PRE-LAW PREPARATION

OSU provides opportunities for a complete and rigorous preparation for students interested in attending law school. Our accomplished graduates attend some of the finest schools in the nation.

Law school is one of the few professional schools that do not require a particular set of courses as a prerequisite for admission. Students may major in any subject. Students should choose a

363

364 Oregon State University

major that engages and challenges them, a course of study where they can excel. They are advised to supplement their major courses with a diverse selection of classes that offer depth, rigor and skill in three areas: written and oral communication, deductive reasoning and logic, and a general knowledge of the institutions and values of our society.

The College of Liberal Arts offers many effective and engaging ways to prepare for law school, rather than one single pre-law program. Students interested in law school may contact

Professor Rorie Solberg in the Political

Science Department. Call 541-737-2811 for her office hours. Students should also obtain the College of Liberal Arts pre-law advising brochure from the CLA

Student Services Office in 213 Gilkey

Hall or the Political Science office. The brochure is also available online at http://oregonstate.edu/dept/pol_sci/

Advising/PreLawGuide.htm.

COLLEGE OF

LIBERAL ARTS REQUIREMENTS

A liberal arts education involves exploration and broad study beyond one’s major field. Students are encouraged to understand other cultures, other ways of knowing, and other fields of study. Students are encouraged to take more courses in areas outside their major field to enhance their experience

Liberal arts students are required to satisfy four sets of requirements:

• University Baccalaureate core

• College of Liberal Arts core

• BA or BS requirements

• Major program requirements

The university baccalaureate core course requirements are explained in a separate section, “Earning a Degree at Oregon

State.” The College of Liberal Arts core and the BA and BS requirements are explained below. The major program requirements are explained in the appropriate section in the pages that follow. If you want to add a minor program, you will also need to complete the requirements for that minor. Specific requirements for interdisciplinary minors are listed in the Interdisciplinary

Studies section of this General Catalog.

Specific requirements for disciplinary minors are usually given in the appropriate departmental section; for example see the Economics section for requirements for a minor in economics.

You may not use a single course to satisfy more than one of these requirements. In addition, you may not use courses within your major field to satisfy either baccalaureate core or liberal arts core requirements. (However, courses taken to satisfy the baccalaureate core requirements or the liberal arts core may also be used to satisfy requirements for a minor.)

Liberal Arts Core

The liberal arts core consists of five courses (at least 15 credits) as follows:

• Humanities (3): Critical examination of influential traditions and ideas as defined by major scholarly works

(includes English literature; ethnic studies; film studies; foreign language and literatures, including culture; history; and philosophy).

• Fine Arts (3): Participation in or appreciation of different forms

(includes art, music, theater, and creative writing in poetry, fiction, or drama).

• Social Science (3): Scientific investigation and theory pertaining to human individuals, social groups, institutions, and ideologies (includes anthropology, economics, political science, psychology, sociology, women studies, and selected geography courses).

• Nonwestern Culture (3): Study in any of the following areas focusing outside of western culture–Africa,

Asia, Russia, South America, Central

America, Caribbean, Middle East, the

Pacific, or Native North Americans.

• One additional course from one of the preceding four areas (3).

For a list of specific courses that satisfy the liberal arts core requirements contact the Liberal Arts Student Services Office,

213 Gilkey Hall, or visit the College of

Liberal Arts website: http:// oregonstate.edu/dept/cla.

BA/BS REQUIREMENT

Nearly all liberal arts students graduate with either a Bachelor of Arts or

Bachelor of Science degree.

• BA Requirement: Second-year proficiency in a foreign language at the college level with at least a “C–”.

• BS Requirement: A minimum

15-credit block of science, computer science, and quantitative studies as follows:

1. Any computer science (CS) course approved by the student’s major department (3–4), and

2. Any course from the College of

Science approved by the student’s major department except math

(MTH) or statistics (ST) courses (3–4), and

3. One of the following (8–12):

• Any 8 credits of departmentally approved ST courses, 4 credits of which must be at the 300 level or above (8).

• MTH 111 and MTH 245 (4,4).

• Any 8 credits of MTH courses at the

200 level or above (not including

MTH 211, 212, 391, or 392).

• MTH 211 and MTH 212 (4,4). Preelementary education majors only.

• MTH 241 or MTH 251, and ST 351

(8). Economics majors.

Many departments require specific courses to satisfy the BS degree requirements; students should consult their academic advisors for details. Courses used to satisfy the BS degree requirements may not also be used to satisfy baccalaureate core requirements.

The Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree is offered in applied visual arts by the

Department of Art. BFA degree requirements differ from those in other College of Liberal Arts programs. Students in the

BFA degree program must complete the baccalaureate core and a minimum of

105 credits in art.

Applied Anthropology

The Department of Anthropology offers courses to meet the needs of students interested in a comprehensive understanding of human societies and cultures past and present. Prehistoric, historic, ethnographic, and linguistic study provides the basis for understanding how a variety of societies solve common problems. The anthropology curriculum provides a cross-cultural perspective, a sound basis for later professional or graduate education.

An anthropology degree enables students to pursue a broad range of jobs requiring a liberal arts background; for example, education, human and governmental services, law, business, media, and medicine. It prepares them especially well for work situations that emphasize cross-cultural awareness, international contacts and management of cultural resources.

Anthropology bridges sciences and the humanities and develops critical thinking, communication skills, facility with group processes, and the ability to work independently. It can help students succeed in an increasingly interconnected and complex world. The department also participates in the

MAIS degree program.

The Department of Art offers Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA), Bachelor of Arts

(BA), and Bachelor of Science (BS) degrees through extensive course work in fine arts, graphic design, photography, and art history.


The curriculum provides an awareness and understanding of the historical and contemporary significance of art as a unique feature of society.

Major programs offer the opportunity for professional artistic development while incorporating subjects that lead to a liberal education. These major programs prepare the student for a range of professional opportunities or later graduate study in graphic design, advertising, communications, photography, fine art, and art history. As an enrichment for our students, the department sponsors exhibitions, lectures, workshops, and other events related to the visual arts.

Candidates for the BFA degree may select an option in fine arts, graphic design or photography. Candidates for the BS degree may select the Fine Arts option. Candidates for the BA degree may select an option in fine arts or art history.

The BFA is a pre-professional degree.

The College of Liberal Arts requirements for the BFA differ from other degree programs. (See BFA in Applied Visual

Arts.)

Admission into the Graphic Design and Photography options is selective and competitive. See program requirements for specific details.

The Art History minor combines an introduction to art history with an opportunity to explore advanced topics. The Visual Arts minor is a studio concentration in either fine arts or graphic design. The department also participates in the New Media Communications minors (multimedia, telemedia, and print media).

UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAM

The Department of Economics offers undergraduate major and minor programs in economics. The economics program is an excellent choice for students interested in:

• Law school or graduate programs in business, economics, public administration or other social sciences.

• Careers in business or public management.

• Becoming wiser consumers and more valuable citizens.

The study of economics provides a framework for logical thought that can be used to address a wide variety of practical problems and situations. It can provide uncommon insights into society itself. Indeed, people holding degrees in economics are increasingly sought for positions of responsibility and authority in government, business, and industry.

The economics major is useful preparation for various careers and for graduate study in many fields, primarily because it does not lead simply to the accumulation of facts but rather develops analytical skills that can be used in many ways.

The Managerial Economics option emphasizes applications of economics to the problems of management for students planning to enter business careers upon graduation.

GRADUATE PROGRAM

The Department of Economics offers

MA, MS, and PhD degrees, as well as courses applicable toward graduate degrees in forest resources and agricultural and resource economics. The department also participates in the


Studies (MAIS) and the Master of Public

Policy programs. The graduate program in economics emphasizes a strong foundation in economic theory and econometrics. Areas of specialization include econometrics, industrial organization, international economics, and resource and environmental economics.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

• For admission, an applicant must have at least a “B” average in the last two years of undergraduate study.

• The general Graduate Record

Examination (GRE) is required of all applicants.

• The Department of Economics requires proof of English proficiency from all international students, with a minimum Test of English as a Foreign

Language (TOEFL) score of 575 (paper) or 230 (computer).

• An undergraduate major in economics is desirable but not required.

Graduate Area of Concentration

Ethnic Studies

Ethnic studies is an established academic discipline traditionally defined by a concentration on the experiences and concerns of the four major ethnic minority groups historically underrepresented in United States political and institutional life and in university curricula. Ethnic studies faculty bring a variety of methodological approaches to bear on the exploration of issues affecting African American, Asian

American, Chicano/a-Latino/a, and

American Indian and Alaskan Native communities. A degree in ethnic studies provides a sound basis for future work in graduate or professional programs and is of value to students interested in careers in a broad range of jobs requiring a liberal arts background and an understanding of race, ethnicity and cultural competency.

Ethnic studies majors and minors must satisfy all university baccalaureate core and College of Liberal Arts requirements for the BA or BS degree.

ETHNIC STUDIES


In addition to an ethnic studies core of issue-based courses that examine the intersections of race, class and gender and their relation to the construction of ethnicity, one area of emphasis on a specific ethnic group and a community internship are required.

Students work closely with a departmental advisor to determine a program of study that best meets their needs.

A grade point average of 2.00 is required and majors must earn a grade of “C–” or above in all major courses.

Individualized research and study is limited to 3 credits.

Foreign Languages and

Literatures

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures offers major programs leading to a BA degree in French,

German, or Spanish, as well as minor programs in Chinese, French, German,

Japanese, Russian, and Spanish for undergraduate students with majors in other disciplines. The major and minor programs provide students with the opportunity to develop language skills and to raise their understanding of and appreciation for foreign literatures and cultures.

Proficiency in a foreign language and knowledge of a foreign culture can enhance career possibilities in fields that range from business, library work, and government service to park service, oceanography, agriculture, and forestry.

Students often find it possible to combine languages with another major such as business, fashion, and professional training to prepare for an exciting, internationally oriented career.

Study of a language other than

English can help students improve communication skills in English, become more linguistically aware, develop analytical skills, and communicate on an equal basis with non-Englishspeaking people. Through language courses, students can gain a global perspective, more fully understand different cultures and value systems, and enhance their general knowledge of world development.

An undergraduate academic major

(French, German, or Spanish) is required as a prerequisite to the Fifth-Year

Teacher Education Program designed to prepare students for licensure and/or other graduate programs in education.

The department cooperates with institutions of the Oregon University

System and with other Northwest institutions of higher education in administering overseas study centers at

Beijing and Fujian, China; Quito,

Ecuador; Angers, Lyon, and Poitiers,

France; Baden-Wurttemberg and

Cologne, Germany; Tokyo, Japan;

Seoul, Korea; and Puebla, Mexico.

Students may also study at different institutions in Russia and in the former soviet republics. The department cooperates with the Office of International Education to offer study programs in Santander, Spain, and Tunis,

Tunisia. In addition, it offers a summer program in Ecuador. See International

Education and Foreign Study Programs.

LIBERAL STUDIES

The BA in Liberal Studies offers area studies that allow students to use language and culture courses taken in the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures to fulfill core course requirements. Students majoring in liberal studies can elect to complete their undergraduate degree using prestructured programs in the following areas: Asian studies, Chinese studies,

European studies, Japanese studies.

A minimum of 45 credits of course work in the concentration area is required to complete the Liberal Studies degree (see the Liberal Studies section of this catalog for details).

CERTIFICATE PROGRAMS

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures participates in the

Languages in Culture, Latin American

Affairs and Russian Studies certificate programs. These interdisciplinary programs are designed for students who wish to combine their departmental major with a broad knowledge of Latin


American or Russian affairs, past and present, or who wish to explore how languages and cultures interact. Core courses are typically taken in language, in the humanities and social sciences

(see the College of Liberal Arts section of this catalog for details).

MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING

(French, German, Spanish)

In conjunction with the Professional

Teacher Education Program the

Department of Foreign Languages and

Literatures offers a Master of Arts in

Teaching (MAT) degree that prepares students for initial Oregon teaching certification in the following licensure areas: French, German, and Spanish.

The program consists of courses in education, practicum, and subject graduate course work in the target language. To be admitted to the program students must demonstrate advanced proficiency in French,

German or Spanish (as defined by the

Department of Foreign Languages and

Literatures). For complete program details students should contact the department’s MAT graduate advisor or the College of Education.

(Bilingual Education/ESOL)

The Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures also supports an MAT program leading to a secondary endorsement in Bilingual Education and in English to Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). To obtain the bilingual education endorsement students must complete course work in education and achieve a proficiency level in a target foreign language as defined by the department. For complete program details students should contact the department’s MAT graduate advisor or the College of Education.

MASTER OF ARTS IN

INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES

French, German, and Spanish are recognized areas in the Master of Arts in

Interdisciplinary Studies (MAIS)

Program. Typically, candidates who select French, German or Spanish as one of their primary areas complete graduate course work in language, linguistics, literature and culture studies. To be admitted to a foreign language component of the MAIS program, students must meet the Graduate School’s general entrance requirements and obtain the consent of a graduate faculty of the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures who agrees to serve as the field advisor.

A maximum of 6 graduate credits completed at an overseas study center may be used to satisfy requirements for any one of three fields of the MAIS degree.

DEPARTMENTAL

REQUIREMENTS/BA DEGREE

PROGRAMS

Lower-division courses are prerequisite to the major and minor programs. Students with previous training or experience in the language are advised to contact the department for placement.

To be admitted to a major or minor program in the department, a student must have attained appropriate proficiency (as defined by the language section faculty).

Foreign language majors may fulfill the College of Liberal Arts requirement for the BA degree by successfully completing: a. a second-year sequence in a second foreign language; b. one year of another language plus

9 credits of upper-division courses in their own major; c. one year of another language, plus

9 credits of approved upper-division courses; and, d. take 18 credits of courses relating to a linguistic culture outside of their major.

Prior to graduation with a language major, students must participate in an approved study program or in an approved work experience in a country where the language is spoken, or must fulfill this requirement as the language section faculty prescribes.

The MA in Contemporary Hispanic

Studies provides an alternative to traditional pre-doctoral programs focused on literary theory or linguistics.

Based on the multidimensional approach to language education promoted in the National Standards for

Foreign Language Education, this program brings together theoretical knowledge and practical skills in a single program designed to prepare students for further graduate study or for careers in education, migrant programs, nongovernmental organizations, and other sectors affected by rapidly changing demographics. The integrated minor provides additional exploration of themes related to intercultural communication from a broad, interdisciplinary perspective.

The Master of Arts in Contemporary

Hispanic Studies requires completion of

48 credits of graduate-level course work.

Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores.

• Three letters of recommendation that specifically evaluate academic abilities and professional potential.

GRADUATE DEGREE

REQUIREMENTS

Requirements for the Master’s degree:

Either the MA or MS may be earned.

The MA requires demonstration, either by course work or examination, of a reading knowledge of a foreign language appropriate for research. Both degrees require the successful completion of 45 graduate credits. Candidates are required to have a major field of at least 24 credits of course work (including historiography) from a list of approved history of science courses and a minor field of 15 credits of course work in science, history, or a related (or integrated) field; a thesis is also required.

Requirements for a Doctoral degree:

The equivalent of three years of graduate work beyond the bachelor’s degree is required including a doctoral thesis. This must include the requirements for, or the equivalent of, a master’s degree in history of science.

Course work should have history of science as a major; the minor field can be in science, history, or a related (or integrated) field. Generally two foreign languages are required.

LIBERAL STUDIES


An interdisciplinary major in liberal studies leading to a BA or BS degree is available for students whose academic and career interests suggest greater curricular breadth and flexibility than is available in other major programs.

Candidates for the Liberal Studies degree must complete the following:

• University baccalaureate core

• College of Liberal Arts core requirements

• A program consisting of 45 or more credits that are thematic in nature and include at least 27 upper-division credits developed from the course offerings of two or more departments within the College of Liberal Arts. The plan of study and statement of justification must be approved in advance by the director.

• At least one Writing Intensive Course with a grade of “C” or better.

• Maintain a 2.0 or better university GPA.

• Maintain a 2.3 or better major GPA.

The typical program is designed to meet the needs and interests of the particular student and is unique in content. In some cases, a prestructured program may provide a suitable match.

HUMANITIES OPTION (51)

Available only at OSU-Cascades Campus

The Humanities option at OSU-

Cascades is innovative. It allows students to enrich their educational experience by drawing on the resources of several partner institutions. Strongly interdisciplinary in its emphasis, the

Humanities option reaches out across institutional and disciplinary borders which, traditionally, have been heavily fortified. The Humanities option at

OSU-Cascades embraces the idea that collaboration is an integral element of any learning process, and, in this spirit, students will work closely with faculty advisers in the design of their programs.

In line with its goal of enhancing the educational experience by crossing boundaries, the Humanities option also seeks to facilitate interrelationships between the student’s academic program and the larger community.

No course may be used to meet more than one requirement. Courses used to fulfill the Humanities option requirements cannot be used to fulfill baccalaureate core or liberal arts core requirements, except writing intensive core

(WIC) courses. 27 credits in the option must be OSU College of Liberal Arts credits.

The Department of Music offers programs leading to the BA or BS degree, a variety of baccalaureate core courses for students with little or no background in music, and opportunities for qualified students to perform in bands, choirs, and the symphony orchestra. Students wishing a greater curricular choice may wish to combine music study with courses in another department in the College of Liberal Arts for a liberal studies major.

The Department of Music offers graduate courses in music education, literature and history, conducting, performance and special projects.

Graduate students may pursue the

Master’s of Arts in Teaching (MAT) in music education or the Master of Arts in

Interdisciplinary Studies (MAIS) in a broad range of fields. OSU’s graduate programs in music have been approved by Oregon’s Teacher Standards and

Practices Commission and the National

Council for Accreditation of Teacher

Education. Programs are available for individuals seeking both the initial and/ or continuing license in music at all


levels of authorization. The continuing license may be earned through completion of a masters degree and three years or more of successful teaching.

Performance instruction at the intermediate and advanced levels is available with instructor consent.

Students should contact the department office for application procedures and fee schedules.

Scholarships are available for music majors and for outstanding performers.

Auditions and interviews take place in

February, March, and April each year.

Selection is based on musical and academic achievement.

The Music Learning Center in Benton

Hall has a large collection of phonograph records, scores, and compact disks, as well as listening facilities, and electronic and computerized learning aids. Books on music, videos, and some printed music are also housed in the

Valley Library.

Labs for the two-year literature and materials sequence are taught using computers in the Kidder Hall-028

The Department of Philosophy offers an undergraduate program leading to a BA or BS degree, a philosophy minor, an undergraduate and postbaccalaureate certificate in applied ethics, an MA in

Applied Ethics, and participates in the


Studies (MAIS) program with a focus on applied ethics and other areas of philosophy. The department’s Program for Ethics, Science, and the Environment

(PESE) supports multidisciplinary education and scholarship on ethical and policy issues that are raised by advances in scientific knowledge, biotechnology, and natural resource use.

The Spring Creek Project seeks to bring together the practical wisdom of the environmental sciences, the clarity of philosophical analysis, and the creative, expressive power of the written word, to find new ways to understand and re-imagine our relation to the natural world.

Baccalaureate core courses are taught for students interested in broadening their intellectual horizons, developing their abilities for intellectual criticism, and enlarging their understanding of social, ethical, religious, political, and aesthetic values in contemporary society and world cultures. The department invites non-majors to combine study of philosophy with their major program by enrolling in the philosophy minor or the Applied Ethics certificate program.

An undergraduate degree in philosophy provides a broad education and intellectual skills that are useful in many occupations and areas of life. The undergraduate major is also valuable background for graduate study in philosophy and religious studies and for advanced study in such professional fields as law and public service. The philosophy minor program allows students to specialize in such areas as ethics, legal and political philosophy, philosophy and religion, non-Western philosophies and religious ideas, philosophy of art, logic, philosophy of science, and the history of philosophy.

Many philosophy courses have content that is relevant to the interests of women and minority students.

Students interested in philosophy programs should contact or visit the department’s undergraduate advisor, Dr.

Jim Blumenthal, or director of graduate studies, Dr. Lani Roberts.

MA IN APPLIED ETHICS DEGREE

The Department of Political Science offers both a major and minor program; the major program leads to the BA or the BS degree. Course work in several subfields is offered, including American politics, public policy, public law, public administration, political theory, state and local government, international relations, women and politics, and comparative politics (for example, Latin

America, Asia, Western Europe, Russia).

Political science graduates pursue careers in law, foreign service, management (all levels of government), international organizations, journalism, university teaching, research, political office, and business.

Political science majors must complete core requirements specified below. They may then choose either to concentrate in one or two subfields or to seek breadth by taking courses in a number of the subfields.

Political science majors are encouraged to incorporate into their studies a minor in other social science fields such as economics, psychology, or sociology, or in a field of interest related to their specialization in political science. For example, students with interest in international relations or comparative politics may choose to minor in a language or in history, emphasizing a specific part of the world. Political science majors also are encouraged to consider the International Degree and

Global Graduates Internship programs.

The Political Science Department also participates in the Master of Arts in

Interdisciplinary Studies (MAIS) degree program and the Master of Public Policy

(MPP) degree program. See the Graduate School.



Students selecting a major in political science must complete 51 credits of political science course work, of which at least 35 credits must be upperdivision courses. As part of these overall credit totals, political science majors must complete:

I. Five Foundation Courses

Normally, foundation courses are taken in a student’s first two years. The department encourages students to take them in their first or second year.

PS 201. *Intro to United States

Government (4)

PS 204. *Intro to Comparative Politics (4)

PS 205. *Intro to International

Relations (4)

PS 206. *Intro to Political Thought (4)

PS 400. Political Analysis (4)

Majors must take the prerequisite foundation course in a given subfield before enrolling in upper-division subfield courses. (For example, PS 201 must be taken prior to enrolling in PS 321.)

II. Four Upper-division Subfield

Courses

One each from the four following subfields:

1. American national government and politics, to include the judiciary, state and local government, public policy, public administration;

2. comparative politics;

3. international relations;

4. political philosophy.


III. The Political Field Work

PS 401. Research and Scholarship (1–16)


PS 403. Thesis (1–16)

Majors are required to maintain a minimum cumulative 2.50 grade point average for all political science course work.

Candidates for a BA degree must complete the university foreign language requirement. Students pursuing a

BS degree must complete 15 credits in mathematics, computer science and/or quantitative studies (for students beginning fall 1997 or transfers beginning fall 1999) as follows:

1. Computer science (3–4 credits), and

2. Any course from the College of

Science except math or statistics

(3–4 credits), and

3. One of the following (8 credits):

A. Any 8 credits of departmentally approved statistics (ST) courses,

4 credits of which must be at the

300-level or above (8 credits).

B. MTH 111 and MTH 245 (8 credits).

C. Any 8 credits of MTH courses at the 200 level or above (not including MTH 211, MTH 212,

MTH 213, MTH 391, or MTH 392).

D. MTH 241 or MTH 251, and ST 351

(8 credits). Economics majors.

Courses used to satisfy the BS requirements may not also be used to satisfy baccalaureate core requirements.

Many departments require specific courses to satisfy this set of requirements; students should consult their academic advisor for details.

Students with interest in graduate study are advised to acquire competence in statistics and computer data processing. Students interested in law school should consult Rorie Solberg, pre-law advisor, in their second year.

No more than 6 credits from

PS 402–PS 406 and PS 410 may be applied to the major.

Students selecting a minor in political science must complete 27 credits of political science, of which at least 18 must be upper division.

Five minor areas are available: a general minor, and specialized minors in

American government and politics, judicial politics, international affairs, public policy and public administration.

Descriptions of the minors are available from the Department of Political

Science. When declaring a political science minor with the registrar, a student may request that the transcript identify the specific minor.

No more than 6 credits from

PS 402–PS 406 and PS 408 may be applied to the minor.

Students may take up to 12 credits of

PS 410, Internship, but only 4 of these credits will count toward the Political

Science minor. Credits over the 4-credit maximum may be applied toward general graduation requirements.


GRADUATE MINOR

MAIS Graduate Areas of

Concentration

American politics, public policy, judicial politics, public administration, political theory, state and local government, international relations, comparative politics, gender politics, environmental policy


Political Science may serve as a field of study for a Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies degree or the Master of

Public Policy degree or as a minor in other advanced degree programs.

The program aims to provide a systematic understanding of political processes, institutions, theories, and behavior. Students are strongly urged to acquire competence in statistics and computer data processing as aids in analyzing political phenomena. A program of study suited to the student’s individual interests is arranged with a faculty advisor.

Students applying for graduate work in political science must meet the following requirements:

1. A minimum overall undergraduate

GPA of 3.00.

2. Appropriate undergraduate course work in political science (normally such course work will include foundation courses such as American government and politics, introduction to political science, or introduction to political thought).

3. Prior approval of an advisor in this department in the applicant’s chosen area of study.

No action will be taken on any applicant’s materials until a meeting with an advisor has taken place. Areas of study include American politics, public policy, judicial politics, public administration, political theory, state and local government, international relations, comparative politics, methodology, and gender politics.

The psychology curriculum explores scientific approaches to a wide range of psychological phenomena. Courses meet the needs of students desiring a knowledge of psychology as part of their general education or professional background, planning to secure entrylevel jobs in human services occupations, or preparing for graduate study in psychology or related fields. The department offers a major program leading to a BA or BS degree in general psychology, a minor program for undergraduate students with majors in other disciplines, and participates in the


Studies (MAIS) degree program offered by the Graduate School.

Graduates with bachelor degrees in psychology often find entry-level career positions in human services, law enforcement, business, education, management, sales, and also may go on to graduate study in such fields as psychology, counseling, social work, public and business administration, and law.



Students design their own MAIS program around three fields or areas of study, and may use specific areas of psychology for one of their two secondary fields. At least three courses must be in each field. Students wishing to include psychology as a secondary specialty area in an MAIS program should submit the following to the department:

1. Graduate Record Exam (GRE) scores for the verbal, quantitative, and analytic segments of the examination

2. Overall GPA

3. A list of psychology courses taken and the grades achieved in each

4. Transcripts of all previous university work

5. Names of two references who can be contacted by the department

6. A one- or two-page statement of the purpose for including psychology in their graduate program.

To be admitted to a psychology component of the MAIS program students must obtain written consent of a faculty member in this department who agrees to serve as the field or area advisor, as well as meeting general

Graduate School entrance requirements.

Sociology

Sociology is the study of human social behavior. Sociologists examine processes of interaction within and between groups and resulting social systems. The undergraduate program in the Department of Sociology provides a broad understanding of human societies and culture for persons in all fields, with integrated programs for majors and minors in sociology leading to BA and

BS degrees.

PREPARATION

High school students planning to major in sociology should take courses in history, social studies, and foreign languages. Substantial work in English composition and mathematics is also highly desirable.

CAREERS

Students earning bachelor’s degrees in sociology are found in a wide variety of vocations open to liberal arts graduates, including business, public administration, social services, recreation, criminal justice and teaching. Undergraduate education in sociology frequently serves as preparation for graduate and professional schools offering advanced degrees in law, urban planning and management, architecture, business administration, social work and other social sciences. Postbaccalaureate education is usually required for those seeking careers as professional social scientists in program and policy analysis, marketing, and postsecondary education.

UNDERGRADUATE

INTEREST AREAS

Selecting courses around a topic or theme of interest adds meaning to one’s education and strengthens the base of understanding from which one then pursues a career or further education.

The areas of study listed below illustrate ways in which undergraduate students may group their course work, although doing so is not required.

• Deviance and social control

• Environmental and natural resources

• International development

• Social interaction and group relations

• Social policy

• Social systems and social change

Students’ academic advisors will assist them in course selection from a list available in the Department of Sociology.



Sociology serves as a minor field of study in the Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies degree program and as a minor field in other advanced degree programs. The MAIS program is designed to meet the particular needs and interests of the individual student and features collaborative work in any two other pertinent departments.

Sociology may serve as one or two of the minor fields of concentration. See the Department of Sociology website, http://www.oregonstate.edu/dept/ sociology/graduate.html, for a listing of required course work for a minor concentration at the graduate level and for application procedures.

Speech Communication

The Department of Speech Communication offers major programs leading to a BA or BS degree providing both theoretical and practical aspects of human oral communication as a liberal art, as a social science, as background for further study, or as pre-professional experience. The department also participates in the Master of Arts in

Interdisciplinary Studies (MAIS) degree program; see the Graduate School.



Currently, students who major in

Speech Communication must choose between a Communication option and a Theatre Arts option. Both options function as stand-alone majors.

The Communication option consists of 48 credits of course work. Students who choose the Communication option will be required to satisfactorily complete an undergraduate prerequisite core before applying (through the

Department of Speech Communication) to the major. Students who are working on completing the prerequisite core are placed in pre-communication.

The Theatre Arts option consists of

51 credits of course work. Students in theatre arts do not need to complete the undergraduate prerequisite core


required in the Communication option.

The course requirements for students pursuing a Theatre Arts option are held to a minimum with the intention of allowing the student and his or her faculty advisor to devise a program most suited to the student’s specific needs and objectives.

Students in speech communication must successfully complete the requirements of either the Communication option (48 credits) or Theatre Arts option (51 credits); the requirements of the Liberal Arts Core (15 cr); the

Baccalaureate Core (48 credits); and the requirements for a BA or BS.

Graduate Minor

Women Studies

Women studies is the multidisciplinary study of women’s lives and experience.

Course work explores women’s realities in such areas as the political and social sciences, health, psychology, history, literature and arts. Women studies programs grew out of the women’s movement, involving understandings of sexist discrimination in society and a need to celebrate women’s strengths, contributions and forms of resistance.

Grounded in this feminist knowledge, women studies is constantly growing and changing in order to understand and affirm the role that issues of race, class, age, ability, appearance and sexual orientation play in women’s everyday lives. It is hoped that students will find women studies to be academically challenging and personally rewarding.

The goal is to provide a program that is intellectually sound and vocationally useful, as well as one that encourages personal growth. The Women Studies

Program offers a minor, a certificate and the MAIS degree with specialization in women studies. For the Women Studies option, please see Liberal Studies.

LIBERAL STUDIES OPTION

The BA in Liberal Studies degree gives students the opportunity to specialize in women studies as primary or secondary areas of the degree. While students who major in liberal studies must complete a total of 45 credits, at least 24 credits are required for primary specialization, and at least 15 for secondary specialization in women studies. Students work out their own specific program of course


work in women studies in consultation with a faculty advisor and in conjunction with the director of Liberal Studies.

GRADUATE STUDY

IN WOMEN STUDIES

Women studies is a recognized field of study in the Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies (MAIS) program with specializations in contemporary women’s issues; gender, race, and class; and global women’s issues. Participating students who declare women studies as their primary area are required to take a minimum of 18 credits in women studies, including WS 514, Systems of

Oppression in Women’s Lives; WS 516,

Theories of Feminism; WS 580, International Women; WS 510, Internship; and

WS 518, Feminist Research (thesis option only). The balance of courses is selected from the graduate women studies courses, projects, and research/ thesis.

Students may also choose women studies as both their primary and one secondary areas, or as secondary area(s) alone in the MAIS program. They must complete a minimum of 12 credits including WS 516, and WS 514 or

WS 580 for a secondary area.

The graduate minor in Women

Studies is available to graduate students as they work toward a master’s or PhD in departments that offer these degrees.

Students working on the graduate minor in Women Studies must complete

12 credits at the master’s level and

18 credits at the PhD level, including

WS 514, WS 516, WS 518 and WS 580.

The balance of the course work is selected from the graduate Women

Studies courses (listed below), projects, or research.

For more information about graduate work in women studies, contact the director of the Women Studies Program,

200 Gilkey Hall, 541-737-6132.

WOMEN STUDIES MINOR

The Women Studies minor provides an exploration of gender as a focal point of analysis in determining differentials of power and opportunity. It studies the interaction of gender within a complex matrix of class, race, age, ethnicity, nationality, and sexual identity.

Students are expected to take the bulk of their course work toward the minor from core and elective courses offered by the Women Studies Program. A total of

27 credits is required for the minor, with at least 12 credits at the upper-division level.

WOMEN STUDIES

GRADUATE MINOR


Contemporary women’s issues; race, class and gender; women and international issues

Women studies is the multidisciplinary study of women’s lives and experiences.

Course work explores women’s realities in such areas as the political and social sciences, health, psychology, history, literature, and the arts. Women studies programs grew out of the women’s movement, involving understandings of discrimination in society and a need to celebrate different women’s strengths, contributions, and forms of resistance.

Women studies can be elected as a primary and/or secondary field for the


Studies degree (MAIS) and as a graduate minor. Areas of specialization include contemporary women’s issues; gender, race and class; and international women’s issues. The master’s program requires a thesis or research report

(nonthesis option) and the completion of a core curriculum. This curriculum includes an understanding of how issues of gender, race, class, and other differences among women affect their status in Western and global perspectives. It also emphasizes the relationship between theory and strategies for social change. An internship or field placement in an agency that is concerned with women’s role and status in society is required and is designed to help students integrate classroom knowledge with practical experience. The graduate program is beneficial for any work experience in which women are affected.

Women Studies graduates are employed in human service agencies and programs, advocacy organizations such as battered women’s shelters and women’s resource centers and community organizing, teaching, business, administration, and cultural work. Many students have used their degree as a preparatory base for doctoral work.

Women studies faculty are drawn from colleges across the university.

Many teach women studies elective courses in their home departments and are involved in research projects that give them different perspectives on the challenges in women studies. These courses and faculty are not listed in this entry. For more information, contact

It emphasizes the diversity of women’s experience through a focus on disciplinary-based knowledge about women’s lives and relationships in the many departments where courses on gender are taught. While core course work taught by the Women Studies

Program is required, students are expected to take the bulk of their elective course work from approved
