148 BOARD OF TRUSTEES (January 15 Revision of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Industrial Engineering Area of Concentration, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the industrial engineering area of concentration. The revision includes the addition of two courses to the list of required courses and increasing the total hours required for the industrial engineering specialization from 48 to 54 quarter hours. In addition, there are revisions in several of the required courses. The added requirements are deemed essential to a student specializing in this area. Revision of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Science, Engineering Physics Area of Concentration, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the engineering physics area of concentration which is associated with the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The revision adds one 4-hour course to the list of required courses. The total number of hours needed for students in this area of concentration is increased from 44 to 48 quarter hours. In addition, the student is permitted additional flexibility in choosing engineering design courses. The additional requirement was necessary because it is a prerequisite for two other courses in the area. Revision of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Communication Engineering Area of Concentration, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the communication engineering area of concentration. The change allows revision of the area into two options, communications and control systems; requires 8 quarter hours of technical electives; and increases the total hours required for specialization in the area from 48 to 60 quarter hours. The subdivision of the communication engineering area was recommended by the official accreditation body in engineering. Revision of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Electromagnetic and Electronic Area of Concentration, Department o f Information Engineering, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the electromagnetic and electronic area of concentration. The change allows the revision of the area into four options: computer systems, electromagnetics, electronic circuits, and integrated electronics; requires 8 quarter hours of technical electives; and increases the total hours required for specialization in the area from 48 to 60 quarter hours. The subdivision of the electromagnetic and electronic engineering area was recommended by the official accreditation body in engineering. Revision o f the Bachelor of Science in Engineering, Computer and Information Systems Area of Concentration, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the computer and information systems area of specialization. The change increases the technical electives from 8 to 16 quarter hours and expands the list of courses. The change also increases the total number of hours required for specialization in the area from 48 to 52 quarter hours. The revision was made due to the restructuring of the engineering common core (see item 1 above). Revision of the Major in Biological Sciences in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Chicago Circle The Chicago Circle Senate has approved a revision of the major in biological sciences. The change would add the provision that at least 8 of the 48 required quarter hours must be at the 300-level.
