3 Program Overview Troy University offers an undergraduate Political Science Major at the Troy Campus, Montgomery Campus, and through the online facilities of ecampus In-class and ecampus undergraduate Political Science courses also support Troy University s General Studies Program and Political Science Minor Troy University s Undergraduate Political Science Major provides focused study in three concentrations American Politics International Politics Public Administration
4 Program Overview Troy University Political Science full-time faculty are assigned as follows: Full-time Adjunct Troy 6 2 Montgomery 1 3 ecampus 4 13 Dothan 1 0 Full-time faculty from Montgomery, Dothan, and Troy may also teach online courses for ecampus.
5 Academic Discipline Committee (ADC) ADC Representatives Troy Campus Charles Krupnick Montgomery Campus Thomas S. Kolasa Dothan Campus Richard Martin ecampus William McDaniel ADC Annual Meeting Date and Location March 18, 2010 at the Troy Campus Attendees Charles Krupnick, Thomas S. Kolasa, William McDaniel, and Samuel Shelton (Political Science instructor at the Troy campus); the meeting proposals and recommendations were vetted with Richard Martin by he contributed to the courses of action Topics covered Program Strengths and Weaknesses A strength of the Political Science Majors program was the high quality of its instructors and the growth of the program on ecampus and the Montgomery campus A weakness of the program was the low percentage of courses taught on ecampus by full-time Troy instructors; this could be aggravated over the next few years by the possibility of retirement by two or three full-time Political Science instructors The pending hiring of four full-time Master of International Relations instructors will provide additional Political Science resources, but the management of instructor assets in the coming years will require difficult tradeoffs The members were pleased to get together and looked forward to future meetings.
6 Academic Discipline Committee (ADC) ADC Annual Meeting (continued) Topics covered Student Learning Assessment The Political Science Major Field Test (MFT) currently used is adequate but includes comparative government, a concentration not offered by Troy University; the MFT also has a low rate of participation Action: Continue using the MFT through fall 2011; work to change the assessment means for spring 2011 Student Research Assessment POL 3300 Foundations of Political Science is a required course for the Political Science Major; it has a research methods component and is a suitable measure of undergraduate research achievement Action: Adopt POL 3300 as the Political Science Major measure of student research achievement; the assessment measure will be that 60% of students taking POL 3300 will achieve a B or better in the course; strengthen the emphasis on research intent and measurement in the course objectives Update course offerings for the Political Science Major to include new courses on Southern Politics and the Politics of Asia Action: The Chair will prepare and submit an Undergraduate Catalog change proposal by June 1, 2010, to include the addition of courses on Southern Politics and the Politics of Asia
7 Academic Discipline Committee (ADC) (continued) ADC Annual Meeting (continued) Topics covered General Studies course POL 2241 American National Government has used American Government: Institutions and Policies by James Q. Wilson and John J. Dilulio, Jr. as its textbook for several years; while an excellent resource, it is also very expensive considerably more so than some available alternatives Action: Retain the Wilson text for academic year , but negotiate potential lower cost alternatives for the text such as loose leaf and rented books; ADC members will evaluate alternative textbooks during academic year Student attitude survey data is currently drawn from a Troy University provided central data base; student participation is not high and reports are difficult to read Action: The Chair will look into improving the current survey process and investigate alternatives; he will report status and recommendations to the ADC by the end of fall semester 2010
8 As a result of prior assessment and plans for improvement, the program has achieved these Recent Improvements: Program A summer study abroad program to be held at the University of Padova, Italy, was fully organized; it will not be conducted, however, because an insufficient number of students were able to commit to the program General J. Gary Cooper former US Ambassador to Jamaica is Troy University Ambassador in Residence for ; he participated in events at the Troy and Montgomery campuses during October 2009 Troy Campus Dr. Steven L. Taylor was selected for promotion to Professor Dr. Charles Krupnick was selected for promotion to Associate Professor The Department of Political Science and the Political Science Club ran a highly successful Constitution Day program that included in-class presentations, posters advertising the event with copies of the Bill of Rights, and an actual-sized Constitution that all students and faculty were invited to sign; pocket-sized Constitutions and Political Science labeled tablets were also distributed A lighted display case was installed near the Department of Political Science Office in MSCX to highlight the department s undergraduate major and graduate Students of the Year and the Troy University Ambassador in Residence Dr. Thomas Kolasa, a full-time instructor at the Troy Montgomery campus, has begun teaching Political Science courses at the Troy campus as well
9 Recent Improvements (cont.) Montgomery Campus Dr. Thomas Kolasa was certified and selected to teach the master s level course IR 6685 Terrorism and Political Violence during summer 2010 at the Troy University site in Kadena AFB, Okinawa, Japan Dr. Kolasa created a new POL 4494 Select Topics course called 20 th Century Wars Dr. Kolasa went to the Teaching & Learning Conference of the American Political Science Association to present a paper on Troy University and the challenges it faces with its diverse student body New state-of-the-art computer labs have been completed for use by all fields at the Montgomery Campus; Political Science intends to access them for future political simulation hybrid courses being developed by Dr. Kolasa Dr. Kolasa continued to be the Advisor for the History & Social Science Association (HSSA), which does workshops, educational films, and field-trips HSSA, which consists mostly of Political Science students, did a Constitution Day table; they handed out US Constitutions and answered questions from passersby HSSA also had field trips to the U.S.S. Alabama Museum & Memorial (Mobile, AL) and the Space Center (Huntsville, AL) ecampus Undergraduate Political Science courses taught on ecampus are routinely evaluated through participation in the ecampus Quality Assessment program
