains eliminated courses, and courses with extensive pre-
requisites outside of the program.
-
revised list will incorporate more SFU designated Breadth Humanities (B-HUM)
and Social Science (B-SOC) Courses, allowing students to meet both the SFU and
CCUPEKA requirements with the same course. SFU requires 6 units ofB-HUM and 6
units ofB-SOC.
- A secondary list will include non-SFU designated Breadth courses.
FROM:
The current calendar listing is included below p 189
UnspeCified and Partially Specified
Electives
A total of 23 elective units are required. Of these 23,
six units must be from the social science and
humanities course list (see
"Social Science and
Humanities Course List, Breadth Designated
Courses" below) to meet CCUPEKA certification
requirements. These 23 units must also include
courses that will satiSfy the University breadth
requirements of six units each
of designated
humanities breadth (B-Hum) and social science
breadth (B-Soc). However, courses from the social
science and humanities course list that have B-Hum .
or B-Soc designation may be used to satisfy both
requirements. 23 units

Unspecified and Partially Specified
Electives
Additional elective units are required to meet the minimum degree requirement of 120
units. Of these, six units must be from the social science and humanities course list (see
"Social Science and Humanities Course List" below) to meet CCUPEKA certification
requirements. These elective units must also include courses that will satisfy the
University breadth requirements
of six units each of designated humanities breadth (B-
Hum) and social science breadth (B-Soc). However, courses from the social science and
humanities course list that have B-Hum
or B-Soc designation may be used to satisfy
both the CCUPEKA and
SFU requirements.

DESCRIPTION
An
in depth treatment of neurophysiology. Synaptic inputs and
cell interactions in the spinal cord are
used
to illustrate the
general principles of interaction in the nervous system. Other
topics
include central and peripheral motor control, the
vestibular system and the visual system.

RATIONALE
DESCRIPTION
An in-depth study of the neurophysiology of movement.
Illustrates general principles of neural control by exploring
specific
movement
tasks
including
standing,
walking,
reaching/grasping,
and
eye
movements.
PREREQUISITE
Kin 306 or BISe 305 and Kin 326
The new proposed description better reflects the revised material presented in this course. This modification of the course
content is based on the fact that a new instructor is taking over the primary role of teaching this course due to faculty retirement.
This new instructor's expertise is slightly different than the previous instructor. In addition, it is hoped the new description and
modified course content will entice a greater number of students to enroll given its new applied approach to the neural control of
movement (I.e. focusing on specific movement
tasks
to teach neural control principles).
Does this course replicate the content of a previously 3pproved course to such an extem thai studenu should not receive Credil for both courses?
If so. this should be noted in the
prerequisite.

based
laboratory course that applies theoretical
knowledge
to
industrial situations. Instruction will be provided
in proposal development. evaluation techniques. and
report
writing. Students will complete projects in human-machine
interaction.
occupational
ergonomics
and
industrial
design.
PREREQUISITE
KIN 180W and KIN 380 plus
any
2 of the following: KIN 381.
KIN 382, KIN 481.IAT333,IAT334. IAT 432. or
KIN 4SS-, KIN 498", KIN
49~
("if ergonomics related)
We are attempting
to
allow students to take Kin 488 earlier in their program. while still assuring they have sufficient background
in ergonomiCS.
Does this coune replicate the content of a previously approved coune to such an extent that studenlS should not receive credit for both counes?
If so. this should be
noted
In
the prerequisite.
201 (j - January
Effective term and yen ______________________________________________________________________ _
Id..
JANUARY 20011
Rationale: The admission process has been streamlined to allow earlier entry
into the program, this will allow students to enter classes with seat reservations
or those in a Kinesiology program.
With the introduction
of the Biomedical Physiology Minor, we feel
that a shorter list of Kinesiology specific upper division courses should be
targeted for the Kinesiology Minor.
1. Change in application process
2.
Decrease in lower division core courses, increase in electives
3.
Limitation of Upper division electives to Kinesiology Specific courses
FROM:
Kinesiology Minor Program (09-10 Calendar, p 190)
Application Requirements
Application requires
.
• completion of KIN 105 or 205 or 208, and KIN 142
and 143 with a minimum grade
of C- in each course
• completion of two of KIN 110, 201, 207 or 241 with a
minimum grade
of C- in.each
•
submission of a program approval form to the
undergraduate advisor.
Admission is competitive. The admission GPA is
calculated each term on the five required courses.
If
one or more have been duplicated (repeated), grades
from all course attempts will be used equally to
calculate kinesiology's admission GPA.
Program Requirements
There is a maximum number of allow"ble transferable
unitS that count towards the minor program from any
other institution, including the Open Leaming Agency.

TIME
New course proposal: A new course MBB 242- Introductory
Genomics, is being proposed. A Notice of Intent for a new Genomics
B.SC. program has been approved by SCUS. MBB 242 correspondS to
the Introductory course in this program and would be a required
course for all students in the Genomics Program, though other
students with the appropriate prerequisites
may choose to take it as
an elective. When the Genomics B.SC. program becomes functional it
is antiCipated that MBB 242 may be replaced by a GENO course.
course Change Forms: Thirteen course change forms are being
submitted for 400 level MBB courses. These are primarily
"housekeeping"
changes; getting rid of old terminology (anything
Bich and the inclusion of Bisc 331 which no longer exists), a few
(minor)
changes in pre-requisite courses, one title change and one
condensed course description to conform to the SO to 60 word limit.
MBB 402: old terminology deletion
MBB 421: old terminology deletion
MBB 422: old terminology deletion
MBB 423: old terminology deletion and pre-reQuisite change
MBS 430: old terminology deletion
MBB 435: old terminology deletion
MBB 437: old terminology deletion, shortened course description, title change
MBB 436: old terminology deletion and pre.reQulsite change
MBB 438: old terminology deletion
MBB 441: old terminology deletion
MBB 442: old terminology deletion and pre.reQuislte change
MBB 443: old terminology deletion

RATIONALE FOR INTRODUCTION OF THIS COURSE
A Notice of Intent for a new cenomics B.SC. program has been approved by seus. MBB 242
corresponds to the introductory course in this program and would be a required course for all
students in the Cenomics Program, though other students with the appropriate prerequisites
mav choose
to take it as an elective. The initial oHering will be done on a trial basis, to fine
tune the content and workshOp exercises. When the Cenomics B.Sc. program becomes
functional
it is anticipated that MBS 242 will be replaced by a CENO course.

DESCRIPTION
Signal transduction, the conversion of an extracellular signal into a
cellular response,
is
presently one of the most intensively studied
aspects of biology. Signaling pathways control a wide range of
cellular processes and the characterization of these pathways is having
a major impact on cell biology, developmental biology, biotechnology
and medicine. In this course. we shall be examining the current
literature in this rapidly developing field. We will look at how a
combination of biochemistry. cell biology and genetics is being used
to investigate the diverse mechanisms used in cell signaling. and
examine how the various approaches to studying signal transduction
complement each other. Classes will be in the form of lectures and
student
presentations.
