Department of Organizational Behavior and Environment

NON-SUBSTANTIVE CHANGE

Real Estate and Land Use Affairs Concentration

Justification:
• Reflects minor name change to OBE 145.
• Addition of OBE 140 and OBE 149 as required courses.
• Deletion of OBE 19 and OBE 141 as required course.
• Addition of prerequisites and change in prerequisite language for OBE 142, OBE 143 and OBE 149

The purpose of the proposed changes is to reflect a different focus in the Real Estate and Land Use Concentration from sales and brokerage to Urban Land Development. The Real Estate and Land Use Minor will allow students the sales and brokerage focus.

This change is the result of recommendations from alumni, review of the successful undergraduate and graduate Real Estate programs in California and the East Coast, and extensive discussions among the RELUA faculty. The RELUA faculty believes that the proposed changes are supported by

• The CBA mission:“ . . . dedicated to the success of its students by providing quality bachelor’s . . . degree programs in business administration with concentrations appropriate primarily to the greater Capital Region . . .” and
• The 4th and 5th goal statements [“Graduate students with a strong, modern foundation in business knowledge, skills, and values that prepares them to adapt successfully to the professional world” and “Provide opportunities for specialization at both the bachelor's and masters' levels that reflect the diverse interests of students and employers in the region”].

The proposed changes maintain the total number of units at 21 (3 lower division and 18 upper division units) and do not have identifiable fiscal or programmatic impact on the offerings of other academic units.

NEW PROGRAM

Real Estate and Land Use Affairs Concentration (21 units)

The Real Estate and Land Use Affairs area of concentration is intended for students preparing for careers within the real estate industry, such as governmental and private positions relating to land development, planning, environmental regulation and finance; positions with lending institutions; management positions in public and private corporations concerned with investment, site location or eminent domain; and positions related to the marketing or sales and brokerage of real estate. Completion of the courses required for this concentration may qualify students to take the California Department of Real Estate Broker's exam. In addition, this area will prepare the student for personal investment decision-making.

Department of Special Education, Rehabilitation and School Psychology

Justification: This proposal is for the addition of a School Psychology Option to the current Master of Arts in Education. As this degree option is implemented the current Master of Science in Counseling will be phased out.

In addition, it was recommended by our external evaluator during our last program review. As part of the proposal one new course is being planned, one new elective is being included, courses are being dropped and three course changes are proposed.

American Sign Language/Deaf Studies

Justification: This proposal is for a minor in ASL/Deaf Studies within the Department of Special Education, Rehabilitation, and School Psychology. There is a need for people with signing skills to become interpreters, teachers, counselors, audiologists, etc. working with the deaf. These people require background knowledge and training in sign language and the Deaf community in order to properly do their jobs within the sociocultural context. There are currently no such degree programs in northern California providing this educational background.

American Sign Language & Deaf Studies takes an interdisciplinary approach to the study of deaf and hard-of-hearing people in American and world society. The program promotes the understanding of Deaf people as a linguistic and cultural group and encourages students to analyze existing stereotypes and policies relating to deaf and hard-of-hearing people in order to work both within their own communities and others in effecting change for the betterment of the deaf and hard-of-hearing community.

With an ASL/Deaf Studies Minor, students may obtain entry-level jobs in settings working with the deaf such as residential supervisor, classroom aide, vocational trainer, and much more. Students may also combine an ASL/Deaf Studies minor with a related Major field of study such as Education, Counseling, Audiology and Speech Therapy for a more well-rounded grounding in the issues relating to the deaf and hard of hearing in their fields. Students in fields which are not specifically deaf-related such as nursing, law, computer engineering, and many more may also experience an edge in gaining employment, whether in deaf-related settings or not, with a minor in ASL/Deaf Studies compared to those without similar coursework or experience. Further, students having completed the ASL/Deaf Studies Minor may be able to waive similar coursework at other universities with specialized fields of study relating to deafness that may not be offered in the Sacramento region.
To qualify for the ASL/Deaf Studies Minor, students must complete the following courses (20 units):

EDS 150: Beginning American Sign Language 1A (3)
EDS 151: Beginning American Sign Language 1B (3)
EDS 152: Intermediate American Sign Language (4)
EDS 153: Advanced ASL: Instructing and Informing (4)
EDS 160: Deaf History and Education (3)
EDS 161: Deaf Community and Culture (3)
