May 15, 2008
On April 15, 2008, the Provost received a set of recommendations from the Academic Affairs Program Prioritization (A2P2) Phase II Task Force. These recommendations were based on careful consideration of individual program reviews, recommendations from deans and academic area administrators, program data from Institutional Research, input from the Faculty Senate, comments received on the A2P2 website, discussions at the A2P2 Forum held April 3, 2008, and continued interaction with the deans after the A2P2 Forum. Many of the recommendations agreed with those made by the deans and area administrators, others differed.
The following decisions are based on Task Force recommendations, further input from deans, area administrators, and Faculty Senate leaders, and the long-term best interest of Washington State University.
I. General Institutional Decisions
- Conduct a university-wide course audit with the goal of reducing the number of undergraduate and graduate courses offered across the university. Reductions will vary across programs, but should total approximately 20% university-wide.
- Conduct a university-wide degree audit with the goal of reducing the number of majors, minors, options, and degrees.
- In consultation with the faculty, place a moratorium on new courses and degree offerings until the course and degree audits have been completed.
- Identify and implement governance and budget strategies for better integrating and differentiating the delivery of degree programs across campuses.
- Implement a faculty hiring strategy where the primary criterion is to build critical mass in priority areas of research/scholarship and teaching, rather than filling existing specific teaching assignments.
- Develop and implement strategies for re-directing faculty into and re-training them for priority areas.
II. Cross-College/Cross-Area Decisions
Applied Social Sciences
- Create a Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the College of Liberal Arts.
- Infuse social sciences into Health Sciences, Environment and Sustainability, Water, and other interdisciplinary initiatives.
- Consider moving the Department of Human Development into the new Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences or to the College of Education.
Environment and Sustainability
- Conduct an internal review to determine how to build a focused area of environment and sustainability using resources currently invested in the School of Earth and Environmental Science, the Department of Natural Resource Sciences, and the Department of Community and Rural Sociology. Options include
- Consolidating SEES, NRS, and CRS into a new unit.
- Using resources from these units to strengthen existing environment and sustainability programs university-wide.
General Education
- Elevate general education as an institutional budget priority.
- Review the philosophy and restructure the overall content of general education.
- Expect tenure-line faculty "ownership" of and engagement in general education.
- Develop, with the assistance of an external consultant, a funding model and administrative structure for general education that clearly defines the roles of the Office of Undergraduate Education, the Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences, and other colleges contributing to the general education curriculum.
Health Sciences
- Develop Health Sciences, including first-year Medical Education, Pharmacy, Nursing, and related health professions as a university-wide division headquartered at WSU Spokane with programs /services in Pullman, Tri-Cities, and Vancouver.
- Consolidate the Department of Speech and Hearing Science in Spokane as part of the Division of Health Sciences, refocusing the program to attract research funding.
- Consider moving a joint department of Kinesiology (Athletic Training, Movement Studies, Health and Fitness, and PE Activity) and Sports Management from the College of Education to the Division of Health Sciences.
- Strengthen the social, cultural, and behavioral aspects of human health through close linkages with the College of Liberal Arts and WSU Extension within the Division of Health Sciences.
Interdisciplinary Design Institute
- Assign IDI the role of
- Stimulating interdisciplinary research, graduate education, and outreach in the design disciplines (Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Interior Design, and possibly, other design-related disciplines, e.g., Apparel Merchandising, Design, and Textiles, Fine Arts, and Digital Technology and Culture).
- Assisting undergraduate/professional programs in the design disciplines in providing students urban design experiences and interdisciplinary learning opportunities.
- Reconfigure the budget model and administrative structure of IDI to assure unified faculty expectations and collaborative program planning and management. The chancellor and the deans of CAHNRS, Engineering and Architecture, and other involved colleges will lead this effort.
Statistics
- Conduct an external review to facilitate the development of a program vision and a recommended structure that best serves the teaching, research, and service needs of WSU.
Water
- Make "water" a major focus of Environment and Sustainability efforts. (Water will continue to be a major issue for the economic development and well-being of Washington.)
- Consolidate and focus existing and new water programs to address critical issues facing Washington.
- Utilize the current review of the Water Research Center in the Office of Research as a preliminary step in developing a university-wide plan for water research, teaching, and outreach.
III. College Decisions
Program recommendations submitted by Colleges on March 15, 2008 are summarized in Appendix A.
Each college will audit its courses, options, minors, majors, and degrees as per Section I, 1 and 2.
By June 15, 2008 each college will submit to the Provost:
- Course and degree audit initial results and preliminary recommendations.
- Draft plan and timeline for implementing the program-specific decisions in this document.
Decisions from the course and degree audits and a final program-specific implementation plan and timeline are due in the Provost's Office September 26, 2008.
Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences
- Phase out the undergraduate major in forestry and retain forestry programs only in support of areas of emphases within natural resources (e.g., wildlife science, water resources management).
