7. That the Faculty of Business Administration, as newly constituted, be

charged to submit by January 1, 1983 a report to Senate through the

Academic Planning Committee giving:

a)

detailed recommendations for undergraduate and graduate program

modification and development (if any); and

b)

detailed recommendations regarding faculty staffing patterns and

priorities.

8. That the existing BUEC courses continue to be offered jointly by the

Department of Economics and the Faculty of Business Administration, with

the Chairmen of the two Undergraduate Curriculum Committees or their

designates acting as a Committee overseeing their scheduling and offering.

9. That the existing joint Ph.D. program in Economics and Commerce remain as

presently offered (i.e. housed in Economics), with one member of the

Graduate Studies Committee nominated by, and from, Busines Administration,

and fields in Business offered as specialty options."

Note: It is intended to continue to apply Faculty of Arts requirements (e.g.

group requirements) to Business Administration degree requirements until

such time as the Faculty of Business Administration has formulated and

received approval of its own requirements.

C. Hoyt was invited to join the assembly to respond to questions.

Senate undertook, general discussion of the proposal with J. Munro point-

ing out that faculty status would enable the Department to develop more

effectively and R. Brown adding that existing programs would be fully protected

by joint appointments. C. Jones supported the recommendation, while T. Arrott

favored the concept of a School of Business Administration. F. Einstein was

critical of the effect of a very small faculty within the University structure.

K. Rieckhoff suggested that, as a number of departments are expanding,

consideration might be given to establishment of a Faculty of Professional

Programs to replace the Faculty of Interdisciplinary Studies for the housing

of such entities. W. Cleveland agreed development of a faculty would allow

pursuit of faculty interests and fuller development of curriculum tailored to

the needs of students, but he was concerned about adding another faculty. R.

Holmes contended that faculty status is necessar to rnee.t the demands of students

for quality education in Business Administration.

C. Gutman and E. Fattah were invited to join the assembly to respond

to queries.

T. Calvert drew Senate's attention to his memorandum which had accom-

panied the proposal, which amongst other issues, suggested that external

funding would be sought rather than requesting New and Emergent Program

Funding from UCBC. Library holdings are considered to be inadequate although

some core materials are available.

Some Senators felt that the prerequisite requirements were unrealistic

and E. Fattab stated that adjustments could be made when the clientele and

backgrounds are known. G. Gutman expressed the opinion that successful

candidates in the program will require a solid base of psychology and social

sciences.

Question was called, and a vote taken.

Revjsj6ns to Guidelines for Program

Review: Senate Committee on Acdethic Planning

Moved by J. Munro, seconded by K. Okuda,

"That Senate approve, as set forth in S.81-157, the

revised Guidelines for Program Review, as follows:

REVISIONS TO GUIDELINES FOR PROGRAM REVIEW.

As revised in Paper 5.80-166, the Senate Committee on Academic Planning has

three major terms of reference. The first of these, the implementation of

a system of academic planning, is presently being addressed by a series of

planning task forces. The second and third involve reviewing and recommend-

ing to Senate concerning proposals for new programs or major modifications

S

to existing programs and the review of existing programs for the purposes of

assessment, expansion, curtailment or discontinuance. In Paper S.81-81,

Senate approved guidelines for the review of programs by SCAP. Subsequent

expressions of concern by members of the Committee and other members of Senate

over the impact of increasing fiscal constraints on the operating of existing

academic programs have led to the following proposal to revise the Guidelines

for Program Review. It is also intended that SCAP will revert to the practice

of closing its meetings during the final consideration and voting on program

proposals.

1.

According to the definition of Universities Council, "A program is a

sequence of credit courses leading to a University credential. A cre-

dential is a diploma, certificate, degree or other type of official

recognition awarded to a student by a University."

2.

Decisions concerning whether proposed changes to existing programs are

'major,' and therefore fall within the terms of reference of SCAP, will

be made jointly by the Secretary of Senate and the Chairman of the Senate

Committee on Academic Planning.

3.

New Programs are to be brought forward for approval in principle well

in advance of detailed program preparation. The purpose of seeking in-

principle approval is to guide departments and individual faculty members

away from program planning that is inconsistent with long-term University

goals and resources. In-principle approval does not bind SCAP to recom-

mending full approval under 6. below.

Programs brought forward for approval in-principle shall:

a) Have received endorsement by the Faculty and, in the case of graduate

---

?

SF

programs by the Senate Graduate Studies Committee;

b)

Be accompanied by information establishing the need for the

program and describing its impact on, and relationship to,

existing programs;

c)

Be accompanied by an outline of anticipated development of the

department over the next few years;

d)

Be accompanied by information concerning the objectives of the

program, an outline of its structure, enrolment estimates, and

resources required.

4. When a program is given in-principle approval, SCAP shall assign one

of the following priority classifications to the program, based on

3a) - d), above: 'essential,' 'important,' 'desirable.'

5. Once approval in-principle has been given, detailed program planning

can commence. Liaison should be maintained with the Office of the Vice-

President, Academic and Analytical Studies during the program planning

phase. The information that is required for consideration of new pro-

grams at the UCBC

level

is contained in the Program Coordinating Committee

Guidelines. Program proposals should be prepared following the topical

outline used in the PCC Guidelines. It should be noted that outside

consultation and review are expected in the case of significant new

programs.

6. When a program that has received in-principle approval is presented

for full approval by the Senate Committee on Academic Planning, the

following information will be inctuded:

a)

A statement on the academic merit and importance of the program and

its impact on other programs in the University.

b)

Enrolment projections.

c)

. Staffing and other operating budget requirements. The Dean of the

aculty may be requested to indicate the sources of required new

expenditures.

d)

Space requirements.

e)

Equipment requirements.

In considering its recommendations, the Senate Committee on Academic

Planning will follow the 'Criteria for Program Assessment' contained in

Paper S.80-98 (see Appendix A to this memorandum). The responsibility of

the Senate Committee on Academic Planning is to assess the academic merit

of. programs but not to make a decision as to whether funds should actually

be spent on the program. However, SCAP does have a role in assessing the

reasonableness of estimated resource needs of new programs. Also, this

information does interact with considerations of academic merit.

?

7. ?

The Senate Committee on Academic Planning will recommend to the President

on the priorities to be attached to new programs as required (usually by

March 31) by the UCBC Program Coordinating Committee.

?

8.

?

The Committee will, by January 31 each year, recommend priorities for the

implementation of all new programs approved by Senate, Board, and

Universities Council and scheduled for implementation in the next fiscal

year.

S.M. 7/12/81

?

9. ?

In recognition of the deadlines of the UC]3C Program Coordinating

Committee, the annual deadline for receipt of new program submissions

for final approval by the Senate Committee on Academic Planning will.

be October 20.

?

10. ?

The Senate Committee on Academic Planning may initiate the review of

an existing program: a) on its own motion;

b)

at the request of the Vice-President, Academic

or the appropriate Dean;

c)

as requested by Senate.

The Committee shall, when it initiates a review, approve the composition

and terms of reference of the review committee, including the distribution

of the committee's report. The review committee may include persons

from outside the University. The criteria attached in Appendix A will

guide the review of existing programs.

?

11. ?

The Program Guidelines of the UCBC Program Coordinating Committee are

attached for information, Appendix B.

The reason for the suggested revision in item 10 is to make the proce-

dure for initiating, carrying out, and reporting the review of existing

programs more workable. The provision of the UC]3C Program Coordinating

Committee Program Guidelines is intended to make this information more

generally available to the University."

SQuestion was called, and a vote taken.
