HISTORY OF OSUFounded in 1858 as a small, privateacademy called Corvallis College,Oregon State University has developedinto a major teaching, research, andpublic service institution.

College-level courses were introducedinto the curriculum about 1865, and twomen and one woman fulfilled therequirements for baccalaureate degreesin 1870, becoming the first graduates ofa state-assisted college in the westernUnited States.

In its early days, Corvallis College wasmaintained by the Methodist EpiscopalChurch, South, and was only partlystate-supported. The state assumedcomplete control in 1885.

With that assumption of state control,the college became known as OregonAgricultural College. The name waschanged to Oregon State College in the1920s and to Oregon State University onMarch 6, 1961.

In designating Corvallis College asOregon’s agricultural institution, thestate legislature accepted the provisionsof the Morrill Act, signed into law byPresident Abraham Lincoln on July 2,1862. The act provided grants of land tobe used by states for the sole purpose ofendowing, supporting, and maintainingpublicly controlled colleges.

State assistance to higher education inOregon started on October 27, 1868,

when Corvallis College was designatedas “the agricultural college of the state ofOregon.”

Following designation of the collegeas a land grant institution, agriculturewas added to the existing arts andscience curriculum in 1869. Thecurriculum continued to expand, withprofessorships in commerce (1880),agriculture (1883), household economy(1889), and engineering (1889) resultingin the establishment in 1908 of theprofessional schools of commerce,agriculture, home economics, andengineering. The first summer sessionwas also held in 1908.

Curricular growth continued with theschools of forestry (1913), mines (1913),pharmacy (1917), education (1918),basic arts and sciences (1922), andhealth and physical education (1931).

In 1932, the Oregon State Board ofHigher Education established the Schoolof Science for the state system atCorvallis, eliminated the School ofMines, and reduced the School of Healthand Physical Education to a division.Major work in business administrationwas discontinued but was reinstatedwhen the College of Business wasestablished (first as a division) in 1943.The College of Liberal Arts was estab-lished (as the School of Humanities andSocial Sciences) in 1959, and the Collegeof Oceanography was created (as aschool) in 1972 (now the College ofOceanic and Atmospheric Sciences). TheCollege of Health and Physical Educa-tion (now the College of Health andHuman Sciences) was reinstated (as aschool) in 1974, and the College ofVeterinary Medicine was established (asa school) the following year. In 1983, allschools of the university, except theSchool of Education, were redesignatedas colleges. In 1989, the School ofEducation became a college. In 1991, theCollege of Education merged with theCollege of Home Economics, and withinthe College of Home Economics andEducation, being renamed the School ofEducation in the merger process. In 1995the University Honors College wasestablished. In 2002, the College ofHealth and Human Performance and theCollege of Home Economics andEducation were merged into the Collegeof Health and Human Sciences.

DETERMINING RESIDENCYFOR FEE PURPOSES

In determining a student’s residency, theOSU Office of Admissions follows theadministrative rules of the State Board ofHigher Education on residence classifica-tion, excerpted below.

RESIDENCE CLASSIFICATIONPOLICY: PROCEDURESDefinitions (580-010-0029)For the purpose of OAR 580-010-0030through 580-010-0045, the followingwords and phrases mean:1. “Domicile” is a person’s true, fixed,

and permanent home and place ofhabitation. It is the place where aperson intends to remain and towhich the person expects to returnwhen the person leaves withoutintending to establish a newdomicile elsewhere. In order toestablish a domicile in Oregon, aperson must maintain a predomi-nant physical presence in Oregonfor 12 consecutive months aftermoving to the state.

2. A “financially independent person”is a person who, at the time ofapplication for residency status:a. declares himself or herself to be

financially independent;b. has not been claimed as a

dependent during the immedi-ately preceding tax year, and willnot be claimed as a dependentduring the current tax year, onthe federal or state income taxreturns of any other person; and

c. has not received in the immedi-ately preceding calendar year, andwill not receive during the currentcalendar year, one-half or more ofhis or her support, in cash or inkind, from another person orpersons, except for supportreceived from his or her spouse.

3. A “financially dependent person” isa person who, at the time ofapplication for residency status:a. declares himself or herself to be

financially dependent; andb. has been claimed as a dependent

on the federal and state incometax returns of another personduring the immediately precedingtax year.

Determination of Residence(580-010-0030)1. For purposes of admission and

instruction fee assessment, OUSinstitutions shall classify a studentas Oregon resident or nonresident.In determining resident or nonresi-dent classification, the primary issueis a person’s intent in coming to

33

Oregon. Intent is inferred from aperson’s conduct and history as theyrelate to the requirements of theseresidency rules. If a person is inOregon primarily for the purpose ofobtaining an education, that personwill be considered a nonresident. Itis possible for an individual toqualify as a resident of Oregon forpurposes of voting or obtaining anOregon driver’s license and notmeet the residency requirementsestablished by these rules.

2. An Oregon resident is a financiallyindependent person who, prior tothe term for which Oregon residentclassification is requested, has both:a. established and maintained adomicile in Oregon as providedunder OAR 580-010-0029(1) for12 consecutive months; andb. during that period, has beenprimarily engaged in activities otherthan those of being a collegestudent.

3. A student may be consideredprimarily engaged in educationalactivities regardless of the numberof hours for which the student isenrolled. However, a student who isenrolled for more than 8 hours inany semester or quarter during the12-month period referred to insection (2) of this rule shall bepresumed to be in Oregon forprimarily educational purposes.Such period of enrollment shall notbe counted toward the establish-ment of a bona fide domicile of 12consecutive months in this stateunless the student proves, in fact,establishment of a bona fidedomicile in this state primarily forpurposes other than educational.

4. An Oregon resident is also afinancially dependent person who isclaimed as a dependent by anotherperson who has both:a. established and maintained an

Oregon domicile as providedunder OAR 580-010-0029(1) for12 consecutive months; and

b. during that period, has beenprimarily engaged in activitiesother than those of being acollege student.

5. A financially dependent person whois claimed as a dependent byanother person who has notestablished and maintained anOregon domicile shall be presumedto be a non-resident. This presump-tion may be overcome by evidenceof the student’s long-standingpresence in Oregon and demonstra-tion of other factors under OAR580-010-0031.

6. The criteria for determining Oregonresident classification shall also beused to determine whether a personwho has moved from Oregon hasestablished a non-Oregon residence.

7. If institution records show that theresidence of a student or the personupon whom the student is depen-dent is outside of Oregon, thestudent shall continue to beclassified as a nonresident untilentitlement to resident classificationis shown. The burden of showingthat the residence classificationshould be changed is on the studentrequesting the change.

8. Notwithstanding section (4) of thisrule, a student who is financiallydependent on a non-Oregonresident may nonetheless beconsidered an Oregon resident if thestudent resides in Oregon for atleast 12 consecutive months with aparent or legal guardian who hasboth:a. established and maintained an

Oregon domicile under OAR 580-010-0029(1) for 12 consecutivemonths; and

b. during that period, has beenprimarily engaged in activitiesother than those of being acollege student.

Residency Consideration Factors(580-010-0031)1. The following factors, although not

necessarily conclusive or exclusive,have probative value in support of aclaim for Oregon resident classifica-tion:a. Reside in Oregon for 12 consecu-

tive months prior to the begin-ning of the term for whichresident classification is soughtand during that period beprimarily engaged in activitiesother than those of a collegestudent;

b. Reliance upon Oregon resourcesfor financial support;

c. Domicile in Oregon of personslegally responsible for thestudent;

d. Acceptance of an offer of perma-nent employment in Oregon; and

e. Ownership by the person of his orher living quarters in Oregon.

2. The following factors, standingalone, do not constitute sufficientevidence to effect classification asan Oregon resident:

a. Voting or registration to vote;b. Employment in any position

normally filled by a student;c. The lease of living quarters;d. Admission to a licensed practic-

ing profession in Oregon;

e. Automobile registration;f. Public records, for example, birth

and marriage records, Oregondriver’s license;

g. Continuous presence in Oregonduring periods when not enrolledin school;

h. Ownership of property in Oregonor the payment of Oregon incomeor other Oregon taxes; or

i. Domicile in Oregon of thestudent’s spouse.

3. Reliance upon non-Oregon re-sources for financial support is aninference of residency in anotherstate.

Evidence of Financial Dependency(580-010-0033)1. In determining whether a student is

financially dependent, a studentmust provide:a. Evidence of established domicile

as provided under OAR 580-010-0029(1) of the person claimingthe student as a dependent; and

Oregon State University has established comprehensive aid programs to help you and your family meet the cost of higher

education. Most of our students receivesome form of financial aid to help offsettheir expenses regardless of the familyincome and assets. Aid programs providedthrough the OSU Office of Financial Aidand Scholarships require the completionof the Free Application for Federal StudentAid (FAFSA).

ELIGIBILITYTo be eligible for federal financial aid, astudent must:• Be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-

citizen, a national or permanentresident of the U.S. or be in the U.S.for other than a temporary purpose.

• Be enrolled or accepted for enroll-ment as a regular student workingtoward a degree or certificate in aneligible program, e.g. not specialadmit.

• Have a valid Social Security number.• Maintain satisfactory academic

progress as defined by Oregon StateUniversity

• Comply with the Selective Serviceregistration requirements if required.

• Have a high school diploma or aGeneral Education Development(GED) certificate, pass a test approvedby the U.S. Department of Education,meet other standards the stateestablishes that are approved by theU.S. Department of Education, orcomplete a high school education in ahome school setting that is treated asa home school or private schoolunder state law.

• Sign a statement on the Free Applica-tion for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)certifying that you will use federalstudent aid only for educationalpurposes.

• Sign a statement on the FAFSAcertifying that you are not in defaulton a federal student loan and thatyou do not owe money back on afederal student grant.

• Demonstrate financial need based onthe methodology written into law bythe U.S. Congress. (Except for someloans programs.)

To determine eligibility for specificprograms, students are required tocomplete the Free Application for FederalStudent Aid (FAFSA) each year. Theapplication is sent to the Department ofEducation’s Central Processing Systemthat analyzes the information according toa method prescribed by Congress. Adetailed financial analysis is then for-warded to Oregon State University.

Parent information is required for mostundergraduate students because the U.S.Congress has said that families have theprimary responsibility for funding college.Your dependency status is determined byanswers to a series of questions on theFAFSA Application. Contact the OSUFinancial Aid and Scholarships office ifyou have concerns regarding your familysituation.

If the information you provide indicatesyou are a dependent of your parents, yourability and your parents ability tocontribute to your education is evaluated.Otherwise, only your resources areevaluated, and if married, those of yourspouse.

The major factors considered in theevaluation of your parent’s ability tocontribute are their income, net assets(excluding home and farm), householdsize, and number in college. To evaluatethe amount you are expected to contrib-ute, the analysis considers the amount youearned from work in the previous calendaryear (excluding work-study earnings), aswell as a portion of assets including cash,savings, checking accounts, equity in realestate (excluding farm and home), stocks,bonds, trust funds and other securities. Ifyou have dependent children, yourstudent contribution will reflect anallowance for the additional expenses foryour dependent children.

The amount that is figured from thisneeds analysis is called your ExpectedFamily Contribution (EFC). This figure isthen used in an equation to determineyour financial need: Cost of Educationminus your Expected Family Contribution(EFC) equals need.

Once your aid eligibility has beenestablished, an award package is thenassigned to meet your financial need.

APPLICATION PROCEDURESStudents must apply for financial aid bycompleting the Free Application forFederal Student Aid (FAFSA) or theRenewal Application and list Oregon StateUniversity as one of their first six choices.(Federal School code is 003210.)

If any changes to your SARare necessary, you may make changes ina few ways. You can make corrections onPart 2 of the SAR and return it to theaddress given at the end of Part 2.

ASOSUprovides numerous opportunities forleadership development and profes-sional experience in areas as diverse aspolitical organizing and other forms ofsocial activism.

The structure of ASOSU is veryfamiliar. Governance is shared amongthree branches – the legislative, judicial,

and executive. The legislative portion isdivided into two bodies, the Under-graduate Senate and a Graduate Senate.Student senators are elected by popularvote within their respective collegesduring the student officer elections nearthe end of each academic year. Senateseats are apportioned based upon thepopulation of each college. The judiciaryfunction in ASOSU is carried out by theJudicial Board. The Judicial Board ismade up of five students who are nototherwise involved in ASOSU. The boardoversees any controversies or cases thatinvolve interpretation of the ASOSUConstitution. The executive branch islead by the president and vice-presidentwhom are elected as a ticket by popularvote of the entire student body. Uponelection, this executive duo appointsfive executive officers, two servicedirectors, 10 taskforce directors, as wellas various support staff (For a detaileddescription of each position pleasereference our Web site at http://asosu.oregonstate.edu).

ASOSU is always seeking new volun-teers and future leaders. There are anumber of ways to get involved in abroad range of interests and topics. Oneof the easiest ways to get involved inASOSU is to simply volunteer. Volun-teers work at their own pace and chosetheir level of involvement.

SENIOR THESISThe final requirement for the degree isto prepare a rigorous and integrativesenior thesis that demonstrates afundamental and comprehensiveunderstanding of global issues and ofthe international dimensions of yourprimary degree. This thesis places youracademic discipline in an internationalcontext, often in a comparative fashion.Because it fulfills the Writing IntensiveCourse requirement for the Interna-tional Degree, it will involve multipledrafts and revisions. The final productwill represent polished, formal writing,in a format appropriate to your aca-demic field.

Dual thesis requirements: You maywrite one thesis to meet the Interna-tional Degree requirement and the thesisrequirement in your department. If youwill complete a senior thesis to meetanother academic requirement in your

primary degree, it is important toconsult with academic advisers in yourmajor as well as in the InternationalDegree office.

• Example: If you are in the UniversityHonors College, you will work with boththe Honors College and the Interna-tional Degree office to ensure that youfulfill both sets of requirements.

Thesis proposal: A copy of the thesisproposal form will be on file in theInternational Degree Program office. Thetopic will evolve as you work, and maychange substantially, but identifying anappropriate adviser and developing aproposal form are crucial steps in yourprogress toward completion of the thesisrequirement of the International Degree.If your thesis ideas change significantly,it is important to file a revised proposalwith the ID Program office.

Thesis credit: Before graduating, youwill spend two to three terms workingon the thesis and will receive creditsthrough your major department. Youwill register for a minimum of 3 thesiscredits under the department prefixappropriate to your major (403), withyour thesis adviser as the professor ofrecord. These credits may be distributedover multiple terms, and you mayreceive an incomplete for the creditstaken during the earlier term(s) untilyou have finished your thesis work. Youwill register for these credits during theyear you plan to complete your thesiswork, as incomplete grades should beremoved within 12 months. Please notethat credits for which you receive anincomplete do not count toward creditssatisfactorily completed during thatterm. If you receive financial aid, youshould plan ahead to ensure that thisdoes not affect your aid eligibility.

• Example: If you are a sociologymajor, you would register for a mini-mum of 3 credits of SOC 403. If you area mathematics major, you would registerfor MTH 403. Some departments alreadyhave a thesis course listed in the Scheduleof Classes, but other departments mayask the registration schedule desk to setup a CRN for that course number duringthe term(s) for which you wish toregister for thesis credit.

These credits may be graded or pass/no pass. If you and your adviser agreethat the scope of your thesis warrantsadditional credit, and your college anddepartment’s policies allow it, you mayregister for additional credits. Thesuggested maximum is 6 credits.

Colleges, departments, or advisers mayelect to set different requirements forthesis credits that meet the needs of theirprograms. In this case, the requirements orpreferences of the college/department takeprecedence over general InternationalDegree requirements.



Requirements for the senior thesisinclude:Thesis class: As a part of your program,you will enroll in the 1-credit classINTL 407, Seminar: International Issues:Introduction to Thesis, offered on apass/no pass grading basis. The course isoffered twice a year during fall andwinter terms. It is designed to help youdefine and focus your areas of interest,get an overview of research methods,develop your thesis ideas, identify asuitable adviser in your major depart-ment who will assist you throughout theprocess, complete a thesis proposal form,and develop a realistic and effectivetimetable for completion. During thiscourse, you will receive a copy of theguide, Preparing a Senior Thesis, and anAdviser Information Sheet, which willhelp you and your adviser as you workon your thesis. Note: if you are also astudent in the University HonorsCollege, you may enroll in either theUHC thesis class or the ID Program’sthesis class.

Thesis log: The log is a notebook orjournal that chronologically recordsprogress, frustrations, setbacks, plans,and attempts. It is valuable to beginkeeping a log to record ideas thatinterest you as soon as possible, even ifyou do not yet have specific thesis ideas.As your ideas become more focused, thelog will reflect this. Typical entries mightinclude notes, questions, “what-if”discussions, sketches, crude charts, mini-evaluations, plans for the next day orweek, and tentative or partial calcula-tions, especially in mathematical orscientific projects. When you receivefeedback from your thesis adviser, recordthe information in your log, label it as

“feedback,” and describe in briefparagraphs how you assimilated theevaluation into your project.

The log is another component inmeeting the WIC requirement for theInternational Degree, and should be aminimum of 8–10 typewritten pages (orthe equivalent).

Final thesis: This represents polished,formal writing. Theses average 30–50pages, but to ensure fulfillment of theWIC requirement, even a thesis with anonverbal component such as art,music, or photography must include aminimum of 8–10 pages of formalwriting and place the thesis in theappropriate historical/cultural contextby incorporating and documentingoutside sources.

• Example: A graphic arts studentwho interned in Russia comparedcontemporary posters in the U.S.and Russia, and displayed examples.He also wrote an analysis of hisfindings.

Presentation: When your thesis iscomplete, you will make a publicpresentation of your work. The formatmay vary depending on your topic andyour own preferences, but you willpresent your thesis to a group includingyour adviser, other interested faculty inyour department, representatives of theInternational Degree program, and otherguests whom you may want to invite.

Final copies of the log and thesis mustbe turned in to your major departmentand the International Degree Office twoweeks prior to the date that grades aredue for graduating seniors for the termyou plan to graduate. This is usually aweek before finals week.

ADDITIONAL COLLEGE ANDDEPARTMENT REQUIREMENTSBusinessThe college has set the followingadditional requirements for earning anInternational Degree in Business.Students must complete the Interna-tional Business option.Health and Human SciencesAs part of the four additional Baccalaure-ate Core courses required for the Degree,you must take HDFS 447 Families andPoverty (Contemporary Global Issuescategory).Foreign Languages and LiteraturesTo earn the International Degree youmust complete the second foreignlanguage required of a language majorthrough the fourth-year level.

For example, if you are aGerman major and have decided to takeRussian as your second foreign language,you must complete the 400-level Russiancourse and study abroad in bothGermany and Russia.

Additionally, you may not completemajor/minor requirements withouttaking upper-division courses in the OSUForeign Languages Department even ifyou complete the hour requirementsabroad.

SCHOLARSHIPSIn support of the overseas learningexperience, the International DegreeProgram has limited funds available toassist students traveling abroad and toassist with costs associated with researchfor your thesis. These are awarded on acompetitive basis. Please talk to theInternational Degree office for moreinformation.

Interdisciplinary Studies 107

In an increasinglycomplex world,solutions to issuesof emerging societalimportance oftenrequire crossingtraditionalboundaries.Recognizing thatstudents will needinformation frommany availablesources, OregonState Universityoffers a variety ofundergraduate andgraduate opportuni-ties for interdisci-plinary explorationand enrichment.

Interdisciplinary programs depend fundamentally upon the existence of strong disciplinary programs and place significant responsibility upon

students to integrate and synthesizeinformation.

Because there are so many choices ofsubjects and so many ways to approach agiven interest, it is crucial that studentsobtain guidance in order to understandthe advantages and the limitations ofparticular disciplinary and interdiscipli-nary alternatives. Students are encour-aged to contact the individuals identifiedat the beginning of each certificate,department, and degree listing for moreinformation and advice.

UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMSAlthough OSU has offered interdiscipli-nary programs for many years, new andinnovative interdisciplinary baccalaureatedegree programs are continually beingapproved.

At the undergraduate level, studentshave a variety of opportunities to pursueinterdisciplinary interests:• Combine a major with one or more

minors or options in other disci-plines. Undergraduate minors andoptions are listed throughout thecatalog; and a table of majors,minors, and options is located in thefront section of this catalog. Consultthe appropriate departmental catalogsection for requirements.

• Complete a certificate program.These programs may be completed inconjunction with any baccalaureatedegree program. Certificates inApplied Ethics, Latin AmericanAffairs, Peace Studies, RussianStudies, Twentieth Century Studies,and Women Studies are availablethrough the College of Liberal Arts.The College of Health and HumanSciences offers a certificate inGerontology. The College of Businessoffers a post-baccalaureate Certificatein Accounting. Consult the appropri-ate college section of this catalog forfurther information on particularcertificate programs.

• Three multimedia minors (Multime-dia, Telemedia, and Print Media)incorporate work from computerscience, art, English, and speechcommunication to prepare studentsfor the fast-paced world of electroniccommunication.The boundaries between traditionalmedia and new media are oftenblurred and many media profession-als must be able to work with severalmedia and reformat informationoriginally gathered for one mediumto suit a second or third medium.These minors provide students theneeded tools for media communica-tions in the 21st century.

• Earn a baccalaureate degree. Baccalau-reate degrees in American Studies andLiberal Studies are offered throughthe College of Liberal Arts and abaccalaureate degree in GeneralScience in the College of Science.These programs allow studentsconsiderable flexibility in tailoringcourse work to particular interdisci-plinary interests in the liberal artsand the sciences.

• The Bioresource Research degreeprovides students with broadacademic training, focused coursework in a specific bioresource option,and a research/mentorship opportu-nity unmatched in any other OSUundergraduate degree program.

• The Earth Information Science andTechnology undergraduate minor andundergraduate option provide strongbackground in geosciences, forestry,environmental science, naturalresources, bioscience engineering,and civil engineering.

• The Environmental Sciences majorcombines strong interdisciplinarypreparation in the physical, biologi-cal, and social sciences with a core ofenvironmental courses and a special-ization in one science disciplinerelevant to the environment.

• The Natural Resources baccalaureatedegree, drawing upon a broadcurriculum based in the Colleges ofAgricultural Sciences, Forestry, LiberalArts, and Science, provides under-standing of the social and scientificdimensions of a broad range ofnatural resource managementchallenges.

• The International Studies degree,earned concurrently with any otherbaccalaureate degree, allows stu-dents—through experience abroad,advanced course work in languageand culture, and an individualizedproject—to bring an internationaldimension to any major.

BIOSYSTEMS MODELINGOPTION (29)Biosystems modeling involves theapplication of general systems theory tothe analysis of agricultural and environ-mental systems. Systems theory providesa method of analyzing overall systembehavior by examining relationsamong—and the behavior of—indi-vidual components, and synthesizingthese relationships into a mathematicalframework that can describe the totalsystem. Computer simulation using thismathematical framework can predictand analyze the response to variouschanges in the inputs to, and/orstructure of, the system. Systemsmodeling is a powerful tool in thedevelopment of comprehensive solu-tions to problems. Examples are theresponses of salmon in natural andhatchery environments to such factorsas water flow, oxygen levels, andtemperature; interactions between crops,such as sweet corn, filberts, and apples,with pests, such as corn earworm, filbertmoth, and codling moth, with respect touse of pesticides and crop yields.

ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMISTRYOPTIONEnvironmental chemistry focuses on thebasic principles that control the fate ofchemicals in the environment. Abewildering variety of chemicals, aninevitable result of modern industrialcivilization, are released daily; some ofthem persist in soil, water, or air. Theextent to which these chemicals are ahealth hazard depends in part on where,how much, and in what form theyaccumulate. OSU scientists use state-of-the-art methods to detect trace amountsof chemicals in the environment, atlevels as low as one part per trillion, andtrack their movement and transforma-tions. Students will acquire laboratoryskills that will be in high demand asworldwide public concern with environ-mental quality increases.Substituted CoursesPH 211, 212, 213. *General Physics with

Abewildering variety of chemicals, aninevitable result of modern industrialcivilization, are released daily; some ofthem persist in soil, water, or air. Theextent to which these chemicals are ahealth hazard depends in part on where,how much, and in what form they

accumulate. OSU scientists use state-of-the-art methods to detect trace amountsof chemicals in the environment, atlevels as low as one part per trillion, andtrack their movement and transforma-tions. Students will acquire laboratoryskills that will be in high demand asworldwide public concern with environ-mental quality increases.Substituted CoursesPH 211, 212, 213. *General Physics with

NORTH AMERICANENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCESMINORParticipation in the North AmericanEnvironmental Sciences minor offersstudents an exciting opportunity toexpand their global perspective and toexperience Mexico, its people, culture,language, and natural beauty. Throughan array of classes and cultural discovery,students gain knowledge and skills thatcannot be gained easily at their homeinstitution and that makes studentsmore competitive in the job market inany profession. Today, there is a growingdemand for people who have a clearunderstanding of the rational use of ourglobal resources. This minor transcendscultural boundaries by offering studentsa unique opportunity to develop aninternational perspective on environ-mental problems and the managementof environmental systems throughcourse work at OSU and participation inan exchange program with MonterreyInstitute of Technology—CampusGuaymas, Mexico. Guaymas is acharming fishing town rich in Mexicanculture, located along the beautifulshores of Bacochibampo Bay in the Seaof Cortez. Dormant volcanoes line thesurrounding countryside, ideal forhiking, mountain hiking, and exploring.Extracurricular activities offered throughCampus Guaymas include scuba diving,sea kayaking, windsurfing, swimmingcompetition, boat racing, and snorkelingtrips.

The minor is designed to providestudents in the natural sciences whohave an interest in internationalenvironmental or marine sciences with afield-based study abroad experience. Inaddition, students of all majors with aninterest in international business orresource use and with a solid back-ground in basic biology may find thisminor of interest. Students receivehands-on training that integratesstudent work with faculty experienceand focuses on group problem solving.Innovative curricula, including collabo-ration on applied research and smallclass sizes ensures close contact withprofessors. Students attend CampusGuaymas for one semester to takecourses in marine resource management,ecology and sustainable development,and Latin American culture. They willfinish with advanced course work on theOSU campus. Because this is a semester-based program, students earn from 16 to20 quarter credits for their study inMexico, and the term abroad may beeither in the fall or spring terms.Students can choose to stay in air-conditioned campus dorms or homestays. Most forms of financial aid can beapplied to this program.

Sample classes in Guaymas include:Ecology and Sustainable DevelopmentCoastal Zone ManagementMarine Biology and Sea ResourcesOyster, Mussel, and Other Mollusks

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE(MA, MS, PhD)

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationBiogeochemistry, ecology,environmental education, quantitativeanalysis, social science, water resources

The Environmental Sciences GraduateProgram provides curricula leading toMA, MS and PhD degrees in environ-mental sciences. The curricula integratesthinking across disciplines, especiallylife, physical, and social sciences.Environmental sciences explore naturalprocesses on earth and their alterationby human activity. OSU has exceptionalstrength in many of the disciplines,including science, agriculture, forestry,engineering, public health, liberal arts,social science, and oceanography andatmospheric science. Strength in thesedisciplines allows the ES GraduateProgram to provide high-qualityinterdisciplinary education for environ-mental scientists and continuingpostgraduate educational opportunitiesto scientists who are already active inthe field. The degrees administered bythe program are OSU’s contribution tothe Joint-Campus Graduate Program forEnvironmental Sciences, Studies, andPolicy, which links environmentalgraduate programs among the majorresearch universities in Oregon.

The ES Graduate Program developsscientists who will be able to analyzeand understand environmental systems,predict environmental change, andparticipate in the management of theenvironment. Each student completing amajor in the ES Graduate Program willperform research and complete a thesis,dissertation, or research project. Eachstudent will complete a core of ESgraduate courses that will integrateconcepts across the physical sciences, lifesciences, and social sciences. Eachstudent will also develop depth in acarefully designed, interdisciplinary areaof concentration or track. Tracks that arecurrently available include ecology,biogeochemistry, social science, quanti-tative analysis, water resources, andenvironmental education. Methods andnumerical skill courses, electives, andthesis make up the remainder of astudent’s program.

Students in the ES Graduate Programmay choose advisers from facultymembers already appointed at OSU, as


well as other scientists who apply and areaccepted in the Environmental SciencesGraduate Faculty. The EnvironmentalSciences Graduate Program fostersinterdisciplinary education, and seeksconnections between institutions.

The Natural Resources degree programprovides a broad-based approach to thestudy of natural resources. The curricu-lum is designed to produce graduateswho can understand a broad range ofnatural resource issues, work withexperts in a variety of resource fields,and deal with social and politicalcomponents of resource management.This program is jointly administered bythe Colleges of Agricultural Sciences,Forestry, Liberal Arts, and Science, withstudents choosing a “home college” forthe duration of the degree.

In addition to the baccalaureate core,the three main areas for course workinclude: the natural resources core(46 credits), breadth requirements(21 credits), and the specialty option(50 credits). Within these areas, studentshave a number of courses to choosefrom to fulfill requirements. Studentsacquire knowledge and background inphysical and biological systems, mathand statistics, natural resource policy,economics, and decision making.Breadth is acquired in seven key areas ofresource management. Finally, studentsdevelop depth in the specialty option,choosing from a number of pre-approved options, or creating anindividualized specialty option.

Only two courses used to completethe natural resources major require-ments may be taken S/U. Grades of “C”or better are required in upper-divisionnatural resources core courses, plus allbreadth requirements. The student’shome college may also have additionalgrade or course work requirements; seeadviser for information.

The Natural Resources major is alsoavailable at the Cascades Campus inBend and through the OSU ExtendedCampus (formerly Distance andEducation) program.

MultimediaTelemediaPrint Media

The Information Age is bringingsignificant change in the media ofcommunication and affecting all facetsof our lives.

Digital technologies have transformedthe print and broadcast media. Newmedia are simultaneously competing

with and extending traditional media.Community newspapers and nationalmagazines have added frequentlyambitious Web sites in order to capturean emerging market as it grows. CD-ROMs have become a staple of publish-ing. Books often contain CD-ROMs. CD-ROMs often replace books. The bound-aries between traditional media and newmedia are often blurred and many mediaprofessionals must be able to work withseveral media and reformat informationoriginally gathered for one medium tosuit a second or third medium. Theseminors provide students with theneeded tools for media communicationin the 21st century.

In addition, because the programconsists of a series of minors, it allowsstudents to mix work in media commu-nication with more extensive work intheir major. Students are thus able tomerge a familiarity with communicationtools with expertise in a content field.The minors themselves are constructedin such a way that they recognize theoverlap in a variety of different mediaand a single core program provides anefficient way to cover the overlappingmaterial.

All students take a 19-credit to20-credit media communication coreand select one of three minors describedbelow:

The Environmental Sciences GraduateProgram provides curricula leading toMA, MS and PhD degrees in environ-

mental sciences. The curricula integratesthinking across disciplines, especiallylife, physical, and social sciences.Environmental sciences explore naturalprocesses on earth and their alterationby human activity. OSU has exceptionalstrength in many of the disciplines,including science, agriculture, forestry,engineering, public health, liberal arts,social science, and oceanography andatmospheric science. Strength in thesedisciplines allows the ES GraduateProgram to provide high-qualityinterdisciplinary education for environ-mental scientists and continuingpostgraduate educational opportunitiesto scientists who are already active inthe field. The degrees administered bythe program are OSU’s contribution tothe Joint-Campus Graduate Program forEnvironmental Sciences, Studies, andPolicy, which links environmentalgraduate programs among the majorresearch universities in Oregon.

The ES Graduate Program developsscientists who will be able to analyzeand understand environmental systems,predict environmental change, andparticipate in the management of theenvironment. Each student completing amajor in the ES Graduate Program willperform research and complete a thesis,dissertation, or research project. Eachstudent will complete a core of ESgraduate courses that will integrateconcepts across the physical sciences, lifesciences, and social sciences. Eachstudent will also develop depth in acarefully designed, interdisciplinary areaof concentration or track. Tracks that arecurrently available include ecology,biogeochemistry, social science, quanti-tative analysis, water resources, andenvironmental education. Methods andnumerical skill courses, electives, andthesis make up the remainder of astudent’s program.

Students in the ES Graduate Programmay choose advisers from facultymembers already appointed at OSU, aswell as other scientists who apply andare accepted in the EnvironmentalSciences Graduate Faculty. The Environ-mental Sciences Graduate Programfosters interdisciplinary education, andseeks connections between institutions.

ACADEMIC ADVISINGThe College of Liberal Arts and OregonState University want every student tosucceed. This requires that studentsunderstand and meet the academicrequirements set by the college anduniversity. They are encouraged to takecharge of their academic career and meetwith an adviser. That individual willassist students in course selection, listento academic concerns, explain programoptions, discuss internships and studyabroad programs, and outline academicprogress. Wise students will consult withtheir departmental adviser every term.Advisers are valuable resources.

COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTSREQUIREMENTSA liberal arts education involvesexploration and broad study beyondone’s major field. Students are encour-aged to understand other cultures, otherways of knowing, and other fields ofstudy. Students are encouraged to takemore courses in areas outside theirmajor field to enhance their experience

Liberal arts students are required tosatisfy four sets of requirements:• University Baccalaureate core• College of Liberal Arts core• BA or BS requirements• Major program requirementsThe university baccalaureate core courserequirements are explained in a separatesection, “Earning a Degree at OregonState.” The College of Liberal Arts coreand the BA and BS requirements areexplained below. The major programrequirements are explained in theappropriate section in the pages thatfollow. If you want to add a minorprogram, you will also need to completethe requirements for that minor. Specificrequirements for interdisciplinaryminors are listed in the InterdisciplinaryStudies section of this General Catalog.Specific requirements for disciplinary

minors are usually given in the appropri-ate departmental section; for examplesee the Economics section for require-ments for a minor in economics.

You may not use a single course tosatisfy more than one of these require-ments. In addition, you may not usecourses within your major field to satisfyeither baccalaureate core or liberal artscore requirements. (However, coursestaken to satisfy the baccalaureate corerequirements or the liberal arts core mayalso be used to satisfy requirements for aminor.)

LIBERAL ARTS COREThe liberal arts core consists of fivecourses (at least 15 credits) as follows:• Humanities (3): Critical examination

of influential traditions and ideas asdefined by major scholarly works(includes English literature; ethnicstudies; film studies; foreign lan-guage and literatures, includingculture; history; and philosophy).

• Nonwestern Culture (3): Study inany of the following areas focusingoutside of western culture–Africa,Asia, Russia, South America, CentralAmerica, Caribbean, Middle East, thePacific, or Native North Americans.

• One additional course from one ofthe preceding four areas (3).

For a list of specific courses that satisfythe liberal arts core requirements contactthe Liberal Arts Student Services Office,(541) 737-0561, or visit the College ofLiberal Arts Web site: http://oregonstate.edu/dept/cla.

BA/BS REQUIREMENTNearly all liberal arts students graduatewith either a Bachelor of Arts orBachelor of Science degree.• BA Requirement: Second-year

proficiency in a foreign language atthe college level with at least a C–.

• BS Requirement: A minimum 15-credit block of science, computerscience, and quantitative studies asfollows:

1. Any computer science (CS) courseapproved by the student’s majordepartment (3–4), and

2. Any course from the College ofScience approved by the student’s

major department except math(MTH) or statistics (ST) courses (3–4),and

3. One of the following (8–12):• Any 8 credits of departmentally

approved ST courses, 4 credits ofwhich must be at the 300 level orabove (8).

• MTH 111 and MTH 245 (4,4).• Any 8 credits of MTH courses at

the 200 level or above (notincluding MTH 211, 212, 391, or392).

• MTH 211 and MTH 212 (4,4). Pre-elementary education majors only.

The Department of Anthropology offerscourses to meet the needs of studentsinterested in a comprehensive under-standing of human societies and culturespast and present. Prehistoric, historic,ethnographic, and linguistic studyprovides the basis for understandinghow a variety of societies solve commonproblems. The anthropology curriculumprovides a cross-cultural perspective, asound basis for later professional orgraduate education.

An anthropology degree enablesstudents to pursue a broad range of jobsrequiring a liberal arts background; forexample, education, human andgovernmental services, law, business,media, and medicine. It prepares themespecially well for work situations thatemphasize cross-cultural awareness,international contacts and managementof cultural resources.

Anthropology bridges sciences and thehumanities and develops criticalthinking, communication skills, facilitywith group processes, and the ability towork independently. It can help studentssucceed in an increasingly intercon-nected and complex world. The depart-ment also participates in the MAISdegree program.

ANTHROPOLOGY(BA, BS, HBA, HBS)Major RequirementsMajors develop a broad anthropologicalbackground. The program features threeoptions: archaeology/physical anthro-pology, cultural/linguistic anthropology,and general anthropology.

A departmental adviser works withstudents to determine the option andcourses needed to meet the interest ofthe student and complete the program.The curriculum accommodates upperdivision and transfer students. Require-ments take two years to complete.

A grade of “C–” or better is requiredfor all courses used to complete majorrequirements. Such courses cannot betaken S/U. Major requirements are listedbelow.

The Department of Speech Communica-tion offers major programs leading to aBA or BS degree providing both theoreti-cal and practical aspects of human oralcommunication as a liberal art, as asocial science, as background for furtherstudy, or as pre-professional experience.The department also participates in theMaster of Arts in InterdisciplinaryStudies (MAIS) degree program; see theGraduate School.

SPEECH COMMUNICATION(BA, BS, HBA, HBS)Currently, students who major in SpeechCommunication must choose between aCommunication option and a TheatreArts option. Both options function asstand-alone majors.

The Communication option consistsof 48 credits of course work. Studentswho choose the Communication optionwill be required to satisfactorily com-plete an undergraduate prerequisite corebefore applying (through the Depart-ment of Speech Communication) to themajor. Students who are working oncompleting the prerequisite core areplaced in pre-communication.

The Theatre Arts option consists of 51credits of course work. Students intheatre arts do not need to complete theundergraduate prerequisite core requiredin the Communication option.

(MA, MS, PhD)

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationBiochemistryBiophysics

Graduate MinorBiochemistry and Biophysics

The major in biochemistry and biophys-ics provides a foundation in both thephysical and biological sciences. It isdesigned to help a student prepare for acareer in the health sciences, fortechnical employment at the BS level, orfor graduate study in the life sciences.Graduates of the department’s programshave found challenging careers inmedicine, dentistry, clinical chemistry,biotechnology, genetics, cell biology,forensic science, pharmacology, physiology,toxicology, and nutrition, as well as inbiochemistry or biophysics. Others have usedthe degree as a springboard to nontechnicalcareers that benefit from a broad scientificbackground, including business, intellectualproperty law, journalism, and health careadministration.

UNDERGRADUATE STUDIESHigh school students interested incareers in biochemistry or biophysics

should prepare for college by taking fouryears of mathematics and at least oneyear each of physics and chemistry.Additional course work in biology,computer science, written and spokenEnglish, and foreign languages is highlydesirable. Students transferring from acommunity college should havecompleted one year each of the follow-ing by the end of the sophomore year, ifthey plan to graduate in four years’ totaltime: general chemistry, organicchemistry, calculus-based physics, andgeneral biology. Three semesters or fourquarters of college-level math shouldhave been taken, starting with calculus.

Biochemists and biophysicists findemployment in colleges and universities,in medical schools, in government andprivate research institutes, in hospitals,and in industry. Industrial employersinclude chemical companies, food-processing plants, drug manufacturers,the cosmetic industry, and manufactur-ers of agricultural chemicals (fertilizers,pesticides, etc.). Biochemistry isextensively intertwined with biotechnol-ogy, which is the use of moderntechniques in biology to achievepractical objectives. This has greatlyexpanded the industrial market forbiochemists and biophysicists. The mostrewarding careers require completion ofa doctoral degree—PhD or a professionaldegree. This is essential for anyone whowants to direct an independent researchprogram.

Three or four members of the facultyserve as undergraduate advisers; thesefaculty members are most familiar withundergraduate program requirementsand career opportunities. The presentadvisers are Drs. Ahern, Hsu, andPearson. Also, the student is encouragedto seek out any other member of thefaculty for informal advice.

The department has one set ofcurricular requirements (see below),which lead to the BS degree with a majorin biochemistry and biophysics. Allupper division students are encouragedto take additional elective courses inareas related to their major fields ofinterest (e.g., chemistry, microbiology,genetics, nutrition, physics, pharmacy,biology, or computer science). Upper-division students are strongly encour-aged to carry out a research project inthe laboratory of a faculty member.

GRADUATE STUDIESThe Department of Biochemistry andBiophysics offers graduate work leadingto the MA, MS and Doctor of Philosophydegrees. Most graduate students areadmitted for study leading to the Doctorof Philosophy degree, although theMaster of Science can be awarded. ThePhD program includes course work in

both biochemistry and biophysics,passing written and oral examinations,participation in the departmentalseminar program and research leading toa doctoral thesis. Although moststudents in the department receivefinancial support in the form of teachingor research assistantships, all studentsare expected to participate, to a limitedamount, in the teaching program of thedepartment, regardless of the source ofsupport. In general, financial support isprovided for PhD candidates only.

UNDERGRADUATE STUDIESBotany and plant pathology areconcerned with the study of plants at alllevels of biological organization, from


molecular and cellular processes to theglobal ecosystem. This breadth of fieldreflects the wide range of issues andproblems that confront plant biologists.In addition to addressing fundamentalquestions in plant biology, plantscientists in the 21st century will becalled upon to provide informationuseful for producing food, fiber, andmedicine for an increasing population,and for increasing our understanding ofthe diversity of plant and ecologicalsystems and their interactions withhumans. Students studying botany andplant pathology at OSU receive the basicscience background necessary for suchcontributions, and may choose to focusin a particular area within plant science.

The undergraduate program in theDepartment of Botany and PlantPathology is designed for students whowish to receive a BS in Botany degreeand for students pursuing degrees inother fields that require a knowledge ofplant biology. For example, studentswho have an undergraduate major inbiology or environmental science maywish to emphasize botany courses intheir upper division course work.

Completion of the undergraduatecurriculum in botany can qualifystudents for graduate work in variousareas of plant biology and plantpathology, and for positions in state andfederal agencies and industries con-cerned with plants and their products.

Prospective botany majors shouldobtain a strong background in thebiological and physical sciences at thehigh school level. Specifically recom-mended are a minimum of three years ofhigh school mathematics, includingalgebra, geometry, and some exposure totrigonometry; one year of chemistry;one year of biology; one year of physics;and courses designed to developcomputer and writing skills. Studentswithout an adequate background inmathematics and science may make upthese deficiencies early in their collegecareers.

GRADUATE STUDIESThe Department of Botany and PlantPathology offers graduate programs inthe following areas of concentration:ecology, genetics, molecular and cellularbiology, mycology, plant pathology,plant physiology, structural botany,systematics, and applied systematics.• Ecology includes physiological,

population, community, ecosystemand global studies in ecology.

• Genetics includes molecular,classical and population studies ofthe genetics of plants, fungi, andplant-associated microorganisms.

• Molecular and cellular biologyincludes studies of molecular and

cellular mechanisms active duringplant development, molecularaspects of plant-pathogen interac-tions, and various aspects of generegulation, signal transduction, andthe cytoskeleton.

• Mycology includes the systematics,ecology, and population genetics oflichenized and nonlichenized fungi.

• Plant pathology includes studies inthe areas of bacteriology, nematol-ogy, virology, forest pathology,epidemiology of plant diseases, thephysiology of parasitism, and themolecular and biochemical basis ofplant host-pathogen interactions.

• Plant physiology includes investiga-tions of the regulation of plantgrowth and development, themolecular and physiological basis ofplant-microbe interactions, nitrogenmetabolism and the nitrogen cycle,and problems in environmental andstress physiology in plant systems.

• Structural botany includes studiesof the cytology, anatomy, andmorphology of various plant groups,and the cytological and histologicaltechniques used in these investiga-tions, including light and electronmicroscopy.

• Systematics includes investigationsof the taxonomy, phylogeny, andbiogeography of plants, fungi, andlichens.

• Applied systematics includesinternship-based programs of studyproviding technical skills in plantclassification, identification, andecological properties of plant species.

Students with majors in any one areamay incorporate into their programsminors in other areas within thedepartment or in other departments andcolleges. Integrated minors, andinterdisciplinary programs in plantphysiology, molecular and cellularbiology, genetics, and environmentalscience are also available.

The PhD and MS degrees offered bythe Department of Botany and PlantPathology require, in addition to coursework, research resulting in presentationand defense of a thesis. A non-thesis MSdegree also is available. PhD candidatesmust pass a written and oral preliminaryexamination upon completion of theircourse work. In addition, PhD studentsare required to be a teaching assistant fortwo quarters. The MA degree requiresthe knowledge of one foreign language.

Inquiries concerning graduate studiescan be forwarded to the chairperson ofthe Department of Botany and PlantPathology.

Applied systematics includesinternship-based programs of studyproviding technical skills in plantclassification, identification, andecological properties of plant species.

Students majoring in any one area ofconcentration may incorporate intotheir programs minors in other areaswithin the department or minors inother departments and colleges.Integrated minors, and interdisciplinaryprograms in plant physiology, molecularand cellular biology, genetics, andenvironmental science are also available.

The PhD and MS degrees offered bythe Department of Botany and PlantPathology require, in addition to coursework, research resulting in the presenta-tion and defense of a thesis. A nonthesisMS degree also is available for studentswith particular career goals, including aninternship-based MS program in the areaof applied systematics. PhD candidatesmust pass a written and oral preliminaryexamination upon completion of theircourse work. In addition, PhD studentsare required to be a teaching assistant fortwo quarters. The MA degree requiresthe knowledge of one foreign language.

Inquiries concerning graduate studiesmay be forwarded to the chairperson ofthe Department of Botany and PlantPathology.

PROFESSIONAL MASTER’SDEGREE PROGRAM IN APPLIEDSYSTEMATICSThe graduate program of the Depart-ment of Botany and Plant Pathologyincludes a professional MS programleading to an MS in Botany and PlantPathology with an area of concentrationin Applied Systematics. (Professional MSprograms are non-thesis MS programsthat have a defined curriculum andrequire an internship experience.)

Systematics is the science devoted tothe discovery, description, and classifica-tion of the earth’s biological diversity.The need for an accurate and compre-hensive knowledge of biologicaldiversity is now recognized by a broadarray of interests in the public andprivate sectors. Plants and fungi are thefocus of current initiatives in theconservation of endangered species, therestoration of native ecosystems, and thecontrol of invasive weeds. In these andother endeavors, the accurate identifica-tion of plants and fungi plays a pivotalrole. Oregon State University’s Profes-sional Master’s Degree Program inApplied Systematics was designed toprovide students with the tools andexperience needed to become proficientin this area.Required Core CoursesBOT 516.

The Department of Chemistry offers BS,BA, MS, MA, MAIS, and PhD degrees inchemistry. The facilities, faculty, andcurricular offerings in this departmentare approved by the American ChemicalSociety.

Chemistry provides a gateway tomany professions. An undergraduate

chemistry degree may serve as prepara-tion for professional work in chemistryand related sciences; as a foundation topursue applied fields including pharma-ceutical chemistry, forensics, biotechnol-ogy, medicine, chemical processing,electronics, agricultural and foodscience, oceanography, marketing ofscientific equipment or supplies,environmental science, and atmosphericscience. It may also serve as a core forpre-professional students pursuinggraduate work in pure or appliedchemistry, and for those seekingpositions as research chemists andtechnical experts in commerciallaboratories and chemical industries,positions in local, state, and federalgovernment facilities, and for postgradu-ate work leading to teaching positions inuniversities, colleges, communitycolleges, and high schools.

There are several degree programsavailable to undergraduate chemistrymajors. All curricula involve general,organic, analytical, physical, andinorganic chemistry course work, plustwo to three years of laboratory work inchemistry.

All chemistry majors take part or all ofExperimental Chemistry, a six-termlaboratory course sequence consisting of22 project-style experiments. Thisprogram replaces the traditional separatedivisional laboratory courses in chemis-try taught at many universities. Studentsin this Integrated Laboratory Programwork on two to five projects per term,each of which includes components ofsynthesis, analysis, theory and reportwriting spanning all areas of modernchemistry. One goal of the program is toprovide students intensive hands-onexperience in modern chemical instru-mentation and computers as a founda-tion for both graduate studies andemployment in science after graduation.

Most chemistry majors take advantageof the opportunity to become involvedin research projects in the department.Working with a research group is anexciting way to apply ideas and skillsacquired in formal course work. Studentswork closely with a faculty member andresearch group to set up their projects.Undergraduates also have the opportu-nity to present their research as a posterat the annual departmental postersession entitled “Chemistry in Action.”Scheduling research time is flexible butthree hours of work per week arerequired per credit. Areas of researchavailable are highly varied and includesynthesis of new compounds andmaterials, development and applicationsof chemical instrumentation, laserspectroscopy, surface science, reactionmechanisms, design and synthesis ofpolymers and optical materials, environ-mental chemistry, bioanalytical meth-

ods, and nuclear chemistry. Researchexperience is helpful when consideringgraduate work in chemistry and providesvaluable experience for entering the jobmarket. Students may also obtainvaluable experience and credits forinternships.

GRADUATE STUDIESThe Department of Chemistry offersgraduate work leading toward Master ofArts, Master of Science, and Doctor ofPhilosophy degrees in analyticalchemistry, inorganic chemistry, nuclearand radiation chemistry, organicchemistry, physical chemistry, and solidstate chemistry. The major emphasis ofthe PhD program is on research. A non-thesis master’s degree is available. Mostgraduate students working on a thesis inchemistry are supported either asgraduate teaching assistants or asgraduate research assistants.

CHEMISTRY BS DEGREEThe Chemistry BS degree features twotracks, each with a chemistry core and aselection of accompanying options.

• Track One is probably best suitedfor students intending to pursue agraduate degree in chemistry or a closelyrelated area. It provides the mostrigorous and complete chemistrybackground and the most extensivelaboratory experience. The curriculum iscertified by the American ChemicalSociety (ACS) and has two options:advanced biochemistry and advancedchemistry. Both options include 6–12credits of career-supportive electives in(CSE) advanced chemistry or relateddisciplines. These CSE courses areapproved by the adviser and areintended to strengthen the student’sbackground in areas related to careergoals. Students choosing the advancedchemistry option must take at least 3credits in advanced laboratory courses orresearch. Track-One graduates areeligible for ACS certification by thedepartment chair and can become fullmembers of the ACS without therequirement of work experience.

• Track Two is best suited forchemistry majors who want to gainextensive experience in a secondary areaand target a particular career direction.Track Two options include: biochemis-try, business, chemistry education,chemical engineering, environmentalchemistry, forensic science, materialsscience, and pre-medicine. The multidis-ciplinary approach of Track Twoenhances preparation and opportunitiesfor employment in electronics, poly-mers, or biotechnology (the biochemis-try, chemical engineering, or materialsscience options), for careers in environ-mental science (environmental chemis-try option), work in crime labs (forensic


science option), or teaching in highschools (chemistry education option).The Track Two curriculum is notcertified by the American ChemicalSociety. It consists of a core of chemistrycourses (79–81 credits) and a combina-tion of 8 to 11 courses (30–36 credits)that defines each option.

CHEMISTRY BA DEGREEThe BA degree is appropriate forchemistry students interested inobtaining a broader academic back-ground through a second-languagerequirement and additional liberal artscourses (9 credits). It also includes 6–12credits of approved career-supportiveelectives to allow students to choosecourses in advanced chemistry or relateddisciplines to support their career goals.At least 3 credits are to be in advancedlaboratory courses or research. This degreemay lead to international opportunities,especially if coupled with the Interna-tional Degree Program at OSU.

ALL UNDERGRADUATECHEMISTRY DEGREESThe baccalaureate core requirements aremet by perspectives courses (12), onedifference, power, and discriminationcourse (3), synthesis courses (6), writingintensive courses (9), one fitness course(3), and one biology course (4). Thequarters in which these are taken areflexible, except that synthesis coursesmust be taken at the junior and seniorlevel. Chemistry majors or minors maynot use S/U grading in courses that meetDepartment of Chemistry or College ofScience requirements.

The timing of courses for all degreesand options can be critical, especiallybecause of prerequisites. More detailedinformation and suggestions aboutwhen to take courses are found on theChemistry Department Web site athttp://www.chem.orst.edu. Studentsshould meet with their adviser everyterm. For many options in Track Two,students will also be directed to anadditional adviser in another depart-ment for courses in that option.Students pursuing the business optionmust have approval from the College ofBusiness. For any option involvingbiochemistry courses, it is stronglyrecommended that students select BI212, *Principles of Biology, as thebiology course to fulfill the baccalaure-ate core requirement. BI 314, Cell andMolecular Biology, is also recommended.For options in which CH 462, Êxperi-mental Chemistry, is the required WICcourse, it is strongly recommended thatCH 422, Analytical Chemistry, be takenas a corequisite.

Chemistry offers CH 224H, CH 225H,CH 226H. *Honors General Chemistry(5,5,5), CH 361H, CH 362H, and CH

CHEMISTRY (MA, MS, PhD)

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationAnalytical chemistry, inorganicchemistry, nuclear chemistry, organicchemistry, physical chemistry, solid statechemistry

The Department of Chemistry offersgraduate work leading toward Master ofArts, Master of Science, and Doctor ofPhilosophy degrees in analyticalchemistry, inorganic chemistry, nuclearchemistry, organic chemistry, physicalchemistry and solid state chemistry.

All students are required, early in theirgraduate study, to demonstrate a certainlevel of competence in some or moreareas outside the field of concentration.Such competence is generally demon-strated by completion of three “core”courses at the 500- or 600-level from anapproved list. For the PhD, the requiredwritten preliminary examinations takethe form of a number of “cumulativeexaminations.” Exceptions to thisinclude the concentration in nuclearchemistry, which requires only a singlewritten examination, and concentra-tions in inorganic chemistry or solidstate chemistry, which require only anoral exam. For each field there is a list ofcourses representing subject matter inwhich competence is required of those

electing that field for PhD work, but themajor emphasis of the PhD program isin research rather than formal courses.All degrees require a research thesisexcept for the Master of Science non-thesis degree. There is no departmentalrequirement of a foreign language. Mostgraduate students in chemistry aresupported either as graduate teachingassistants or as graduate researchassistants.

Graduate Area of ConcentrationEntomology

Graduate MinorEntomology

Entomologists continue to be at theforefront of basic and applied research inmolecular biology, ecology, evolutionarybiology, biodiversity, and pest manage-ment. The modern fields of physiology,ecology and systematics have their


origins in research originally undertakenwith insects, and entomologists helplead these disciplines today. Given theunique importance of insects inbiodiversity and ecosystem processes,their roles in crop production and publichealth, and their value as modelorganisms for the exploration of basicscientific questions, there is demand forgraduates who have acquired entomo-logical expertise.

The Entomology Program is acomponent of the Agricultural Experi-ment Station, which has many researchfacilities for students and staff, includingfarms, greenhouses, an aquatic insectlaboratory, and forest insect researchlaboratory. In addition to OSU faculty,state and federal entomologists stationedacross the state are available for consul-tation in their fields of specialization.The Oregon State Arthropod Collectionhas more than 2,500,000 specimens ofinsects and mites and is a recognizedcenter for research in insect biodiversity.

ENTOMOLOGY(MA, MAg, MS, PhD)

Graduate Area of ConcentrationEntomology

The Entomology Program offersqualified candidates opportunities forgraduate study and research leading tothe Master of Arts, Master of Agriculture(non-thesis), Master of Science, andDoctor of Philosophy degrees withconcentrations in various basic andapplied fields within the discipline. Inkeeping with traditional areas ofstrength at the university, a number ofmajor research programs in entomologydeal with problems in agriculture,forestry, and environmental quality.Integrated pest management techniquesare emphasized in the solution of manyof these problems.

There are no specific course require-ments for entomology graduate degrees.Each student will work with their majorprofessor and/or graduate committee toestablish a program of study.

The College of Science premedicalcurriculum prepares students forentrance into standard (allopathic) andosteopathic medical schools. Allopathicmedical schools grant the MD degree,while osteopathic medical schools grantthe DO degree. Osteopathic schoolsinclude training in manipulativetherapy. The pre-professional training isidentical for both.Premedical ProgramStudents can apply to medical schoolwith any major, including nonscienceareas, as long as they take the requiredcourses listed by the school to whichthey apply. Most medical schools haveindicated a preference for a departmen-tal major that is pursued in depth. Sincethe basic entrance requirements includea year each of biology, general chemistry,organic chemistry, and physics, thiscourse work can easily be incorporatedinto many majors. The book, MedicalSchool Admission Requirements, publishedby the Association of American MedicalColleges, lists specific entrance require-ments for each school.

PRE-NURSINGEDUCATION OPTION(Pre-Professional, Non-Degree Program)Mary Ann Matzke, Chief Adviser

The College of Science offers a prepara-tory curriculum designed to meet thegeneral requirements for admission to abaccalaureate degree nursing program.Two years of pre-nursing followed bytwo of professional training at a schoolof nursing lead to a Bachelor of Sciencein Nursing degree (BSN). Satisfactorycompletion of the pre-nursing require-ments does not guarantee admission to aBSN program, since applicants areaccepted on a competitive basis.

BSN programs in the state of Oregonare offered by the Oregon Health andScience University (OHSU) School ofNursing in Portland, which alsoadministers the BSN programs at EasternOregon University (EOU) in LaGrande,Southern Oregon University (SOU) in

Ashland, and Oregon Institute ofTechnology (OIT) in Klamath Falls.Private schools are the University ofPortland School of Nursing, Linfield-Good Samaritan School of Nursing, andWalla Walla College School of Nursingin Portland. Application for admissionto these schools is usually made in thesophomore year.

Associate degrees in nursing (ADN) areoffered by community colleges inOregon. Nurses with associate degreesare qualified to provide direct patientcare. To become a Registered Nurse, bothBSN and ADN graduates must pass alicensing examination administered bythe State Board of Nursing.

NURSING CURRICULUMThe program for nursing leads to abachelor’s degree obtained at a profes-sional school such as Oregon Health andScience University. The courses listedbelow are recommended to fulfill thegeneral requirements for admission to aBSN program. However, requirementsvary from school to school, so studentsplanning a program must check thespecific requirements of the BSNprograms to which they plan to transfer.Freshman Year (43 credits)ANTH 110. *Intro to Cultural

PRE-VETERINARY MEDICINEOPTIONLynn Houck, Chief Adviser

The College of Science offers a pre-professional program for students whowish to pursue careers in veterinarymedicine. This program, especiallytailored to the Oregon State UniversityCollege of Veterinary Medicine, alsomeets admission requirements for mostschools of veterinary medicine in thecountry.

Pre-veterinary students may select amajor in general science or any otherdiscipline while completing theadmission requirements for veterinaryschool. Scientific disciplines such asbiology, microbiology, zoology, oranimal science in the College ofAgricultural Sciences are most frequentlychosen, but areas outside of science alsoare acceptable. A student who isaccepted into a veterinary school afterthree years of pre-professional work, canapply up to 48 credits of the first year ofprofessional study toward completion ofa bachelor’s degree in biology, generalscience, or zoology from OSU. Comple-tion of a bachelor’s degree is requiredbefore one can receive a Doctor ofVeterinary Medicine degree.

Admission to schools of veterinarymedicine is competitive, and completionof the pre-veterinary requirementsfacilitates but does not guaranteeacceptance. Admission committees lookfor a combination of academic abilityand personal characteristics. Academicability includes both the grades receivedin college courses and test scores.Additional information regardingapplication and professional educationmay be found in the veterinary medicinesection of this catalog.

The required courses necessary foradmission to veterinary school includemathematics through trigonometry;

MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY (BS, HBS)Linda Bruslind, Chief Adviser

Clinical laboratory scientists (alsoknown as medical technologists)perform routine and highly specializeddiagnostic procedures in clinicallaboratories. They must be certified bythe American Society of ClinicalPathologists (ASCP) or the NationalCertification Agency (NCA). Certifica-tion requires 12 to 15 months of

training at an accredited professionalschool of clinical laboratory science.Oregon currently has one such schooljointly administered by the OregonHealth and Science University (OHSU)and Oregon Institute of Technology(OIT); Washington and California haveseveral; and other schools are locatedthroughout the U.S. Most clinicallaboratory science schools require abachelor of science degree for admissionto their educational program; however,some schools (notably OHSU) acceptstudents who have had three years ofappropriate college work.

The curriculum in the OSU pre-clinical laboratory science program wasdeveloped in cooperation with nearbyclinical laboratory science schools, andOSU students have shown a high successrate in these schools. Most pre-clinicallaboratory science students complete theBS degree in a field closely related toclinical laboratory science, such asmicrobiology, biochemistry, or zoology,and then attend clinical laboratoryscience school (4+1 program). OSU willaward a second BS degree in ClinicalLaboratory Science to students whocomplete their professional training.Students who enroll in an accreditedclinical laboratory science school afterthree years of college work (3+1program) can qualify for a BS degree inClinical Laboratory Science from OSUafter completion of their professionaltraining.Freshman YearBI 211, BI 212, BI 213. *Principles of

The Department of Geosciences offersthree undergraduate degree programs,Earth Science, Geology, and Geography;two graduate degree programs, Geogra-phy and Geology; and advises studentsin the Geosciences options of the BS inNatural Resource degree and the BS inEnvironmental Science degree. TheGeography Program emphasizes theEarth’s land surfaces and people’sinteraction with the Earth. Geology isconcerned with the internal andexternal processes of the Earth overtime. These two programs merge inbroad areas relating to surficial pro-cesses, remote sensing, earth resources,and the application of computers tonatural and man-made phenomena. TheEarth Science BS offers a generalprogram of study across the Earth

sciences, including geology, geography,soil, hydrologic, ocean and atmosphericsciences. The department offers a minor inenvironmental geosciences appropriate forstudents in the interdisciplinary environ-mental science major who want a strongEarth science element in their program.The department also has a stronginternational commitment that includesthe study of the global environment.

GEOGRAPHY PROGRAMJulia A. Jones, DirectorA. Jon Kimerling, Head AdviserGeography is the study of human useand interaction with the earth and theidentification of spatial and temporalvariation in natural and humanprocesses. Geography uses principles ofmathematics, social science, and naturalscience to analyze and interpret changein the environment. Many geographicstudies require a combination of field,laboratory and computational work.Geography plays an important role inurban and land use planning, resourceevaluation, environmental analysis,education and cartography.

Majors in geography develop abackground in regional geography,resource geography, geographic informa-tion science, and physical geographyand in statistics and disciplines relatedto geography like geology, forestry, andanthropology. The department hasstrengths in the broad areas of resourceand physical geography as well asgeographic information science. Courseofferings combined with excellentfacilities and supportive electives allowstudents to develop particular interestssuch as resource management, environ-mental analysis, land use planning andcartography/geographic informationsystems/remote sensing.

UNDERGRADUATE DEGREEPROGRAMSThe Geography Program offers Bachelorof Science and Bachelor of Arts degreesin geography.

The Bachelor of Science degreeprogram in geography is designed forstudents seeking to acquire scientific andtechnical depth in an undergraduategeography major. Outside of thegeography curriculum, students willdevelop their mathematical, statistical,and computer skills and meet the corecurriculum of the university. Studentswill become acquainted with each of theaspects of geography offered by thedepartment, but will place specialemphasis on geographic informationscience, resource geography and physicalgeography. This degree program focuseson the scientific and technical trainingof professional geographers. It is anappropriate choice for students prepar-ing to enter a teacher training program


or to pursue graduate studies in geo-graphic techniques, resource use andland planning, physical geography, orenvironmental science.

The Bachelor of Arts degree program isintended for students looking forsubstantial breadth in an undergraduategeography major. In addition to thegeography curriculum, students willwork to develop their communicationskills, study a foreign language andsatisfy the core curriculum of theuniversity. Students will becomeacquainted with each of the aspects ofgeography offered by the department,but will place special emphasis onregional, cultural, and resource geogra-phy. This degree program is an appropri-ate choice for students preparing toenter a teacher training program with asocial science emphasis, managementstudies, military science, or employmentin the nontechnical areas of professionalgeography, such as the tourist industry.It is well suited for students preparingfor graduate studies outside the areas ofphysical geography and geographicinformation science.1

Students interested in geography canalso study in the department throughminors in environmental geosciences,earth information science and technol-ogy, regional studies, resource geogra-phy, or rural and resource planning andthrough specializations in the Environ-mental Science, Natural Resources, andGeneral Science degree programs.Students interested in these possibilitiesshould talk to the director or headadviser of the program.

PREPARATIONStudents interested in geography shoulddevelop a sound background in basicmathematics, introductory culturalgeography, and introductory physicalgeology or physical geography as soon aspossible. Students planning to transferto OSU from a two-year program shouldtry to complete their work in statisticsand the equivalent of GEO 105, GEO106, GEO 201, and GEO 202 before theybegin their work in the department.High school or transfer studentsinterested in the programs at OSUshould contact the director or headadviser as soon as possible.

ADVISINGEvery undergraduate major is assignedan adviser from the Geography Program.Each student should meet with theiradviser prior to registration each quarter.The adviser assists in determiningtransfer course equivalency, in planningthe curriculum and can help developminor variations in the requirements forthe degree. Those variations must,however, be discussed with the adviser

and approved by the program early inthe planning process. The departmentoffers a variety of individual and groupdiscussions to help juniors and seniorsplan for employment or graduate studieswhen they complete their degree work.

CAREERSStudy in geography provides studentswith the background necessary to pursuea very diverse range of professions. Theskills of pattern analysis and recognitiondeveloped in the study of geographyfind application in both professionalgeography careers and in a variety ofrelated professions. Professionalgeographers work in land use planning,environmental analysis, governmentresearch groups, university research andteaching, professional cartography, andgeographic information science forprivate, city, state and federal agencies. Italso provides an excellent backgroundfor students interested in teaching at thesecondary and elementary levels,management, studies, tourism, andpublic policy.

GRADUATE DEGREESGraduate programs leading to the MS,MA, and PhD degrees in geography areavailable. Students specialize in resourcegeography, physical geography, orgeographic techniques. There is a thesisand a non-thesis option for the MS andMA degrees. Geography can be a minorprogram for an MAIS degree. Compre-hensive written and oral examinationsmust be passed before the student canbecome a candidate for the PhD degree.Independent research is required for thePhD degree and the MS thesis degree.

GEOLOGY PROGRAMRoy Haggerty, DirectorRobert J. Lillie, Head AdviserGeology is the study of the materials,processes, and history of the solid earthand its fluid envelopes. Geology is anintegrative field, drawing on mathemat-ics, chemistry, physics and biology tounderstand the interactions of thelithosphere, biosphere, atmosphere andhydrosphere. Studies in geologycommonly combine observations andmeasurements from field, laboratory,and computational studies. Geologyplays an important role in decisionsabout resource use, slope stability andthe safety of building projects, naturalhazards standards, mineral explorationand extraction, the basic workings of theearth, and the understanding of theeffects and rates of natural and human-induced change in the environment.

UNDERGRADUATE DEGREEPROGRAMSThe Geology Program offers Bachelor ofScience and Bachelor of Arts degrees ingeology.

The Bachelor of Science degreeprogram in geology provides essentialeducation for careers in energy resourcesand mining companies, geotechnicaland environmental firms, state andfederal government agencies, and inearth science research. The BS programhas the depth necessary for successfulgraduate school entrance examinationsand breadth appropriate to a variety ofgraduate-level specialties. Students areadvised to obtain an advanced degreebefore pursuing a professional career.

The Bachelor of Arts degree program isintended for students who want adiverse, interdisciplinary education. TheBA program is a good choice for studentsinterested in careers in science educationor elementary education, technicalwriting, journalism, law, anthropology,business, resource management, land-use planning, science policy, environ-mental protection, philosophy ofscience, or military science1.

Students interested in earth sciencescan also study in the departmentthrough minors in environmentalgeosciences, geology, or earth informa-tion science and technology andthrough specializations in the Environ-mental Science, Natural Resources, andGeneral Science degree programs.Students interested in these possibilitiesshould talk to the director or headadviser of the program.

PREPARATIONStudents interested in geology shouldbegin to develop a solid background inmathematics, chemistry, and physics assoon as possible. The minimumrecommended background in thosesubjects for an undergraduate degree ismathematics through integral calculus,one year of college chemistry, and oneyear of college physics, preferablycalculus based. Students planning totransfer to OSU from a two-year programshould complete as much of the work inrelated science as possible, and shouldcomplete at least one introductorygeology course. High school or transferstudents interested in the programs atOSU should contact the director or headadviser as soon as possible.

ADVISINGEvery undergraduate major is assignedan adviser from the Geology Program.Each student should meet with theiradviser prior to registration each quarter.The adviser assists in planning thecurriculum and can help develop minorvariations in the requirements for thedegree. Those variations must, however,


be discussed with the adviser andapproved by the program early in theplanning process. The department offersa variety of individual and groupdiscussions to help juniors and seniorsplan for employment or graduate studieswhen they complete their degree work.

CAREERSStudy in geology provides students withthe background necessary to pursue avariety of careers including resourceexploration and extraction; environmen-tal assessment and remediation; researchin volcanology, earthquakes,hydrogeology and diverse geologicdisciplines; engineering geology; andresource planning and study forgovernments at the local, state andfederal levels. A geology degree is also anexcellent background for studentsinterested in environmental law, earthscience and environmental policy, andsecondary education in the physicalsciences.

GRADUATE DEGREESGraduate programs leading to the MS,MA, and PhD degrees in geology areavailable. All degrees require indepen-dent research in igneous petrology-volcanology; mineral deposits-geochem-istry; Quaternary geology-geomorphol-ogy; hydrogeology; or structuralgeology-tectonics-geophysics. Mostgraduate research includes field study.An approved field course of at least 9quarter-credits (or equivalent experi-ence) is prerequisite to candidacy for anadvanced degree. Dual majors can bearranged in some areas; a minor in waterresources is possible. The MS and MAdegrees require a thesis. Comprehensivewritten and oral examinations must bepassed before the student can become acandidate for the PhD degree.

STUDY ABROAD OPTION:1

The BA in Geology or BA in Geographyand international co-degrees can beobtained by participation in an overseasstudy and exchange program for aquarter or one-year study abroad.Students must take geology/geography,science, and/or liberal arts coursesoverseas that can be substituted withapproval from the chief undergraduategeology or geography adviser. Studentswould need to fulfill internationaldegree requirements (i.e., 32 additionalcredits of course work, including fourcourses from the baccalaureate core list,an overseas learning experience, amandatory 1-credit seminar courseIntroduction to Thesis, a senior thesis,and a senior-level equivalency in alanguage).

EARTH SCIENCE PROGRAMRoy Haggerty, Head AdviserEarth science is the study of all aspectsof our planet, including the solid earth(soil and rock), water (fresh water andmarine), atmosphere, and their interac-tions with living systems. Each aspect ofthe earth interacts with the others infascinating and important ways, and thestudy of these interactions is increas-ingly important to our society.

Earth scientists are needed as research-ers to understand complex cycling ofchemicals such as carbon, nitrogen andwater. Earth scientists with broadknowledge of the earth are needed ineducation to teach children about theworld we live in, and to motivate themin all of science by using the mostexciting and accessible of all laborato-ries—the outdoors. Scientists are neededas interpreters in national parks,museums, and other places where thepublic learns about the earth. Further-more, the Earth Science degree may beapplied to a range of other career choicesrequiring a general knowledge ofscience.

The Earth Science program offers theBS degree with a general program ofstudy across the earth sciences. Majorstake classes in geosciences as well asclasses in several allied units at OSU,including Crop and Soil Science and theCollege of Oceanography and Atmo-spheric Sciences. Faculty in these unitswork on the entire spectrum of earthscience, and in collaboration make OSUone of the best places in the world tostudy in this field. Students who excel intheir studies may arrange to work on aresearch project through individualstudy with a faculty member. All majorscomplete one of four options: EarthSystem Science, Earth Science Education,Public Interpretation, or Applied EarthSciences.Footnotes:1= A list of approved courses is available from theCollege of Science office; 15 of these credits canalso fulfill part of the baccalaureate corerequirements.

students with broad training foradvanced work in the emergingdiscipline of earth system science.Students with this degree may decideto go on to study at the graduatelevel in a variety of disciplines.

2. Earth Science Education: Trainsstudents so that they may teachearth science in K–12 schools andother science or math courses ingrades 5 through 9. Initial licensurewill be achievable with this optionand completion of the MS in Mathand Science Education, whichtypically takes an additional year.

3. Public Interpretation: Students gainthe skills needed to interact andteach the public about earth sciencein settings such as local, state, andnational parks, nature preserves, andmuseums. Students completing thisoption may achieve certificationthrough the National Association forInterpretation.

4. Applied Earth Science: Focuses onapplication of earth science tech-niques to a related field of study.Earth science techniques includegeographic information systems(GIS), cartography, remote sensingand environmental assessment.Students receive training through aminor in a related field such asbiology, environmental engineering,fisheries and wildlife, or military


science where these techniques areapplied. This option is recom-mended for students in ROTC.

EARTH INFORMATION SCIENCEAND TECHNOLOGY MINORThe undergraduate Earth InformationScience and Technology minor isdesigned to give students a basicunderstanding of four componentfields—geographic information systems(GIS), remote sensing, cartography, andsurveying—while allowing advancedstudy in a particular field. The EISTminor may be attractive to studentsinterested in geosciences, forestry,environmental science, natural re-sources, bioresource engineering, civilengineering, and other students needinga strong background in these fields. Itmay also be considered the equivalent ofa GIS certificate. Civil engineeringstudents completing the surveying trackminor will be prepared to take theFundamentals of Land Surveying (FLS)examination.


The EIST minor is offered by fourparticipating departments: Civil,Construction and EnvironmentalEngineering, Forest Engineering, ForestResources, and Geosciences, for theirown majors and students from otherdepartments. Courses have beencoordinated so that students completingthe required core courses will be able totake any of the advanced courses,provided the mathematics and/orphysics requirements have each beenmet. Interested students should contactthe appropriate participating depart-ment, where an adviser will be assigned.

Microbiology is concerned with theforms and activities of bacteria, yeasts,molds, and viruses. It plays varied rolesin the practical applications of technol-ogy and medicine, as well as in the mosttheoretical problems of biology.Microbiologists are involved in activitiesas different as the study of genestructure, the control of disease, and theindustrial processes based on the abilityof microorganisms to decompose andsynthesize complex organic molecules.Microbiology is one of the mostrewarding of professions because itprovides the opportunity to be incontact with all the other naturalsciences and thus to contribute in manydifferent ways to the betterment of life.

UNDERGRADUATE STUDIESMany fields of microbiology areavailable to students and researchworkers. These include fundamentalareas such as the physiology, ecology,

and genetics of microorganisms; theapplications of microbiology concernedwith soil and water quality, food safety,immunology, and human, animal andplant diseases. Undergraduate studiesprepare students for admission toprofessional schools, graduate programsin microbiology, and for positions ineducation and as health officers,sanitarians and biotechnicians in privateindustry, state and federal government.

High school students or communitycollege transferees considering a careerin microbiology will find it helpful tohave a strong background in mathemat-ics and chemistry. An excellent advisingprogram is available to undergraduates,and prospective students are encouragedto consult with a departmental adviseror with faculty members working in anarea of interest to them. Upper-divisionstudents are also encouraged to carry outa research project in the laboratory of afaculty member and/or to serve as anundergraduate teaching assistant. Manystudents gain practical experiencethrough internships, particularly in foodmicrobiology. Several scholarships areavailable for microbiology majors. Formore information, contact a microbiol-ogy adviser.

GRADUATE STUDIESThe Department of Microbiology offersgraduate programs leading to the Masterof Science and Doctor of Philosophydegrees.

The Molecular and Cellular BiologyDegree Program provides students withcomprehensive interdisciplinary trainingin molecular and cellular biology whilereserving sufficient flexibility forstudents to specialize in their areas ofinterest. The elements of the corecurriculum include courses in moleculargenetics and cell structure and function,a seminar and ethics class, a series offaculty research presentations, andresearch rotations. Additional coursework is custom-tailored to the individualstudent’s interests and needs. Eachprogram requires 36 units of graduate-level course work, participation inseminar programs, two quarters ofsupervised teaching experience, writtenand oral preliminary examinations,supervision by an individual committeeof five faculty members, and presenta-tion of a thesis containing the results ofpublishable original research.

The program also offers access to all ofthe participating faculty as potentialresearch advisers. Students do threeresearch rotations in the first year andselect their adviser from over 85 facultymembers in the 14 participatingdepartments in five colleges. Therefore,the MCB Program lowers interdiscipli-nary barriers and allows the students toselect the advisers that most closelymatch their interests after they havebeen on campus for one or more terms.


MOLECULAR AND CELLULARBIOLOGY (MS, PhD)The Master’s degree program offers athesis and non-thesis degree option.

MCB doctoral students do researchrotations in three laboratories during thefirst year, and then carry out their thesisresearch in subsequent years under thedirection of a member of the MCBfaculty. The MCB Program lowersinterdisciplinary barriers and allows eachindividual the opportunity to select themost suitable adviser and committee.

Graduate MinorsApplied PhysicsPhysics

Physics is the study of the fundamentalstructure of matter and the interactionsof its constituents. Physicists areconcerned with the development ofconcepts needed for a precise descriptionof nature and with experiments to testsuch concepts.

For students of science and engineer-ing, the study of physics provides thebasic foundation needed to understandthe complex workings of the materialworld, from the forces that build atomsto those that build bridges. For studentsof the liberal arts, the study of physicsprovides an introduction to modernideas about the most fundamental andelemental aspects of nature and howthose ideas developed in their culturaland historical context. Physics is a basicand indispensable tool in all technicalfields, and its development figuresprominently in any discussion of theintellectual history of our civilization.

UNDERGRADUATE DEGREEPROGRAMSThe department offers several programsleading to degrees in physics. A basicphysics curriculum in the College ofScience stresses the detailed andadvanced preparation needed forgraduate work or employment in physics.

Options are available within thephysics degree program that preparestudents for graduate work or employ-ment in an allied field, such as appliedphysics, biophysics, chemical physics,computational physics, geophysics,mathematical physics, and optical physics.


A new curriculum in computationalphysics combines elements of thephysics curriculum with a focus on thescientific, mathematical, and problem-solving skills needed to solve problemsusing computers.

An engineering physics curriculum inthe College of Engineering encompassesadvanced study both in physics and inone of the engineering disciplines. Otherprograms are offered that train studentsfor careers in physics teaching. A physicsminor is available for students majoring inother areas of science and engineering.

The Department of Physics hasrecently introduced a completely newupper-division curriculum, Paradigms inPhysics. Many of the junior-year coursesare taught in 2-credit intensive modules,meeting seven hours a week for aboutthree weeks.

GRADUATE DEGREESGraduate programs leading to the MA,MS, and PhD are offered, emphasizingtheoretical or experimental studies inthe areas of atomic physics, computa-tional physics, nuclear physics, opticalphysics, particle physics, and solid statephysics. The MS degree has both thesisand nonthesis options. Comprehensivewritten and oral examinations must bepassed before the student can become acandidate for an advanced degree.

CAREERSA multitude of opportunities exists forstudents who complete undergraduatedegrees in physics. They includeemployment in technological industries,including electronics, computers, optics,materials science, and aerospace;graduate study leading to an advanceddegree in physics or a related area suchas mathematics, earth sciences, com-puter science, engineering, or as-tronomy; and degree programs leadingto professions such as law or medicine,with specialties in areas in which aphysics background is essential.

PREPARATIONRecommended high school preparationfor students who plan to major inphysics includes one year each ofchemistry and physics and four years ofmathematics through analytic geometry.Mathematics preparation is especiallyimportant; students who are not readyto start calculus (MTH 251. *DifferentialCalculus) upon entering may be delayedin their progress toward a degree.Students anticipating transfer to OSUfrom another institution are encouragedto contact the Department of Physics asearly as possible to discuss theirplacement in the course curricula.

ADVISINGEach undergraduate student is assignedan adviser who helps select the mostappropriate degree program and assistsin planning the curriculum. Minorvariations in the requirements fordegrees are possible, but must bediscussed with the adviser and approvedat an early stage in curriculum planning.Near the end of the degree program, theadviser can help the student to apply foremployment or admission to graduateprograms.

OPTIONSStudents desiring to combine the studyof physics with that of another relatedsubject should consider the optionsbelow, or should consult with a Depart-ment of Physics adviser about substitut-ing upper-division work in a related fieldfor certain of the upper-division physicsrequirements. All such substitutionsmust constitute a coherent program inrelated areas and must be approved inadvance by the Department of Physics.In each case, the program must includeat least 3 credits of PH 401, ^Research,and PH 403, ^Thesis, to satisfy the WICrequirements.

ENGINEERING PHYSICSStudents wanting to earn the BS inEngineering Physics degree shouldregister in the College of Engineering.Engineering physics students completefewer physics courses and more ad-vanced courses in the engineeringdiscipline of their choice. See theCollege of Engineering section of thiscatalog for a detailed description of theengineering physics degree program.

Engineering physics majors have theoption of simultaneously earning twodegrees, a BS in Physics (through theCollege of Science) and a BS in Engineer-ing Physics (through the College ofEngineering). Arrangements for thiscurriculum must be made through aDepartment of Physics adviser.

ASTRONOMYThe Department of Physics offers anintroductory sequence in astronomy,which covers a full range of topics inastronomy (PH 205. *Solar SystemAstronomy; PH 206. *Stars and StellarEvolution; and PH 207. *Galaxies,Quasars, and Cosmology). A lessrigorous descriptive course, PH 104,*Descriptive Astronomy, is also available.Students who desire careers in as-tronomy can design a curriculum underthe Geophysics option, which includesrelated course work in geology and inatmospheric sciences. This curriculumwould qualify the student for graduatework in astronomy.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTSAll undergraduate students must satisfythe university requirements for gradua-tion (see the description of the baccalau-reate core in this catalog) and the collegerequirements (see the descriptions in theCollege of Science or College of Engi-neering section). Specific requirementsfor the degree in engineering physicsmay be found in the course descriptionsof the College of Engineering. Allphysics majors must complete thefollowing lower-division courses: PH 211,PH 212, PH 213, MTH 251, MTH 252,MTH 253, MTH 254, MTH 255, MTH 256,CH 221, CH 222, CH 223, and oneapproved course in computer program-ming. Seniors must complete at least3 credits of PH 401 and PH 403 to satisfythe WIC requirement.

For graduation under the basic physicsoption, upper-division course require-ments include MTH 341, PH 314, PH 411,PH 412, PH 421, PH 422, PH 423, PH 424,PH 425, PH 426, PH 427, PH 428, PH 429,PH 431, PH 435, PH 441, PH 451, PH 461,PH 481, and either PH 415 or PH 365.At least one additional course must bechosen from: PH 365, Ph 415, PH 465,PH 475, PH 482, PH 483, PH 485, PH 495.

To qualify for the Bachelor of Artsdegree in Physics, the student mustcomplete PH 314, PH 421, PH 422, PH423, PH 424, PH 425, PH 426, PH 427,PH 428, PH 429; at least one of: PH 431,PH 435, PH 441, PH 451, PH 461; and atleast 7 additional credits chosen fromamong the non-blanket 400-levelcourses listed for the BS in Physicsdegree. In addition, the student mustcomplete 9 credits of approved electivesin the College of Liberal Arts and mustcomplete or demonstrate proficiency inthe second year of a foreign language.

Graduate MinorsAgricultural and Resource EconomicsEconomics

The Department of Agricultural andResource Economics offers two Bachelorof Science degrees: one in environmentaleconomics, policy, and management andone in agricultural business manage-ment. These degrees open doors toexciting careers in the traditional areasof commercial agriculture, agriculturalbusiness management, and agriculturalpolicy, and in the newer career areas ofnatural resource and environmentalmanagement, marine resources,international trade and development,rural growth and change, and environ-mental and resource law.

The Environmental Economics, Policy,and Management (EEPM) degreeprepares students for public and privatepositions in natural and environmentalresource analysis and management.EEPM students receive strong training ineconomic theory, resource economics,environmental economics, and quantita-tive decision-making techniques.Students learn how to apply economictheory and techniques to “real world”resource and environmental problems.They also are trained to understand andappreciate the noneconomic aspects ofresource and environmental problems,including social, ecological, physical,political, and legal considerations.

The Agricultural Business Manage-ment (ABM) degree prepares students forunique challenges and opportunities inagricultural business careers. The degreecombines economic and businessprinciples and their application to farmsand ranches, companies processing andmarketing farm products, and compa-nies supplying goods and services tofarmers and other businesses. Thecurriculum combines skills in marketing,business management, accounting, andeconomic analysis with a minorappropriate to a student’s professionalgoals and interests.

The BS in Agricultural BusinessManagement and BS in EnvironmentalEconomics, Policy, and Management areoffered at the OSU Corvallis campus aswell as through the OSU AgricultureProgram at Eastern Oregon University inLaGrande.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIESGraduates may pursue a number ofattractive career opportunities. Agricul-tural business management majors maymove directly into professional jobs withagribusiness firms, financial andinsurance institutions, or manage theirown agribusinesses. EEPM students canserve effectively as members of interdis-ciplinary teams involved in resource andenvironmental management, planning,and policy analysis. Government jobopportunities include management,planning, and analysis positions withfederal, state, and local governmentagencies. Private company opportunitiesinclude similar positions with utilitycompanies, banks, consulting firms, andresource management companies. TheEEPM degree also provides an excellentfoundation for graduate work ineconomics, as well as law, public policy,and urban planning.

AGRICULTURAL BUSINESSMANAGEMENT (BS, HBS)The BS in Agricultural Business Manage-ment degree curriculum blends coursework in agricultural economics, busi-ness, agricultural sciences, computerscience, arts, and humanities so thatgraduates can respond to the uniquechallenges and opportunities inagribusiness vocations. Skills aredeveloped in agribusiness finance,agribusiness management, andagribusiness marketing and export trade.With the exception of students pursuingthe Agricultural Economics option, allABM students must select a minor(minimum of 27 credits) appropriate totheir professional goals and interests. Aninternship or project is required tointegrate course work with business-oriented experiences.

The Department of Agricultural Educa-tion and General Agriculture combinestwo programs: General Agriculture andAgricultural Education.

The General Agriculture Program is anundergraduate studies program thatprovides maximum flexibility indesigning and structuring a course ofstudy to meet the students’ individualneeds. General agriculture should beseriously considered by students desiringprograms of study not currentlyavailable in any other agriculturalsubject matter department (such as thoseinvolving a minor in communications,recreation, or environmental studies inagriculture); students wishing to pursuetwo or more areas of specialization (suchas students who are returning to farmsor ranches and who need substantialbackground, for example, in animalscience, crops, and agricultural businessmanagement); students preparing forleadership positions in agriculture thatrequire excellent communication andleadership skills as well as breadth ofagricultural background (such asagriculture teachers, lobbyists, commod-ity liaison persons or extension staff); or


students who have not selected adepartmental major in the College ofAgricultural Sciences but who know theyare interested in an agricultural career.

The goal of the General AgricultureProgram is to help students identify theagricultural career in which they aremost interested and build a course ofstudy that will qualify each student forhis or her chosen profession. Advising isof paramount importance in this processand major emphasis is placed on careeradvising.

The Agricultural Education Programoffers course work serving teachers andleaders in agriculture. The MS, MAgr,MAT, EdM, and MAIS degrees may bepursued with an emphasis in leadership,communication, pedagogy, extensionand/or technical agriculture. Candidateswork with an adviser to developprograms that meet their specific needsas indicated by their occupationalobjectives.

Two minors are available in theDepartment of Agricultural Educationand General Agriculture.

The International AgriculturalDevelopment minor is available for bothundergraduate and graduate studentswho are interested in agriculturaldevelopment abroad. The minor requiresforeign language proficiency, as well asappropriate agricultural and sociologicalcourse work.

The Agricultural Science minor isavailable for undergraduate students whohave majored in an area that requires theaddition of breadth in agriculture to theirmajor program. The minor provides theappropriate technical agriculture back-ground for students interested in agricul-tural management, communication,environmental studies, etc.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES INAGRICULTURAL SCIENCESCareer opportunities for generalagriculture majors are unlimited becauseof the unlimiting nature of the programstructure. Students can return to homefarms or ranches, move into agriculturalmiddle management, become extensionstaff, move into political lobby posi-tions, work in marketing or interna-tional agriculture, become high schoolteachers of agriculture, teach agriculturein community colleges, or do whateverthey have planned to accomplish fromtheir program of study. Salaries varydepending on the position a studentmay strive to achieve.

UNDERGRADUATE STUDIESCURRICULUMHigh school and college transferstudents who are admitted to OregonState University as an undergraduate areeligible to participate in the General

Agriculture Program. General agriculturemajors, in consultation with theirdepartmental academic adviser, mayplan elective course work to emphasizepersonal interests, abilities and careerobjectives. A leadership and communica-tion area of emphasis is available and isespecially designed for those studentswho will need breadth in their technicalagriculture background and excellencein communication and leadership skills.The intent of this area of emphasiswithin the General Agriculture Programis to prepare agriculture’s future leadersin extension, government, and business.A teacher preparation area of emphasis isavailable and allows for Initial TeacherLicensure within the baccalaureatedegree.

Programs in animal sciences provide up-to-date information on methods ofrearing domestic livestock, poultry,equine, and producing meat, milk, eggs,wool, and other animal products.Essential to this information is knowl-edge generated from the fields ofgenetics, nutrition, and physiology. Thevarious teaching and research programsexplore modern areas of animalbiotechnology and data processing andhow they apply to present day livestockand poultry production. Study in theseareas provides the core around whichvarious curricula leading to the BSdegree in Animal Sciences can bedeveloped. To allow students flexibilityin course arrangement, eight specializedprogram options are offered.

Increasing demands for livestock andpoultry products by a rapidly expandinghuman population mean potentialemployment for well-trained individualsin such areas as farm, ranch, feedlotoperation; meat, poultry, egg and milkprocessing, meat grading with the USDA;Federal Cooperative Extension Service,county and 4-H work; sales or technicalemployment with commercial feed,seed, and chemical companies andpharmaceutical houses; agricultural loanofficer; government agency positions atlocal, state and federal levels; the PeaceCorps; as well as in journalism, massmedia, and public policy. In addition,students become prepared to go on toadvanced studies in animal sciences,veterinary medicine, and education.

Graduate students may pursue researchprojects through the Agricultural Experi-ment Station as part of their programs forMS or PhD degrees. Graduate majors areoffered in animal genetics, animalnutrition, animal physiology, growth anddevelopment, nutritional biochemistry,and production.

COOPERATIVE PROGRAMSResidents of Washington and Idaho whoare interested in poultry science maybegin their undergraduate trainingwithin the Department of Animal

Sciences at Washington State Universityor the University of Idaho. Followingtheir sophomore year, these studentsmay transfer to the OSU Department ofAnimal Sciences without paying out-of-state tuition. Students transferring afterone or two years at a community collegeshould also be able to complete therequirements for a BS after three or twoyears, respectively.

Graduate MinorsCrop ScienceSoil Science

Crop science involves the productionand improvement of field crop species—in growing, protecting, developing, andimproving plants that supply the worldpopulation’s food, livestock feed, seed-based industrial raw materials, soil andwatershed protection, lawns, turf, andwildlife crops. Crop science usesbiotechnology and other leading-edgescientific advancements to solveproblems. Courses integrate thescientific principles of botany, chemistry,genetics, physics, plant physiology, andsoil science as the student deals withtheories and practices of crop manage-ment, protection, and improvement.

Soil is one of our most diverse andfascinating natural resources. We use it


daily to grow our food and fiber, disposeof our wastes, build our houses androads, landscape our lawns and gardens,and exercise on in the outdoors. But werarely see it because it is hidden beneathour feet. There is a whole new worlddown there, a world of complexchemical, physical, and biologicalinteractions waiting to be explored.

Soil science is an applied science thatbuilds upon a strong foundation inbiology, chemistry, geology, and physics.Students who like science and thechallenge of solving scientific problemscan do it all in soil science. They studychemical processes that affect plantnutrition and toxic metal mobility,biological processes involved in nutrientcycling and waste disposal, physicalprocesses of water movement into andwithin the soil, and geological processesrelated to soil development and soilmapping. Soil scientists help solveproblems related to forest management,groundwater contamination, erosionand sedimentation, land reclamation,crop production, land use planning, andmany others.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIESCareers for crop scientists are availablein business, industry, farming, research,agricultural chemical industries, seedproduction, seed technology, communi-cations, conservation, and education.Positions are available in agriculturalexperiment stations and extensionservices, state departments of agricul-ture, food processing companies,insurance agencies, lending institutions,and commercial firms, both domesticand international, dealing in theprocessing and sale of farm products,chemicals, and seed.

Careers for soil scientists are availablein agriculture, forestry, education, stateand federal resource agencies, privateconsulting, and research. Farms, ranches,and agricultural supply companiesemploy soil scientists as managers orfield representatives. Soil scientists maybecome teachers of vocational agricul-ture or environmental education, orthey may become county extensionagents in agriculture or natural re-sources. The U.S. Department ofAgriculture’s Forest Service and NaturalResource Conservation Service oftenemploy soil scientists, as do privateconsulting firms in environmentalengineering and land use planning.

ACADEMIC ADVISINGUndergraduate curricula in crop and soilscience are flexible enough to providefor the student’s individual professionalneeds and interests and for a broad-based general education by allowingelectives in other colleges throughoutthe university. Undergraduate advising is

a vital part of the program, and thedepartment is well known for excellencein advising. Advisers and faculty providecurricular guidance and aid in profes-sional extracurricular activities, careerdecisions, and job placement.

Graduate MinorsFisheries ScienceWildlife Science

This department prepares students forprofessional careers in fisheries andwildlife as biologists, managers, consult-ants, and administrators. Course workleading to the BS, MAgr, MS, MAIS, andPhD degrees is offered.

The undergraduate curriculum isbased upon the belief that students in

fisheries and wildlife should be providedwith a good education in biology andecology as the basis for careers inresource science, conservation andmanagement. But fisheries and wildlifescience is not simply a biologicaldiscipline. Educated professionals mustbe aware of the inherent social consider-ations and must operate with a perspec-tive that is integrative. Toward this end,biological, social, economic, andpolitical knowledge is integrated withinthe curriculum to provide students witha broad framework for understandingand resolving resource problems.

The undergraduate curriculum iscomposed of core courses as well asspecializations of 42–53 credits. The corerepresents the educational foundation offish and wildlife conservation, and thespecializations provide the student withan opportunity to build his or hercurriculum to meet specific goals.Working with faculty in formal andinformal settings, students are encour-aged to become engaged in designingtheir own education. Sample specializa-tions might include forest wildlifemanagement, stream ecology, fish andwildlife law enforcement, marinefisheries, aquaculture, conservationeducation and extension, fisheriesbusiness, human dimensions of resourcemanagement, conservative biology, andmany others. Specializations mayinclude typical on-campus courses,special field courses, a full term of coursework at the Hatfield Marine ScienceCenter in Newport, Oregon, or one ormore terms of international exchange.Combined with required internships anda capstone group project, fisheries andwildlife science graduates will be well-prepared to begin professional careers infish and wildlife conservation, or tocontinue their education in graduateschool. For those students unsure oftheir professional goals or seekingdiversity in course work, broad special-izations are available.

Students planning to transfer to thisdepartment should focus on courses ingeneral biology, general chemistry,physical science, and mathematicsduring their freshman and sophomoreyears.

Strategically located for the study offisheries and wildlife, Oregon StateUniversity is within easy reach of statefish hatcheries; lakes, streams and publiclands; refuges; experimental streams andponds; and the Hatfield Marine ScienceCenter at Newport. Research by theOregon Department of Fish and Wildlife,several federal research centers, and theCooperative Fishery and WildlifeResearch Unit is of basic value to theinstructional program.

Graduate programs leading to theMAgr, MS, MAIS, or PhD permit

intensive study in special areas ofinterest under the guidance of nationallyknown scientists. Advanced study infisheries science may be pursued inwater pollution biology, stream ecology,aquaculture, ecology of marine andfreshwater fishes, taxonomy andsystematics, genetics, toxicology, andparasites and diseases of fish. Advancedstudy in wildlife science is orientedtoward resource management and caninvolve almost any vertebrate species,biotic community or habitat. Researchemphasis may be placed on populationdynamics and utilization, life historyand ecology, conservative biology,habitats, food habits and nutrition,behavior, and organization of animalcommunities. Opportunities exist forwork in terrestrial and aquatic systems.

SPECIALIZATIONSStudents consult with faculty to definetheir career and life goals and develop acourse of study to achieve those goals.Specialization plans should be developedprior to the junior year and will bepresented to the faculty for review andcomment. The focus of the review willbe on delineation of the goals and howthe proposed academic program willhelp the student achieve those goals.Individual specialization plans and titlesare subject to approval by the depart-ment head. A 1-credit P/N graded course(FW 207, Specialization Development) isoffered to help students define theirprofessional goals and develop anappropriate academic program. Thefollowing guidelines are provided to assiststudents in preparing a specialization.

Specializations must contain42–53 credits of which a maximum oftwo courses may be lower division. Theyshould contain at least three 400-levelfisheries and wildlife courses. A maxi-mum of 10 credits may be taken beforeformulation and review of the plan. Allcourses in the specialization are inaddition to the courses in the fisheriesand wildlife core. Specializations may begiven titles to reflect their content, buttitles must not substantially duplicatetitles of existing degree programs.

Specializations that include “fish,”“fishery,” or “fisheries” in the titleshould contain at least 12 credits ofaquatic sciences. Specializations thatinclude “wildlife” in the title shouldhave at least 12 credits of terrestrialsciences. Specializations that include“marine” in the title should include aterm of full-time enrollment (at least12 credits) at a marine field station.

Examples of general specializations infishery science, marine resource manage-ment, and wildlife science are available inthe departmental advising office and onthe Department of Fisheries and WildlifeWeb site at http://fw.oregonstate.edu/.

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationBrewing, enology, flavor chemistry,food chemistry/biochemistry, foodengineering, food microbiology/biotechnology, food and seafoodprocessing, sensory evaluation

The Department of Food Science andTechnology offers graduate programsleading toward the Master of Scienceand Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Avariety of research specializations areavailable covering the chemical,physical, microbiological and biotechno-logical, and sensory properties of foods.

Food engineering research concernsmeasurement and modeling of thermo-physical properties of foods, andmodeling of heat and mass transferphenomena. Studies in food microbiol-ogy focus on food safety and thecharacterization and improvement ofwine yeasts. Flavor chemistry and


sensory evaluation studies are ongoingwith a wide variety of foods andbeverages.

Food chemistry research concerns theoccurrence, role, formation, stability andanalysis of various food constituents.Biomass conversion processes involvechemical treatments, enzymatictreatments and microbial fermentations.The work focuses primarily on lignocel-lulosic residues, and involves mechanis-tic studies of chemical and enzymaticreactions, modeling for process optimi-zation and metabolic studies of fermen-tation efficiency. Adulteration in fruitjuice concentrates is being determinedthrough compositional analyses. Otherstudies are directed toward an under-standing of the mechanism of anthocya-nin pigment degradation in foods.

Food processing research deals withthe use of high pressure as a means offood preservation and use of edible foodcoatings to enhance the nutritionalquality of fresh fruits and vegetables.Enological research emphasizes theeffects of wine processing and vineyardpractices on wine quality. Research inbrewing focuses on the effects ofprocessing on beer quality and stability.Dairy research concerns characterizationand use of processing by-products.Investigations on seafood processing andby-product utilization are beingconducted on campus, and at theCoastal Oregon Marine ExperimentStation Seafood Laboratory in Astoria,Oregon. Packaging and sensory evalua-tion of value-added food products occursat the Food Innovation Center inPortland, Oregon.

Students desiring to pursue graduatestudy must have a BS degree or equiva-lent. Students from related fields ofstudy (chemistry, microbiology, biology,etc.) should have a strong background inthe basic sciences and must have earnedat least a “B” (3.0) average during theirlast two years of undergraduate study.

Graduate MinorHorticulture

Horticulture involves the production,genetic improvement, storage, andmarketing of fruits, nuts, vegetables,flowers, and nursery crops; and thedesign, construction, and managementof landscape plantings. It is a science, anart, an avocation, and a business.

Horticultural and other high valuespecialty crops are the largest compo-nent of Oregon’s agricultural industry.Landscape horticulture is a rapidlyexpanding service industry in the urbanareas of the Pacific Northwest andthroughout the nation. Excellent andvaried career opportunities exist forcollege graduates in both crop andlandscape horticulture.

The undergraduate program providesstudents with a solid background in thefundamental life and physical sciences,as well as an understanding of thetechnologies and management systemsused in the horticultural industry.Problem-solving and decision-makingskills are stressed, as is student involve-ment. Field trips are an importantcomponent of many of the courses.

The program has two options:Horticulture Science, and Turf andLandscape Management. The Horticul-ture Science option prepares students forcareers dealing directly or indirectly withthe production, breeding, post-harvesthandling, marketing, and scientificstudy of horticultural crops. The Turfand Landscape Management optionprepares students for careers involvingthe design, construction, and mainte-nance of turf and landscape plantings inresidential and commercial areas, publicand botanical gardens, and golf courses.

Both options allow the student consider-able flexibility to pursue a minor or totailor course work to meet individualgoals. Qualified students interested inthe business aspects of horticulture areencouraged to pursue a minor inbusiness. All undergraduates are requiredto complete either an approved intern-ship or an undergraduate thesis.

A high school student preparing forthe program should follow a well-balanced college preparatory curriculum.Course work in biology, chemistry, andmathematics is strongly recommended.Course work in the social sciences,humanities, arts, and foreign languagesis also encouraged, and the studentshould develop public speaking andwriting abilities.

The program was designed to facilitatetimely completion of degree require-ments by transfer and post-baccalaureatestudents. Students intending to transferinto the program from a two- or four-year institution should complete asmany of the lower-division requirementsas possible. Some professional-technicalcourses from community colleges maybe equivalent to lower-division horticul-ture courses. Equivalent credit can begiven for such courses. Contact adepartmental adviser for furtherinformation.

For additional information about theprogram, contact one of the undergradu-ate advisers: Debbie Maynard (under-graduate adviser, Horticulture Science,and Turf and Landscape Managementoptions); Jack Stang (HorticultureScience option); Tom Cook (Turf andLandscape Management option).

Graduate MinorRangeland Resources

Rangeland resource management is oneof the family of natural resourcesprofessions important to the social,economic, and political development ofOregon, the nation, and the world. It isbased upon ecological principles and isconcerned with the restoration, im-provement, conservation, and use ofrangelands. Since range management ispracticed on lands producing domesticand wild animals, timber, water, andrecreation, concepts of integrated landuse are included in the curriculum. Abalance among soil, domestic animal,wildlife, ecology, and other biologicalsciences is realized in the educationalprogram.

The curriculum below includesuniversity and departmental require-ments for the BS degree and providesemphasis either in science, management,ecology, or allied disciplines. The BSdegree is also offered on the campus ofEastern Oregon University at La Grandethrough an extension of the OSURangeland Resources Department.Facilities for study include classroomand field-oriented educational environ-ments both on-campus and at locationsthroughout Oregon. Field trips are takenin conjunction with specific courses.

Graduate work leading to MAgr, MAIS,MS, or PhD degrees may involve researchon domestic or wild animals, rangenutrition, community ecology, physiol-ogy of range plants, range improvement,range watershed and riparian zonemanagement, rangeland restoration,utilization and management,agroforestry and landscape ecology.

Summer employment with privateindustry, government agencies, and onrange research projects makes possiblelearning experiences while earning asalary. Employment opportunitiesinclude resource management, research,Extension, ranch management, collegeand university teaching, business andindustrial activities related to rangelandresources, and foreign agricultural andresource development assistance.

The Department of RangelandResources is accredited by the Society forRange Management. It is recognizedthroughout the country as one of theleading institutions of rangelandmanagement.

T he college offers degrees in engineering, computer science, construction engineering management, engineering

physics and radiation health physics.Students may choose engineering majorsfrom biological, chemical, civil, computer,electrical and electronics, environmental,industrial and manufacturing, mechanical,and nuclear engineering. Educationalpreparation for land surveying, a licensedprofession in all states, is offered throughcivil engineering. Forest engineering isoffered by the College of Forestry.

THE ENGINEERING PROFESSIONEngineering is the profession in whichknowledge of the mathematical andnatural sciences gained through educationand practice is applied with judgment todevelop ways to economically utilize thematerials and forces of nature for thebenefit of humankind. It is a licensedprofession in all of the states of the U.S.A.,and educational programs must meet highprofessional standards. Engineers are notonly responsible for planning, designing,manufacturing, construction, andmanagement, but also for the safety andwelfare of the public that relies on theirwork.

MISSION AND GOALSThe college’s undergraduate educationalmission is to provide high qualityengineering programs that preparestudents for successful careers, lifelonglearning, and service to their professionand society. OSU engineering graduateswill be known for their technical compe-tence and creativity; for their ability toapply, adapt, and extend their knowledgeto solve a wide variety of problems; andfor their effective communication skills.Their education will provide them with anunderstanding of the ways in which thehumanities, social sciences, basic sciences,and technology interact to affect society.These programs will foster an environ-ment that stimulates learning andpromotes diversity.

The college’s undergraduate programshave four goals:1. Educate students thoroughly in

mathematics, basic science andengineering sciences relevant to theirdiscipline’s professional work, includ-ing fundamental concepts, experimen-tal techniques, methods of analysis,and computational applications.

2. Develop the ability of students tocommunicate effectively and to workcollaboratively in diverse teamenvironments.

3. Develop in students an awareness ofthe historical evolution of knowledgeand technical applications, the state ofcurrent professional practice, theirneed for lifelong learning, contempo-

rary issues, and the impact of engineer-ing actions and solutions in a societaland global context; and to develop anunderstanding of their professionaland ethical responsibilities.

4. Develop the ability of students toformulate and solve problems, tointegrate and synthesize knowledge,and to think creatively, leading to thecapability to analyze and designcomponents, processes, or systems;plan and carry out experimentseffectively; and troubleshoot andmodify processes and systems.

PREPARING FOR ANENGINEERING CAREERTo prepare for the practice of engineering,students complete an accredited programof study leading to a bachelor of sciencedegree in an established engineering field.Each engineering curriculum requires 192credits and includes a balance of courses inmathematics, science, liberal arts, engi-neering science, and engineering design.

Upon graduation, engineering studentsare eligible to take the Fundamentals ofEngineering Examination of the StateBoard of Engineering Examiners in anystate. After passing the examination andcompleting four years of progressivelyresponsible engineering work, graduatesare eligible to take the professionalengineering license examination of thestate in which they intend to practice.

Although some fields of industrial andgovernment employment do not requireformal professional licensure, the educa-tional preparation for the bachelor’sdegree is a necessity for virtually all suchemployment.

Preparation for the professional practiceof land surveying follows a pattern ofeducation, experience, examination, andprofessional licensure similar to thatrequired for professional engineeringpractice.

Students completing the radiationhealth physics degree will be eligible totake part I of the Certified Health Physics(CHP) Examination of the American Boardof Health Physics after one year of appliedhealth physics practice. After six years ofresponsible professional experience inhealth physics, graduates will be eligible totake part II of the CHP examination.

PRE-PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMCourses included in the freshman andsophomore years comprise a pre-profes-sional program of study that produces asolid foundation for professional programstudies at the junior, senior, and advanceddegree levels. The pre-professionalprogram may be taken at Oregon StateUniversity or at any accredited college oruniversity that offers equivalent coursestransferable to OSU.

College of Engineering

College of Engineering 305

The required pre-professional coursesin the program listings are designatedwith a (E). These courses must becompleted before the student is eligiblefor admission to the professionalprogram. The other courses listed areimportant and may constitute prerequi-sites for junior-level courses.

All engineering programs have thesame required pre-professional courses.This allows the flexibility of selecting amajor after one or two years of study.Other majors offered by the college havedifferent required pre-professionalcourses appropriate to that major.

PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMThe professional program consists ofvarious curricula offered at the juniorand senior levels that are designed toprepare students for a professional career.

Each curriculum provides an opportu-nity for specialization through judiciousselection of elective courses. However, tobecome fully versed in a specialtyrequires additional study at the graduatelevel.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTSPre-professional ProgramAdmission to the pre-professionalprogram requires that students meetgeneral university admission require-ments, as published in the OSU GeneralCatalog. Students admitted to the pre-professional program are assigned to thedepartment of their choice for advisingand program planning.Professional ProgramEnrollment in professional programcourses is restricted to those studentswho have clearly demonstrated anability to achieve the high standardsrequired for professional studies. It islimited in each curriculum by thenumber of students who can be servedby the faculty and the facilities of thatcurriculum.

Students must apply to the College ofEngineering for admission to theprofessional program prior to the start oftheir junior year. To apply, grades of“C–” or better and a minimum of2.25 cumulative GPA must be earned inrequired classes. Students must alsocomplete at least 80 credits, including allrequired courses, prior to the term forwhich they are being admitted. Admis-sion may require a higher GPA if thenumber of students applying exceeds aprogram’s capacity.

Students who have completed theirpre-professional studies at a college oruniversity other than Oregon StateUniversity must apply both to the OSUOffice of Admissions for admission toOSU and to the College of Engineeringfor admission to the professionalprogram. Application forms and

information on policies and programsare available from the College ofEngineering.

CHOOSING A MAJORThe selection of a major is often difficultfor students who have not had closeassociation with engineering activities.Students should not be overly concernedwith this problem since the pre-professional curricula of all engineeringprograms during the freshman year areessentially equivalent. This flexibilityallows students to change majors duringthe freshman year without loss ofprogress. Engineering students who areunsure about their choice for a major areadvised to register in pre-generalengineering until they make a decision.

The final selection of a major is asignificant milestone in a student’s life.This choice has a lifetime effect on his orher professional career. Students areadvised to study the options carefullyand to take full advantage of thecounseling available.

ENGINEERING SCIENCEEach engineering curriculum includes anumber of courses that are appropriatefor all engineering students. Because oftheir commonality, these are calledengineering science courses.

Engineering sciences have their roots inmathematics and basic science and serveas a bridge between science and engineer-ing. They involve the application ofscientific methods to practical engineeringsituations and lead to solutions ofproblems that are fundamental in analysis,design, and synthesis.

“Sophomore standing in engineering”refers to a student registered in anaccepted program, who has completed45 credits (with minimum grades of“C–”), including MTH 251, MTH 252,plus three additional science or math-ematics courses listed in an engineeringcurriculum. Many engineering coursesrequire sophomore standing in engineer-ing as a prerequisite.

INTERNATIONAL DEGREEUndergraduate majors in engineeringcan earn a second degree in interna-tional studies. See the InternationalEducation section of this catalog formore information.

GRADUATE STUDYBecause of the growing complexity ofmodern engineering practice, graduatestudy is important for those studentswho wish to specialize. Students whohave established satisfactory under-graduate records and who are lookingfor the greatest opportunity in theirprofessional field should considercontinuation of their education beyondthe baccalaureate degree. Study for the

Master of Science (MS) degree normallyrequires one or two years. The Doctor ofPhilosophy (PhD) degree requires threeto four additional years.

Graduate MinorChemical Engineering

Chemical engineering is the study andmodeling of systems where heat andfluid flow are coupled with chemicalreaction. Examples of systems are thehuman body, ground water, the atmo-sphere, the ocean, and chemical reactors.Natural systems are measured andmodeled in order to understand presentand future behavior. Man-made systemsare specifically designed to convert rawmaterials into more useful products.

Making useful products requires usingmathematics and science to plan,develop, design, operate, and improveprocesses. Some processes are microscale, as in computer chip manufactur-ing, and some are large scale, as inpetroleum refining. Typical productsfrom these processes include computerchips, solar cells, batteries, pharmaceuti-cals, plastics, synthetic fibers, compositematerials, pulp and paper, and consumerproducts ranging from detergents tocosmetics. Chemical engineers findemployment in large high-tech compa-nies, environmental consulting firms,large commodity companies and smallsoftware companies. Employmentprospects for graduates in Oregon andthe Pacific Northwest are strong.

The mission of the Department ofChemical Engineering is to work inpartnership with its professionalconstituents in order to graduatestudents immediately prepared forprofessional practice, whether they be inindustry, government, academia ornonprofit organizations.

The goals of the department are thesame as those for the College ofEngineering.

The curriculum is designed to meetthese goals through course content andhigh levels of faculty-student interac-tion. An endowment supports twofaculty members from industry–LinusPauling Engineers–who are dedicated toinfusing concepts of professionalpractice into the curriculum. Together,they bring 58 years of engineering andmanagerial practice to their 100 percentteaching and job placement positions.Faculty members teach all classes,averaging 40 students, and mostlaboratories, which are limited to15 students. The department worksclosely with its professional advisoryboard and alumni to implement aprocess of continuous improvement ineducation. Students are activelyencouraged to participate in the Collegeof Engineering Co-op Program (MECOP)and in summer internships.

BIOENGINEERINGThe Bioengineering undergraduateprogram (initiated in 1997 as biologicalengineering) provides solid backgroundin biology (anatomy and physiology,biochemistry, molecular and cellular


biology), chemistry, physics and math,in addition to the engineering sciences.Upper-level course work in bioengineer-ing includes analysis and design ofbioprocesses involving geneticallyengineered cells, and plant and animalcell cultures, and the recovery ofproducts from bioreactors, as well asbioinstrumentation, biomaterials andbiomechanics. Students may selectamong the various upper-divisioncourses, and choose a capstone-designexperience in biomedical engineering orbiotechnology, depending on theirinterests. Graduates have the ability toformulate and solve problems withmedical relevance, including the designof devices and systems to improvehuman health, as well as to contributeto the rapidly growing biotech industry.

The department’s undergraduateeducational mission is to provide a highquality engineering program thatprepares students for successful careers,lifelong learning, and service to theirprofession and society. In particular, thedepartment seeks to provide the biotechand biomedical industries, as well asclinical institutions, governmentagencies and universities, with highlyqualified professionals whose uniqueexpertise will foster the continuedviability and growth of these entities.OSU bioengineering graduates will beknown for their technical competenceand creativity; for their ability to apply,adapt, and extend their knowledge tosolve a wide variety of problems; and fortheir effective communication skills.Their education will provide them withan understanding of the ways in whichthe humanities, social sciences, basicsciences, and technology interact toaffect society. This program will foster anenvironment that stimulates learningand promotes diversity.

The goals of the Bioengineeringundergraduate program are to:1. Educate students thoroughly in

mathematics, basic sciences andengineering sciences relevant tobioengineering, including funda-mental concepts, experimentaltechniques, methods of analysis, andcomputational applications.

2. Develop students’ abilities toformulate and solve problems,integrate and synthesize knowledgeand think creatively in order toeffectively plan and execute experi-ments and contribute to design,analysis and improvement ofcomponents, processes, or systems.

3. Develop students’ abilities tocommunicate effectively and to workcollaboratively in diverse teams.

4. Develop students’ awareness of theevolution of knowledge and techni-cal applications, the state of current

professional practice, contemporaryissues, the impact of engineeringactions in a societal and globalcontext, their professional andethical responsibilities, and the needfor lifelong learning.

Civil engineering is a diverse profes-sional field with discipline specialties instructures, transportation, water supplyand water pollution control, environ-mental engineering, geotechnicalengineering, hydrology, hydraulics andwater resources, surveying, oceanengineering, and engineering planningand economics. All CE students receivebasic instruction in all disciplines, withthe option for additional elective coursesin desired areas. The program is sup-ported by highly qualified faculty andstaff that maintain the programs andfacilities at the highest level of quality.

The civil engineering curriculumwithin the Department of Civil,Construction, and EnvironmentalEngineering (CCEE) prepares studentsfor professional and responsibleengineering positions with business,industry, consulting firms, and govern-ment. It includes the basic sciences,social sciences, humanities, communica-

tion skills, engineering sciences, andengineering design in order to teachstudents an integrated approach topractical solutions.

Our mission is to provide a compre-hensive, state-of-the-art education toprepare students for professional andresponsible engineering positions withbusiness, industry, consulting firms orgovernment. Our program educationalobjectives are to:• Provide a compelling education

based in the natural sciences,mathematics, engineering sciences,and the fundamental paradigms,concepts, understandings, applica-tions, and knowledge of civilengineering.

• Develop students’ abilities throughtheir education to analyze, synthe-size, and evaluate information; solveengineering problems and beprepared for modern civil engineer-ing design.

• Provide education for modernprofessional practice, including theabilities for effective communica-tion, collaborative work in diverseteams, ethical decision making,successful management of personaland professional career objectives,and continual development throughlifelong learning and professionalinvolvement.

• Prepare our graduates for eitherimmediate employment or continua-tion into a graduate program in aspecialty area of civil engineering.

• Provide students with knowledge ofcontemporary societal issues and asensitivity to the challenges ofmeeting social, environmental, andeconomic constraints within a globalcommunity.

Our goals are those that are commonacross the College of Engineering (seecollege statement on mission and goals),as well as that of enabling our graduatesto be work-ready in all areas of civil,construction, and environmentalengineering through an integrateddesign-based program offering hands-onexperiences and actual work experiences.

Education in the basic sciences occursprimarily in the freshman and sopho-more years. Engineering science isintroduced at the sophomore year andcontinues through to graduation with acombination of required courses andtechnical electives. Completion of theOSU baccalaureate core providesexperience in the humanities, socialsciences, and other nontechnical areas asadditional preparation for a student’sprofession and life.

Design is the essence of civil engineer-ing. It is introduced during the freshmanand sophomore orientation courses anddeveloped further at the junior and


senior level, culminating in a teamapproach to solution of open-ended,realistic problems drawn from thefaculty’s professional experience.Courses with design content includethose with “design” in their titles. Amore detailed explanation of the designexperience and design course sequencesis contained in the “Civil EngineeringAdvising Guide,” which may beobtained from the department or viewedon the department’s Web site at http://ccee.oregonstate.edu/programs/advising/guides.html.

The CCEE Department offers anundergraduate minor and option inEnvironmental Engineering that provideeducation in water pollution, airpollution, solid wastes and hazardouswastes. (See Environmental Engineeringin this catalog.)

The Earth Information Science andTechnology (EIST) option and minor,described in the Interdisciplinary Studiessection of this catalog, offers coursework in surveying and mapping.

The growing complexity of modernengineering practice requires furtherspecialization in one or more engineer-ing disciplines. This is generally attainedthrough postgraduate study. The CCEEDepartment offers MS and PhD degreeprograms in civil engineering, construc-tion engineering management, environ-mental engineering, geotechnicalengineering, ocean engineering,structural engineering, transportationengineering, and water resourcesengineering.

A unique Master of Ocean Engineering(MOcE) program also is available.

Areas of concentration may becombined to form an integrated civilengineering MS program or MS and PhDminors.

The Industrial and ManufacturingEngineering (IME) department offers twoABET accredited undergraduate degrees:an Industrial Engineering degree and aManufacturing Engineering degree.Industrial Engineering is a different kindof engineering. If you like variety,working with people, and figuring outhow to improve the way something isdone, studying industrial engineeringhere at Oregon State is a great first steptoward a very exciting career. However,if your interests center around how tobuild things, then manufacturingengineering may be a better choice foryou.

The Industrial Engineering degree is avery flexible degree that allows studentsto tailor their program to meet theirindividual career goals. The largenumber of restricted elective credits

allows you to pursue one of two options,the Information Systems EngineeringOption or the Business EngineeringOption, or to pursue a more customizedprogram in your field of interest.

The Manufacturing Engineeringdegree is a very specialized degreefocusing on both high-tech manufactur-ing and traditional manufacturing.Examples of exciting courses in thisdegree program include ElectronicsManufacturing, Lean ManufacturingSystems, and Virtual and AutomatedManufacturing. The ManufacturingEngineering degree offers a hands-oneducation. Students in this program arealso encouraged to participate in thecollege’s MECOP program, a nationallyrecognized industrial cooperativeeducation program.

Students who complete the require-ments for the Manufacturing degree andthe requirements for either of theIndustrial Engineering Options canactually earn two separate degrees, onein Manufacturing Engineering and theother in Industrial Engineering. Theadditional 32 credits typically takes twoadditional quarters to complete.

You will find industrial and manufac-turing engineers doing a wide range ofimportant work in many different fields:1. Using computers and the Internet to

increase manufacturing productivity orto develop e-commerce applications.

2. Wirelessly tracking the distributionof everything from food andmedicine, to airline baggage, andships on America’s waterways.

3. Designing better space suits forNASA, helping farmers harvest cropsmore efficiently, improving hospitaloperating rooms, and much more.

4. In addition, both industrial engi-neers and manufacturing engineersquickly join the ranks of manage-ment. Many go on to run their owncompanies.

If you want to work with people to helpbuild a better world, consider industrialand manufacturing engineering here atOSU.

INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING(BS, CRED, HBS)ABET AccreditedEducational GoalsIn addition to the four College ofEngineering educational goals listedpreviously, the IME Department has thefollowing educational goals for theIndustrial Engineering curriculum.Industrial engineering graduates shouldhave the ability to:1. Design, develop, implement, and

improve integrated systems thatinclude people, materials, informa-tion, equipment, and energy.

Graduate MinorsMechanical Engineering

Mechanical engineers design anddevelop small devices, large equipment

and processes for society. They playmajor roles in the design, testing andoperation of mechanisms, machines,and systems, including processes forenergy conversion and equipment usedin households, businesses, transporta-tion and manufacturing.

In addition to the university baccalau-reate core, the mechanical engineeringcurriculum has its base in mathematics,science, engineering science, and design.Mathematics and science courses occurprimarily in the first two years. Engi-neering science is a major component,which is treated from the sophomoreyear to graduation in a combination ofrequired and technical elective sources.

OSU’s Mechanical EngineeringProgram has all the attributes needed forthe best learning environment: ABETaccredited curriculum, excellent faculty,good facilities (including computers),quality students, strong industrialinteraction, and optimal size (largeenough for good selections of coursesand small enough for good interactionbetween students and faculty).

The department’s mission is toprovide a high quality engineeringprogram that prepares students forsuccessful careers, lifelong learning andservice to their profession and society.The program shares goals common tothe College of Engineering (see Collegestatement on the first page of thissection), as well as those of enablinggraduates to be work-ready in boththermal and mechanical systemsthrough an integrated design-basedoffering, hands-on experiences andactual work experiences.

Engineering design is an integralelement of the program. The philosophyis to “plant the seed” for design at thefreshman level and grow it throughoutthe program. Most of the skills aredeveloped at the junior and seniorlevels, when students have achievedproficiency in the basic technicalrequirements. At the junior level, thedesign process is extensively developedin three courses. At the senior year,design experiences occur in several areas,culminating in the two-term seniorproject in which students in small teamscarry out the design of some product orprocess under the supervision of afaculty adviser. Attention to hands-onactivity add a very desirable “feel” formany aspects of the design process.

A good choice of senior electivesenables students to achieve a degree ofspecialization and depth to match theirinterests. The areas include applied stressanalysis; design and analysis of mechani-cal and thermal/fluid systems; concur-rent engineering; dynamics of mechani-cal and aeronautical systems, controlsystem design, robotics; heating,ventilating, and air conditioning; heat

transfer; fluid dynamics; and metallurgyand materials.

The faculty encourages a vibrantextracurricular program for professionaland leadership experiences. Students areencouraged to obtain at least threemonths of work experience through anindustrial or research internship or toparticipate in a foreign exchangeprogram. The department’s goal is tohave more than 95 percent of itsstudents graduate with such experience.In addition to students having generalinternships, many of the professional-level students participate in the indus-try-driven Multiple EngineeringCooperative Program (MECOP). Thisprogram provides two paid six-monthinternships at over 60 Pacific Northwestcompanies where interns work with acompany mentor and improve theircapabilities for the work environment.

Mechanical engineers often begintheir professional careers with machin-ery, petroleum or electronics industries,government agencies, and firmsproducing transportation and energyconversion equipment. Because of theincreasing complexity of mechanicalsystems, graduate study for the MS andPhD degrees is advisable for studentswho wish to specialize in depth in anyof the above areas. The undergraduatecurriculum provides an excellentfoundation for graduate study.

MATERIALS SCIENCE (MS, PhD)

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationMaterials science: chemistry, chemicalengineering, civil engineering, electricaland computer engineering, forestproducts, mathematics, mechanicalengineering, nuclear engineering,physics

Materials science is an interdisciplinaryscience with roots in many aspects ofscience and engineering. Reflecting thischaracter, the materials science programat Oregon State University is spread overnine departments in three colleges andthere is no department of materialsscience. Rather, there is a Center forAdvanced Materials Research and also aMaster of Science and Doctor ofPhilosophy degree in Materials Science.The Materials Science graduate programis offered by the Graduate School andadministered by the program director forthe university. The degree emphasizes acore competency in materials sciencefollowed by courses in either structuralmaterials or in electronic and magnetic

materials. A student should apply for theMSMS program by forwarding anapplication to the Program Director whowill, on approval, forward the applica-tion to the resident department(s)within the Colleges of Engineering,Science or Forestry indicated by theapplicant. Financial support and thesisguidance is normally provided by theparticipating department. The graduatefaculty are all members of the Center forAdvanced Materials Research.

Applications and other inquiriesshould be forwarded to: Prof. Ralf Busch,Materials Science Program Director,204 Rogers Hall, Oregon State Univer-sity, Corvallis, OR, 97331, USA.

ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICSENGINEERING PROGRAMThe Electrical and Computer Engineer-ing program within the School of EECSoffers two baccalaureate degree pro-grams: the Bachelor of Science inElectrical and Electronics Engineeringand the Bachelor of Science in ComputerEngineering. Both degrees are accreditedby the Accreditation Board for Engineer-ing and Technology (ABET/EAC).Consistent with the mission of theuniversity and college, the mission ofthis program is to provide a comprehen-sive, state-of-the-art education thatprepares our students to be successful inengineering practice and advancedstudies.

Electrical and electronics engineers areconcerned with the design and applica-tion of electronic and integrated circuits,electronic materials and devices, powergeneration and utilization, communica-tions, signal processing, control systems,electromagnetics, microwaves andoptics, and digital computers. Coursework leading to the BS degree incorpo-rates work in these topics as well as thesupporting disciplines of mathematics,physical sciences, and engineeringsciences. Graduates of this program areprepared to either enter employment orpursue advanced degrees throughgraduate studies.

Computer engineers are involved inthe design, construction, programmingand application of digital computers,microprocessors and digital compo-nents. Course work leading to the BSdegree incorporates work in electricalcircuits, electronic materials, digitallogic, computer architecture, micropro-cessors, programming languages andoperating systems. Graduates of theprogram also receive a minor incomputer science. Upon graduation,computer engineers are prepared to seek


industrial employment or to pursueadvanced graduate degrees.

Both programs are supported by well-equipped laboratories providing directexperience with electronic circuits,digital logic, instrumentation, electronicmaterials, electric machines, IC design,optoelectronics, RF techniques, instru-mentation, control systems andmicroprocessors. Students may specializetheir programs by selection of technicalcourses in the junior and senior years.The Multiple Engineering CooperativeProgram (MECOP) offers industrialinternships to selected students.Students in both programs fulfillhumanities and social science require-ments as specified by the university’sbaccalaureate core program.

The program incorporates engineeringdesign principles throughout theundergraduate curriculum. This includesthe integration of societal, economic,legal, regulatory, ethical, environmentaland other factors into the technicalaspects of engineering design. Designactivities begin in the freshman orienta-tion sequence, which incorporates open-ended design problems, and continuesthroughout the curriculum. The designexperience culminates with a yearlongsenior design project. Within the seniordesign experience, students, working inteams, complete all phases of a designproject under the supervision of afaculty member.

The Electrical and Computer Engi-neering graduate program providesopportunities for both thesis and non-thesis programs in the areas of electronicmaterials and devices, microwaves,optoelectronics, communications, DSP,computer architecture, control systems,electric power and electronic integratedcircuits including analog, digital, mixedmode and RF ICs. Graduate work issupported by the department’s well-equipped laboratory facilities. Opportu-nities exist for graduate students toparticipate in many research projectssponsored by private industry andgovernment agencies.

COMPUTER SCIENCE PROGRAMEvery computer chip needs software inorder to function. Software is made upof programs, and the programs are therepresentation of algorithms. Computerscience, then, is the systematic study ofalgorithms.

Computer scientists invent algorithmsthat enable computers to do new things.They know how to prove the correctnessand determine the efficiency of algo-rithms. Computer scientists designcomputer systems able to executealgorithms automatically. The alsodesign programming languages,

compilers, and operating systems.Computer science is an engineeringscience because computer scientists mustbe able to choose the software “buildingblocks” that best match the operationalgoals of the systems being developed.

The Computer Science program withthe School of EECS offers programsleading to BA, BS, MAIS, MS, and PhDdegrees in computer science.

The Computer Science program hasfour principle objectives. Each graduateof the program should be:• Able to design, analyze, program,

debug, and maintain a nontrivialprogram that makes appropriate useof fundamental algorithms and datastructures;

• Aware of the ethical implications ofcomputer use and misuse;

• Able to communicate effectively andto work collaboratively in a teamenvironment; and

• Ready to gain employment as acomputer professional or entergraduate school in a computer-related discipline.

Entering students are able to choose oneof three different options—appliedcomputer science, computer systems,and information systems—all of whichlead to the BS in Computer Sciencedegree.

For students entering the undergradu-ate program, the recommended highschool preparation is four years ofmathematics, science, and English. Highschool programming or computerapplications courses should not be takenin place of other college preparatorycourses.

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationForest EngineeringForest HydrologyForest OperationsForest Soil ScienceHarvestingHarvesting and Silviculture

Graduate MinorForest Engineering

The mission of the Department of ForestEngineering is to advance safe, economi-cal, and environmentally sound forestoperations through outstandingteaching and innovative leadership inresearch and outreach education. TheDepartment of Forest Engineering offersan undergraduate degree leading toprofessional practice in forest engineer-ing, and more broadly defined graduateprograms at the master’s and doctoratelevels with concentrations in foresthydrology, forest soil science, forestoperations, and timber harvestingsystems. The department also offers adoctoral degree jointly with theDepartment of Forest Science thatcombines concentrations in silvicultureand harvesting.

The Forest Engineering undergraduateprogram provides an engineeringeducation within a strong forestrycontext. The undergraduate program isfounded on fundamental principles inforest science and engineering sciencethat enable students to develop the skilland knowledge required for planningand designing engineered forestoperations that achieve forest manage-ment objectives. Specifically, the ForestEngineering undergraduate programprovides fundamental coverage of thefollowing:• Physical and biological aspects of soil

and water resources• Surveying and measurement of land

and forest resources• Analysis and design of the forest

transportation system• Analysis and design of harvesting

operations• Forest land management and

operational planning principlesIntegration of these topics enables forestengineering graduates to develop andmanage safe, economical, and environ-mentally sound forest operations.Design experiences that integrate thetopics listed above and steadily build onprevious course material are distributedthroughout the upper-division portionof the program. The forest operationsdesign sequence during the senior yearprovides an opportunity for students tobring together all the topics from the


curriculum in a project that includes thefield and office engineering tasksassociated with the planning and designof forest operations.

Forest engineering graduates areemployed by private forestry firms,public forestry agencies, logging andconstruction companies, engineeringconsulting firms, and surveying firms.Some graduates establish their ownconsulting businesses after a few years offield experience. Career progressionfollowing graduation can be quitevaried. Some graduates gravitate towardtechnical positions while others movequickly toward management of harvest-ing and other forest operations, or morebroadly defined management of theforest land base.

ACCREDITATION ANDPROFESSIONAL LICENSINGThe Bachelor of Science in ForestEngineering degree is accredited by theEngineering Accreditation Commission(EAC) of the Accreditation Board forEngineering and Technology (ABET) andthe Society of American Foresters.

Completion of the five-year, dual-degree Forest Engineering-Civil Engi-neering program results in a BS in ForestEngineering, accredited by the Society ofAmerican Foresters and ABET, and a BSin Civil Engineering, offered by theDepartment of Civil Construction andEnvironmental Engineering, andaccredited by the Engineering Accredita-tion Commission of the AccreditationBoard for Engineering and Technology,111 Market Place, Suite 1050, Baltimore,MD 21202-4012; (410)347-7700.

Forest engineering is a licensedprofession in the state of Oregon. The BSin Forest Engineering degree has beenapproved by the Oregon State Board ofExaminers for Engineering and LandSurveying (OSBEELS) as evidence ofadequate preparation for the Fundamen-tals of Engineering Examination, thefirst of two examinations required forprofessional engineering licensing. TheBS in Forest Engineering degree, withthe completion of appropriate programelectives, also has been approved byOSBEELS as evidence of adequatepreparation for the Fundamentals ofLand Surveying Examination, the first oftwo examinations required for profes-sional land surveyor licensing.

FOREST ENGINEERING (BS, HBS)The BS in Forest Engineering degree isoffered through a four-year residentcurriculum, and as part of a five-yeardual degree program from whichgraduates receive two Bachelor ofScience degrees, one in forest engineer-ing and one in civil engineering. Thedual degree program is offered inconjunction with the Department of

Civil, Construction, and EnvironmentalEngineering. Curricula for both pro-grams are listed below. Both programsbegin with basic science and mathemat-ics, progress on through engineeringscience and forest science, to arrive atprofessional-level courses in forestengineering that include: surveying, soiland water resources, timber harvesting,operations analysis, road design, andplanning.

In addition to the listed courses, allstudents are required to complete a totalof six months of satisfactory employ-ment in an area related to their major.This is usually accomplished by two ormore summers of work, but it mayinclude work during the academic year.Work performance and personal conductare thoroughly appraised by the Collegeof Forestry.

Students in the dual degree programmust be admitted to the College ofEngineering Professional Programfollowing completion of the pre-engineering course work.

Graduate MinorForest Resources

The Department of Forest Resourcesprovides broad-based education forthose interested in natural resourcesystems and how to manage them. Twoundergraduate degree options areoffered: Forest Management, whichemphasizes the understanding andmanagement of forest resources for

multiple uses, and Forest RecreationResources, which prepares managers forrecreational opportunities in forests andother natural resource areas.

The department is also an activeparticipant in the Natural ResourcesInterdisciplinary Degree program, whichoffers several forestry-related specialties.

The department also collaborates withthe OSU-Cascades Campus in offeringthe degree program in Outdoor Recre-ation Leadership and Tourism.

Students majoring in other programsat OSU may elect a minor in forestrecreation resources. This programprovides basic knowledge aboutrecreation resource planning andmanagement.

GRADUATESGraduates in forest management andforest recreation resources find employ-ment with a variety of governmentaland private organizations. They work asanalysts, managers, forestry andrecreation consultants, suppliers offorestry services, guides, outfitters,concessionaires, managers of resortproperties and recreation managers forfederal, state, and local governmentagencies.

FOREST MANAGEMENT(BS,HBS)The successful forest manager mustunderstand the biological and physicalprocesses of forest ecosystems, as well asthe social and economic forces thatinfluence forest policies and manage-ment actions. The Forest Managementcore curriculum includes basic courses inthe biological, physical, and socialsciences, as well as professional coursesdesigned to prepare students to manageforest resources. Strength in a relatedfield can be obtained by selecting a listedoption or minor in a field such asbusiness administration, forest biology,forest harvesting, forest products, soils,philosophy, public administration, rangemanagement, recreation management,statistics, or wildlife.

The Bachelor of Science in ForestManagement carries the Society ofAmerican Forester’s accreditation ofprofessional forester.

All students pursuing the BS in ForestManagement degree are required to get agrade of “C” or better in requiredcourses taught in the College of Forestryor their approved substitutes taughtelsewhere.

A minor or option is not required inforest management, but many areoffered as a way to complement the corecurriculum. Note that courses requiredfor an option or minor are in addition tothose required for the major. Some mayrequire prerequisites not included in thecore curriculum.

The world demand for wood and wood-based products is growing with popula-tion increases and rising standards ofliving. Over 5,000 different types ofproducts are made from wood because ofits properties and because it is arenewable resource. To meet the growingdemand with minimal environmentalimpacts we must make smarter use ofwood and wood fiber. This creates manyopportunities for 21st century woodscience and technology graduates whoseeducation integrates science, engineer-ing, business and technology.

The Department of Wood Science andEngineering offers several challengingoptions that lead to a BS in WoodScience and Technology. Graduates finddiverse career opportunities in the broadwood products and allied industries orpublic agencies in Oregon, the PacificNorthwest, and increasingly, around theworld. Entry-level positions with the BSare often in marketing, sales, productionmanagement, technical services, orquality control. From that initialposition the number of opportunitiesexpands dramatically. Because society’sdemand for wood products is increasingat a time when available resources aretightening, OSU graduates are ofteninnovative leaders in solving thisdilemma. The undergraduate curriculumis designed to provide a foundation ofknowledge and skills for the lifelonglearning that is so important foradvancement beyond entry-levelpositions.

Undergraduate students must selectone of six options that are designed forspecific career interests or for flexibilityin choice. All students must complete sixmonths of work experience, usuallyduring the summer months. Departmentfaculty provide career counseling andhelp with finding internships andpermanent employment. Scholarshipsfor qualified wood science and technol-ogy students are available through theCollege of Forestry or through a specialdepartmental program. Studentspursuing several of the options describedbelow can easily complete the require-ments for a minor in business adminis-tration or a science field. Students mayalso earn concurrent bachelor’s degreesin science, engineering, or business bytaking additional time to completerequirements.

The department also offers a ForestProducts minor that provides a founda-tion of wood science and technology tohelp students apply their own specialtyto rewarding careers in the forestproducts and allied industries. Thedepartment also offers MS and PhDdegrees in wood science. These graduateprograms ensure a foundation in sciencethat is supplemented with programs

tailored to student interest. Manystudents pursue dual majors in scienceor engineering fields. Interested studentsshould see the department Web page formore information or contact thedepartment head.

The undergraduate degree program isaccredited by the Society of WoodScience and Technology (SWST).

ATHLETIC TRAINING OPTIONStudents completing the AthleticTraining option are eligible to sit theNational Athletic Trainer’s AssociationBoard of Certification (NATABOC)examination. With NATABOC certifica-tion, the graduate is qualified foremployment as a certified athletictrainer (ATC) in a variety of worksettings. These venues include sportsmedicine clinics, hospitals, high schools,colleges and universities, professionalsports teams, and corporate/industrialsettings.

The Athletic Training option is arigorous academic and clinical programdesigned to prepare graduates to enter avariety of employment settings and torender medical care to a wide spectrumof individuals engaged in physicalactivity. The program of study involvesspecialized academic course work andthree years of supervised clinicalexperience. The technical standards setforth by the OSU Athletic Trainingoption establish the essential qualitiesconsidered necessary for studentsadmitted to this program to achieve theknowledge, skills, and competencies ofan entry-level certified athletic trainer,as well as meet the expectations of theprogram’s accrediting agency.

The Athletic Training option employsa competitive admission process, in thatall students interested in applying forthe Athletic Training option mustcomplete prerequisite courses and adirected clinical observation experienceprior to gaining formal admission.Typically, the admission process occursat the end of a student’s freshman year.A competitive admission process is usedbecause there are historically moreapplicants than can be accommodatedin the clinical settings.

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationDietetics and food service management,interaction of nutrition and exercise onhealth, nutrient and gene interactions,nutrient requirements andinterrelationships between nutrients,nutrition across the lifecycle, nutritionalbiochemistry and metabolism,nutritional status assessment

The Department of Nutrition and FoodManagement offers graduate programsleading to the Master of Science (MS)and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees.Study may emphasize nutrition ordietetic management. All programsintegrate related disciplines. A thesisbased on original research is required forthe MS and PhD degree programs.Students may pursue aspects of ongoingprojects in the department or developresearch topics in areas of their owninterest or departmental interest.

Research in the Department ofNutrition and Food Management (NFM)is focused in the areas of humannutrition and the nutrients needed topromote health, the interaction ofnutrition and exercise on health. Theresearch within the department seeksthe discovery of new knowledge,information, techniques and/orinterventions that can promote theoptimal health of individuals andfamilies in Oregon, nationally, andworldwide. Faculty research hascontributed uniquely to the understand-ing of human nutrition requirements,dietary recommendations for selectednutrients, and dietetic management.Departmental faculty are doing research


on the impact of nutrition and exerciseon health, especially nutrient needs ofindividuals across the lifecycle, preven-tion of obesity, nutrients and lifestylesthat improve bone health, and nutrientrequirements and dietary practices ofactive individuals. Departmental facultyhave also been instrumental in definingthe recommendations for human intakeof vitamin B-6 and evaluating itsbioavailability under different dietary,physiological and demographic condi-tions and its interactions with othernutrients, and the study of trace mineralbioavailability and gene interactions,especially fluoride and zinc. Departmen-tal researchers, in conjunction with theLinus Pauling Institute, are studying therole of vitamin E in human health,which has contributed substantially tothe knowledge base used to establishrecommendations for the level ofvitamin E intake that promotes health.Applied nutrition research in thedepartment includes investigation of thebasis for individual dietary behavior andbehavior change among young adults,elderly people and children as it relatesto health promotion, especially inschool and long-term settings. Dieteticmanagement includes organizational/professional productivity, financialcontrol, energy and human relations.Research programs are interdisciplinary,interagency and teamwork oriented.Research outcomes are disseminated tothe public through the department’s

Extension function, research publica-tions, presentations at regional, nationaland international meetings, and throughthe department’s Web site.

Since these majors build upon thenatural and social sciences, enteringgraduate students should have abackground in chemistry, physiology,nutrition, statistics, biochemistry and/orfoods.

Depending upon their concentration,graduates are prepared for positions incollege and university teaching; researchand development in industry, theuniversity, or government; Extensioneducation; and dietetics management.

Information on graduate assistant-ships and fellowships are available fromthe department.

S ince its inception in 1959 as a department, oceanography at Oregon State University has grown to a college with a faculty

of about 100 scientists, all leaders in theirresearch areas. In 1992, the Department ofAtmospheric Sciences was merged withthe college to form the College of Oceanicand Atmospheric Sciences (COAS). Thecollege is now Oregon’s principal sourceof expert knowledge about the atmo-sphere and the ocean, especially thenortheast Pacific, which has long been thefocus of major research efforts by OSUoceanographers. It conducts the onlycomprehensive oceanographic andatmospheric research programs in Oregon.Today, research activities of the collegeextend throughout the world, and to alloceans. Its advanced degree graduateshold oceanographic positions in theUnited States and many other countries,as well as leadership positions in scienceand resource management, education, andthe private sector.

COAS is a member of the Joint Oceano-graphic Institutions (JOI, Inc.), whichrepresents the 10 major oceanographyschools in the U.S. In fiscal year 2002–03,the college received more than$25 million in support from researchgrants and contracts. In 1991, NASAselected the college as a data analysis sitefor its Earth Observation System (EOS)project, part of the U.S. Global ChangeResearch Program.

OCEANOGRAPHY (MA, MS, PhD)

Graduate Areas of ConcentrationBiological, chemical, geological,physical oceanography, interdisciplinaryoceanography

Oceanography, the application of thesciences to the study of the oceans, is aninterdisciplinary environmental scienceconcerned with all processes in theocean: biological, chemical, geological,and physical, as well as the interactionsbetween the ocean and atmosphere. Theoceanography graduate program of theCollege of Oceanic and AtmosphericSciences offers Master of Arts, Master ofScience, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees.

For all areas in oceanography,applicants should have a strongquantitative background and anundergraduate degree in a relevant fieldof science or engineering and one yeareach of chemistry, physics, and calculus.Prior background in oceanography is not


essential. Graduate Record Exam scoresare required of all applicants.

Research in biological oceanographyinvolves the interactions of oceanicplants and animals with each other andwith chemical, physical and geologicalprocesses in the sea. The ecologicalaspects of marine biology in the openocean, coastal zones, and estuaries areemphasized. Candidates should have anundergraduate major in biology orchemistry.

Chemical processes of the ocean andtheir relation to the biological, physical,and geological processes of sea, land,and air are the concern of chemicaloceanography research efforts. Appli-cants must have an undergraduate majorin chemistry. Graduate students inchemical oceanography may concentrateon natural or contaminant organic,nutrient, trace metal, or radionuclidematerials in the oceans, assessing theoceanic effects of such materials andtheir exchanges with atmospheric andterrestrial reservoirs.

In geological oceanography (marinegeology), a broad range of geologicalprocesses that influence the ocean isstudied. Fields of interest include platetectonics and the structure of the oceanbasins, igneous petrology and geochem-istry, sedimentation, paleoceanographyand paleoclimatology, the chemistry ofhydrothermal solutions and coastalsedimentary processes. The undergradu-ate degree of candidates for graduatestudy should show strength in one ormore of these fields: earth science,chemistry, physics, biology or mathematics.

Physical oceanography research coversthe physical processes in the sea,exchange of energy and momentum atthe air-sea interface, and the transmis-sion and absorption of energy in the sea(e.g., light, heat, and sound).

A petition from the pharmacists of Oregon led to the establishment of the Department of Pharmacy at Oregon State

College in 1898. The department grewsteadily and in 1917 became the School ofPharmacy. In 1983 it became the Collegeof Pharmacy.

There are many career options availableto individuals having a pharmacy degree.Some graduates are employed in privatelyowned or chain pharmacies and practicein a community setting, while otherspractice in hospitals or nursing homes.The pharmaceutical industry offers careersin many areas including sales, marketing,public and government relations, manu-facturing, and basic research. Pharmacygraduates are also employed in variouslocal, state and federal health agencies,including the U.S. Public Health Serviceand the Veterans Administration. Indi-viduals who decide to acquire advancedprofessional or graduate training mayfollow a career in research and academics.

College of Pharmacy graduates areeligible for licensure as pharmaciststhroughout the United States.

COURTESY FACULTY ANDPRECEPTORSThe College of Pharmacy utilizes practic-ing pharmacists, physicians, and pharma-ceutical scientists as lecturers in theprofessional pharmacy program and inthe college’s graduate education program.This group includes approximately50 courtesy faculty and over 100 phar-macy preceptors. These individuals makea very important and significant contribu-tion to the educational programs of thecollege.

PHARMACY INFORMATIONProfessional pharmacy education haschanged both in Oregon and throughoutthe United States. To be eligible foradmission to the PharmD program,students must complete a required pre-pharmacy curriculum, which will requireapproximately three years of collegestudy. Completion of the pharmacyprofessional program requires an addi-tional four years.

After completion of the four-yearprofessional pharmacy program, thegraduate is eligible to take a licensingexam administered by state boards ofpharmacy. After passing the licensingexam and completing required internshiptraining, the graduate is licensed topractice as a registered pharmacist. Whiletime requirements may vary from state tostate, many graduates become licensed aspharmacists approximately three monthsafter graduation from Oregon StateUniversity.

THE PRE-PHARMACY PROGRAMRequired courses in the pre-pharmacyprogram may be taken at Oregon StateUniversity or any other accredited collegeor university. The pre-pharmacy programmust be completed prior to beginning theprofessional program.

Required courses must be taken for aletter grade; however, an exception maybe made if a course is only offered pass/nopass. The student should make a specificrequest for waiver of grade requirementdirectly to the College of PharmacyAdmissions Committee prior to taking thecourse.

If a high school graduate fulfills therequirements for admission to OSU, thegraduate may be admitted to the pre-pharmacy program at OSU as a freshman.Four years of high school mathematics,English, history/social studies, andsciences, including chemistry, physics,and biology, and at least two years of aforeign language, as well as speechcommunication, are recommended.

Students from community colleges,other colleges and universities, or other

College of Pharmacy

College of Pharmacy 405

colleges at OSU may transfer into thepre-pharmacy program at any time.

EARLY ADMISSION PROGRAMThe Early Admission Program isintended to guarantee highly qualifiedstudents admitted to Oregon StateUniversity the opportunity to enter theCollege of Pharmacy Doctor of Phar-macy (PharmD) program after thesuccessful completion of the programprerequisites and the maintenance ofcertain academic criteria.

ELIGIBILITYTo be eligible for admission to theCollege of Pharmacy Doctor of Phar-macy Early Admission Program, youmust meet the following minimumcriteria:• You must be admitted to Oregon

State University.• First-year students (entering from

high school) must have a highschool GPA of 3.5 and SAT 1100 orACT 24.

OR• College transfers (students transfer-

ring to OSU for their second yearonly) or students already at OSU intheir first year must have a highschool GPA of 3.5 and SAT 1100 orACT 24 and a transfer college GPA of3.25 or an OSU GPA of 3.25.

Second, third- and fourth-year collegestudents and students with a collegedegree are not eligible for the EarlyAdmission Program.

For more information or to request anapplication, visit http://pharmacy.oregonstate.edu/ or call(541) 737-3424. Students planning theiracademic course work should be sure tospeak with a pharmacy adviser. Admis-sion to the Early Admission Program islimited.

THE PROFESSIONAL PHARMACYPROGRAMEnrollment in the four-year professionalprogram is limited. A student who hascompleted at least the first two years ofpre-pharmacy study must apply directlyto the College of Pharmacy for admis-sion to the professional pharmacyprogram. Application information andforms are available at http://www.pharmCAS.org. Contact the OSUCollege of Pharmacy for other informa-tion or visit the college Web site athttp://pharmacy.oregonstate.edu.Students are admitted to the profes-sional program beginning fall term only.

Once admitted to the professionalprogram, each student is assigned afaculty adviser. Students may register foronly those courses for which they havecompleted the stated prerequisitecourses. Exceptions are allowed only

after approval by the college Academicand Professional Standards Committee.Students will complete the first twoyears of their course work on the OregonState University campus. The thirdprofessional year will be at the Collegeof Pharmacy Satellite Campus at OregonHealth and Science University inPortland, Oregon. Most students chooseto live in the Portland area during thethird year. The fourth year will be off-campus at various pharmacy practicesites throughout the state of Oregon andthe Northwest including Hawaii.Contact the college directly for addi-tional information about the PharmDcurriculum.

Immunization and vaccinationrequirements for PharmD students aremore strict than for other universitystudents. PharmD students must satisfyall college immunization and vaccina-tion requirements before starting classes.Failure to meet these requirements maydelay enrollment.

The four-year professional pharmacyprogram provides a broad, scientificallybased education. Through appropriateselection of professional elective coursesin the fourth year, a student mayconcentrate in such areas as community,clinical, geriatric, administrative,industrial pharmacy, or prepare forgraduate study.

Pharmacy students are expected todevelop a scholarly attitude toward theexperimental basis of pharmacy. Duringthe professional curriculum, students arerequired to complete advanced humananatomy and physiology laboratories.These laboratories may include the useof human cadavers and live animals andare designed to complement otherdidactic courses in the curriculum. In allinstances, the animals are humanelytreated and anesthetized if the proce-dures are deemed painful; animals arehumanely euthanized at the terminationof the laboratory exercises.

The pharmacy profession is experienc-ing profound changes in its practice andin its education for that practice. Thesechanges include an increased orientationtoward patient care in addition to thetraditional study of pharmaceuticalproducts. All students will be required togive immunizations (shots), take medicalhistories from patients, and performphysical examinations. These experi-ences will involve the asking of sensitivequestions and physically touching otherpeople. In the fourth professional year,students are assigned to off-campuspractice sites where they are supervisedby licensed pharmacists who arecourtesy faculty members of the college.Practice sites are located primarilythroughout Oregon. Completion ofpracticum courses at these off-campus

practice sites generally requires up to40 hours per week at the practice site.Practicum experience may includenights, evenings, and weekends. Practicesites are varied but include communitypharmacies, hospitals, long-term carefacilities, and outpatient clinics.Students must possess a valid Oregonpharmacy intern license to be eligible forplacement in off-campus practicumcourses.

Academic performance is not the solecriterion for admission to and/orcontinuation in certain courses in theCollege of Pharmacy, such as externshipsand clerkships. In addition, the collegemay find it necessary to evaluate aperson’s background to determine his orher likelihood of maintaining standardsof professional conduct and perfor-mance that are necessary in the phar-macy profession. An evaluation maytake into consideration current perfor-mance, as well as past experience andactions. A valid Oregon Intern license isrequired for enrollment in theexternship and clerkships.

To become licensed by the state ofOregon to practice pharmacy, anindividual must meet at least threecriteria:1. Possess a baccalaureate or PharmD

degree in pharmacy from anaccredited U.S. college of pharmacy,

2. Pass the North American PharmacistLicensing Exam (NAPLEX), and

3. Complete the Oregon Board ofPharmacy internship requirements.

A criminal record or a criminal recordinvolving illegal drugs may makegraduation from the pharmacy programat Oregon State University and/orlicensure by the Oregon Board ofPharmacy impossible.

ACADEMIC AND PROFESSIONALSTANDARDSDoctor of Pharmacy students must meetuniversity academic regulations andadhere to the university student code ofconduct. University academic regula-tions are published three times a year inthe Schedule of Classes. Student conductrules and expectations can be found onthe OSU Web site at http://oregonstate.edu/admin/stucon/.

In addition, the College of Pharmacyfaculty has adopted the requirementslisted below to assure that all pharmacygraduates have the best possibleeducational background and preparationfor their pharmacy practice careers. Insome cases the College of Pharmacyacademic standards and requirementsare stricter than the university academicregulations.1. Four years are normally required to

complete the PharmD program.Students must graduate with the


PharmD degree within five years ofbeginning the program. For example,a student beginning the professionalprogram in September 2002 mustgraduate by September 2007.

2. To advance to the third professionalyear and enroll in classes on thecollege’s Portland campus, students:a. Must successfully complete* all

core classes in the first twoprofessional years with a cumula-tive GPA of at least 2.00 and a P inall P/N courses;

b. Can have no more than one “D”grade in required core pharmacycourses; and

c. Must have earned a bachelor’sdegree.

3. To enroll in off-campus, practicumcourses in the fourth professionalyear, students:a. Must successfully complete all core

pharmacy classes in the first threeprofessional years with a cumula-tive GPA of at least 2.00 and a P inall P/N courses;

b. Can have no more than two “D”grades in required core pharmacycourses and no more than one “D”grade in a core course sequence.

4. To graduate with the PharmDdegree, students:a. Must successfully complete all

professional core pharmacycourses with a cumulative GPA ofat least 2.00 and receive a pass (P)grade in all P/N courses; and

b. Can have no more than two “D”grades in required core pharmacycourses and no more than one Dgrade in a core course sequence.

A student may re-enroll one time ina core pharmacy course for thepurpose of earning a grade above C–or earning a P in a P/N course. Forexample, if a student fails or receivesan N in a core pharmacy course, heor she may re-enroll in that course toearn a grade of C– or better or earn aP in a P/N course.

5. If the student fails a second course orreceives a second N, he or she is eligiblefor suspension and the student’s statusin the college will then be reviewed bythe Academic and ProfessionalStandards Committee.

6. Students may register for only thosecourses for which they have com-pleted the stated prerequisitecourses. Exceptions are allowed onlywith approval of the college’sAcademic and Professional StandardsCommittee. It is the student’sresponsibility to avoid enrollmentin, or to de-enroll from, any coursefor which he or she lacks a requiredprerequisite. Enrollment in a course

for which the student lacks therequired prerequisite could result ina failing grade for that course.

7. Incompletes, an “I” grade, (seeAcademic Regulation 17 in theSchedule of Classes) in requiredprofessional pharmacy courses thatserve as prerequisites for otherprofessional courses must beremoved within three weeks after thenext term begins. Failure to removethe ‘incomplete’ within those threeweeks could result in a failing gradefor the subsequent course.

The assistant dean for Student Affairsand the College of Pharmacy Academicand Professional Standards Committeeare responsible for enforcing thesestandards. The committee and theassistant dean have authority to developguidelines for the administration ofthese standards.

Any student may petition theAcademic and Professional StandardsCommittee for permission to deviatefrom the standards. Petition forms areavailable at 203 Pharmacy Building.* “Successfully complete” is defined asreceiving a grade of “D” or higher andremoval of all ‘incomplete’ grades. Corepharmacy courses include all pharmacyprofessional courses. In addition,anatomy (Z 441, 442, 443), biochemistry(BB 490, 491, 492), and physiology(Z 430, 431, and 432) grades will beincluded in the core pharmacy GPA ifthese courses were taken after startingthe PharmD professional program.

ACADEMIC STANDINGAt the conclusion of each quarter and atthe end of each academic year, the gradepoint average (see University AcademicRegulation 19 in the Schedule of Classes)in core pharmacy courses is calculatedand academic standing in the college isdetermined according to the criteriaoutline below. Core pharmacy coursesinclude all pharmacy professionalcourses. In addition, anatomy (Z 441,Z 442, Z 443), biochemistry (BB 490,BB 491, BB 492), and physiology (Z 430,Z 431, and Z 432) grades will be includedin the core pharmacy GPA if thesecourses were taken after starting thePharmD professional program.Academic WarningStudents with a term or cumulative corepharmacy course GPA between 2.00 and2.35 and/or receiving a grade less than“C” in a term will be placed on Aca-demic Warning.Academic ProbationStudents with a term GPA less than 2.00but with a cumulative core pharmacyGPA greater than 2.00 will be placed onAcademic Probation. Students onAcademic Probation for a total of two termswhile enrolled in the college are eligible for

Suspension. Students who have asubsequent term GPA above a 2.00(pharmacy core courses) will be removedfrom Academic Probation.Deferred SuspensionStudents with a cumulative corepharmacy GPA of less than 2.00 orstudents who have failed to makeappropriate progress in the curriculum(see Academic and Professional Stan-dards) will be placed on DeferredSuspension. Students on Deferred Suspen-sion are eligible for Suspension. TheAcademic and Professional StandardsCommittee will review the status of astudent on Deferred Suspension in thecollege at least quarterly. After review,the committee may recommendsuspension if, for example, the studenthas not complied with his/her programof study, failed to make reasonableprogress in the program, or if thestudent’s core GPA has fallen. Students onDeferred Suspension must meet with theassistant dean for Student Affairs to developa program of study to improve theiracademic standing and make reasonableprogress in the curriculum. These studentsmay not be allowed to take any pharmacycourses. Students who attain a cumula-tive core pharmacy GPA greater than2.00 and begin to make reasonableprogress in the curriculum will beremoved from Deferred Suspension andplaced on Academic Warning for at leastone term.SuspensionStudents who are on Deferred Suspen-sion and have a subsequent term GPA ofless than 2.00 in core courses will besuspended from the college. Failure tomake reasonable progress in thepharmacy curriculum may also result insuspension. A student who has been ingood academic standing may besuspended for significant academicfailure and/or significant breaches ofexpected professional conduct includingcriminal activities or academic dishon-esty or significant breaches of universitystudent conduct (see http://oregonstate.edu/admin/stucon). TheAcademic and Professional StandardsCommittee will review all student casesinvolving possible suspension. Thecommittee’s decision is then communi-cated to the assistant dean for StudentAffairs.

The assistant dean for Student Affairsand the Academic and ProfessionalStandards Committee are responsible forenforcement of the college’s AcademicRequirements. The committee andassistant dean have authority to developguidelines for administration of theserequirements. Guidelines, policies, andprocedures relating to these require-ments are approved by the collegefaculty. Any student may petition the


committee for deviation from the college’sAcademic Requirements by completingthe College of Pharmacy petition form.These petitions are available at thePharmacy office, room 203.

ADMISSION STANDARDSThe College of Pharmacy endeavors toadmit students who have the academicand individual ability to complete therigorous Doctor of Pharmacy curricu-lum, meet State Board of Pharmacylicensing standards, and become highlycompetent and caring pharmacists.Persons admitted must possess theintelligence, character, integrity,compassion, humanitarian concern, andphysical and mental health necessary topractice pharmacy.

Admission to the PharmD program ishighly competitive and limited innumber. From a typical pool of severalhundred applicants, a subset with thehighest prior academic achievement inrequired pre-pharmacy courses, strongwritten communication skills, favorableletters of recommendation, and anoverall understanding of and commit-ment to a health career as demonstratedin their application materials are invitedfor a personal interview. Furtherassessment of the candidate’s relevanttraits is made during the interview. Notall applicants are chosen for an inter-view and not all of those who areinterviewed are admitted. Admissiondecisions are based on all availablerelevant information and the followingthree primary considerations:a. Academic ability – completion of

and grade point average in pre-pharmacy course work. A student’sbackground and knowledge,especially in the chemical andbiological sciences, must be currentand up-to-date. Each applicant’scourse work is evaluated individu-ally, but in general, science coursework should have been completedwithin 5 years of application.Demonstrated ability to complete afull-time, science-based curriculum isimportant.

b. Verbal and written communicationskills in the English language. Theseabilities are assessed by thecandidate’s spoken languageproficiency, his or her writtenbiography and statement of purpose,an extemporaneous writing sampleobtained during the interview, andcomments provided by references.The ability to participate in generalconversation, understand and act oninstructions, and provide informa-tion to patients and health profes-sionals in the English language iscritical. While fluency in a secondlanguage is highly desirable,

proficiency in both oral and writtenEnglish is of primary importance.

c. General knowledge and understand-ing of a health career in general anda pharmacy career in particular.While pharmacy work experience isnot required, some knowledge andunderstanding of modern pharmacypractice is very important. Anapplicant’s willingness and motiva-tion to be a part of a healthcaredelivery system and to provide directpatient care is a primary componentof the admission decision.

RETENTION STANDARDSIn order to be retained in the PharmDProgram, each student must meet allrequirements outlined in each of thestandards described below. Each facultymember and preceptor will apply thesestandards in the assessment of studentperformance within individual classesand clerkship experiences.Academic StandardsThe PharmD curriculum requiresessential abilities in informationacquisition. The student must have theability to master information presentedin course work in the form of lectures,discussion groups, case studies, small-group projects, practicum experiences,computer technology, written material,and projected images. The student musthave the cognitive abilities necessary tomaster relevant content in basic scienceand clinical courses at a level deemedappropriate by the faculty. He or shemust be able to develop reasoning anddecision-making skills appropriate to thepractice of pharmacy. These skills maybe described as the ability to compre-hend, memorize, analyze, and synthesizematerial. The student must be able toretrieve, critically evaluate, interpret,and communicate information con-tained in the scientific and professionalliterature. Similarly, the student mustuse clinical data, patient assessment, andappropriate medical literature tooptimize therapeutic drug regimens. Thestudent must be able to efficiently andaccurately obtain information fromother health professionals, medicalrecords, and pharmacy records and usethis information on behalf of the patientto identify, assess, solve, and preventdrug related problems. He or she mustdemonstrate sound clinical judgment inevaluating, assessing, and recommend-ing patient therapeutic plans to achieveintended therapeutic outcomes. Toperform these activities, the studentmust be able to obtain a pharmacyhistory from a patient or family memberas described below. In addition, he orshe must be capable of perceiving thesigns of disease or adverse drug effects asmanifested through visual observation

of the patient, performing a limitedphysical examination (e.g., bloodpressure, pulse, otic, chest and cardiacauscultation), and obtaining capillary orvenous blood samples from the patient.Students must also be able to administermedications via injection.Technical and CommunicationStandardsTechnical standards, as distinguishedfrom academic standards, refer to thosephysical, cognitive, and behavioralabilities required for satisfactorycompletion of all aspects of the curricu-lum, and the development of profes-sional attributes required by the facultyof all students at graduation. Theessential abilities required by thecurriculum are in the following areas:motor, sensory, verbal and writtencommunication in English, intellectual(conceptual, integrative, and quantita-tive abilities for problem solving anddecision making), and the behavioralcharacteristics and social skills necessaryfor the practice of pharmacy.

The student must demonstrate thetechnical skills and knowledge tomanage systems for storage, preparation,and dispensing of medicines; accuratelyand efficiently evaluate drug orders onprescriptions; accurately and safelycompound drugs in appropriate dosageforms; package and dispense dosageforms; apply computer skills andtechnological advancements to practice;and supervise technical personnel towhom these responsibilities may bedelegated.

The student must be able to commu-nicate effectively with patients, thepatient’s family members or caretaker,and other healthcare practitioners. Notexclusively, but most commonly, thiscommunication is in English. Oneelement of communication is obtaininginformation from others and correctlyanalyzing the content of that informa-tion. In particular, the student musthave the ability to obtain a pharmacyhistory from a patient or family member.This requires the ability to understandverbal and written information,recognize the significance of non-verbalresponses, efficiently assess all informa-tion obtained, and, if appropriate, makea well-focused follow-up inquiry. Thestudent must be capable of responsive,empathetic listening to establish rapportin a way that promotes openness onissues of concern and shows sensitivityto potential cultural differences. Asecond element of good communicationis the coherent provision of informationto others, both verbally and in writing.The student must be able to process andcommunicate information on thepatient’s status, with accuracy and in atimely manner, to pharmacy colleagues


and other healthcare providers. Thisinformation needs to be communicatedin a succinct, yet comprehensive mannerand in settings in which time available islimited. Written or dictated druginformation assessments, communica-tions to other health professionals,patient records, patient assessments, andprescriptions must be complete andaccurate. Appropriate communicationmay also rely on the student’s ability tomake a correct judgment in seekingsupervision and consultation in a timelymanner.

PROFESSIONAL, BEHAVIORAL,AND ETHICAL STANDARDSIn addition to the academic, technical,and communications standards citedabove, retention of students in theprogram is also based on certain non-academic factors. These non-academicfactors can significantly influence thelikelihood of the student maintainingstandards of professional conduct andperformance that are required in thepharmacy profession. He or she mustpossess attributes, which includecompassion, empathy, altruism,integrity, responsibility, and tolerance.He or she should always treat otherstudents, faculty and staff, co-workers(other pharmacists, supportive person-nel, other health professionals) andpatients with respect and dignity. He orshe must have satisfactory physical andmental health, the emotional stability tofunction effectively under stress, and theability to adapt to an environment thatmay change rapidly without warning, orin unpredictable ways.

The student must be able to under-stand the basis and content of medicaland pharmacy ethics. The college has aresponsibility to the public to assurethat its graduates will become fullycompetent pharmacists who adhere tothe American PharmaceuticalAssociation’s Code of Ethics. Studentsadmitted to the PharmD program andcontinuing students must comply withuniversity academic regulations andadhere to the university Student Code ofConduct as found on the university Website: http://oregonstate.edu/admin/stucon/.

To participate in and complete off-campus practicum courses students mustpossess a valid Oregon Intern License.Inability to obtain an Oregon InternLicense may prevent completion of off-campus externships and clerkships andprevent a student from continuing inthe program and completing therequirements for graduation. Studentsmust not abuse alcohol or other drugs. Ahistory of drug abuse or alcohol relatedarrest or conviction might precludeobtaining an Oregon Intern License andmake licensure as a pharmacist impossible.

All standards pertaining to on-campuscourse work also apply to all off-campuspracticum experiences and clerkships. Inaddition, practicum sites will have theirown requirements. Inability to attain apracticum placement or to satisfactorilycomplete a practicum experience mayresult in removal from the PharmDprogram.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ANDDISABILITY ACCOMMODATIONThe College of Pharmacy, as a part ofOregon State University, is committed tothe principle of equal opportunity. Thecollege does not discriminate on thebasis of race, color, creed, religion,national origin, gender, sexual orienta-tion, age, marital status, disability, anddisabled veteran or Vietnam-era veteranstatus. When requested, the college willprovide reasonable accommodation tootherwise qualified students withdisabilities. Disabled students must workwith and be approved by the Services forStudents with Disabilities office.

GRADUATION STANDARDSPharmD graduates are required to havemet all requisite Retention Standardsand to be qualified to enter the field ofpharmacy and to possess a commitmentto lifelong learning that will allow themto adapt to changes in pharmaceuticalcare and healthcare throughout theircareer. It is the responsibility of allPharmD students to cooperate and workwith the College of Pharmacy and theuniversity to meet these standards asdescribed. Students with disabilitiesmust also cooperate and work with theServices for Students with Disabilitiesoffice to request those accommodationsthat they feel are reasonable and neededto fulfill these standards.

TEACHINGThe college was established in 1975 andbegan its professional education programin 1979. Beginning Fall 2003 with theClass of 2007, 40 residents of Oregon and

eight nonresident students were selectedto enter the OSU College of VeterinaryMedicine. These students will complete allfour years of their professional educationin Corvallis. Completion of the profes-sional program leads to the Doctor ofVeterinary Medicine (DVM) degree.

OSU’s College of Veterinary Medicine isfully accredited by the Council onEducation of the American VeterinaryMedical Association.

Comprehensive research training isprovided through graduate programsleading to the MS degree in veterinarysciences or the PhD degree in comparativeveterinary medicine.

There are two departments supportingthe DVM doctoral program: BiomedicalSciences and Clinical Sciences.

RESEARCHBiomedical research and research trainingare conducted by the college in coopera-tion with the OSU Agricultural Experi-ment Station and the EnvironmentalHealth Sciences Center. This research is ofeconomic and public health significancebecause it aims to develop new informa-tion to improve the health of animals andpeople.

The college emphasizes research ondiseases of food and fiber animals and onproblems of present and potential concernto Oregon’s valuable livestock andagricultural industries. The college alsoshares a regional and national responsibil-ity for providing information to assist inthe control of animal diseases primarilythrough the Veterinary DiagnosticLaboratory and the Veterinary TeachingHospital. Diseases of terrestrial wildlife,aquatic, and companion animals are alsostudied because of their importance in foodproduction, recreation, and companionship.

The research program is amultidisciplinary effort, bringing togetherfaculty expertise in anatomy, bacteriology,biochemistry, biophysics, clinical veteri-nary medicine, immunology, laboratoryanimal medicine, neurosciences, parasitol-ogy, pathology, physiology, toxicology,virology, and other disciplines.

Advice from livestock and poultryproducers, practicing veterinarians,producer and commodity groups, theOregon Department of Agriculture, andothers helps establish research priorities.

Other faculty research and serviceactivities are described in this catalogunder the Extension Service, the Agricul-tural Experiment Station and the Environ-mental Health Sciences Center.

PUBLIC SERVICEThe service programs focus on theprevention, treatment, and control ofanimal diseases. The college assistsveterinary practitioners, animal owners,and the general public through the

College of Veterinary Medicine

Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, theVeterinary Teaching Hospital, and theVeterinary Extension programs.

The Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratoryaccepts animals and tissue specimens fordiagnostic testing. The laboratory is fullyaccredited by the American Associationof Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians.It is equipped with diagnostic andanalytical facilities for microbiological,chemical, toxicological, and pathologi-cal examinations. Clinical pathologyservices are available for both referringveterinarians and clinicians in theVeterinary Teaching Hospital.

The Veterinary Teaching Hospital isdesigned and equipped for diagnosis andmedical and surgical treatment ofequine, food animal, and camelidpatients. Patients are admitted directlyfrom animal owners and throughreferrals from practicing veterinarians inOregon and the Pacific Northwest.Imaging (radiology, ultrasonography,and scintigraphy), anesthesiology,pharmacy, intensive care, and otherservices are available to support thehospital functions. In early 2005, a smallanimal teaching hospital will be in placeto serve our students and the public.

The Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratoryand the Veterinary Teaching Hospitalserve as learning centers where seniorveterinary students study all aspects ofdisease, including history, clinical signs,diagnosis, treatments, and prognosis.

The Veterinary Extension programcarries the results of research to animalowners and Oregon’s practicing veteri-narians through meetings, conferences,publications, and personal consultationswith Extension veterinarians andresearch scientists, teachers, clinicians,and diagnosticians within the school.

Providing continuing education forveterinarians is also considered a majorresponsibility of the college. One- tothree-day intensive courses of instruc-tion on specific topics are offeredperiodically.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES INVETERINARY MEDICINEOpportunities for employment inveterinary medicine are very good.Nearly 70 percent of the professionallyactive veterinarians in the United Statesare engaged in private practice. Somepractices are limited to particular groupsof animals, such as food animal, equine,or companion animal practices. Othersinvolve specialties such as surgery,ophthalmology, cardiology, or radiology.In addition to private practice, there arenumerous teaching and researchopportunities in academic, governmen-tal, and industrial situations. Anexpanding area is laboratory animalmedicine, in which veterinarians are

often employed by medical schools,large health-related research organiza-tions, or universities and public health.

VETERINARY STUDENTEXPENSESOregon resident students registered inthe College of Veterinary Medicine willpay tuition and fees of approximately$4,937 per term. Students from thecontract states will pay the same fees asOregon resident students. Nonresidentstudent fees currently are $9,428 perterm.

Veterinary students must provide theirown special clothing, as well as thedissection, surgical, and diagnosticinstruments and notes/books stipulatedby the faculty.

Occasional field trips are scheduled inthe veterinary curriculum. Transporta-tion is provided by the university forrequired trips, but students must providetheir own food and lodging. Foroptional trips, the student is usuallyexpected to provide transportation,lodging, and food. All other expenses,such as residence hall and livingexpenses, are the same as for students inother colleges of the university.

Students desiring additional informa-tion about veterinary medicine shouldwrite to the Office of the Dean, Collegeof Veterinary Medicine, Oregon StateUniversity, 200 Magruder Hall, Corvallis,Oregon 97331-4801, or [email protected].

POLICY ON LABORATORY ANDDUTY HOURSDuring the professional curriculum,several laboratory exercises in thepreclinical years require the use of liveanimals. The exercises are designed tocomplement didactic lectures anddemonstrations through hands-onexperience with various species ofanimals. In all instances, the animals arehumanely treated and anesthetized ifthe procedures are deemed painful;animals are humanely euthanized at thetermination of some of the laboratoryexercises.

During the clinical years, animals areused in laboratory exercises in theteaching of basic surgical skills andmedical procedures. In most instances,the animals are anesthetized. Strictprotocol is enforced regarding theanimals’ well-being in exercises requir-ing post-operative recovery.

During the fourth year of the veteri-nary curriculum, students are assignedon a rotational basis to the variousdivisions and services engaged in theoperation of the Veterinary TeachingHospital. Emergency services are offeredto the public on a 24-hour basis, sevendays a week.

Student assignments in the clinicalblocks are time-demanding, andstudents are required to spend time atnight, weekends, and holidays in thedelivery of health care to patients.Hospital operations continue seven daysper week, and students are responsiblefor their assigned tasks regardless of timeand day of week.

If a studentwishes to transfer any other credits, he/sheshould submit a written request to theGraduate Studies Committee.

GRADUATE STUDY PROGRAMSAND THE DOCTORALCOMMITTEEBy the end of the fifth term of enroll-ment, the student, in consultation withtheir major professor and members oftheir graduate committee (consisting ofa minimum of five members of thegraduate faculty, including two from theCollege of Veterinary Medicine and arepresentative of the Graduate School),must decide upon three areas of majoremphasis. The student submits to theassociate dean of the College of Veteri-nary Medicine, who in consultationwith the college’s Graduate StudiesCommittee, approves or suggests

changes. After the approval of thestudent’s committee by the dean of theGraduate School, the committee meetsto develop the student’s study program.The associate dean of the College ofVeterinary Medicine approves thestudent’s program with the recommen-dation by the college’s Graduate StudiesCommittee.

RESIDENCEThe student must enroll for three out offour consecutive quarters at OSU, and aminimum of 36 credits of graduate workmust be completed at OSU as specifiedin the graduate section of this catalog.

LANGUAGE REQUIREMENTSNo foreign language is required.

TEACHING EXPERIENCEGraduate students in the PhD programare expected to obtain some formalteaching experience. All students in thedoctoral program are required to teachat least one (but not more than 10)hour(s) of formal lecture per year in oneof the professional or graduate coursesoffered by the College of VeterinaryMedicine. The instructor-in-chargeguides students by indicating topics andobjectives of a particular lecture, andstudents develop written outlines andaudiovisual materials with theinstructor’s approval. The teachingexperience is incorporated into thestudent’s program. The teachingexperience should not interfere withcourse work research, unless thedesignated amount of teaching has beenclearly specified in the employment oradmission agreement. A letter ofevaluation is solicited from the instruc-tor-in-charge of the course by theassociate dean.

PRELIMINARY EXAMINATIONThe student must pass comprehensivepreliminary examinations, consisting ofboth written and oral examinations, ator near the completion of their coursework, but no later than 24 months fromthe start of the study. The student mustfirst pass a written test, which isfollowed by an oral examination.Elapsed time between the two testsshould be approximately 14 days if at allpossible.

For the written test, the associate deanof the College of Veterinary Medicinedesignates the referee. All committeemembers submit questions to the refereeexcept the Graduate School representa-tive. The questions should be such thatthe student can complete them within afour-hour period per committeemember. The exam is “closed book”unless otherwise noted by an examiner.The referee conducts the exam and is

responsible for distributing the student’sanswers to, and collecting the gradedexams from, each committee member.The exam is graded on a Pass/No Passbasis with comments. The refereenotifies the student’s committee of thescores on all questions and the commit-tee then determines if the student haspassed the examination. If the studentfails the exam, they may retake thewritten exam no sooner than threemonths later. Only one retake ispermitted.

The purpose of the oral examinationis to test the student’s analytical andcreative ability, communication skills,and comprehensive knowledge in thespecialized fields designated by thestudent, as well as in basic sciencesrelated to the fields. In the oral prelimi-nary examination, the exam may coverthe student’s proposed research topic,although no more than one-half thetime should be devoted to specificaspects of the proposal. Oral examina-tions are conducted according to theGraduate School’s guidelines.

THESISThe doctoral candidate in the College ofVeterinary Medicine must carry outindependent research and submit athesis to demonstrate the originality andexcellence of their research. The thesismust be a significant contribution toknowledge, based on the candidate’sown investigation.

FINAL EXAMINATIONThe student must pass a final doctoralexamination as specified by the OSUGraduate School. This includes a publicseminar and an oral defense of theirthesis. At least one complete academicterm must elapse between the time ofpreliminary oral examination and thefinal oral examination.

GRADUATE STUDIESCOMMITTEEThe Graduate Studies Committee of theCollege of Veterinary Medicine plays acentral role in maintaining a standard ofexcellence and in improving the qualityof graduate education programs in thecollege. In the admission process, thecommittee reviews each applicant torecommend rejection or admission intothe graduate program. Even if anapplicant fulfills the minimum require-ments for admission to the doctoralprogram, the committee may notrecommend admission when it does notfind sufficient evidence for theapplicant’s potential for excellence in aspecific field.

When the doctoral program for acandidate is formulated, the associatedean of the College of Veterinary


Medicine consults with the GraduateStudies Committee to assure that theprogram is consistent with the guide-lines of the College of VeterinaryMedicine.

The Graduate Studies Committeereviews academic progress of eachdoctoral candidate in the spring quarter.Faculty members familiar with eachstudent, including his/her academicadviser, will be asked to provide theirrecommendation/information for thisevaluation. If a student’s progress isjudged satisfactory, the student will beso notified in a letter from the commit-tee. If progress is less than fully satisfac-tory, the committee will recommendappropriate action to the associate deanof the College of Veterinary Medicinebefore the end of the quarter. Failure ofthe student and their major professor toaddress areas of concern in a satisfactorymanner may result in dismissal from thegraduate program. Removal of a studentfrom the graduate program will be doneby the graduate dean, upon recommen-dation from the dean of the College ofVeterinary Medicine.Approved by the OSU-CVM faculty on January 24,1991. Statistics requirement approved by theOSU-CVM faculty on October 29, 1992.

For more than acentury, militarytraining has beenoffered at OregonState University.Fulfilling aprovision of theMorrill Act of1862, which gaveCorvallis College itsfirst public support,an Army CadetCorps wasorganized in 1873.

ROTC at Oregon State is made up of the Departments of Military Science, Naval Science, and Air Force Studies. In 1917, the

Department of Military Science becameresponsible for all military training underthe National Defense Act of 1916. This actexpanded and standardized the trainingof Army Officers by colleges and universi-ties and established the Reserve OfficerTraining Corps (ROTC). During WorldWar II, OSU became known as the “WestPoint of the West” for commissioningmore officers than any other non-militaryacademy in the nation. At the end ofWorld War II, the secretary of the Navycommissioned the Department of NavalScience (NROTC) on this campus toprovide the training of both Navy andMarine Corps officers. On July 1, 1949,the U.S. Air Force activated an AFROTC unitthat is called the Department of Air ForceStudies. OSU is now one of 48 colleges anduniversities that offers education for allthree military departments.

Originally, two years of military scienceand tactics were required of all able-bodied male students, but since 1962,ROTC has been voluntary. Since 1965,two-year programs have been available forstudents who have finished two years ofcollege but have not taken ROTCpreviously.

As opportunities for women to serve asofficers in the armed forces grow,opportunities for women to participate inROTC programs expand. Women havelong been eligible to take ROTC coursework for credit. Since 1970, they havebeen enrolled as cadets in Air Force ROTCand, since 1973, have also been enrolledas cadets and midshipmen in the Armyand Navy ROTC programs.

MISSION AND OBJECTIVESThe ROTC selects and prepares youngmen and women, through a program ofinstruction coordinated with the stu-dents’ normal academic curriculum, forcommissioning and service as officers inthe regular and reserve components of theArmy, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps.

UNIFORMS AND ALLOWANCESStudents in each of the units receiveuniforms to be worn at drill periods andon special occasions. Travel to and fromany summer camps or cruises is paid.While at camp or on cruise, the membersreceive food and quarters at governmentexpense in addition to basic pay. (See theindividual sections for further informa-tion on the various camps and cruises.)Those selected for the scholarshipprograms receive tuition, books, and feesplus $250 to $400 a month subsistencepay for up to 40 months.

FLIGHT TRAININGEligible Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and AirForce ROTC students may be selected forflight training upon their successfulcompletion of the program and commis-sioning. AFROTC students may be eligibleto join the Civil Air Patrol Squadron at areduced membership fee. This programenables participating cadets to receive upto eight hours of flight orientation for free.

HOW TO ENROLLSee the Army, Navy, or Air Force sectionsof this catalog for enrollment details forthe various ROTC programs. All threedepartments have staff available through-out the year during normal school hoursto answer any inquiries regarding theROTC programs.

Air Force Studies

The mission of Air Force ROTC is toprovide professional preparation for futureAir Force officers. The Department of AirForce Studies offers students, in virtuallyall academic areas, the opportunity toqualify for a commission in the UnitedStates Air Force while simultaneouslycompleting university undergraduate orgraduate degree requirements.

Today’s Air Force is a highly technologi-cally advanced branch of the militaryforces. Whether a student’s interest lies inflying the most advanced aircraft in theworld or in the development of state-of-the-art technology, the Air Force can offerexciting and challenging opportunities tothose who qualify. Graduates go on activeduty in career fields where they can applytheir education.

Additionally, they assume advancedleadership and management responsibili-ties not normally found in civilian entrylevel positions. The Air Force ROTCapproach to education encourages inquiry,analysis, critical thinking, imagination,judgment, and individual participation, onthe part of each student. Air Force studiescourses are open to all university students.

The Military Science program isintended for students with the character-istics and attributes of a “scholar-athlete-leader.” The program is specificallydesigned to give college students on-campus instruction and experience inthe art of organizing, motivating, andleading others. It includes instruction inleadership to develop self-discipline,physical stamina, and professionalbearing.

All courses offered by the Departmentof Military Science are fully accreditedand applicable towards fulfillingacademic requirements for graduation.The university offers each eligiblestudent the opportunity to compete fora commission as an officer in the UnitedStates Army while earning a collegedegree. There are both basic andadvanced programs with multiple entrypoints which can be tailored to astudent’s needs. Those interested inaviation careers have the opportunity tobecome officer pilots in fixed or rotarywing aircraft. Merit scholarship opportu-nities exist for students in any approvedacademic discipline, particularly inbusiness, engineering, science, and socialscience. Uniforms and books areprovided free of charge.

BASIC PROGRAMThe basic program is voluntary and isopen to all students, comprising the1- and 2-credit, lower-division courseslisted below, and is normally completedduring the freshman and sophomoreyears. Students may also satisfy theadvance program prerequisites oraccelerate their progress throughprevious military experience or bycompleting Summer Camp (MS 214).During the basic program’s five-weeksummer camp, students receive roomand board, travel expenses, and approxi-mately $900 for the period involved. Nomilitary obligation is incurred for

participation in basic program classes,and students can decide whether theywant to apply for the advanced program.

ADVANCED PROGRAMStudents who desire to enroll in the two-year advanced program, comprising the3-credit, upper-division courses listedbelow, must apply and be accepted. Onlythose students who have satisfied thebasic program requirements describedabove are eligible.

Students in the advanced programreceive $350 to $400 per monthsubsistence allowance during the schoolyear. During the five-week summerportion of the program, they receiveroom and board, travel expenses to andfrom the program location, andapproximately $900 for the periodinvolved. Veteran students enrolled inthe ROTC program receive theseamounts in addition to any othereducational benefits.

The advanced summer program isnormally attended between the cadet’sjunior and senior years. The universityawards 6 credits for successful completion.

CAMPUS-BASED SCHOLARSHIPPROGRAMEach year, the Army ROTC program hasdedicated three- and two-year scholar-ships awarded to local students attend-ing or planning to attend OSU. Applica-tions are accepted anytime during theyear. Applicants must meet physicalrequirements, have a minimum cumula-tive college GPA of 2.50, SAT score of920+ or ACT of 19+, no criminal record,and be of good moral character.Scholarship pays full tuition, $900 peryear for books, and a stipend of $250 to$400 per month while the student is inschool. For an application, contact theDepartment of Military Science at(541) 737-3511.

SIMULTANEOUS MEMBERSHIPPROGRAMAdvanced Course ROTC students mayalso elect to join reserve or nationalguard units. As officer candidates, theyreceive pay and allowances from bothROTC and their assigned unit while, atthe same time, gaining essential militaryknowledge prior to their commissioning.Students participating in this programcan earn over $7,000 in two years.

SERVICE OBLIGATION ANDACADEMIC DELAYCurrent laws and regulations requireeach advanced program graduate toaccept a commission upon graduationand to fulfill an eight-year militarycommitment. This may be satisfied byeight years of reserve forces duty in theUSAR or ARNG or by a combination ofactive duty and reserve forces duty,

usually four years active duty and fouryears reserve forces duty.

Delays in reporting to active duty mayalso be granted for up to four years toselected students who are enrolled in afull time program of instruction leadingto an acceptable advanced degree. Noadditional service obligation is incurredby this academic delay.

W hen you consider Oregon State University for your graduate study, you are looking at a university

with a well-deserved worldwide reputa-tion for excellence in teaching andresearch.

As the state’s land, sea, and space grantinstitution, Oregon State offers a varietyof graduate programs in physical sciences,life sciences, engineering, social sciences,arts and humanities, and professionalfields. OSU’s diverse curriculum leads to80 different graduate degrees or certifi-cates, most of them with flexible optionsthat will allow you to put together theprogram that’s most suited for youracademic and career goals.

A dedicated and highly regardedgraduate faculty, a well-equipped library,comprehensive special collections, andexceptional research facilities keepOregon State at the leading edge ofgraduate education. Linus Pauling, anOregon State alumnus and the onlyperson to win individual Nobel prizes intwo different categories, selected OSU asthe repository for his papers.

Research and teaching assistantshipsare available to allow you the opportunityto work with people who are leaders intheir fields while furthering your educa-tion. In addition to being outstandingteachers, many OSU faculty members areinternationally renowned for theirresearch. In 2002–03, Oregon StateUniversity received more than$125 million in total external support forresearch and scholarship.

With those strengths in research andteaching, Oregon State produces degreeholders who can compete successfullywith the best in their fields.

But life isn’t all study and research, andwhen you’re ready to take a break, you’llfind that Oregon State is the ideallocation for that as well. Whether youwant to be active or relax, attend a sportsevent or a lecture, go to a concert or aplay, or do just about anything else,you’re likely to find what you want atOregon State or just a short distance away.

OSU is located in Corvallis, a friendlycommunity of 50,000 people in the heartof Oregon’s lush Willamette Valley. Theclimate is generally cool and rainy inwinter and warm and sunny in summer;average rainfall is 37 inches.

The snow-capped Cascade Mountainswith their many downhill and cross-country ski areas are just an hour away tothe east, and the exciting Oregon Coastwith miles of sandy beaches is an hour tothe west. Portland, Oregon’s largest city, is85 miles to the north and Eugene is40 miles to the south. Both cities haveoutstanding performing arts centers thatdraw some of the world’s top entertain-ment attractions.

The 420-acre main OSU campuscontains 51 major buildings surroundedby green lawns, towering shade trees, andflowering shrubs. Housing for many OSUundergraduate and graduate students isprovided by residence halls on campus,and cooperatives, sororities, fraternities,and family student housing just off thecentral campus.

In addition to the main campus, thestate owns and leases many acres of forestand farmland that are used by theuniversity for instruction and research.OSU’s Hatfield Marine Science Center atNewport serves as the main coastalfacility for Sea Grant, oceanography, andfisheries programs. For many graduatestudents, study and research throughthese off-campus facilities means a directlook at the natural resources andcharacteristics of the Pacific Northwest.

The institution that is now OSUopened in 1858 as Corvallis College, asmall academy. College-level study beganabout 1865, and the first three baccalau-reate degrees were awarded in 1870.Graduate programs began a short timelater. In 1868, Corvallis College wasdesignated by the Oregon Legislature asthe “agricultural college of the state ofOregon.” From 1868 until 1885, thecollege continued under the direction ofthe Methodist Episcopal Church but waspartly state supported. In 1885, the stateof Oregon assumed full control of theinstitution.

From a small, classical liberal artsbeginning, Oregon State has grown into amajor university with 11 colleges andmore than 18,000 students. The3,000 graduate students come from all50 states, and there are some 800international graduate students fromabout 90 countries.

Oregon State granted its first advanceddegree (A.M.) in 1876. Residencerequirements for the master’s degree wereannounced in 1897.

Responsibility for graduate study atOSU has changed a number of times overthe years. In 1910 it was placed under astanding committee of the faculty. In1933 all graduate work in the StateSystem of Higher Education was placed inan interinstitutional Graduate Division.At Oregon State, an associate dean and aninstitutional graduate council were put inimmediate charge of graduate study. Thefirst doctor of philosophy degrees wereconferred by Oregon State in 1935. InOctober 1946, the State Board of HigherEducation again gave the institutionsdirect responsibility for their graduateprograms and assigned graduate work atOregon State to the Graduate School.

The primary aims of the Oregon StateUniversity Graduate School are to preparestudents to use the disciplinary tech-niques necessary for the creation of new

Graduate School

knowledge and to assist students inacquiring specialized knowledge in oneor more fields. At the same time,graduate programs may provide thestudent with the opportunity to acquirean educational background broader thanhis or her specialty.

The graduate educational process isdesigned to help the student attain ahigh level of scholarship. The student isassisted in developing the skills ofassimilation, interpretation, organiza-tion, evaluation, and application ofknowledge. Such scholarship increasesthe student’s breadth of learning andprepares him or her for roles of leader-ship and participation in the broaderareas of culture and society. The idealgraduate program permits the student tospecialize, but at the same time developa broad educational base.

The communication of new knowledgeis an important part of the educationalprocess. Creating, interpreting, andcommunicating knowledge are relatedprocesses at OSU. The Graduate Schoolattempts to help students develop skills tocarry out these processes.

from an accredited college oruniversity, and

• A combined GPA of 3.00 on the last90 quarter credits (60 semestercredits) of graded undergraduatework on the first baccalaureatedegree plus all work completedthereafter. Minimum GPA foradmission to only graduate certifi-cate programs is set by the depart-ments that supervise the certificates.Applicants requesting admission toonly graduate certificate programsshould contact their departments tolearn about minimum GPA andother admission requirements.

OR:• A four-year baccalaureate degree

from an accredited college oruniversity and a 45-quarter credithour graduate degree from anaccredited university.

Minimum entrance requirements forinternational students are listed underInternational Student Requirementsbelow.

Students not meeting minimumrequirements still may be considered foradmission with the support of theiracademic department, plus review andapproval by the University GraduateAdmissions Committee. For theseapplicants, decisions may rely moreheavily on non-cognitive criteria.However, the university encouragesapplicants whose overall undergraduateGPA on the last 90 credits is less than3.00 (4.00=A) to take the GRE.

Students whose baccalaureate degreesare awarded by an institution that issuesnon-graded transcripts will be consid-ered for admission with the support ofthe department’s written evaluation ofthe quality of the student’s transcriptrecord.

Satisfaction of minimum entrancerequirements does not guaranteeadmission, since the number of qualifiedapplicants far exceeds the number ofplaces available. As a consequence, manywell-qualified applicants may not beaccommodated.

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTREQUIREMENTSGeneral graduate admission standardsfor international students require thefollowing:• The equivalent of a U.S. baccalaure-

ate degree of at least four yearsduration with a B average (equiva-lent 3.00 on a U.S. 4.00 gradingscale) in the last two years, plus allsubsequent graded course work; or afour-year equivalent baccalaureatedegree with a two-year equivalentgraduate degree. Minimum GPA foradmission to only graduate certifi-cate programs is set by the depart-ments that supervise the certificates.Applicants requesting admission toonly graduate certificate programsshould contact their departments tolearn about minimum GPA andother admission requirements. And,

• English language proficiencydemonstrated by a TOEFL minimumscore of 550 (paper-based test) or213 (computer-based test). TheTOEFL score must be no more thantwo years old at the time of theapplicant’s first term of registration.A minimum score of 7.0 on theIELTS may be used as an alternativeto the TOEFL test. And,

• Documentation of sufficientfinancial resources to attend OregonState University as a graduatestudent.

The English language proficiencyrequirement is waived for internationalstudents who have completed abachelor’s or advanced degree at a U.S.university. University conditionaladmission of international studentspresenting TOEFL scores of at least 500(paper-based test) or 173 (computer-based test) may be granted if theapplicant is otherwise fully admissible.Conditional admission based on Englishlanguage proficiency may only begranted to applicants seeking admissionto a graduate degree program. Condi-tional admission based on Englishlanguage proficiency may not be grantedto students seeking admission to only agraduate certificate program. Condi-tional admission for degree-seekingstudents requires (1) on-campus testingof English language proficiency prior toenrollment and (2) compliance with thesubsequently specified plan for Englishand academic course work during eachquarter until such time as the studentqualifies for regular admission. Indi-vidual departments may requireadditional documents such as GRE andGMAT test results or higher English andacademic standards. For detailedinformation, refer to the Office ofAdmissions and individual graduatedepartments.

APPLICATION DEADLINESDepartment DeadlinesAcademic departments may establishtheir own application deadlines, whichmay be substantially earlier than thegeneral university deadlines describedbelow. In such cases, departmentaldeadlines supercede the more generaluniversity deadline. Some departmentsalso admit students for specific termsonly (e.g. only fall term). Applicantsshould contact the proposed majordepartment for deadlines and any otherrestrictions.

In the absence of earlier departmentaldeadlines, the following universitydeadlines exist:Students Within the U.S.Absolutely no later than 30 days prior tothe first day of classes.International Students Outside theU.S.To allow adequate time for students toobtain visas and make travel arrange-ments, the following deadlines havebeen established for internationalapplicants applying from foreignaddresses:• June 15 for fall term• September 15 for winter term• December 15 for spring term• March 15 for summer term

SUMMER SESSION ADMISSIONSee the Special Campus Programs sectionof this catalog.

ADMISSION STATUSStudents may be admitted to theGraduate School under the followingcategories.

ADVANCED-DEGREE STUDENTS1) Regular Graduate Students. These

students have been accepted by theuniversity and by a major depart-ment to work toward an advanceddegree.

2) Conditionally Admitted GraduateStudents. Students who have notmet the formal admission require-ments but whose accomplishmentshave convinced the UniversityGraduate Admissions Committeeand their major departments thatthey have potential for success asadvanced degree candidates may beconditionally admitted as follows:a. Students from nonaccredited

institutions must complete atleast one term of satisfactory workat Oregon State, after which theymay be admitted with fullstanding in the Graduate School.


b. Students whose preparation doesnot warrant full admission to theGraduate School but who mayprove acceptable later mustsatisfactorily complete specifiedconditions to demonstrate theirability to carry out graduate-levelwork.

c. International students whootherwise have met all formaladmission requirements butwhose TOEFL score is in the rangeof 500 to 549 (paper-based test) or173 to 212 (computer-based test)may be conditionally admitted.Conditional admission based onEnglish language proficiency maynot be granted to students seekingadmission to only a graduatecertificate program.

3) Provisionally Admitted GraduateStudents. Students who have metall of the university standards forformal admission but whoseacademic program or major depart-ment may have placed additionalrestrictions upon their admissionmay be provisionally admitted.These restrictions may includecertain prerequisite courses thatmust be completed, completion ofthe GRE or GMAT, submission ofadditional reference letters or scores,etc. Provisionally admitted studentscannot take the final exam for theirdegree until they have satisfied theirprovisions and have been reclassi-fied as regular graduate students.Credit for graduate courses studentshave completed acceptably whileregistered as conditional or provi-sional students may count towardthe residence requirement foradvanced degrees. If students fail to satisfactorilycomplete these conditions orprovisions, they will be dismissedfrom the Graduate School.

GRADUATECERTIFICATE STUDENTSStudents admitted to only a graduatecertificate program may be consideredfor reclassification as degree-seekinggraduate students by following theprocedure in the section below regardingreclassification.

NONDEGREE-SEEKINGGRADUATE STUDENTSThe nondegree-seeking graduate studentcategory may be used by holders of abaccalaureate degree who do not wish topursue an advanced degree at OregonState University. Those nondegree-seeking graduate students who wish tobe reclassified as degree-seeking graduatestudents must follow the procedure inthe next section.

RECLASSIFICATION OF POST-BACCALAUREATE STUDENTS,NONDEGREE-SEEKINGSTUDENTS, AND GRADUATECERTIFICATE STUDENTSA post-baccalaureate, nondegree-seekinggraduate, or graduate certificate studentmay be considered for status as a regulardegree-seeking graduate student underone of the following provisions,depending upon prior academic records:1) If the student would have been

eligible for graduate admission atthe time of entering as a post-baccalaureate, nondegree-seekinggraduate, or graduate certificatestudent, the student is eligible foradmission consideration at anytime.

2) If the student, prior to entering as apost-baccalaureate, nondegree-seeking graduate, or graduatecertificate student had been deniedgraduate admission or would havebeen ineligible for graduate admis-sion, as determined a posteriori bythe University Graduate AdmissionsCommittee, the post-baccalaureate,nondegree-seeking graduate, orgraduate certificate student must:a. complete 24 credits of courses

each with a grade of B (3.00) orbetter, or

b. complete sufficient credits tobring the cumulative grade pointaverage (that for the last 90credits of undergraduate workplus that for courses taken as partof the 24-hour rule) to 3.00 orbetter before being eligible toapply for graduate admission.

These courses will normally be regulargraduate courses relevant to the specificfield, except that seminars and otherblanket number graduate courses maynot be used. Upper-division undergradu-ate courses are acceptable, provided thatthey eliminate specific deficiencies inrequirements for entry into an identifiedgraduate program. Lower-divisionundergraduate courses may not be used.All courses should be carefully selectedin consultation with an academic adviserfrom the graduate field into which thestudent desires admission.

Completion of either 2(a) or 2(b)above does not guarantee graduateadmission. Reclassification decisionsemploy the same procedures andrequirements as those for admission.Post-baccalaureate, nondegree-seekinggraduate, and graduate certificatestudents who seek reclassification mustbe acceptable to the department inwhich they plan to major. The universitydoes not have the capacity to accommo-date all who meet the minimumrequirements for regular graduatestudent status; when selecting among

students who meet minimum require-ments, the university treats studentsrequesting reclassification the same asthose applying for admission as regulargraduate students.

A post-baccalaureate or nondegree-seeking graduate student may usegraduate credit earned in this statustoward an advanced degree or graduatecertificate if the student is later reclassi-fied as a regular graduate student. Thiscredit cannot be used to satisfy residencerequirements for an advanced degree. Agraduate certificate student may usegraduate credit earned in this statustoward an advanced degree if thestudent is later reclassified as a regulargraduate student. In either case, theamount of usable credit will depend onthe size of the individual student’sprogram (e.g., a maximum of15 graduate credits could be used on a45-credit master’s program or a maxi-mum of 6 graduate credits may beapplied towards an 18-credit graduatecertificate.) See section entitled “TransferCredit” for complete details.

Students should initiate all requestsfor reclassification at the Office ofAdmissions.

SECOND OSU MASTER’S DEGREEA candidate for a second master’s degreefrom Oregon State University mayrequest the application of up to 15 credits,appropriate to both programs, from thefirst master’s degree program to another,subject to the following three require-ments:1. First, credits used to satisfy the

residency requirements of onemaster’s degree may not be used tosatisfy the residency requirements ofanother master’s degree.

2. Second, students who earn twomaster’s degrees at Oregon StateUniversity must complete all degreerequirements for each degree. Thisrequires filing separate programs ofstudy forms for each degree, filingseparate commencement applica-tions for each degree, completingseparate projects or theses for eachdegree, filing separate “Request forFinal Oral Examination” forms foreach degree, and passing final oralexaminations for each degree.

3. Third, such credit will be grantedonly for graded course work earnedat Oregon State University andcompleted with a grade of “B” orhigher.

PURSUIT OF THE SECOND PHDThe doctor of philosophy degree is thehighest academic degree granted byNorth American universities. It is aresearch degree designed to prepare astudent to become a scholar; that is, to

Graduate School 431

discover, integrate, and apply knowl-edge, as well as communicate anddisseminate it. The doctor of philosophydegree is to be distinguished from otherdoctorates such as the MD, JD, or EdDdegrees, which are designed for profes-sional training or which focus onapplied rather then basic research. As isthe common practice of most NorthAmerican universities, Oregon StateUniversity seldom approves requests forpursuit of the second PhD.

The graduate dean will determinewhether or not a student may beadmitted for the second PhD. The deanmay seek the advice of the GraduateCouncil in the deliberation of these cases.

RE-ENROLLMENTContinuous graduate enrollment isrequired for all credential-seekinggraduate students admitted for the firsttime, readmitted, or who changed into adifferent degree program in Fall 2002 orlater. Effective Fall 2004, all credential-seeking graduate students will be subjectto the continuous enrollment policy.Continuous graduate enrollment refersto the policy of requiring continuousregistration of graduate students fromoriginal matriculation until all graduatedegree or certificate requirements aremet. Please refer to Continuous Enroll-ment, for complete details.

A graduate student who takes anunauthorized break in registration byfailing to maintain continuous enroll-ment or by failing to obtain Regular orPlanned Leave of Absence will relinquishhis/her graduate standing in theuniversity. Students who wish to havetheir graduate standing reinstated will berequired to file an Application forGraduate Readmission, pay the readmis-sion fee, and register for 3 graduatecredits for each term of unauthorizedbreak in registration.

GRADUATE TUITIONAND FEE SCHEDULEPlease see the Fees and ResidencyRequirements section of this catalog.

RESIDENT-NONRESIDENTSTATUSIn most instances, a student who hasmoved to Oregon primarily to attendschool will be considered a nonresidentfor tuition purposes. To be classified as aresident, a person must basically befinancially independent of his or herout-of-state parents or legal guardians,reside in Oregon for 12 consecutivemonths, and be primarily engaged inactivities other than those of being astudent.

If a student is dependent on his or herparents or legal custodian/guardian, andthe parents or legal custodian/guardian

move to Oregon, they (the parents/guardians) must meet the Oregonresident requirements before thedependent student can be considered forOregon resident classification.

International students are not eligibleto seek residency for tuition payingpurposes, unless they have been grantedpermanent resident or immigrant statusand have been in the state 12 monthsafter the permanent resident status wasapproved and be primarily engaged inactivities other than those of being astudent. The above requirements thenapply.

Note: During summer sessionresidents and nonresidents pay the sametuition and fees.

POLICIES GOVERNING ALLGRADUATE PROGRAMS

GRADUATE MAJORA graduate major is the area of academicspecialization, approved by the StateBoard of Higher Education, in which thestudent chooses to qualify for a graduatedegree. Upon completion of a graduatedegree, the degree awarded and thegraduate major are listed on thestudent’s transcript.

GRADUATE AREA OFCONCENTRATIONA graduate area of concentration is asubdivision of a major or minor inwhich a strong graduate program isavailable. Areas of concentration may beshown on the student’s program ofstudy, but they are not listed on thestudent’s transcript.

GRADUATE MINORA graduate minor is an academic areathat clearly supports the major. On amaster’s or doctoral program, a minormay be:1. an academic area available only as a

minor,2. a different major,3. the same major with a different area

of concentration,4. an approved major at another

institution in the Oregon UniversitySystem, or

5. an integrated minor.An integrated minor consists of a seriesof cognate courses from two or moreareas. These courses must be outside themajor area of concentration, with mostof the courses being outside the majordepartment. The graduate facultymember representing the integrated


minor must be from outside the majordepartment. Graduate minors are listedon the student’s transcript.

DUAL MAJORSFor the MA, MS, EdM, MF, or PhDdegree, a student may select twograduate major areas to pursue insteadof the traditional single major. Only onedegree is awarded, and the studentbasically must satisfy all degree require-ments for majors in both areas. For moredetails, contact the Graduate School.

GRADUATE CERTIFICATEA graduate certificate program is astructured progression of graduate-levelcourses that constitute a coherent bodyof study with a specific defined focuswithin a single discipline or a logicalcombination of disciplines. It is designedfor a student who has completed abaccalaureate degree and is in pursuit ofadvanced-level learning. Graduatecertificates reflect the educationalmission of the university.

RESERVING CREDITSUndergraduate and post-baccalaureatestudents at OSU may receive credit forgraduate courses (500 and 600 level) inexcess of the requirements for abaccalaureate degree. They may reservecredits for possible use in a graduatecertificate or graduate degree programunder the following conditions:a. Request for reservation must be

made prior to the end of the term inwhich the student completesbaccalaureate requirements.

b. Only credits with grades of “B”(3.00) or better may be reserved forgraduate credit.

c. Credits with grades of “P” or “S”cannot be reserved.

d. A maximum of 15 credits may bereserved for graduate credit.

e. Baccalaureate degree holders whoare admitted to a post-baccalaureatestatus may reserve not more than 6graduate credits per term to apply ina graduate program.

f. Not more than 15 graduate creditsreserved in combination as anundergraduate and post-baccalaure-ate can be used in a graduate degreeprogram.

A student must earn a minimum of30 graduate credits toward the master’sdegree after admission as a degree-seeking graduate student, regardless ofthe number of credits reserved.

TRANSFER CREDITStudents who wish to transfer graduatecredits from other schools must providetranscripts for courses already completedto the Graduate School prior to thesubmission of a study program. If a

student undertakes a transfer courseafter his or her study program has beenapproved, the student must provide theGraduate School with a transcript of thiscourse prior to the final examination.The Graduate School does not assumeresponsibility for obtaining transcriptsfrom other institutions.

Courses to be transferred must begraduate level, taken after the comple-tion of a four-year baccalaureate degree(or equivalent), with grades of “B” (3.00)or better. Courses delivered off-campusor by electronic means must satisfy theOSU guidelines for the electronicdelivery of courses. It is the responsibil-ity of the student wishing to transfer thecourse to provide the necessary docu-mentation to satisfy the OSU guidelines.Traditional extension and correspon-dence courses with no live or real-timeinteraction with the instructor are nottransferrable.

Graduate courses may be transferred if:1. the work is appropriate to and will

be placed on the student’s graduatecertificate or degree program;

2. the transfer is approved by thestudent’s committee (for degree-seeking students), by the majordepartment, and by the GraduateSchool; and

3. grades of “B” (3.00) or better havebeen earned.

If the transfer credit is from a foreignuniversity, the student must providecopies of the original transcript and anEnglish translation of the transcript,with the courses to be transferred clearlyindicated. Grades and credits for thecourses must be clearly identified. Insome countries, the first universitydegree, which OSU considers to beequivalent to a baccalaureate degree,may take five years or more to complete.All of the course work toward such adegree is considered a requirement for thefirst university degree, and hence none ofit can be transferred to a graduatecertificate or graduate degree at OSU.

Students may not transfer coursesgraded on a nonstandard basis (e.g.,Pass/No Pass, Credit/No Credit, Satisfac-tory/Unsatisfactory) to their graduatecertificate or degree programs unless itcan be verified from the registrar of theuniversity offering the course that thegrade is equivalent to a “B” (3.00) orbetter.

Graduate courses to be transferred to anOSU master’s degree must not have beenused to satisfy the requirements for amaster’s degree (or equivalent) or adoctoral degree from another institution.

Graduate courses to be transferredfrom an OSU master’s degree to a secondOSU master’s degree must meet thefollowing three requirements:

1. Credits used to satisfy the residencyrequirements of one master’s degreemay not be used to satisfy theresidency requirements of anothermaster’s degree.

2. Students who earn two master’sdegrees at Oregon State Universitymust complete all degree require-ments for each degree. This requiresfiling separate programs of studyforms for each degree, filingseparate commencement applica-tions for each degree, completingseparate projects or theses for eachdegree, scheduling separate finaloral examinations for each degree,and passing final oral examinationsfor each degree.

3. Such credit will be granted only forgraded course work earned atOregon State University andcompleted with a grade of “B” orhigher.

Up to 15 graduate credits may betransferred toward a 45-credit master’sdegree. Up to 6 graduate credits may betransferred toward a 18-credit graduatecertificate.

Graduate courses to be transferred to adoctoral degree program can be courseswhich were used to satisfy the graduatecourse requirements for a graduatecertificate or a master’s degree (orequivalent). There is no limit on transfercredit toward the doctoral degree as longas the doctoral residence requirement issatisfied.

Credits earned in fulfillment of agraduate certificate program may beapplied to a graduate degree, so long asthey meet the appropriate standards foruse in the degree and the criteria totransfer credit as defined herein. Coursescompleted for a degree program maylikewise be applied toward a certificateprogram.

Graduate courses taken at OSU whilethe student was a graduate nondegree-seeking student or a post-baccalaureatestudent, and courses reserved forgraduate credit while the student was anundergraduate or post-baccalaureatestudent are considered transfer courses.

PREPARATION REQUIRED FORGRADUATE MAJORPreparation for a graduate major isordinarily an undergraduate major inthe same subject, or a fair equivalent.Preparation for a graduate minor isordinarily at least one year of upper-division work in addition to foundationcourses in the subject.

Academic performance is not the solecriterion for admission to and continua-tion in certain courses and programs atthe university, such as practicum coursesand internships. The university may findit necessary to evaluate a person’s

Graduate School 433

background to determine his or herlikelihood of maintaining standards ofprofessional conduct necessary in theacademic discipline or profession. Anevaluation may consider currentperformance as well as past experiencesand actions that could affect a student’sability to perform in the particularcourse or program.

Qualifying Examinations. Somedepartments require graduate studentsworking for advanced degrees to takeoral and/or written examinations intheir major and minor fields to deter-mine overall preparation and back-ground. The examination serves as aguidance examination, the results ofwhich are used in setting up thegraduate study program. Poor showingin any area may result in a student’staking undergraduate courses withoutgraduate credit to gain the necessarybackground to proceed with thegraduate program. The examinationusually is taken during the first quarterof graduate enrollment.In lieu of their own qualifying examina-tion, departments may accept a satisfac-tory showing in the Graduate RecordExamination (GRE), Graduate Manage-ment Aptitude Test (GMAT), or someother standard test. Check with theanticipated major department to findout which exams are appropriate.

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTSIntroductionFull-time status as a graduate student isdefined by the Oregon UniversitySystem as enrollment in 9 credits perterm. The maximum load for a full-timegraduate student is 16 credits. A studentmay exceed this limit only with theapproval of the Graduate School.Students receiving approval to exceed16 credits will be assessed a per-creditoverload fee.

Full-time status (i.e., a minimum of9 credits per term) may be sufficient toqualify for purposes of veterans’benefits, visa requirements, externalfellowships, and financial aid.

To assure full compliance with visaregulations, international students shouldconsult with the Office of InternationalEducation for additional informationabout registration requirements.Continuous EnrollmentI. Minimum RegistrationUnless on approved Leave of Absence(see Section II), all graduate students ingraduate degree and certificate programsmust register continuously for aminimum of 3 graduate credits, exclud-ing summer session, until their degree orcertificate is granted or until their statusas a credential-seeking graduate studentis terminated. This includes students

who are taking only preliminarycomprehensive or final examinations orpresenting terminal projects. Studentsmust register for a minimum of 3 creditsand pay fees if they will be usinguniversity resources (e.g. facilities,equipment, computing and libraryservices, or faculty or staff time) duringany given term, regardless of thestudent’s location. If degree require-ments are completed between terms, thestudent must have been registeredduring the preceding term.

Graduate students who have success-fully completed all course andnoncourse requirements in accordancewith diploma deadlines (see theGraduate School web site) are notrequired to register during the subse-quent term.

Non-thesis master’s degree studentswho complete all degree requirementsduring a term for which they areregistered will not be required to registerfor the subsequent term.

Doctoral and thesis master’s studentswho fail to meet all deadlines andcomplete all course and noncourserequirements during the term will berequired to register for a minimum ofthree graduate credits during thesubsequent term. However, only iflibrary copies of the thesis have beensubmitted to the Graduate School withinthe first two weeks of the subsequentterm and the thesis is the only outstand-ing requirement remaining for certifica-tion of the student’s graduate degreemay an exception to this rule beconsidered.

Graduate students who do not plan tomake use of university facilities orfaculty time during summer session arenot required to register during thesummer session and do not need tosubmit an Intent to Resume GraduateStatus form. In such instances, summersession will not be counted withinallowed Leave of Absence limits (seesection II.C.). However, if students doplan to utilize facilities or faculty timeduring summer session, they mustregister for a minimum of 3 graduatecredits.

It should be noted that graduateassistantship eligibility requires enroll-ment levels that supercede thosecontained in this Continuous Enroll-ment Policy. Various agencies and officesmaintain their own registrationrequirements that also may exceed thosespecified by this Continuous EnrollmentPolicy (e.g., those of the VeteransAdministration, Immigration andNaturalization Service for internationalstudents, and those required for federalfinancial aid programs.) Therefore, it isthe student’s responsibility to registerfor the appropriate number of credits

that may be required for fundingeligibility and/or compliance as outlinedby specific agency regulations underwhich they are governed.II. Leave of AbsenceOn-leave status is available to studentswho need to suspend their program ofstudy for good cause. Students whodesire a leave of absence will work withtheir major professor, program adminis-trator, and the Graduate School toarrange authorized leave. Graduateprograms that are designed such that theoffering of courses and/or the conduct ofresearch/scholarly work are not on acontinuous term-to-term basis will workwith the Graduate School to arrangeplanned leave. Students understand thatwhile on leave they will not useuniversity resources. Graduate Facultymembers are students’ most importantresource at the university and will workclosely with graduate students to ensuretimely completion of academic goals,understanding of the ContinuousGraduate Enrollment Policy, and thatgraduate students enroll each term otherthan when they are on authorized leave.The Graduate School will assist graduatestudents and Graduate Faculty memberswith administrative procedures relatedto the Continuous Graduate EnrollmentPolicy. The Graduate School recognizesthe diverse circumstances andunpredictability of graduate students’lives and will work in partnership withthe graduate community in arrangingleaves and responding to unanticipatedsituations.

A graduate student intending toresume active graduate student statusfollowing interruption of his or herstudy program for one or more terms,excluding summer session, must applyfor Regular or Planned Leave of Absenceto maintain graduate student standingin his or her degree program and toavoid registration for 3 graduate creditsfor each term of unauthorized break inregistration (See Section IV below).Intent to Resume Graduate Status Formsmust be received by the Graduate Schoolat least 15 working days prior to the firstday of the term involved. The time thestudent spends in approved on-leavestatus will be included in any time limitsrelevant to the degree (See Sections C.1.and C.2. below). Students in on-leavestatus may not a) use any universityfacilities, b) make demands upon facultytime, c) receive a fellowship or financialaid, or d) take course work of any kind atOregon State University.

A. EligibilityOnly graduate students in goodstanding are eligible for Leave ofAbsence.


B. Leave of Absence Categories1. Regular. Regular Leave of Absence

is granted in cases where thestudent demonstrates good cause(e.g. illness, temporary departurefrom the university for employ-ment, family issues, financialneed, personal circumstances).The student must indicate reasonfor on-leave status.

2. Planned. Planned Leave ofAbsence is granted to students forwhom the design of their aca-demic program is such that theoffering of courses and/or theconduct of research/scholarlywork are not on a continuousterm-to-term basis. Planned Leaveof Absence is set by the programwith the approval of the GraduateSchool. (For a current list ofPlanned Leaves, consult theGraduate School at 737-4881.)Planned Leave of Absenceincludes students enrolled insummer-only programs andgraduate students in otherprograms that have been pre-approved by the Graduate Schoolfor Planned Leave of Absence.Summer-only students and otherstudents who qualify for PlannedLeave of Absence must:

a. be in good standing,b. submit the Intent to Resume

Graduate Status Formindicating each term forwhich leave is requested, and

c. complete all degree require-ments within the time limitsestablished in the GraduateCatalog. Requests for multipleterms of Leave may besubmitted at one time.

C. Limits1. Regular Leave of Absence is

granted for a specified time periodthat may not exceed three terms,excluding summer session. In nocase may regular on-leave statusexceed the maximum listed belowthroughout the student’s entiredegree program.

a. Master’s degree. Master’sdegree students, except forsummer-only students, mayrequest a maximum of threeacademic terms of regular on-leave status during the courseof study for the degree. Thetime spent in approved on-leave status will be includedin the seven-year time limitfor completing all require-ments to the master’s degree.

b. Doctoral degree. Doctoraldegree students may applyfor a maximum of three

academic terms of regular on-leave status prior to advance-ment to candidacy, and theymay apply for a maximum ofthree academic terms of on-leave status after advance-ment to candidacy. The timespent in approved on-leavestatus will be included in themaximum five years that mayelapse between the prelimi-nary oral examination andthe final oral examination.

2. Planned Leave of Absence isavailable for a maximum of nineterms, excluding summer session,to students enrolled in programsfor which Planned Leave has beenapproved by the Graduate School.However, time spent in plannedon-leave status will be included inall time limits pertaining to thestudent’s degree program.

D. ApprovalApproval of the major professor,department/program chair, andgraduate dean are required.

III. Student FeesStudents with approved on-leave statusare not required to pay tuition or fees.However, students who must register asper section I, “Minimum Registration,”must pay both tuition and student fees.IV. Unauthorized Break inRegistrationA graduate student who takes anunauthorized break in registration byfailing to maintain continuous enroll-ment or by failing to obtain Regular orPlanned Leave of Absence will relinquishhis or her graduate standing in theuniversity. Students who wish to havetheir graduate standing reinstated will berequired to file an Application forGraduate Readmission, pay the readmis-sion fee, and register for 3 graduatecredits for each term of unauthorizedbreak in registration. The readmissionapplication must be approved by thestudent’s major professor, department/program chair, and graduate dean.Acceptance back into a graduateprogram is not guaranteed even if thestudent departed in good standing. Thepetitioner for readmission will berequired to meet university and depart-mental admission requirements anddegree completion requirements that arein effect on the date of readmission.Review of the Application for GraduateReadmission may also result in a changeof residency status from resident tononresident.

When readmission is approved, thestudent must register for a minimum of3 graduate credits for each term ofunauthorized break in registration inaddition to the minimum 3 creditregistration required during the first

term of reinstatement and each subse-quent term until all degree requirementshave been met except for any subse-quent term of approved leave asprovided in Section II of this policy. Ifthe accumulated credits total more than16, the student may be required toenroll in more than one term ofincreased registration.V. AppealIn the case of extraordinarily extenuat-ing circumstances, students may appealthe provisions of the ContinuousGraduate Enrollment Policy by submit-ting a detailed request in writing to thedean of the Graduate School foradditional terms of Leave of Absence orforgiveness of additional credits ofregistration.

IMPLEMENTATION OFCONTINUOUS ENROLLMENTPOLICYRegistration requirements are includedin the preceding section on continuousenrollment. The continuous enrollmentpolicy became effective Fall 2002 for allgraduate students admitted for the firsttime in Fall 2002 or later; all graduatestudents who were readmited to theuniversity Fall 2002 or later; and allgraduate students who changed into adifferent degree program (e.g., frommaster’s to doctorate, or from one degreeto another) Fall 2002 or afterwards. Inaddition, all graduate students, includingthose enrolled prior to Fall 2002 willbecome subject to this policy no later thanFall 2004, regardless of their originalmatriculation date.

Continuing students who are notgoverned by the Continuous GraduateEnrollment Policy as delineated in thepreceding paragraph should be enrolledfor a reasonable number of creditssufficient to represent their use ofuniversity space, facilities or facultytime. A student pursuing an advanceddegree must register for a minimum ofthree credits during terms in which theyundertake doctoral or MAIS programmeetings, departmental written exami-nations, or oral preliminary examina-tions. Registration solely for the purposeof taking the final exam for the master’sor doctoral degree is not required ofcontinuing students who are notgoverned by Continuous Enrollmentuntil Fall 2004 when all graduatestudents will become subject to thispolicy regardless of their originalmatriculation date.

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTSFOR GRADUATE ASSISTANTSIn addition to the above registrationrequirements, the following require-ments apply to graduate teachingassistants (GTA) and graduate researchassistants (GRA).

Graduate School 435

As a condition of their academicappointments, graduate teaching andresearch assistants are required toregister for three credits above theminimum full-time load (i.e., a mini-mum of 12 credits) each term of theappointment during the academic year(fall, winter, and spring.) Duringsummer session, a minimum registrationof 9 credits is required for graduateassistants. Audit registrations andenrollment in OSU Extended Campus andother self-support programs may not be usedto satisfy enrollment requirements forgraduate assistant salary/stipend, tuitionremission or health and wellness benefits.

Maximum registration for graduateteaching and research assistants isdetermined by the assistant’s appoint-ment level, otherwise known as FTE (fulltime equivalency). Assistants whoseappointments range between .20 and.29 FTE may register for a maximum of15 credits per term. Those whoseappointments range between .30 and.49 FTE may register for no more the12 credits per term. Requests to exceedthese maxima may be submitted to theGraduate School.

GRADE REQUIREMENTA grade-point average of 3.00 (a “B”average) is required: 1) for all coursestaken as a degree-seeking graduatestudent, and 2) for courses included inthe graduate degree or graduate certifi-cate program of study. Grades below“C” (2.00) can not be used on a graduateprogram of study. A grade-point averageof 3.00 is required before the final oralor written exam may be undertaken.

COURSE NUMBERS• Graduate CoursesAll graduate courses will be designedaround well-defined objectives orstudent learning outcomes, andinstructional opportunities should bedesigned to help students achieve theseoutcomes. Student learning outcomesencompass the range of studentattributes and abilities that studentsshould be able to demonstrate aftersuccessful completion of the course.500-Level CoursesThese courses are graduate coursesoffered primarily in support of graduatecertificate or master’s degree programsbut which are also available for use ondoctoral level degree programs.Undergraduates of superior scholasticachievement may be admitted to thesecourses on the approval of the instruc-tor, and they may apply to reserve thesecourses for later use on a graduatecertificate or a graduate degree program.These courses have one or more of thefollowing characteristics:

1. They require upper-divisionprerequisites in the discipline.

2. They require an extensive theoreti-cal base in the discipline.

3. They increase or re-examine theexisting knowledge or database ofthe discipline.

4. They present core components orimportant peripheral components ofthe discipline at an advanced level.

600-Level CoursesThese are graduate courses offeredprincipally in support of doctoral levelinstructional programs but also areavailable for use on graduate certificateor master’s level degree programs. Inaddition to exhibiting the characteristicsof 500-level courses, these coursestypically require 500-level prerequisitesand they build on and increase theinformation presented in 500-levelcourses.

• OTHER COURSES700-Level CoursesThese are advanced professional ortechnical courses that may be appliedtoward a first professional degree(e.g. DVM, PharmD). They make up thebulk of the course work for theseprofessional degree programs. Thesecourses are not considered graduate-levelcourses, however, and may not beapplied toward graduate certificate,master’s level or doctoral level (PhD orEdD) degree programs.800-Level CoursesThese courses are in-service coursesaimed at practicing professionals in thediscipline. These courses have an in-service or retraining focus, and providethe professionals new ways to examineexisting situations or new tools to treatexisting problems. These coursesgenerally have none of the characteris-tics of 500-level courses. They are notgraduate-level courses, and they may notbe applied to graduate certificate orgraduate degree programs nor toprofessional degree programs.

4XX/5XX COURSESCourses bearing dual-listed numbers(400–500) must provide students whoare enrolled for 500-level credit withgraduate level learning.

Expectations for learning outcomes inthe graduate component of dual listed(400/500 level) courses are the same asfor stand-alone 500-level courses. Adistinction should be made betweenlearning outcomes for students takingthe course for undergraduate credit(400 level) and those taking the coursefor graduate credit (500 level). In mostcases this distinction should includeemphasis on developing skills inanalysis, synthesis, and/or evaluation for

the 500-level credit. The differentstudent learning outcomes should beaccompanied by appropriate differencesin instructional opportunities andevaluation procedures.

REPEATING 4XX/5XX COURSESA graduate student who has taken a 4xxcourse may not normally include thecorresponding 5xx course on his or hergraduate program.Blanket-Numbered CoursesBlanket-numbered courses have a zeromiddle digit. Those that carry graduatecredit may be repeated up to themaximum totals indicated below.Research (501 or 601) is for researchthat is not part of the thesis. Dataobtained from such research should notbe incorporated into the thesis.Thesis (503 or 603) covers the thesisresearch and writing. A student mayregister for thesis credit each term.Reading and Conference (505 or 605)and Projects (506 or 606) are used forspecial work not given under a formalcourse number.Seminar (507 or 607) is used both fordepartmental seminars and for specialgroup work not given in a formal course.Workshop (508 or 608) is usually aspecial, short-term course covering avariety of topics.Practicum (509) is used for courses whoseemphasis is the application of academictheory to the work environment.• No more than 6 credits of blanket-

numbered courses, other than thesis(or research-in-lieu-of-thesis fornonthesis programs), may beapplied toward the minimum45-credit master’s degree. Whileinternship credit (510) is notconsidered a blanket-numberedcourse, no more than 6 credits ofinternship may be applied toward a45-credit master’s degree. This limitis in addition to the 6-creditblanket-hour limit.

• No more than 15 blanket-numberedcredits may be applied toward theminimum 108-credit doctoralprogram.

• No more than 3 credits of blanket-numbered courses in each field ofstudy may be used in the MAISprogram; thesis credits or researchpaper credits are exempt from thislimitation. Blanket-numberedtransfer courses will count towardthese totals.

COURSES GRADED ONNON-STANDARD BASISGraduate students may elect to takecourses on an S/U basis only if thosecourses are not in their graduatecertificate or graduate degree program or


are not required for the removal ofdeficiencies. Graduate students may usecourses taken at OSU on a P/N basis intheir graduate certificate or graduatedegree programs.

MEETING AND EXAMSCHEDULESProgram meetings, preliminary examina-tions, and final examinations may beheld during any period when school isin session. This excludes the periodsbetween the regularly scheduled quartersand during official vacation periods.Students must be registered for aminimum of three graduate creditsduring terms in which they undertakeMAIS or doctoral program meetings,departmental written examinations, ororal preliminary examinations.

Students subject to continuousenrollment must register for a minimumof three graduate credits during the termin which they take their final oral orwritten examinations. Effective Fall2004, all students, including thosepreviously grandfathered under theContinuous Enrollment Policy, mustregister for a minimum of three graduatecredits during the term in which they taketheir final oral or written examination.

REMOTE ACCESS FORGRADUATE COMMITTEEMEETINGSIt is generally expected that all membersof graduate committees should bephysically present at all requiredgraduate committee meetings(i.e., program meetings, preliminaryexaminations, and final examinations.)However, it is permissible for onemember to participate from a remotelocation under certain circumstances.Appeals for exceptions to this policymay be addressed to the dean of theGraduate School. Contact the GraduateSchool for complete details.

PETITIONSA student wishing to deviate fromnormal Graduate School regulations andprocedures may submit a request andthe reasons for it to the Graduate Schoolin a letter signed by the student and hisor her major professor. In reaching adecision, the Graduate School may seekadvice from the Graduate Council. Thestudent will be advised of the decisionwhen it has been made. Action taken ona petition will not be consideredprecedent for future action.

DIPLOMA APPLICATIONGraduate students wishing a printeddiploma must complete an applicationsupplied by the Graduate School. Thisform should be submitted to theGraduate School prior to taking the final

examination, indicating the term thestudent intends to graduate.

INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARDAPPROVAL OF HUMANSUBJECTS RESEARCHIt is Oregon State University policy thatthe OSU Institutional Review Board(IRB) must review all research thatinvolves human subjects. The resultsfrom studies conducted withoutobtaining IRB review and approval maynot be published or widely distributed,nor can such data be used to satisfyhonors thesis, master’s thesis or doctoraldissertation requirements.

The requirements for IRB review ofresearch involving human subjects isbased upon research ethics and federallaw, and the implications of conductinghuman subjects research without IRBapproval are significant. Failure tofollow this policy places both theindividual and the institution at risk: theindividual may be subject to universitysanctions and/or incur personal liabilityfor negligence and harm; the universitycould lose access to federal funding or beforced to cease all human subjectsresearch. For complete details, pleaserefer to the OSU Human SubjectsHandbook on the web at http://oregonstate.edu/research/RegulatoryCompliance/HumanSubjects.html.

GRADUATE WORK BY FACULTYMEMBERSIt is the policy of the Oregon UniversitySystem (OUS) that OUS faculty rank maynot be held by an OUS graduate student.That is, one may not simultaneously bean OUS faculty member and an OUSgraduate student. This is codified in theOregon Administrative Rules (OAR 580-20-005) which identify faculty rank asincluding: instructor; senior instructor;research assistant; research associate;lecturer; assistant professor; associateprofessor; and professor. The policy isconsistent with practices at mostuniversities, and is in keeping withrecognized appropriate graduateeducation practice.

Although faculty members are eligibleto enroll for courses at staff fee rates,such course work may not be applied toa graduate certificate or graduate degreewithout prior approval from theGraduate Dean.

GRADUATE STUDENT TEACHINGStudents working toward graduatecertificates or advanced degrees are notpermitted to teach graduate courses.

GRADUATE APPOINTMENTSSome graduate assistants may berepresented by the Coalition of GraduateEmployees, American Federation of

Teachers Local 6069. For these graduateassistants, terms and conditions ofemployment for service not performedas a requirement for their degrees areprescribed in the Collective BargainingAgreement between OSU, OUS, and theCoalition of Graduate Employees,American Federation of Teachers Local6069. Graduate teaching and researchassistantships are awarded by depart-ments to graduate students withsuperior records in their undergraduateand/or graduate work. To qualify forappointment as a graduate assistant thestudent must:1. Be a regularly admitted, condition-

ally admitted, or provisionallyadmitted graduate student atOregon State University (i.e., not agraduate nondegree-seeking, post-baccalaureate student).

2. Be enrolled as a full-time degree-seeking graduate student at OregonState University, completing aminimum of 12 credits of instruc-tion each term (9 credits duringsummer session). Audit registrationsand enrollment in OSU ExtendedCampus may not be used to satisfythese minimum enrollmentrequirements.

3. Be making satisfactory progresstoward an advanced degree.

Graduate assistants may be appointed onan academic term basis, an academic-year basis (nine months) or a full-yearbasis (12 months). Appointments arenormally .20 FTE to .30 FTE for those ona nine-month basis and .20 FTE to.49 FTE for those on a 12-month basis.No appointment can be for less than.20 FTE or more than .49 FTE per term.A graduate assistant on less than .49 FTEmay take on extra duties; however, thetotal stipend plus salary from theOregon University System shall notexceed the equivalent of .49 FTE forany term.

All graduate assistants are required toprovide duties to OSU to justify theirstipends. Teaching assistants areexpected to provide duties related to theuniversity’s instructional program(e.g., teaching laboratories or discussionsections, grading papers, advising).Research assistants provide duties relatedto the research function of the univer-sity. Whatever the type of appointment,the graduate assistant should beregarded as a student providing serviceas part of a learning experience ratherthan as an employee whose education issecondary.

Graduate teaching assistants on.30 FTE appointments are expected toperform 156 hours of duties during the13-week term. Teaching assistants atother FTE levels are expected to provideproportional levels of duties. The

Graduate School 437

sponsoring department will determine ifthe duties of a specific graduate teachingassistant are related to degree require-ments or if the duties are primarily aservice to the institution.

Graduate research assistants on.49 FTE appointments are expected toperform 255 hours of duties during the13-week term. Since research assistantsordinarily use research under theirappointment as part of a thesis, theresponsibility for determining work forwhich they are paid salary and work fortheir thesis rests with the sponsoringdepartment. Graduate research assistantsat other FTE levels are expected toprovide proportional levels of service.

The work schedule and the duties tobe performed by the graduate assistantshall be established by the departmentsponsoring the assistantship.

Graduate assistants must register forand complete a minimum of 12 creditsof instruction each term except duringsummer session, when a minimum of9 credits is required. Audit registrationsand enrollment in OSU ExtendedCampus may not be used to satisfy theseminimum enrollment requirements.Assistants on .20 to .29 FTE may registerfor a maximum of 15 credits, and thoseon .30 to .49 FTE a maximum of12 credits per term. (See section on‘Registration Requirements for GraduateAssistants’ for complete details.)

Persons interested in assistantshipsshould write directly to the departmentconcerned.

DISMISSAL FROMGRADUATE SCHOOLAdvanced-degree students (regular,conditionally, and provisionallyadmitted) are expected to make satisfac-tory progress toward a specific academicdegree. This includes maintaining a GPAof 3.00 or better for all courses taken as agraduate student and for coursesincluded in the graduate program,meeting departmental requirements, andparticipating in a creative activity suchas a thesis.

If a student is failing to make satisfac-tory progress toward an academicdegree, as determined by the majordepartment or the Graduate School, thestudent may be dismissed from theGraduate School.

Any doctoral student who fails thepreliminary oral examination with acommittee recommendation that thestudent’s work toward this degree beterminated may be dismissed from theGraduate School.

Any student who fails a final oralexamination may be dismissed from theGraduate School.

Academic dishonesty and otherviolations of the Student Conduct

Regulations may serve as grounds fordismissal from the Graduate School.

STUDENT CONDUCTREGULATIONSGraduate students enrolled at OregonState University are expected to conformto basic regulations and policiesdeveloped to govern the behavior ofstudents as members of the universitycommunity. The regulations have beenformulated by the Student ConductCommittee, the Student ActivitiesCommittee, the university administra-tion, and the State Board of HigherEducation. Violations of the regulationssubject a student to appropriatedisciplinary or judicial action. Theregulations and the procedures fordisciplinary action and appeal areavailable via the OSU Web site andoutlined in detail in the electronic OSUSchedule of Classes published everyacademic year.

GRIEVANCE PROCEDUREAll students desiring to appeal mattersrelating to their graduate educationshould request a copy of GrievanceProcedures for Graduate Students atOregon State University from theGraduate School. These procedures arealso available on the Web at http://oregonstate.edu/Dept/grad_school/.Graduate assistants who are notrepresented by the Coalition of GraduateEmployees, American Federation ofTeachers Local 6069 who wish to appealterms and conditions of their employ-ment should also refer to these proce-dures. Graduate assistants whose termsand conditions of employment areprescribed by the Collective BargainingAgreement between OSU, OUS, and theCoalition of Graduate Employees,American Federation of Teachers Local6069 should also refer to that document.

POLICIES GOVERNINGALL GRADUATECERTIFICATE PROGRAMS

GENERAL REQUIREMENTSThe Graduate Certificate Program atOregon State University is a structuredprogression of graduate-level courses thatconstitute a coherent body of study with adefined focus within a single discipline ora logical combination of disciplines. It isdesigned for a student who has completeda baccalaureate degree and is in pursuit ofadvanced-level learning. Graduatecertificates reflect the educational missionof the university. Students desiring agraduate certificate must be admitted tothe university as a credential-seekinggraduate student, but are not required tobe on track for a specific degree. There isno formal committee requirement for

graduate certificates. Certificate studentsare subject to all general policies govern-ing the courses for the master’s degree.

GRADUATE CERTIFICATESTUDY PROGRAMThe graduate certificate curriculumconsists of a minimum of 18 graduatecredits, and may include a final project,portfolio, or report for integration of thesequence of course materials. No finalexamination is required.

TIME LIMITSCourses completed no more than sevenyears prior to the graduate certificateaward may be used to satisfy certificaterequirements.

POLICIES GOVERNINGALL MASTER’S DEGREEPROGRAMS

GENERAL REQUIREMENTSAll master’s degree programs require aminimum of 45 graduate creditsincluding thesis (6 to 12 credits) orresearch-in-lieu-of-thesis (3 to 6 credits).Exceptions to this capstone requirementare specified under the degree descrip-tions that follow these universal master’sdegree requirements. General regula-tions for all master’s program are citedhere, with certain exceptions providedfor master’s degrees in the professionalareas listed on the following pages.

RESIDENCE REQUIREMENTSThe residence requirement for themaster’s degree is 30 graduate OregonState University credits after admissionas a degree-seeking graduate student.These 30 graduate credits must appearon the master’s degree program. (Thisdoes not include credits reserved as anundergraduate or post-baccalaureatestudent, credits taken as a post-baccalau-reate or graduate nondegree-seekingstudent, nor transfer courses.) Deviationfrom the residence requirement requiresa petition to the Graduate School.

LANGUAGE REQUIREMENTSFor the master of arts degree, the studentmust show foreign language proficiencyequivalent to that attained at the end ofa second-year university course in thatlanguage with a grade of “C” (2.00) orbetter. English is not considered aforeign language for purposes of thisrequirement. There is no languagerequirement for the Master of Arts inInterdisciplinary Studies degree. Forother master’s degrees, there is noforeign language requirement unless alanguage is required in the individualstudent’s program. The foreign languagerequirement for the MA degree must becompleted before the student takes thefinal oral examination for the degree.


GRADUATE STUDY PROGRAMA regular master’s degree student mustfile a study program with the GraduateSchool before completing 18 graduatecredits. This includes credits reserved asan undergraduate or post-baccalaureatestudent and credits earned as a post-baccalaureate, graduate nondegree-seeking student, or graduate student. Astudent who does not file a programwithin the specified deadline will not beallowed to register for the next term. Aregistration hold also may be placed onstudents whose programs of study arenot approved after initial evaluation bythe Graduate School and until appropri-ate action is taken to bring the programof study into compliance with GraduateCouncil policy.

If a minor is declared, approximatelytwo-thirds of the work (30 graduatecredits) should be listed in the majorfield and one-third (15 graduate credits)in the minor field. In such cases, thestudent’s advisory committee mustinclude a member from the minordepartment.

The program is developed under theguidance of the major professor, andminor professor when a minor isincluded, and signed by those professorsand the chair of the academic unitbefore filing in the Graduate School.Each candidate’s program should includesubstantial work with at least threefaculty members offering graduateinstruction. Changes in the programmay be made by submitting a Petitionfor Change Form, available in theGraduate School.

TIME LIMITAll work toward a master’s degree,including transferred credits, coursework, thesis (if required), and allexaminations, must be completedwithin seven years.

THESISWhen scheduling their final oralexaminations, thesis option master’sstudents are required to submit thepretext pages of their thesis to theGraduate School at least one week priorto the final oral examination. Pretextpages include the abstract, copyright(optional), title page, approval page,acknowledgment page, contribution ofauthors, table of contents, list of figures,tables, appendices, dedication (optional),and preface (optional). It is expected thatstudents will distribute examinationcopies to all their committee members,including the Graduate Council Represen-tative, sufficiently early to permitthorough review of the thesis prior to thestudent’s final oral examination.

Within six weeks after the final oralexamination, two unbound copies of thethesis for the library, including copies of

the abstract, must be deposited in theGraduate School office. If these copiesare submitted after the initial six-weekperiod, the student may be subject to re-examination. The student must obtainon the thesis approval page the originalsignatures of the major professor and thehead of the major department. Therequired Graduate School signature willbe obtained by the Graduate School. Thethesis will not be accepted for gradua-tion requirements until it has receivedapproval by the graduate dean.

Full information concerning theprescribed style for theses is given in thebooklet, Preparing a Thesis or Disserta-tion at OSU: A Graduate Student Guide,available on the Web at http://oregonstate.edu/Dept/grad_school/.

The results from studies conductedusing human subjects without obtainingInstitutional Review Board approvalshall not be used to satisfy master’sthesis or doctoral dissertation require-ments. For complete details, please referto http://oregonstate.edu/research/RegulatoryCompliance/HumanSubjects.html.

The credit allowed for the thesis,including research and preparation ofthe manuscript, varies from 6 to12 credits. In certain departments, theMS or MA thesis is optional, to bedetermined in each case by the depart-ment and the major professor. Seedepartmental descriptions.

FINAL EXAMINATIONSuccessful completion of a final oralexamination is required for all master’sdegrees with the exception of studentswho complete the non-thesis optionunder the EdM degree or the internshipoption for the MPH degree. In thosecases, non-thesis EdM students and MPHstudents who complete the internshipoption must take a final writtenexamination. The final oral examinationshould be scheduled for two hours.Some departments also require thestudent to pass a written exam prior tothe oral exam.

For master’s candidates whoseprograms require a thesis, not more thanhalf of the examination period shouldbe devoted to the presentation anddefense of the thesis; the remaining timecan be spent on questions relating to thestudent’s knowledge of the major field,and minor field if a minor is included inthe program of study. Graduate facultyserving on thesis-oriented master’sdegree programs may contribute to thedirection of the student’s thesis, willassess the student’s thesis and his or herdefense of it in the final oral examina-tion, will vote to pass or fail the student,and may sign the thesis when it is inacceptable final form. The examiningcommittee consists of at least four

members of the graduate faculty-two inthe major field, one in the minor field ifa minor is included, and a GraduateCouncil representative. When a minor isnot included, the fourth member may befrom the graduate faculty at large. Allmembers of the student’s graduatecommittee must approve the schedulingof the final examination.

Students writing a thesis must have aGraduate Council representative ontheir committee. It is the student’sresponsibility to obtain his or her ownGraduate Council representative from alist provided by the Graduate School.This must be done prior to schedulingthe final exam.

When no thesis is involved, not morethan half of the examination periodshould be devoted to the presentation ofthe research project; the remaining timecan be spent on questions relating to thestudent’s knowledge of the major field,and minor field if one is included in theprogram. For nonthesis master’s degreeprograms, the major professor isresponsible for directing and assigning afinal grade for the research or culminat-ing project. Other members of thenonthesis committee will assess thestudent’s defense of the project in thefinal oral examination, as well as thestudent’s knowledge of his or her field,and vote to pass or fail the student. Theexamining committee consists of threemembers of the graduate faculty-two inthe major field and one in the minorfield if a minor is included. When aminor is not included, the third membermay be from the graduate faculty atlarge.

The examining committee is nomi-nated by the student’s adviser, subject tothe approval of the head of the depart-ment and the Graduate School. Onedissenting vote is permitted for boththesis and nonthesis degrees. No morethan two re-examinations are permittedby the Graduate School, althoughacademic units may permit fewer re-examinations.

The final oral examination must bescheduled in the Graduate School notless than one week prior to the date ofthe examination. At the time of the finalexamination the student must havecompleted or be currently registered inall courses required by the student’sprogram. All incomplete course workappearing on the program of study (withthe exception of research/project creditin lieu of thesis) must be completedprior to scheduling the final oralexamination. In addition, the studentmust have a 3.00 GPA for all coursestaken as a graduate student and alsomust have a 3.00 GPA for courses on theprogram of study. For MA degrees, theforeign language requirement must becompleted prior to the final oral exam.

Graduate School 439

MASTER OF AGRICULTUREThe Master of Agriculture (MAg) degreerequires a student to attain advancedknowledge and achievement integratedacross three fields of study. Two of thethree fields must be chosen from theapproved graduate majors or minorsoffered within the College of Agricul-tural Sciences or closely related areas.Any graduate major or minor may serveas the third field for this degree. Withappropriate justification, each of thesethree fields may contain integratedcomponents.

A minimum of 45 credits is requiredfor the degree with a minimum of 24credits outside of the major. Theprogram of study will include a majorfield and two minor fields. The majorfield must be in the College of Agricul-tural Sciences and contain a minimumof 12 credits (excluding research orthesis credit). Students have the optionof a research paper (3–6 credits) or thesis(6 credits). Each minor field mustcontain a minimum of 9 credits. Nomore than 6 blanket-numbered creditsare to be contained in the program,excluding research paper or thesis.

The program is administered by theacademic department of the major fieldand requires the department head’ssignature. The student’s committee willconsist of a representative from themajor and each minor field. A GraduateCouncil representative will serve onthesis programs. The committee willmeet prior to the end of the student’ssecond quarter in the program toapprove the student’s program of studyand proposal. The proposal will includethe student’s academic/professionalbackground, intended occupational/educational destination, and rationalefor the course combinations. A final oralexamination is required and mayinclude questions from both the coursework and the research paper or thesis.

MASTER OF ARTS ININTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIESThe Master of Arts in InterdisciplinaryStudies (MAIS) degree is granted forattainment of broad, advanced knowl-edge and achievement integrated fromthree fields of study. Any graduate majoror minor may serve as a field for thisdegree. Two of the three fields may befrom one department if the areas ofconcentration within these two fieldsare different. At least one field must beselected from among the programs inthe College of Liberal Arts. A minimumof 9 credits in each of the three fields ofstudy is required; at least 12 credits mustbe taken in the College of Liberal Arts.

No more than 21 credits (excludingthesis or research paper credit) may betaken in any field unless the total

program exceeds 45 credits. There is noforeign language requirement. No morethan 3 credits of blanket-numberedcourses in each field of study may beused in the program; thesis credits(Option A) or research paper credits(Option B) are exempt from thislimitation. The student’s committeeconsists of four members of the graduatefaculty-one from each of the three fields-and a Graduate Council representative.A formal program meeting must be heldprior to the completion of 18 graduatecredits. A final oral examination isrequired.

There are two options under theprogram:

Option A: Thesis option. The thesismust coordinate work in the three fields.The requirement is 6 to 9 credits ofThesis 503. The thesis adviser must be amember of the graduate faculty autho-rized to direct theses.

Option B: Research paper option. Theresearch paper does not necessarilyintegrate work from the three fields, buttypically investigates in depth a subjectfrom one or possibly two of the threefields. The requirement is 4 to 7 credits,registered as Research 501, Reading andConference 505, or Projects 506.

MASTER OF ARTS IN TEACHING(MAT)The Master of Arts in Teaching is anintensive professional degree programintended to prepare teachers for careersin public school education. Studentswho successfully complete the MAT canbe recommended for the Oregon basicteaching license upon the positiveevaluations of the university and publicschool supervisors.

The professional program in teachereducation is full-time and one calendaryear in length. Students will enroll withtheir subject area cohort group andcomplete the program in one year.Teacher licensure is offered in thefollowing areas:• Advanced Mathematics Education• Agricultural Education• Biology Education• Business Education• Chemistry Education• Elementary Education• Family and Consumer Sciences

Education• French Education• German Education• Health Education• Integrated Science Education• Language Arts Education (English)• Marketing Education• Music Education• Physical Education• Physics Education

• Spanish Education• Technology EducationThe professional teacher educationprogram begins with a 15-creditprofessional education core that isfoundational to and a prerequisite forthe 48-credit Master of Arts in Teachingdegree. The 48-credit MAT includes aprofessional education concentration(three credits), professional course workin the teaching specialty (18 to 21 credits),a public school professional internship(15 to 18 credits), and a minimum of9 graduate credits in the subject matterspecialization (mathematics, physics,literature, etc.). Because the professionalteacher education program is a two-partprogram, including the professional coreand the MAT, future students may plantheir programs as either five-year (with anine-month MAT) or as fifth yearprograms (with 12 months of graduatestudy including both the professionalcore and the MAT).

The MAT degree requires successfulcompletion of a final oral examination.

A student who does not file a programwithin the specified deadline will not beallowed to register for the next term. Aregistration hold also will be placed ongraduate students whose programs ofstudy are not approved after initialevaluation by the Graduate School anduntil appropriate action is taken to bringthe program of study into compliancewith Graduate Council policy.

RESIDENCEFor the doctoral degree, the residencerequirement consists of two parts:1. a minimum of 36 graduate Oregon

State University credits must becompleted; and

2. the student must spend at leastthree terms of full-time graduateacademic work (at least 9 credits/term) on campus or at an off-campus site approved by theGraduate School. The latter require-ment of 3 terms of full-timeenrollment does not have to takeplace in consecutive terms.

Adequate fulfillment of the residencerequirement shall be determined by theGraduate School.

LANGUAGE REQUIREMENTSThe foreign language requirement isdetermined by the student’s doctoralcommittee, subject to the same approvalrequired for the graduate study program,and is so designated in the officialdoctoral program. Foreign languagerequirements must be completed beforethe oral preliminary examination.

PRELIMINARY EXAMINATIONThe student working toward a doctoraldegree must pass a comprehensivepreliminary examination. The purpose

of this exam is to determine thestudent’s understanding of his or hermajor and minor fields and also to assessthe student’s capability for research.Students must enroll for a minimum ofthree credits during terms in which theyundertake departmental written or oralpreliminary examinations.Written ComprehensiveExaminationMost programs require a writtencomprehensive examination to be takenbefore the oral preliminary examination.If a written examination is required, itmust be completed prior to the oralpreliminary examination. The content,length, timing, passing standard, andrepeatability of this examination are atthe discretion of the major department.The general rules and structure of thisexamination, however, must be providedin writing to all candidates for thisexamination and a current copy of theseguidelines must be on file with theGraduate School. Copies of the writtenexamination (questions and student’sanswers) must be available to allmembers of the student’s doctoralcommittee at least one week prior to theoral preliminary examination.Oral Preliminary ExaminationThe oral preliminary examination istaken near the completion of thestudent’s course work. The oral examina-tion is conducted by the student’sdoctoral committee, and should coverthe student’s knowledge in his or hermajor and minor subjects. The exammay cover the student’s proposedresearch topic, although no more thanone-half the time should be devoted tospecific aspects of the proposal. Theexamination should be scheduled for atleast two hours, and the exam date mustbe scheduled in the Graduate School atleast one week in advance. If more thanone negative vote is recorded by theexamining committee, the candidatewill have failed the oral examination.No more than two re-examinations arepermitted by the Graduate School,although academic units may allowfewer re-examinations.

At least one complete academic term mustelapse between the time of the preliminaryoral examination and the final oralexamination. If more than five years elapsebetween these two examinations, thecandidate will be required to take anotherpreliminary oral examination.

THESISEach candidate for the PhD degree mustsubmit a thesis embodying the results ofresearch and giving evidence of original-ity and ability in independent investiga-tion. The thesis must be a real contribu-tion to knowledge, based on thecandidate’s own investigation. It must


show a mastery of the literature of thesubject and be written in creditableliterary form. The preparation of anacceptable thesis will require at least onefull-time academic year. The booklet,Preparing a Thesis or Dissertation atOSU: A Graduate Student’s Guide, isavailable electronically on the Web athttp://oregonstate.edu/Dept/grad_school/.

The results from studies conductedusing human subjects without obtainingInstitutional Review Board approvalshall not be used to satisfy master’sthesis or doctoral dissertation require-ments. For complete details, please referto http://oregonstate.edu/research/RegulatoryCompliance/HumanSubjects.html.

A formal thesis proposal meeting isrecommended but not required by theGraduate School; however, it is requiredfor some majors. This meeting should beheld with the student’s doctoralcommittee prior to the start of anysubstantial doctoral thesis research.

When scheduling their final oralexaminations, doctoral students arerequired to submit the pretext pages oftheir dissertations to the GraduateSchool at least two weeks prior to thefinal oral examination. Pretext pagesinclude the abstract, copyright (op-tional), title page, approval page,acknowledgment page, contribution ofauthors, table of contents, list of figures,tables, appendices, dedication (op-tional), and preface (optional). It isexpected that students will distributeexamination copies of their thesis to allcommittee members, including theGraduate Council representative,sufficiently early to permit thoroughreview of the thesis prior to the student’sfinal oral examination. Within six weeksof the final oral examination, two finalcopies of the thesis for the library andone extra copy of the abstract and titlepage must be deposited unbound in theGraduate School. Doctoral studentsentering their degree programs fall 2000or later also are required to submit acopy of their thesis electronically. Thethesis will not be accepted for gradua-tion requirements until it has receivedapproval by the graduate dean.

A doctoral thesis abstract of not morethan 350 words will be published by Belland Howell/University Microfilms inDissertation Abstracts. Candidates forthe doctor of philosophy and doctor ofeducation degrees pay a minimum fee of$55 for archiving of the thesis in itsentirety by University Microfilms andpublication of the abstract in Disserta-tion Abstracts. The student, uponcompleting the doctorate, is asked to fillout the form for survey of earneddoctorates.

FINAL EXAMINATIONAfter completion of or while concur-rently registered for all work required bythe program, the student must pass afinal doctoral examination that may bewritten in part but must include an oralexamination. The final oral examinationmust be scheduled in the GraduateSchool Office at least two weeks prior tothe date of the examination. Allincomplete course work appearing onthe program of study must be completedprior to scheduling the final oralexamination.

The final oral examination consists ofa public thesis defense followed by aclosed session of the examiningcommittee with the candidate. Undernormal circumstances, the final oralexamination should be scheduled fortwo hours.

All members of the student’s graduatecommittee must approve the schedulingof the final examination.

It is expected that the thesis defenseportion of the final oral exam be open toall interested persons and should belimited to one hour. After the openportion of the exam, the examiningcommittee should exclude all otherpersons and continue with the examina-tion of the candidate’s knowledge of hisor her field and the evaluation of thecandidate’s performance.

If the department favors a moreelaborate presentation, it should bescheduled as a separate seminar. In anycase, the time involved for the openpresentation may not impinge upontime required for the examiningcommittee to conduct appropriate,iterative oral inquiry with the candidate,to evaluate the candidate’s performance,and to deliberate fully within the timeconstraints of the scheduled oralexamination.

The examining committee consists ofthe student’s doctoral committee andany additional members, includingprofessors from other institutions,whom the major department mayrecommend. In the oral examination,the candidate is expected to defend thethesis and show a satisfactory knowledgeof his or her field. If more than onenegative vote is recorded by theexamining committee, the candidatewill have failed the examination. Nomore than two re-examinations arepermitted by the Graduate School,although academic units may permitfewer re-examinations.

The final oral examination must betaken within five years after the oralpreliminary examination. If more thanfive years elapse, the candidate will berequired to take another oral prelimi-nary examination.

RESEARCH SERVICESAVAILABLE TO GRADUATESTUDENTS

Advancement of knowledge throughresearch at Oregon State University isencouraged and assisted by severalinstitutional agencies. These efforts arecoordinated through the UniversityResearch Office.

Opportunities for research as anintegral part of graduate education areafforded in a wide range of fieldssponsored by experiment stations,institutes, centers, and individualdepartments. Graduate studentsnormally develop research programs andapply for assistantships through theacademic units. In this way, the exper-tise, guidance, and facilities of theresearch agencies support and supple-ment the graduate education opportuni-ties of the university.

Certain university-wide services areavailable as an aid to thesis research.These include statistical consulting bythe Department of Statistics, laboratoryanimal support from the LaboratoryAnimal Resources Center, approval ofhuman subjects research by the Institu-tional Review Board, and the IllinoisResearcher Information Service (IRIS)from the library. The library subscribesto more than 100 electronic biblio-graphic and full-text databases, many ofwhich are networked and can besearched from off campus. The IRISdatabase is available to OSU studentsthrough the World Wide Web and maybe searched by subject key words,academic discipline, or sponsor: http://o-www.library.uiuc.edu.oasis.oregonstate.edu/iris/. For more informa-tion on any of these services visit thelibrary’s Web site at http://osulibrary.oregonstate.edu/.

Faculty members and doctoralcandidates are eligible to apply forresearch rooms by contacting the AccessServices Department. PhD candidates arecautioned to ask for assignment for the

period when they will have the mostneed of such a facility. Interlibrary loanservice is available for graduate studentsand faculty. Any item needed by aqualified borrower may be requested onloan from any other library within theUnited States and some foreign countriesif it is not owned by the OSU library.Certain categories, such as rare items,new items, and reference books, areexempt from loan. All resident faculty,staff, and graduate students are eligiblefor interlibrary loan service on presenta-tion of a valid OSU identification card.Length of time and conditions of use ofthe borrowed items are the prerogativeof the lending library.

Departmental libraries, journal clubs,and outside seminar speakers, as well asopportunities for graduate students topresent seminars, are available in manydepartments.

Complete information regarding theuniversity’s libraries; museums, galleries,and collections; information services;and the Research Office, may be foundin earlier sections of this catalog.Institutional Review BoardApproval of Human SubjectsResearchIt is Oregon State University policy thatthe OSU Institutional Review Board(IRB) must review all research thatinvolves human subjects. The resultsfrom studies conducted withoutobtaining IRB review and approval maynot be published or widely distributed,nor can such data be used to satisfyhonors thesis, master’s thesis or doctoraldissertation requirements.

The requirement for IRB review ofresearch involving human subjects isbased upon research ethics and federallaw, and the implications of conductinghuman subjects research without IRBapproval are significant. Failure tofollow this policy places both theindividual and the institution at risk: theindividual may be subject to universitysanctions and/or incur personal liabilityfor negligence and harm; the universitycould loose access to federal funding orbe forced to cease all human subjectsresearch. Consult the OSU HumanSubjects Handbook (which is availableon the Web at http://oregonstate.edu/research/RegulatoryCompliance/HumanSubjects.html for more details.

THE UNIVERSITY GRADUATEFACULTY OF ECONOMICSSteven Buccola, PhD, Chair

The University Graduate Faculty ofEconomics consists of economicsgraduate faculty members of threeparticipating departments: Agriculturaland Resource Economics, Economics,and Forest Resources. Each of these

departments offers the Master of Arts,the Master of Science, and the Doctor ofPhilosophy degrees. The chair of theUniversity Graduate Faculty of Econom-ics administers an economics coreprogram required of all studentspursuing an economics degree from anyof the three departments.

The University Graduate Faculty ofEconomics also sponsors visitinglecturers, works to improve library andother research materials, seeks to attractoutstanding students to study econom-ics at Oregon State University, adminis-ters written preliminary examinationsfor the PhD program, and generallycoordinates the graduate work of thethree departments. The UniversityGraduate Faculty of Economics Programwas established in 1986.

INTERNATIONAL STUDYAND RESEARCHIn order to facilitate graduate studyabroad, the Office of InternationalEducation has a resource library thatcontains information about grants,scholarships, and other forms offinancial assistance for study, work, orresearch abroad. Fulbright and NSEPscholarship advisers are also available.Graduate students can participate inseveral of the study abroad programsoffered through OSU; however, closeconsultation with the Graduate Schooland the student’s graduate adviser arenecessary to assure credit recognition.For example, a program in Denmark hasbeen developed for MBA candidates.Brochures are available in the Office ofInternational Education.

To receive federal financial aid, astudent must be a citizen of the UnitedStates or an eligible non-citizen, beenrolled at least half time, be in goodstanding in a graduate program leadingto a degree or certificate.

To determine eligibility for the specificfederal programs at OSU, graduatestudents are required to complete theFree Application for Federal Student Aid(FAFSA) each year. Students enrolled in agraduate program are consideredindependent and parent information isnot required. The application is sent to afederally approved processor whoanalyzes the information in accordancewith a method prescribed by Congress. Adetailed financial analysis is thenforwarded to OSU. To determinefinancial aid eligibility, the universitytakes this calculated student contribu-tion and subtracts this figure from thestandard cost of education at OregonState University.

The Office of Financial Aid andScholarships requires the financial aidapplication to be completed and mailedbetween January 1 and February 1 forgraduate students planning to enroll thefollowing fall term.

Michael L. Kent, DirectorWeb site: http://oregonstate.edu/dept/salmon

The faculty of Oregon State Universityhave been in the forefront of fish diseaseresearch for over 30 years, beginningwith the pioneering efforts of Dr. John L.Fryer, OSU Distinguished Professor ofthe Department of Microbiology. Duringthis time, faculty members engaged insalmonid disease research has increasedand currently numbers twelve in fourcolleges. Investigators have trainedmany of the nation’s professional fishpathologists and fish health researchers,have developed vaccines and diagnostictests that are routinely used for culturedand wild stocks of fish, and haveprovided a wealth of knowledge on thepathogenic mechanisms and epidemiol-ogy of most of the serious salmoniddiseases of the U.S. and the world. TheCenter for Fish Disease Research (CFDR)was established in 1994 as amultidisciplinary unit to recognize thisgroup as a Research and EducationalCenter within Oregon State Universityand the Oregon State System of HigherEducation. Center investigators consistof faculty selected primarily from theCollege of Agricultural Sciences and theCollege of Science, with the involve-ment of several faculty from the Collegeof Pharmacy, the College of VeterinaryMedicine, and other units or institutionsas appropriate.

The CFDR seeks to resolve diseaseproblems which present a threat to thesalmonid species and other fishes of thePacific Northwest, the nation, and theworld. A central function of the center isto promote and assist the salmoniddisease research of center investigators.

CENTER FOR GENERESEARCH ANDBIOTECHNOLOGY

James C. Carrington, DirectorWeb site: http://www.cgrb.orst.edu

We are experiencing a revolution in thebiological sciences. Spectacular progressin understanding genome structure,complex cellular processes, developmentof all types of organisms, and evolutionis occurring on a daily basis. Theseadvances are fueled by innovation, newtechnologies, and multidisciplinarycollaborations that combine biochemis-try, genetics, computer sciences,molecular and cellular imaging, andengineering. The Center for Gene

Research and Biotechnology at OregonState University facilitates the develop-ment of molecular biological and geneticresearch with the ultimate goal ofimproving health, natural and agricul-tural resources, and environmentalquality. The center offers leadership andservices to faculty, staff and studentsthrough core facilities, seminars, andretreats. It also provides a focal point forresearchers to establish contacts, initiatecollaborations, and establish newtechnologies in their own laboratories.

Established in 1983, the Center forGene Research and Biotechnologyconsists of 86 scientists, all holdingprimary appointments in academicdepartments of the Colleges of Agricul-tural Sciences, Engineering, Forestry,Pharmacy, Science, and VeterinaryMedicine. The center was established tomeet several objectives: (1) to acknowl-edge explicitly the interdisciplinarycharacter of today’s biology by creating astructure that spans departmental andcollege boundaries; (2) to increasecommunication among researchers withshared interests; (3) to foster thedevelopment of research collaborations,particularly those that focus newtechnologies on problems of practicalimportance; (4) to facilitate develop-ment of new technologies; (5) to providea vehicle for seeking new kinds ofsupport for research and graduatetraining; and (6) to enhance thebiological research and educationalenvironment on campus by seekingopportunities to recruit outstanding newfaculty members.

The center’s main focus is on thestructure, expression, and manipulationof genetic information. The success ofthis effort played a key role in thechartering of the Center for GeneResearch and Biotechnology. However,the center’s responsibilities in bothgenetics and biotechnology led to therealization that biotechnology encom-passes many more disciplines andtechnologies than those based simplyupon molecular genetics. Accordingly,the focus has broadened, with thecenter’s current membership beingdrawn from 17 departments in sixcolleges.

A key part of the center is the CentralServices Laboratory (CSL), a core facilitythat is available to all researchers on theOSU campus. The CSL is a fully staffedfacility that serves as a focal point foracquisition and development of newinstrumentation and technologies. TheCSL focuses its efforts in four areas:genomic services, functional genomics,bioinformatics, and imaging. The CSLprovides DNA sequencing, DNAsynthesis and fragment analysis(genotyping) services; high-throughputmicroarray services for analysis of global

Research 455

gene expression patterns in all types oforganisms; advanced computationalresources for data mining, data analysisand database development; and aconfocal laser scanning microscopefacility for high-resolution analysis of awide variety of specimens. In addition,the center maintains a set of common-use instruments and computers forresearch and data presentation.

The center coordinates a seminarprogram in which faculty, staff andstudents can interact with outstandingscientists from other institutions andorganizations. The center also sponsors ayearly retreat for scientific exchange,building collaborations, strengtheningties across departmental and collegeboundaries, and social interaction.

The director of the center reports tothe vice provost for research. He isserved by a scientific advisory boardcommittee and an administrativeadvisory board.

issues, legal and institutional complexi-ties, and water and land uses and useimpacts. Research assistantships andfellowships are available through manyof the member departments and CWEStcoordinates graduate research assistant-ships for both the USGS and the EPA.

TOSC and TAB hold frequent commu-nity meetings and workshops tofacilitate local involvement in hazardouscleanup decision-making. The WaterResources Program sponsors an interdis-ciplinary graduate minor in WaterResources with a specialization inHydrology, Water Quality, or WaterResources Planning and Management.The Sustainable University Programperiodically hosts and guides anundergraduate research team on a topicof interest to sustainability. Bothprograms organize workshops on topicsof current interest.

A seminar series is offered each fallterm by CWESt to provide a forum fordiscussion of current controversial waterresource issues. CWESt also producesOSU Sustainability News, an electronicnewsletter that highlights activities andevents related to sustainability at OSU.

COOPERATIVE INSTITUTEFOR MARINE RESOURCESSTUDIES

Clare Reimers, DirectorWeb site: http://oregonstate.edu/groups/cimrs/

The Cooperative Institute for MarineResources Studies was established in1982 to foster collaborative researchbetween the National Oceanic andAtmospheric Administration (NOAA)and Oregon State University in fisheries,aquaculture, oceanography, and relatedfields. It also encourages education andtraining of scientists in disciplinesrelated to marine resources.

Administered through the viceprovost for research, the institute is theacademic home for a staff of 20 to 25(total) assistant professors, researchassociates, and faculty research assis-tants. It also has other members fromNOAA’s Pacific Marine EnvironmentalLaboratory, the National MarineFisheries Service and a number ofdepartments at OSU. Headquarters are atthe Hatfield Marine Science Center inNewport.

The broad goal of the CooperativeInstitute for Marine Resources Studies isto coordinate research focused on livingand nonliving marine resources. Theinstitute works with projects thatemphasize basic science and environ-mental impacts. The geographic area ofinterest extends over the eastern Pacific

Ocean from northern California to theBering Sea. The institute promotescooperative projects between govern-ment and the university. Its cooperativeagreements with NOAA laboratoriesprovide a mechanism for OSU faculty,staff and students to work with federalscientists on research that leads to theunderstanding of global ocean processesand fisheries resource issues.

ENVIRONMENTALHEALTH SCIENCES CENTER

Joseph Beckman, DirectorWeb site: http://www.ehsc.orst.edu

The Environmental Health SciencesCenter was established in 1967 withfunding by the National Institute ofEnvironmental Health Sciences (NIEHS).As an organizational unit under the viceprovost for research, it provides re-sources for coordination and stimulationof interdisciplinary basic research andtraining related to the effects of environ-mental factors on human health.

Environmental quality problems andtheir resultant effects continue tochallenge people’s health and theirability to understand and manage theevolving impact of environmentalagents. Solutions to environmentalproblems require the interdisciplinaryscientific efforts of professionals inmany fields, both to generate newknowledge and to develop a qualifiedcadre of scientists who can provide animproved basis for risk assessment.

The EHS Center currently bringstogether and uses a variety of profes-sional capabilities of research andteaching faculty, staff, and students fromnumerous OSU departments, schools,and colleges within OSU. Academic areasinclude chemistry, biochemistry andbiophysics, environmental and molecu-lar toxicology, microbiology, molecularand cell biology, food science andtechnology, fisheries and wildlife,veterinary medicine, pharmacology,zoology, and statistics. The center’svisiting scientists program complementsresearch expertise in these areas.

The broad mission of the EHS Centerencompasses coordinated ongoingresearch of its faculty and encouragesresearch by the training and support ofqualified graduate students, predoctoralcandidates, and postdoctoral researchassociates. As one of 26 national researchcenters designated by NIEHS, the EHSCenter at OSU enhances the collabora-tive scientific research of its investigatorswith specialized core facilities. Thecenter serves as an interdisciplinaryresource on human health as related tothe environment; it periodically awards


funding for pilot projects submitted byOSU faculty to encourage new ap-proaches in environmental healthresearch. Selected proposals receivefunding for preliminary studies, many ofwhich have led to agency funding asmajor projects. It sponsors conferences,symposia, seminars, and meetings forstudent training, faculty consultations,and public communication. The EHSCenter, through the OSU CooperativeExtension Service and other existingmechanisms, has developed a Commu-nity Outreach and Education Program tocommunicate and heighten publicawareness about environmental issuesand the related recognition of risk tohuman health.

Examples of specific research areasinclude toxicology of environmentalchemicals, cellular and biochemicaltoxicology, immunotoxicology, naturallyoccurring toxins, carcinogenesis ofenvironmental chemicals, genetictoxicology, mass spectrometric ioniza-tion processes and methodologies,heteronuclear NMR studies, the chemi-cal basis for solid waste and chemicalwaste disposal, and statistical studies,e.g., temporal aspects of cancer risks.

Federal environmental healthlegislation, particularly the ToxicSubstances Control Act, has created agreater need for qualified toxicologists.To help meet this need, many EHSCenter investigators serve as facultywithin the OSU MS/PhD interdiscipli-nary graduate Toxicology Program, aswell as being faculty for the ongoingpredoctoral and postdoctoral trainingprogram supported by the NIEHS andadministered by the center. The focus ofthe training and research in environ-mental toxicology emphasizes determi-nation of the mode of action of environ-mental chemicals; the curricula encour-age use of biochemical, pathological,and pharmacological approaches toacquire a mastery in aquatic, biochemi-cal, comparative, environmental, food,as well as general toxicology.

The administrative office of the EHSCenter is in the Agricultural and LifeSciences (ALS) building; the research andteaching facilities are in the cooperatingdepartments on campus. The EHS Centeroffice has information available uponrequest.

THE KIEWIT CENTER FORINFRASTRUCTURE ANDTRANSPORTATION

James R. Lundy, Interim DirectorWeb site: http://kiewit.oregonstate.eduE-mail: [email protected]

BackgroundThe Kiewit Center for Infrastructure andTransportation was initially establishedin 1962 as the Transportation ResearchInstitute. The Kiewit Center will serve asthe umbrella organization for almost allresearch within the Civil, Constructionand Environmental Engineering

Department. The center is a keycomponent in the College ofEngineering’s drive to become a top25 engineering program, coordinatingmulti- and inter-disciplinary researchprojects.

For the last 150 years, civil engineershave built the infrastructure upon whichAmerican prosperity rests. Roads,bridges, aviation, dams, schools, and safedrinking water form the foundation forour quality of life. Today that founda-tion is crumbling. Americans experiencethis deterioration every day. A recentreport by the American Society of CivilEngineers confirms what most Ameri-cans already know - the ASCE reportgave the U.S. infrastructure an overallgrade of D+.

The center is an interdisciplinary unitthat provides research, education andpublic service related to the builtenvironment and the systems thatoperate in that environment.Facilities• Center for Port Operations, Risk and

Technology - Reducing the vulnerability of the

MICROTECHNOLOGY-BASEDENERGY, CHEMICAL, ANDBIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS

M. Kevin Drost, DirectorWeb site: http://mecs.oregonstate.edu/index.html

Microtechnology-Based Energy, Chemi-cal and Biological Systems (MECS)extends miniaturization from electronicsto energy, chemical, biomedical, andbiological systems. MECS-relatedtechnologies include visual anthraxdetection, electronics cooling, onsitetoxic-waste cleanup, and man-portablecooling and power production.

Mass production of miniaturizedcomponents and devices is a keytechnology for the 21st century with thepotential to improve our standard ofliving, as well as enhance our globalcompetitiveness. Success in exploitingthis technology will be tied to openingup and developing new areas ofminiaturization. One development inthis regard has become clear in recentyears—the manufacturing advancesdeveloped by the electronics industry forMEMS (MicroElectro MechanicalSystems) can be applied to the area ofenergy, chemical, biomedical andbiological systems with as muchpotential as that which existed at thestart of the electronics revolution. Wehave termed this area Microtechnology-based Energy and Chemical Systems(MECS).
