RECOMMENDATIONS

 

Dear Senators:

The Senate Educational Policy Committee makes the following recommendations relative to EP.11.15 (proposal from the Chancellor and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs to eliminate the BS in Aviation Human Factors, the MS in Human Factors and the Professional Pilot Curriculum in the Institute of Aviation) and EP.11.32 (proposal from the Chancellor and Provost to close the Institute of Aviation):

1.         Continue to offer the MS in Human Factors for up to two years through the Graduate College. During this period, the Provost’s Office will try to find a permanent home for the degree program. In case no permanent home is found for the MS degree program, it will be automatically terminated at the end of two years.

2.         Terminate the BS in Aviation Human Factors; terminate the Professional Pilot Curriculum and close the Institute of Aviation.

Thank you for your consideration.
