All
undergraduate plans of study leading to the degree of Bachelor
of Science, Bachelor of Science in Agricultural and Biological
Engineering, Bachelor of Science in Forestry, or Bachelor
of Science in Landscape Architecture must include a minimum
of three credits of multicultural awareness electives.
Students
must broaden their awareness of the United States domestic,
multicultural environment. The objective of the multicultural
awareness component of the core curriculum is to stimulate
students to become aware of self and others to be better prepared
for the workplace and participatory citizenship.
This
requirement may be fulfilled through:
(3) AGR 20100 (Communicating
Across Culture) . The AGR 20100 course coordinator and lead
instructor will be the Assistant Dean and Director of the
College of Agriculture Office of Diversity Programs. The course
coordinator is responsible for validating the competency of
faculty members responsible for laboratory sections. AGR 201
credits may be used to fulfill written and oral communication,
social science and humanities, or departmental requirements.
[Note AGR 20100 is projected to be offered for the first
time in the 2007 Spring Semester.]
Selection from the multicultural electives course
list. All courses must go through a validation process to
be added to the list. Courses that include multicultural awareness
components developed by College of Agriculture departments
will follow this process.
(0) AGR 49600 ( Multicultural
Professional Experience). Successful completion of an approved
non-credit multicultural awareness work experience (AGR 49600)
of a minimum of 4 weeks duration may be used in lieu of three
credits of multicultural awareness electives to fulfill the
multicultural awareness requirement. The Assistant Dean for
Diversity will be the instructor of record for AGR 49600.
Course proposals that address the learning objectives of the
experience and define how the culture in which the immersion
will take place is different from their native culture will
be evaluated for approval by the Assistant Dean for Diversity.
Approval is required as a condition for registration.
Multicultural
Awareness Electives
Additional
courses may be added to this list via approval by the Agricultural
Faculty Curriculum and Student Relations Committee of the

of the multicultural requirement in the College of Agriculture
. The objective of the multicultural awareness component
of the core curriculum is to stimulate students to become
aware of self and others to be better prepared for the workplace
and participatory citizenship. Students are encouraged to
