Accounting

This major helps prepare students for careers in public, industrial, or governmental accounting and also provides an appropriate background for those planning to enter law school or graduate school. Public accounting is carried on by independent practitioners, most of whom are certified public accountants. In addition to independent audits, CPAs render accounting, tax, and management advisory services. The credit requirements to sit for the CPA examination in Pennsylvania and many other states are automatically met by completing the prescribed curriculum. However, there are exceptions, including New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Texas. For more detailed information, see brochures in the department office.

The industrial accountant, as an executive in a business firm, is in charge of designing and supervising the financial and managerial accounting system, including the preparation and analysis of reports. Many are now taking the Certified Management Accountant (CMA) exam. It is a two-day exam covering economics, finance, management, decision analysis, information systems, and accounting. Governmental accountants occupy positions in federal, state, and local government and perform services similar to those of public or industrial accountants.

Geobiology

PROFESSOR KATHERINE H. FREEMAN

Geobiology is the interdisciplinary study of the Earth and it biosphere. It embraces the history of life and its interactions with the earth over geologic time; it also includes study of interactions between living organisms and physical and chemical processes in the modern environment on earth, and possibly elsewhere in the universe. Thus, geobiology encompasses the fields of paleobiology and paleontology, biogeochemistry, geomicrobiology and astrobiology. The degree program provides students with a strong background in general science and especially in Geosciences and Biology, with core selections from both disciplines. Students gain practical field experience in the study of the physical environment and ecological properties. The senior thesis provides students with hands-on research experience, as well as an emphasis on data synthesis and the written expression of scientific observations and ideas. Students will be well prepared for advanced studies in this emerging discipline, and for careers in the environmental sciences. Geobiology is critical to the study of environmental quality, global change and environmental-human health interactions, all of which have profound importance in legal, economic, and policy arenas.

For the B.S. degree in Geobiology, a minimum of 121 credits is required.

Architectural Engineering

PROFESSOR RICHARD A. BEHR, Head, Department of Architectural Engineering (A E)

This major emphasizes the application of scientific and engineering principles to the planning, design, and construction of buildings and building systems. The goal of the program is to provide engineering graduates with the best education available for careers in the building professions. Graduates will have the ability to practice as registered professional engineers in a variety of areas, both public and private, related to the planning, design, construction, and operation of buildings and to assume a place of leadership in society.

Four options are available in the ten-semester major: the Construction option, which emphasizes building construction engineering and construction management; the Lighting/Electrical option, which emphasizes the design of lighting and electrical systems for buildings; the Mechanical option, which emphasizes the design of heating, ventilating and air-conditioning systems in buildings; and the Structural option, which emphasizes the analysis and design of building structural systems. Courses in architectural design are included in all options to give the engineering student an understanding of architectural design and its relation to engineering. Courses in engineering design are provided throughout the program. The design experience is culminated in a year-long capstone design course. The major is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology.

A limited number of undergraduate students in the B.A.E. program will be considered for admission to the integrated undergraduate/graduate program leading to the B.A.E. and the M.A.E. degrees. Students who are currently enrolled in the 7th semester of the B.A.E degree program may be admitted to the integrated B.A.E./M.A.E. program, following a positive review of an application specific to this program by the faculty committee on graduate admissions. Students must have attained a GPA of at least 3.0 and must have attained a grade of C or better in all classes listed as A E. Students admitted to the integrated program must maintain a GPA in all classes used toward the M.A.E. degree of at least 3.0.

The professional degree, Bachelor of Architectural Engineering, is granted upon the satisfactory completion of the five-year program.

B.A.E. Program Educational Objectives:
1. Maintain a high quality student body that is dedicated to a future professional career in the building industry.
2. Provide an educational experience that prepares our graduates to meet the challenges of their profession, both now and in the future.
3. Promote a high level of scholarship by emphasizing application of fundamental to solving problems of a professional nature.
4. Provide an educational program founded on the interdisciplinary nature of the practice of architectural engineering.
5. Provide interactions with the profession and public that will promote our graduates' involvement in professional activities and service to society throughout their career.

For the B.A.E. degree in Architectural Engineering, a minimum of 168 credits is required.

For the integrated B.A.E./M.A.E. degrees, a minimum of 180 credits of course work is required.

Italian

The major offers training in the skills required for fluency in Italian and knowledge in Italian culture, civilization, and literature. Its aim is to open to the student both the traditions of one of the major formative components of the Western world and the continuing vitality of modern Italian and Italian-American life.

As one of the humanistic programs of the College of the Liberal Arts, the Italian major is not designed to be directly vocational. Nevertheless, rigorous training in either of the two Italian major options can prepare students for rewarding and unique careers in business, travel, ministry, banking, and education. In addition, the federal government employs liberal arts graduates with foreign-language skills in organizations including the National Security Agency, the Central Intelligence Agency, the U.S. Information Agency, and the Department of Labor. The Italian major is also preparatory for graduate work directed to the Ph.D. degree required for teaching and research in colleges and universities. Students with degrees in the humanities are particularly successful applicants to professional schools, such as law and medicine.

For the B.A. degree in Italian, a minimum of 122 credits is required for the Italian Language and Literature option, or 123 credits minimum is required for the Italian Studies option.

Organizational Leadership

University Park, College of the Liberal Arts (OLEAD): offered via World Campus and Continuing Education

The degree draws on many of the disciplines of the liberal arts to illuminate the issues that all leaders face regarding work and employment issues in the 21st Century. Students select courses in English, crime, law, and justice, economics, political science, sociology, labor and industrial relations, communication arts and sciences, and psychology. The goal is to provide a broad education that introduces methods of analysis used in the disciplines of the liberal arts and prepares students to understand the complex social, cultural, and organizational issues that they will confront in leadership positions in the modern world. This degree program requires that students develop competency in four critical areas and then apply those skills in disciplinary perspectives. All students are expected to develop proficiency in research methodology, critical analysis, communication skills, and the application of theory. Students can expect to learn and practice skills that focus on understanding how organizations function both formally and informally and how individuals function within organizations.

For the B.S. degree in Organizational Leadership, a minimum of 123 credits is required.

Forensic Science

University Park, The Eberly College of Science

Forensic Science is the application of scientific principles and methods to assist criminal and civil investigations and litigations. This Forensic Science undergraduate major is an intercollege collaboration among academic units relevant to forensic science. The major provides students with a strong foundation in the biological and physical sciences and introduces them to relevant topics in forensic chemistry, forensic anthropology, forensic biology and appropriate social sciences. Students are educated on the role of forensic scientists in the criminal justice system and how scientific evidence can be used in that system. Graduates of this major could pursue employment as a scientist in a federal, state, or private crime laboratory or with insurance companies, homeland security agencies, or the judicial community. Graduates could also choose to pursue graduate study in forensics, possibly specializing is areas such as forensic psychology, anthropology, pathology, odontology, entomology, or toxicology.

For the B.S in Forensic Science, a minimum of 124 credits are required.

Proposed effective date: Spring Semester 2005

Energy, Environmental, and Mineral Economics (ENNEC)

ADAM Z. ROSE, Department Head
2217 Earth-Engineering Sciences Building
814-865-2549

Degrees Conferred: Ph.D., M.S.

The program, which until spring 1997 was called Mineral Economics, helps students to apply economic analysis to energy, environmental, and mineral problems, particularly those relevant to long-term development. Students may work in such areas as nonrenewable resource and environmental economics (policy, area studies, or global change); commodity market analysis (energy, minerals, or materials); energy economics (conventional and alternative fuels, regulation, or economy and environmental interactions); business economics (management, market research, or finance); or operations research and econometrics (resource allocation, decision theory, forecasting, or model building).

Enrollment is kept at levels that ensure that students work closely on their research with the faculty and can interact regularly with each other. M.S. training leads to employment opportunities in consulting firms; government agencies; environmental affairs; and businesses concerned with the extraction, processing, or use of materials broadly defined. The Ph.D. program is oriented toward research careers in universities, government, and industry.

Admission Requirements

Scores from the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) or the Graduate Management Admission test (GMAT) are required for admission. Requirements listed here in addition to general Graduate School requirements stated in the GENERAL INFORMATION section of the Graduate Bulletin. Applicants are encouraged to complete their files (including test scores) by February 15 to receive maximum consideration for financial aid.

The program is designed to accommodate students with either a science and engineering or a social science background. Admission to the master's degree program is largely determined on the basis of achievement of a junior/senior grade point average of 3.00 or better (on a 4.00 scale), above-average scores on the GRE or GMAT, and prior course work in intermediate microeconomics, fundamentals of statistics, and calculus. A prior master's degree is not required for admission to the Ph.D. program. Admission to the Ph.D. program requires a 3.50 or better in the applicant's prior degree program, strong GRE or GMAT scores, and previous course preparation.

Degree Requirements

The core courses in energy, environmental, and mineral economics, economics, statistics, and other related fields are similar for all graduate students. At the M.S. level, the core courses in the department and in the Department of Economics constitute much of the program requirements. In addition to the normal degree requirements of the Graduate School, candidates for the M.S. degree must write a thesis or professional paper and defend it orally. M.S. students are required to take 9 to 12 credits in mathematics, statistics, and computer science either before admission or as courses taken in addition to the minimum required for the M.S. degree.

The Ph.D. program offers opportunities for students to receive training in advanced theory and application of economic analysis and to undertake independent, high-level research. Doctoral candidates must complete at least 15 credits in economics (including courses used for admission).

The candidacy examination for the doctorate is oral. The oral examination for the M.S. degree at Penn State may be used as the candidacy examination for the doctorate. If that is done, the M.S. examination is more detailed and broader in scope than it would be for the M.S. alone. The comprehensive examination for the doctorate includes written examinations in the core program and special fields in addition to the oral examination required by the Graduate School. The communication requirement is satisfied by departmentally approved courses in statistics and mathematics. There is no foreign language requirement.

Other Relevant Information

Students in this program may elect the dual-title program in Operations Research for the Ph.D. and M.S. degrees. (See also Operations Research.)

This intercollege master's degree program, available at Penn State University Park, and Penn State Harrisburg, deals with the various aspects of air, land, and water pollution control. Graduate instruction is under the direction of an interdisciplinary faculty committee and the departments participating in the program. The EPC faculty have teaching and research interests in the area of environmental pollution control, and where projects are being funded, support opportunities may be available. Currently, faculty from sixteen departments in four colleges are participating in the program at University Park and faculty from four graduate programs participate at Penn State Harrisburg. A student is affiliated with one of these departments on the basis of his/her specific area of interest and is advised by an EPC faculty member in that department. Maximum flexibility is maintained by the program in an effort to meet both the needs of the individual student and the pollution control activity in which he/she wants to participate.

Admission Requirements

Requirements listed here are in addition to general Graduate School requirements stated in the GENERAL INFORMATION section of the Graduate Bulletin.

The EPC program is designed for students with backgrounds in science or engineering. Admission will be granted if the applicant has the necessary program prerequisites and a faculty member in the student's interest area agrees to serve as adviser. Normal admission requirements include mathematics through integral calculus plus two courses each in both general chemistry and physics.

Students with a 3.00 junior/senior average and with appropriate backgrounds in mathematics and science will be considered for admission. The best-qualified applicants will be admitted up to the number of places that are available for new students. Applicants to the Environmental Pollution Control program are required to provide a statement of objectives, three letters of recommendation, and scores from the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) Aptitude Test (verbal, quantitative, analytical) to complete the admission process. Entering graduate students for whom English is not their first language are required to have a score of at least 560 on the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) examination. There is no foreign language requirement.

Degree Requirements

All candidates are required to take a core course in each of four environmental areas--air, water, solid waste, hazardous waste management, and policy/risk--and 1 credit of the E P C 590 seminar for a minimum core requirement of 12 credits. All but 6 of the total 30 credits required must be selected from a recommended course list. If the option to prepare a thesis is selected (M.S. only), students must schedule at least 12 credits at the 500 level, take at least 6 credits of 600-level thesis research in their thesis adviser's academic department, and write a thesis on an area concerned with environmental pollution. Only 6 credits of 600-level course work may count toward the 30-credit minimum degree requirement. Students who select the nonthesis option must schedule at least 15 credits at the 500 level, which may include 1 credit of E P C 590 and a maximum of 3 paper-writing credits. The M.E.P.C. E P C degree require submission of a scholarly master's paper.

Watershed Stewardship Option

The Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship is a graduate option intended to provide enhanced educational opportunities for students with an interest in water resources management who are enrolled in a graduate degree program within Environmental Pollution Control at the University Park campus. The objective of the Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship is to educate students to facilitate team-oriented, community-based watershed management planning directed at natural resources conservation and environmental problems encountered in Pennsylvania communities, especially non-point source water pollution. The Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship requires 22 credits of graduate coursework: 12 credits of breadth courses, 2 credits of Watershed Stewardship Seminar courses (FOR 591A and FOR 591B or LARCH 510.2), and 8 credits of Watershed Stewardship Practicum I and II courses (FOR 570 and FOR 571 or LARCH 540.2 and LARCH 550.2). Breadth courses will consist of three graduate credits of coursework from each of four subject matter areas: 1) water resources science, 2) social science, public policy and economics, 3) humanities, and 4) communications and design. In the watershed stewardship practicum courses students work in teams with community, government and business leaders to analyze and understand natural resources and environmental pollution problems and creatively synthesize appropriate solutions in the form of a written watershed management plan.

A representative pattern of scheduling for the Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship in addition to a student�s other degree requirements might be:

First Year:

Fall Semester
Breadth electives�6 credits
FOR 591A or LARCH 510.2
Watershed Stewardship Issues
Colloquium, 1 credit

Spring Semester
Breadth electives�6 credits
FOR 591B or LARCH 510.2
Watershed Stewardship
Planning Colloquium, 1 credit

Second Year:

Fall Semester
FOR 570 or LARCH 540.2�3 credits
Keystone Project

Spring Semester
FOR 571 or LARCH 550.2�5 credits
Keystone Project

A list of acceptable breadth courses from each category is provided in the Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship Handbook. Students will be allowed to petition to the Center for Watershed Stewardship to substitute higher level or equivalent courses in a major field to suit their specific backgrounds and goals. Courses taken for the Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship may be used to satisfy other EPC degree requirements with concurrence of their adviser and graduate committee and only if such courses are approved EPC core requirements or are on the currently approved list of additional 400- and 500-level course for the EPC major. The graduate committee for a student enrolled in the Option in Watershed Stewardship must include a faculty representative from the Center for Watershed Stewardship.

Students enrolled in M.E.P.C. or M.S. degree program within Environmental Pollution Control may apply to participate in the Graduate Option in Watershed Stewardship. EPC students may prepare their thesis or paper on a topic related to their watershed management plan, but the thesis or paper must reflect independent thought and scholarly effort above and beyond the requirements of FOR 570 and FOR 571 or LARCH 540.2 and LARCH 550.2.

Penn State Harrisburg School of Science, Engineering, and Technology
Penn State Dickinson School of Law

Degrees Conferred: J.D. (Dickinson) M.E.P.C., M.S. (Penn State Harrisburg)

Degrees

The Penn State Dickinson School of Law and the Intercollege Graduate Program in Environmental Pollution Control (EPC) offer a coordinated program leading to the degrees of Juris Doctor (J.D.) and Master of Environmental Pollution Control (M.E.P.C.), or Master of Science in EPC (M.S.).

The EPC programs are interdisciplinary, dealing with all aspects of controlling air, water, and solid waste pollution and disposal. The master of engineering degree is designed for those with an undergraduate degree in engineering, while the master of environmental pollution control degree is for those with science or nontechnical backgrounds. The master of science degree is intended for those students who wish to intensively pursue a research area as part of their master's degree work.

Admission to the Program

In order to be admitted to the program, students must first be admitted to Dickinson under its regular admission procedures. Students are admitted to begin classes in the fall only. Dickinson will screen potential program candidates, and need not forward applications of all Dickinson admittees who have expressed an interest in the EPC programs. Dickinson can withhold support for some admittees until they have demonstrated proficiency in their legal studies and a capacity for dual-degree study. The EPC program at Penn State Harrisburg will make an independent admission decision as to all dual-degree applicants.

Admission Requirements

Dickinson. A bachelor's or equivalent degree from an accredited college is a prerequisite for admission. However, there is no standard prescribed undergraduate curriculum. An applicant should have acquired significant oral and written communication skills before entering law school. The following are required of applicants: complete application form for Dickinson; taking of the Law School Admission Test (LSAT); completion of an LSDAS report; a one-page personal statement; employment record since high school; two recommendations.

EPC. A bachelor's degree in engineering from an accredited program is required for the Master of Engineering degree program. For the Environmental Pollution Control program, a bachelor's degree is required, including courses in mathematics through integral calculus and two courses each in both general physics and chemistry. If the applicant has not had experience with aspects of environmental engineering or science, completion of ENVE 397 Introduction to Environmental Engineering and Science or C E 297B Water Pollution Control is strongly suggested prior to the start of the graduate course work in the program. A completed Graduate School application form also is required.

Sequence

Students complete the first year of the J.D. program before beginning the EPC program. (While students might take courses in the EPC program prior to enrollment at Dickinson, credit for those courses may not count toward the J.D. degree.) Thereafter, students may concurrently enroll in courses in the J.D. and the EPC programs provided that they abide by the requirements of each program.

Interprogram Transfer of Credits

J.D. A maximum of 12 credits for EPC course work may be transferred for credit toward the J.D. degree at Dickinson. Courses for which such credit may be applied shall be subject to approval by the Dickinson faculty. Students must obtain a grade satisfactory to Dickinson for the course work to be credited toward the J.D. degree.

M.E.P.C. A maximum of 12 credits of Dickinson course work may be counted for credit toward this degree, subject to EPC approval based on the relevance to the MEPC degree program. No course work at Dickinson may be used to satisfy the master's paper requirement of the MEPC degree program. However, a member of the Penn State graduate faculty from Dickinson may be designated as a reader for the master's project.

M.S. in EPC. A maximum of 8 credits of Dickinson course work may be counted for credit toward this degree, subject to EPC approval based on relevance to the degree program. No course work at Dickinson may be used to satisfy the master's paper requirement of the M.Eng. degree program or the thesis requirement of the M.S. degree. However, a member of Penn State graduate faculty from Dickinson may be designated as a reader for the master's project.

Recommended Program of Study and Advising

All students in the program have two advisers, one from Dickinson and one from EPC (Penn State Harrisburg). Periodic interaction between the two advisers is encouraged. A program of study is developed for each student, taking into account the fact that some courses at both locations are offered on a rotating basis. Many courses are offered every year, but some are offered every two or three years. Advisers will have available a list of projected relevant offerings in order to work with the student on an individualized program of study.

Tuition

Students will be charged the applicable Dickinson tuition to cover the J.D. program and graduate tuition on a per credit (in-state) rate of the EPC courses.

Graduation

A student in the program may complete the requirements for one of the degrees, and be awarded that degree, prior to completing all the requirements for the other degree. All courses in one program that will count toward meeting the requirements of the other program must be completed before awarding the first degree.
