History and Objectives: Hunter College’s Business Certificate was approved as part of the Chancellor’s University Report, October 29, 2018. The Certificate offers Hunter students foundational exposure to business theories and skills, including hands-on professional work experience. This combination of theories, skills, and experience will complement students’ strong liberal arts education, and increase employability and early career success. The intent is to have the first students (those who have already completed most of the requirements to date) complete the Certificate in summer 2020 as part of a “soft launch”, and to roll out the Certificate more broadly in fall 2020 While working on roll-out specifics and addressing student questions, it became clear that elements of the original proposal would benefit from being updated, clarified and streamlined. In addition, the original proposal features academic restrictions that would significantly limit eligibility. This runs counter to the Certificate’s intended role in providing a wide range of Hunter students with access to business-related knowledge areas and skills. It appears the proposal’s GPA requirements, along with the application section of the original proposal, used the Cooperman Fellowship as a starting point. The Cooperman Fellowship is highly selective, and as such is not a good basis for this Certificate. The objectives of these proposed changes is to resolve these inconsistencies and improve clarity, in hopes of a smoother student and administrative roll-out.

Four of the courses in this certificate (ACC 22500, ACC 23000, ECO 26100, and ECO 49700) cannot fulfill requirements toward the BS in Accounting, the BA in Economics or minors in Accounting or Economics.

Curriculum

The certificate program includes three required 3-credit courses, plus one elective drawn from existing courses at the college and a 3-credit capstone course.

The capstone course is intended to complement an internship or other professional work experience. In cases where students are unable to find appropriate work experience, students may instead complete a structured paper using both primary and secondary research. This paper should address a current

A student may substitute a different course for the electives listed above with written approval of the Director of the Business Certificate.

Rationale: A single paragraph of justification. 1) Eligibility, Application, Curriculum

The proposed changes realign the Certificate with its intended purpose and with Hunter’s mission to “open doors of opportunity through education”, by expanding eligibility for the Certificate beyond the top academic tier. The other changes will resolve areas of ambiguity as we approach roll-out.

2) Curriculum i. The language regarding applicability of Certificate courses to Economics and Accounting majors has been removed. The

catalog entries for these courses, as well as the syllabi and major maps, clearly state which courses do or do not count towards the major. Also, we want students to understand that while the Certificate’s home is in the Economics and Accounting department, it is open to all students. Including language specific to Economics and Accounting majors/minors could confuse this issue for students from other disciplines.

ii. The language regarding double-dipping for Accounting students has been removed. The Certificate should not be defining restrictions on other programs. It is the prerogative of each program to determine what can or cannot be counted for a

















[Type here]

major or minor, and each program will have their own views on the appropriateness of Certificate courses. These should be addressed by each program in their own program requirements, rather than by the Certificate.

3) Electives The inclusion of Creating Value through Marketing as a Certificate elective acknowledges the central significance of marketing to businesses of all kinds. Also, the current list of approved electives is by no means an exhaustive list of all business-related courses offered at Hunter. Adding a mechanism to approve these on a case-by-case basis would allow the Certificate to consider accommodating these and other appropriate electives as Hunter’s Catalog evolves.

Program Learning Outcomes: Students who complete the Certificate program should be able to: • Describe the fundamental issues involved in business and management • Apply critical thinking skills to problem solving • Understand and use fundamental quantitative skills • Apply skills learned in the program to analyze business problems Consultation Statement: a) Is the proposed change likely to affect other Departments or Programs?

• Course Description:

[Type here]

A. A brief description for the College Catalog. How have Arab women contributed to Arabic popular culture, film, theatre, and literature? In this course, students examine diverse cultural works by Arab women to consider how they use creative expression to voice their perspectives on girls’ lives, relationships between women and men, women’s roles in families and society, and challenges to gender inequality. Across the semester students engage with Arabic cultural work by women – all in English – covering an array of genres, such as fiction, graphic novels, theatre, poetry, lyrics, or film. Engaging with these works, students elevate their style of writing about culture and experiment in creative genres. Students from any cultural background or gender are welcome.

B. Writing Requirement: the number of papers and their approximate length, the extent to which library or electronic research is expected, or a statement of other writing requirements. Any absence of a formal writing requirement must be specified. Final Project (20%): Determined by the professor’s approval, students select from (A) a 6+ page analysis on

approved topics related to cultural representations of social themes by Arab women, building on the midterm and quizzes; (B) a 6+ page “creative non-fiction” personal-intellectual essay responding to course material, building on the informal memoir exercise; or (C) a practicum, such as translation, transcription, or annotated compilation of cultural work by Arabic women, accompanied by a 2-page literary criticism preface that couches the work in themes from the course.

• Rationale: (Do not remove questions)

A. Nature of the proposed course: 1. If the proposed course is part of a new academic program, refer to the overall objectives of the program (i.e., on a

cover sheet or Appendix) 2. If the proposed course is part of an established academic program, present a rationale that includes:

a. The advantages offered by the proposal and/or the needs met by the course (i.e., student, departmental, community, job market needs); This course fills a current gap in the ARB offerings, many of which deal with women and gender issues, but none of which have that as their focus. The course will introduce students to a critical body of material from and about the Arab World.

b. The way in which the proposed course relates to other courses within the department of origin; As stated above in (a), this course will provide a wonderful complement to our current courses. In a literary and cultural tradition where male voices are dominant, this course will allow for a broader analytical view of the region.

c. The way in which the course relates to courses in other departments, divisional or interdisciplinary programs (if appropriate, possibilities for interdisciplinary use might be given); This course will complement offerings in the Women’s Studies department. We will discuss cross-listing the course with them, as well as having the course fulfill Women’s Studies major requirements.

d. Justification for any substantial overlap with other courses in the college curriculum, indicating the unique/specific focus of the course proposed; This course may overlap with certain aspects of courses in Women’s Studies, but it will be unique in its focus on women and gender in the Middle East North Africa region.

[Type here]

e. Please specify if this course was offered as a topics or experimental course in the past and state the prefix and number. This course was offered in the Spring 2020 as ARB 20002. It was cancelled due to low enrollment, but we are confident that, if approved to fulfill CUNY Core requirements along with Arabic Major and Minor requirements, this course will draw a significant number of students.

f. List of courses, if any, which are to be withdrawn when the new course is adopted. None.

B. The following additional information must be supplied in the special instances noted: 1. When ENGL 12000 is to be specified as a Pre- or co-requisite, the rationale must justify this in terms of the writing that

is to be done in the course. Because this course requires significant reading, as well as writing in the form of short assignments, a mid-term exam, and a final project, this course requires students have completed ENG 12000

2. In the case of courses given in non-organized classes such as field work, internship, independent study, etc., an explanation must be given as to how the student will earn the credits consistent with the student effort required in organized classes. It should be noted that a course may not carry more credits than contact hours. Laboratory courses usually carry one credit per two contact hours.

• Rationale: Students complete internships independently and off-campus, under the direct supervision of professionals in the field that are not Hunter faculty members. Accordingly, we had been assigning CR/NC grades for internships for decades. We recently became aware that the course had not been approved with the CR/NC grading scale. We are therefore bringing the grading basis in line with longstanding departmental practice. Additionally, we are updating the course title (removing the confusing reference to In Service) and the outdated description (which still referred to our now defunct 24- and 42- credit majors).

Effective Term: Spring 2021 *School of Nursing’s ratios for credit are: 1 credit didactic = 1 hour instruction, 1 credit lab = 2 hours of instruction, and 1 credit clinical = 3 hours of instruction. • Rationale: There is an increasing difficulty in finding quality pediatric clinical experiences for nursing students. Both NURS360

(Nursing Care of Infants, Children, and Adolescents) and NURS352 (Nursing Care of Women and Childbearing Families) will be placed in the same semester to make the best use of clinical sites, resources, and faculty. The clinical experience will consist of 7 weeks NURS360 (5 hours per week) and 7 weeks NURS352 (5 hours per week).

Effective Term: Fall 2020 *School of Nursing’s ratios for credit are: 1 credit didactic = 1 hour instruction and 1 credit clinical = 3 hours of instruction. • Rationale: The course has a clinical component and was approved by the NYSED with a clinical component. The Chancellor’s

Report listed it as a 4-credit course without the clinical component, so we are asking for a re-approval in order for the catalogue to be corrected and the clinical to be listed on CUNY1st.
