Minutes
- Called to order at 2:06pm.
- Minutes from Oct 13, 2016 were approved.
- The committee discussed ECE 313 and the two different versions (sections A-E, section F) being offered in Spring 2016.
- The discussion was motivated by the 2015-2016 Curriculum Committee report, specifically the statement:
Certain exceptions to the “unified” nature of multi-section courses can be considered (e.g., the “CompE” version of ECE 313 that has been offered in the past) with the approval of the course director. This approach can be viewed as an experimental method that allows for innovation within the curriculum. However, a mechanism to communicate this non-standard approach to students needs to be developed, such as utilizing the x98 nomenclature. Similarly, we should consider denoting this on a student’s transcript for the benefit of graduate schools and employers.
