UBUS BADM 395. CAREER PLANNING IN BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (1). Career
planning and job search skills relevant to business administration majors. Topics include
preparation of resumes and cover letters, business etiquette, business communication skills,
business ethics, and interviewing techniques. S/U grading. PRQ: Business administration major
and UBUS 310.
Rationale: This course is reserved for business administration majors. The course designator UBUS infers collegewide access. Thus a new designator for business administration courses is appropriate. Changing the course from
an S/U to a graded course better represents the goals and objectives of the class. Providing a grade will encourage
students to exceed the minimum requirements of the course and provide a grade commensurate for their efforts.

206. INTRODUCTORY FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING (3). … PRQ: Completion of 24 or more
semester hours of course work and a grade of C or better in OMIS 259 or equivalent.
Rationale: In a prior meeting, the College of Business changed the lower-level business core to replace a “one-ofnine” course choice with OMIS 259 [see catalog changes accompanying College of Business Curriculum
Committee minutes from April 28, 2009]. This change was made to ensure that students have an information
systems background early in their academic careers to facilitate their successful completion of upper-level business
courses. Consistent with this change, making OMIS 259 a prerequisite for ACCY 206 will accomplish a leveling of
technology skills prior to admission to ACCY 206, allowing this course to build on the foundation created in OMIS
259 and allowing all subsequent College of Business courses to make ever-increasing contributions to the students’
technology skills.
