Yes for Math Course, No for professional core courses What is the requirement and why must we implement it? Students must complete 6 hours of mathematics that may include MAC 1105, 1114, 1140, 1147, 2233, 2311, 2312, 2313, MAP 2302, MAS 2103, MGF 1106, 1107, STA 2023 to graduate. Has history shown students need this course/program for some reason? Yes, Math is a general education core requirement. 4

5 Will this meet some specific workforce, university transfer or student success need? No Are there partners, grant requirements, faculty collaborations or other reasons leading to the development of this course/program? No Please add any additional information to provide background for this submission. Adding the math requirement for the program to MAC 1105 or higher will avoid the need for the program director to continuously submit course substitutions for students holding higher level math courses. The certification and licensure agency for histotechnicians and histotechnlogists (American Society for Clinical Pathologists as well as the Florida Board of Clinical Laboratory Personnel), requires 60 semester hours of academic credit or an associate degree from a regionally accredited college/university, with a combination of 12 semester hours of biology and chemistry. We accept a great number of students that have completed at least intro to chemistry CHM1025C and CHM2045C General Chemistry, and may have already taken BSC2011C General Biology II and not the required CHM2046C. IN the past we have been submitting BSC2011C as a course substitution for CHM2046C. It is our desire to have the student either opt for BSC2011C or CHM2046C. The proposal also clarifies the co- and pre-requisites for the clinical phase of the program. 13. Rationale/need for the above action(s). Is there a need for this course/program in our service district? Yes, placement rate for 2013 was 90%. How will this impact student success for upper division instruction or job placement? It will not impact student success in these areas. If the College already has a similar course/program, why are we developing this program/course and what are the differences between the programs and courses? N/A How many students and what businesses or transfer institutions will benefit? Does this course/program support a College goal or initiative? This program supports College Goal One. Please add any additional information to provide rationale for this submission. The way that the course pre-requisites stand now, students in the HT program can select any of the courses available since there are no pre-requisites attached to them. The HT program has been designed to follow a sequential pattern of progression through its various courses offered within the program. 14. Others s Impacted: s or courses affected by this proposal: Identify other existing programs of study or courses that this proposal will affect, and explain how they will be affected. ( title, program code, required or elective). No other courses or programs will be affected. 15. Articulations: If there are existing internal or external (inter-institutional) articulation agreements that will be impacted by this proposal request, please identify and contact as appropriate: N/A Courses intended for transfer and External Upper division articulations (2+2): Contact Liberal Arts Department at Internal articulations (PSAV to AS) and external articulations (Industry certification to AS): Contact Workforce Development at to update agreement. Copies of active internal and external agreements can be found here Financial Information: Special fees: A Special Fee Request form must be completed and sent to Finance, Attention: Controller. Budget and Department must be filled in for all new programs and courses. Please contact the Director of Budget and Financial Planning at with any budget questions. Budget number: N/A Department: N/A Must be provided for all NEW programs or curriculum package will not go for recommendation. 17. Fiscal Notes: This response must include specific information on the financial impact to students and the institution. This section should be concise, unless there are special circumstances related to the course/program. Please answer the following questions. *If answer yes, explanation must be included. Will there be unusual costs to students? No Are faculty salaries to teach course/program higher or lower than standard rates? No 5

6 Will additional staff or faculty be required, and if so, what are the costs to the institution? No Will the institution have to purchase additional equipment, supplies, software, and/or materials not currently owned by the College? No Are there grant or business partnerships that will provide funds to establish the course/program? No Will business partnerships cover the course/program costs? No 18. Evaluation: This response requests specific information on how you will assess the effectiveness of the course/program as it benefits students and the college. This section is also concise but should address the following: credit transfer course: review of student enrollment, completion and grades, as well as students ability to move to higher level courses if applicable; credit or non-credit workforce: review of student enrollment, completion, job placement, as well as business involvement in development, revision and evaluation of the course/program and student success; and adult education courses should include the same information as credit transfer courses but should also include job placement analysis. The effectiveness and success of these changes will be determined by the reduction of course substitutions for Area 03: (05A) and Area 06: (06A). Students will progress through the courses sequentially, which will improve retention and completion rate. 19. Do you feel that this proposal will have any special impact on the recruitment and retention of disadvantaged students? If so, please explain. Special impact on recruitment and retention of disadvantaged students is not anticipated. 20. Answer the following (if appropriate).
