Special Education

 

 

 

 

 

5a

Program Addition

 

 

Autism Spectrum Disorder Official Certificate Program

[link unavailable]

[GS] Tabled.  Department needs to file necessary course revision forms to reflect changes in prerequisites necessitated by adoption of program.

[EDPS] No action taken because proposal had been tabled at Graduate Studies Curriculum.

 

 Approved by Faculty Senate 2/9/09

ADDENDUM: delete list as of February 8, 2009.  Deferred to consideration on 2/23/09

Note: if a course is still offered, but under a new designator and/or number, that is noted here.  In this case, the course itself will be retained under the new designator and/or number, but the old designator and/or number removed from the catalogue.  For instance, PE 592 is now EXS 592, so the course will be listed in the catalogue under EXS 592, and PE 592 will be removed from the catalogue.

If I have received no information about courses on the list and the right-hand column is blank, the course will be removed from the catalogue.
