The Academic Affairs Committee moved to approve the following graduate certificate in Organizational Leadership Program. The motion passed. Jeff Katz gave a brief overview of the graduate certificate in Organizational Leadership Program. 13 Graduate Certificate in Organizational Leadership Program Educational Objectives: The purpose of the online Graduate Certificate in Organizational Leadership (GCOL) program is to provide an opportunity for individuals to gain leadership skills and basic business knowledge without having to participate in a full MBA program (52 credit hours). Students will attain an understanding of leadership skills and the basic functional areas of business and how each contributes to an effective business organization. Results of an online survey of K-State alumni provide evidence of potential demand for a graduate certificate in this area. Proposed Course Sequence: The GCOL program will consist of 15 credit hours, three current core courses in Business and two proposed courses in Leadership: The Proposed Leadership Courses: GRAD 801. Foundations of Leadership (3) I GRAD 820. Leadership Practicum (3) I, II (prerequisite: Grad 801) Selection of three of the following four core courses: ACCTG 810. Accounting Concepts and Analysis FINAN 815. Managerial Finance I MANGT 810. Operations Management and Analysis MKTG 810. Marketing Concepts and Research Fall Semester: ACCTG 810. Accounting Concepts and Analysis. (3) I. A study of the nature of business transactions; identifying relevant economic events for reporting; determining the most appropriate financial measures for those events; and analyzing the effects of those events on firm performance and financial condition. Pr.: MATH 205 or instructor permission. MANGT 810. Operations Management and Analysis. (3) II. The study of the role of operations systems in the provision of value for the customer. Operations systems design, capacity determination, resource requirements planning and control, theory of constraints, supply chain management, quality management and control and project management are discussed and analyzed. Pr.: STAT 351 or STAT 702 or instructor permission. Note: Due to staffing issues, this course will be offered one time only this Fall 2006. It will be offered in the Spring semester thereafter. GRAD 801. Foundations of Leadership. (3) I. The course is designed to encourage students to think about some key issues in the theory, research, and application of leadership in organizations. Specifically, the course has four broad objectives: 1) To develop a definition of what leadership is; identify the characteristics of effective leaders, and gain a basic understanding of contemporary theories of leadership. 2) To identify the situational characteristics that facilitate leadership and to understand leadership within a diverse world. 3) To understand how to identify and assess both effective and dysfunctional leadership. 4) To develop an understanding of one’s own leadership style and of ways to develop ethical 14 leadership in an organizational context. Spring Semester: FINAN 815. Managerial Finance I. (3) II. Introduction to the process of value creation. Development of an understanding of the environment in which firms operate, including a discussion of financial markets and institutions and valuation of financial assets. Provides a working knowledge of the financial system and analytical tools for decision making. Pr.: ACCTG 810 or instructor permission. MKTG 810. Marketing Concepts and Research. (3) II. Presents marketing concepts and marketing research concepts at the graduate level. Emphasis is directed toward managerial strategy development using marketing theories and applied marketing research techniques. Pr.: MATH 205 or 220 or instructor permission. At End of Certificate Program. GRAD 820. Leadership Practicum (3) I. II. The practicum is a means of demonstrating the interconnections between ‘theory” and “practice”. By conducting a practicum project, students demonstrate the ability to apply concepts and ideas from their study of leadership to a practical matter of concern to an organization and leadership within that organization. Pr.: GRAD 801, and three of the following four courses: ACCTG 810, FINAN 815, MANGT 810, and MKTG 810. How Proposed Course Sequence Meets Program Objectives: With one basic course in three of the following four functional business areas, accounting, finance, marketing, and management, breadth of coverage in the basic areas of business should be attained with the understanding and practice of leadership skills. Entrance Criteria: (1) Applicant must submit online application as non-degree student. (2) Applicant must have minimum of 3.0 advanced undergraduate GPA (advanced GPA is calculated using the last 60 credit hours) with undergraduate degree OR minimum of 3.0 graduate GPA. NOTES: * Courses taken under this Certificate program may be applied to the Graduate Certificate of Business Administration or to the MBA program upon application and acceptance into the MBA program. * The certificate program student must file his/her intent for the “Certificate” with the CBA Graduate Studies Office prior to the enrollment in the Leadership Practicum. * Current CBA Graduate students will not be allowed to enroll in the online business classes. The higher cost of the on-line classes should discourage most students from doing so. * Restrictions: The applicant’s residence is more than 30 miles from KSU campus for any online graduate MBA business course or concurrent enrollment in another graduate program other than the MBA program, if space is unavailable in regular classes oncampus. 15 Maintenance Criteria: Certificate program students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA. If the student’s GPA falls below a 3.0, he/she will be dismissed from the certificate program. The student may reapply to the program after retaking the recommended courses needed to improve the cumulative GPA. Course retakes must be approved by the CBA Director of Graduate Studies and the Graduate school. The student must also meet other graduate school requirements for a retake of a course included in the certificate program. Statement of Need: For most of the past decade, universities throughout the United States, with support from the Kellogg, Ford and other foundations, have developed a wide range of leadership programs. In the “Big 12”, a number of institutions have centers of leadership with seminars and classes. The University of Colorado offers a certificate of leadership that is available to all students. The University of Nebraska has a leadership track in their PhD program offered through their College of Business. KSU has an undergraduate minor in leadership studies that was established in 1997 that has been extremely successful. The Certificate in Business Leadership would be the first graduate offering in the area of leadership at Kansas State University.. Target Markets: (1) An outreach to individuals currently residing and employed more than 30 miles from the KSU campus and unable to attend on-campus classes but desiring graduate courses that give them a graduate level exposure to basic business functions and leadership. (2) To graduate students on-campus in other programs who are unable to enroll in oncampus classes because of a lack of space. Certificate Administration: Dr. Jeff Katz, Assistant Dean and Director of Graduate Studies (effective June 19th, 2006) 107 Calvin Hall CAMPUS He will be responsible for admissions processing and student advising. Graduate Faculty Members Contributing to the Program: Kevin Gwinner, Associate Professor of Marketing Chwen Sheu, Professor of Management Eric Higgins, Associate Professor of Finance David Vruwink, Associate Professor of Accounting Requested Effective Date: Fall 2006 The Academic Affairs Committee moved to approve the following graduate certificate in Public Administration. The motion passed. Krishna Tummala gave a brief overview of the graduate certificate in Public Administration. 16 Graduate Certificate in Public Administration Educational Objectives Mission: The mission of the Graduate Certificate in Public Administration is to be a flexible professional certificate program for those who desire to pursue education in the principles of public management to advance in their administrative careers in the public sector, not-for-profit sector, and military. Certificate holders will be trained for entry level management positions with government agencies at the federal, state, or local level, and with regional or sub-state organizations. After obtaining the certificate, students will be allowed to apply their certificate hours towards a Master of Public Administration at Kansas State University. All course work will be offered via various distance learning technologies so that students from all over the state, nation, and world will be able to obtain this certificate. Curriculum Goals: Students with a Graduate Certificate in Public Administration will understand the general principles of public administration, including but not limited to public sector budgeting, personnel, public organization theory, and research methods. Students will also have the option of specializing in one of the following two areas in public management, administrative law or not-for-profit management. The overall educational goal is to provide professional training for a wide range of administrative venues, while providing students the flexibility to specialize in an area of interest. Curriculum Students are required to take 15 hours of course work, 12 of which are core courses and 3 of which are elective hours. The “core” curriculum is composed of four courses that focus upon subject matter that any public manager needs to master and use. They are: 1. Research Methods in Political Science (POLSC 700): Principles of scientific inquiry, research design, and the measurement and analysis of political phenomena will be covered (Asynchronous). 2. Public Personnel Administration (POLSC 708): The policy aspects of public personnel administration at all levels of government are examined. Specific attention is given to personnel issues unique to the public sector such as rights of public employees, civil service systems, and public service ethics in a democratic society (ITV). 3. Public Organization Theory (POLSC 735): Theories concerning the structure and mission of public organizations, and the role of administrative leadership in applying theory to solve organizational problems will be examined (Asynchronous). 4. Public Budgeting (POLSC 737): Budgeting, as a fiscal management tool, is examined within the political decision making process. Several budgetary techniques such as Line-item, Performance Budgeting, PPBS, and Z-B B will also be studied. (ITV) At the discretion of the Director of the MPA program, up to six hours of equivalent graduate courses taken in other K-State graduate programs or at other universities may be accepted as core courses. To earn credit for an equivalent course, the student must produce the course syllabus and must have obtained a B or above in the course. 17 Students are required to take one elective course (3 hours). The following two courses are currently offered by the department via distance learning technologies. Other electives will be accepted in consultation with the director of the MPA program. 1. Administrative Law (POLSC 607): Legal analysis of the rule-making, adjudicatory, and enforcement functions of administrative agencies, with emphasis on constitutional framework, judicial review, requirements of procedural fairness, and rights of public employees. (Asynchronous) 2. Not-for-Profit Management (POLSC 650): Unique management issues in terms of policy setting, participation, administration, and accountability for non-profit organizations. (Asynchronous) Need Various statewide organizations like the League of Kansas Municipalities, Kansas Association of Counties, Kansas Treasurers Association, and their sister organizations in surrounding states provide a variety of non-credit training options for public sector employees often desire additional graduate education and certificate opportunities to advance in their careers. In addition, military personnel and civilian employees at military installations are often in a similar situation. After receiving their undergraduate degrees, they need additional public management training to advances their careers. Finally, the certificate program provides an option for an additional specialty within the multi-university Community Development MA program. Attachment A contains letters of support from the League of Kansas Municipalities and the Kansas Association of Counties. KU currently offers a Certified Public Manager certificate in Topeka and Salina. WSU offers an array of training for county officials mainly in the central part of the state, while FHSU offers one-day training courses to the Kansas County Treasurers Association. Because the curriculum of our Graduate Certificate in Public Administration will be offered via distance learning modality, it will be marketed to public sector employees and military personnel who are placed bound and unable to travel to attend courses offered by these other Regents schools. Attachment A also contains letters of support from the public administration programs at KU and WSU, and the Docking Institute of Public Affairs at FHSU. Admissions Admission is open to any student currently admitted to a graduate program at K-State or multiuniversity cooperative programs like the MA in Community Development. The program will be open to any student with a Bachelor’s degree from an accredited university, but not enrolled as a graduate student at K-State. These students will be admitted to the program and graduate school as non-degree students. Students obtaining this certification will be half way toward the MPA degree. Any non-degree student who performs satisfactorily (B average) in the certificate program will be eligible for admission as a graduate student in the MPA program. 18 Governing and Administration The Graduate Certificate in Public Administration will be administered by the Director of the Master of Public Administration (MPA) program at Kansas State University. The MPA program is housed in the Political Science Department. The Head of Political Science is responsible for supervising the administration of the department’s degree programs, including the Graduate Certificate in Public Administration. The department is a part of the College of Arts and Sciences, and as such, answers to the Dean of the Graduate School, the Provost, and President of K-State. Faculty Joseph A.
