Proposal Changes: |
New: The change is merely a small catalog
description change as requested by Professor Kia Bazargan as related to course
content. Old: The changes proposed do not actually change the
structure of the course. Instead it subsumes the currently separate EE
361 into 2361 as a third component. This is being done simply to make
scheduling easier. |

BIOC 5444 and PHSL 5444, and those courses should be listed as equivalents with
BMEN 5444 (don't know why they are not now?). The course will still be offered
under the BIOC and PHSL designators, we are just removing the BMEN designator

Proposal Changes: |
New: This class has had a pre-requisite of just
'CSE Student' previously. We are wishing to ensure that only UD CSE students
can access some of our 3xxx classes, including EE 3025. This is due to some
recent issues where non eligible ECE students have been able to access and take
UD EE classes to force themselves into our majors; this impacts fairness of
access, circumvents admission processes and undermines the Academic Advising we
offer students. We wish to close out this loophole. The change is made with the
approval of Professor Leger (DUGS), Professor Bazargan on behalf of the ECE
Curriculum Committee and on the recommendation of Dave Finlayson (CSE).

Proposal Changes: |
New: Only change is updating grade basis options
from "A-F only" to "A-F or AUD," per the instructor's request. Old:
Switching from spring to fall course beginning Fall 2015. Because of
semester shift, we need to change the prereqs. Previously a fall course, BMEn
5411, was a hard prereq, but now they are offered in the same semester. So the
instructor is updating the content so that 5411 is no longer a prereq, and we
have updated the prerequisites accordingly. |
