COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCE
Anthropology
ANTH 327 UG		Anthropology of Gender	Add prerequisite		Knowledge from prerequisite is critical for the course
ANTH 342 UG		Economic Anthropology	Delete course		Low demand for course/ free resources for new courses related to the new Pd.D program.
ANTH 353 UG		Archaeological Survey	Renumber to ANTH 466 UG, drop one of two prerequisites		The relevant material in ANTH 101H: Intro to Anthropology is covered in ANTH 250S: Intro to Archaeology, so 101H is redundant as a prerequisite.
ANTH 355 UG		Artifact Analysis	Change level and course number to ANTH 455 UG		This change will encourage and facilitate graduate student enrollment.
ANTH 365 UG		Human Evolution	Change level and course number to ANTH 410 UG		This change will encourage and facilitate graduate student enrollment.
ANTH 366 UG		Primatology	Change level and course number to ANTH 411 UG		This change will encourage and facilitate graduate student enrollment.
ANTH 367 UG		Visual Anthropology	Renumber to 311 and change from UG to U		The level of content and administration of this course is not appropriate for graduate students.
ANTH 381 UG		Anthropological Data Analysis	Change level and course number to ANTH 401 UG		This change will encourage and facilitate graduate student enrollment.
ANTH 387 UG		Food and Culture	Renumber to 103, change from UG to U		The material in the course is not upper level
ANTH 413 UG		Forensic & Mortuary Archaeology	New course		Students in the forensic anthropology option are required to complete a field experience in archaeology. At present they can only do so by taking ANTH 353: Archaeological Survey. The addition of forensic students to this class increases its enrollment to an unmanageable level. Therefore, this new course is proposed to provide forensic anthropology students an alternative way to acquire an archaeological field experience. No other department offers field archaeology courses.
ANTH 415 UG		The Emergence of Modern Human	New course		This course explores the cultural, archaeological, and anatomical evidence surrounding the emergence of modern Human from our pre-modern ancestors. It fits squarely within paleoanthropology and complements our “Human Evolution” course.
ANTH 416 UG		Dental Anthropology	New course		Dental anthropology contributes to Human evolution studies, the study of adaptation, and to bioarchaeology.
ANTH 417 UG		Adaptation and Nutritional Anthropology	New course		This course combines two traditional areas of physical anthropology that we have not offered previously due to limited faculty. These areas are Human adaptation (how Human adapt to their environments) and nutritional anthropology (the study of food use and nutrition as a part of Human adaptation to their environment. Addition of a new faculty member with expertise in these areas allows us to offer a combined class covering these topics.
ANTH 430 UG		Social Anthropology	Drop one of two prerequisites		The relevant material in ANTH 101H: Intro to Anthropology is covered in greater detail in ANTH 220S: Comparative Social Organization. Therefore 101H is redundant as a prerequisite.
ANTH 446S UG		Culture, Family Systems, and Marriage	Delete course		Low demand for course/ free resources for new courses related to the new Pd.D program.
ANTH 454 UG		Lithic Technology	New course		The analysis of lithic artifacts and debitage is a valuable skill for archaeologists
ANTH 456 UG		Historic Sites Archaeology	Change prerequisite		ANTH 101H: Intro to Anthropology is an incorrect prerequisite. The prerequisite should be ANTH 250S: Intro to archaeology, since this is an archaeology course.
ANTH 460N UG		Human Variation	Change to lower division, renumber to 310N, change level from UG to U		We want to discourage grad students from taking this course. They should take the new course, ANTH 510: Seminar in Human Variation and Evolution, instead.
ANTH 461 UG		Forensic Science and Technology	Renumber to ANTH 486 UG and change description		We are continuing to refine the distinction between ANTH 261N: Survey of the Forensic Sciences (renumbered to 286N) and this course. Our plan is that 261N will focus on the crime lab forensic Sciences with a strong component of basic Science, while this course will focus on other forensic Sciences not normally practiced at a crime lab (e.g. forensic computer Science).
ANTH 462 UG		Principles of Forensic Anthropology	Change level and number to ANTH 314, Change from UG to U, change prerequisite		Discourage grad student enrollment. Knowledge from prerequisite is critical for the course
ANTH 465 UG		Human Identification	Renumber to ANTH 414 UG, change prerequisite		Since this course focuses on skeletal remains, Osteology (ANTH 412) should be a prerequisite instead of Principles of Forensic Anthropology (ANTH 462, renumbered to 314)
ANTH 487 UG		Anthropological Field Experience	New course		We intend this course to be a bag course for a variety of organized archaeological, ethnographic, and forensic field experiences which have previously been offered under ANTH 353: Archaeological Survey, and ANTH 495: Special Topics.
Program Modification		Forensic Anthropology Option	Clarification of major subarea designations		Catalog description of the Forensic Anthropology minor is unclear and inaccurate. We are adding several new classes and need to assign them to their correct subarea
ANTH 501		Documentary Anthropological Research Methods	New course		This course is part of the new Ph.D. curriculum. Working with documentary sources of data is a critical skill for many aspects of cultural heritage and historical anthropology.
ANTH 502		Curatorial and Archival Management	New course		The management of collections and archives is a common task for cultural heritage professionals, especially those working for museums or federal agencies. Therefore, we propose to offer it as part of our Ph.D. curriculum.
ANTH 503		Cultural Resource Interpretation	New course		Cultural resource interpretation is a valuable skill for cultural heritage managers, especially those who work for museums or federal agencies. Therefore, we propose to offer this as part of our curriculum.
ANTH 510		Seminar in Human Variation and Evolution	New course		This is a graduate seminar for a new faculty member, to allow her to teach topics related to her specialty in human variation and evolution. No other department offers courses on these topics.
ANTH 513		Seminar in Bioarchaeology and Skeletal Biology	New course		This is a new offering by a new faculty member. Bioarchaeology is a field in which physical anthropologists articulate with cultural heritage. Therefore, it is a critical course for the Ph.D. curriculum in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology.
ANTH 551		Seminar in Historical Archaeology	New course		This is a new course for a new faculty member to allow her to teach her specialty of historic archaeology. Historic archaeology is also an integral part of the curriculum for our Ph.D. program in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology.
ANTH 552		Power, Prestige & Things	New course		The detection and interpretation of socioeconomic inequality in the archaeological record is a mainstream topic in modern archaeology and cultural heritage studies.
ANTH 583		Theories and Concepts in Physical Anthropology	Renumber to ANTH 511, change title (Seminar in Physical Anthropology) and shorten description		We would like to change and shorten the title to be consistent with similar seminars such as Seminar in Archaeology, Seminar in Ethnology, etc. The description change reflect dropping the emphasis on preparing students to teach introductory physical anthropology courses, which has not been an emphasis since Prof. Smith retired in 1991.
ANTH 586		Seminar in CRM: Proposal Preparation & Contract Management	Change number/level to ANTH 601, change title to Proposal Preparation and Contract Management, and change description		We propose to change the number of these courses from 500 level to 600 level to signify that they are part of the core course sequence for the Ph.D. in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology. The changes in the titles and descriptions are to broaden the focus of these courses from only CRM and archaeology to the broader arena of cultural heritage studies.
ANTH 587		Seminar in Cultural Recourse Management	Change number/level to ANTH 602, change title to Cultural Heritage Policy & Practice, and change description		We propose to change the number of these courses from 500 level to 600 level to signify that they are part of the core course sequence for the Ph.D. in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology. The changes in the titles and descriptions are to broaden the focus of these courses from only CRM and archaeology to the broader arena of cultural heritage studies.
ANTH 593		Professional Project	New course		We propose this bag course as a mechanism to allow our M.A. students who earn their degree with a professional project or paper to enroll in course for this work other than ANTH 597: Research. This leaves ANTH 597 for research projects other than those directed toward a professional project or thesis. Several other departments use the 593 number for this purpose including: CHEM, COMM, EVST, MATH, and PHIL. Some title the course “Professional Paper” and others title it “Professional Project”. We prefer the title “Professional Project” because some projects, such as a museum exhibit, may produce a result that it not a “paper”.
ANTH 596		Independent Study	New course		This course will allow graduate students to receive credit for independent studies project that are not research.
ANTH 597		Research	Increase repeatability to 10 cr		We propose to increase repeatability 10 in these courses, because M.A. students should be allowed to use all of the 10 credits in research/thesis allowed by Graduate School policy on either their thesis research or non-thesis research, according to their goals.
ANTH 599		Research	Increase repeatability to 10 cr		We propose to increase repeatability 10 in these courses, because M.A. students should be allowed to use all of the 10 credits in research/thesis allowed by Graduate School policy on either their thesis research or non-thesis research, according to their goals.
ANTH 600		Issues in Cultural Heritage	New course		ANTH 600 will be the first and foundational course in the core sequence for the Ph.D. in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology.
ANTH 694		Seminar in Cultural Heritage	New course		We envision this course as a bag course for faculty who wish to have regular formal meetings with a select group of Ph.D. students to discuss literature and issues in a specific topic. It may also function as a “Special Topics” bag course for the Ph.D. level.
ANTH 697		Advanced Research	New course		This is a normal bag course for Ph.D. students doing research projects other than their dissertation.
ANTH 699		Dissertation	New course		This is a normal bag course for students working on their dissertation.
Program Modification		PhD in Cultural Heritage Studies and Historical Anthropology	Clarification of curriculum		The new curriculum necessitates some changes to the existing M.A. program.

Social Work
SW 350 UG	Social Work Intervention Methods I			Change in course description		Faculty determined SW 350 and SW 360 need not be completed in numerical order. Students may complete SW 360 first if they choose, offering increased flexibility. Whichever of the two courses the student completes first, they will be required to have SW 300 as a coreq. When they complete the second of the two courses (SW 350 or 360), SW 300 becomes a prereq. Thus the unusual designation of SW 300 as prereq. or coreq.
SW 360 UG	Social Work Intervention Methods II			Change in course description		Same as above
SW 465 UG	Social Work in a Global Context			New course		This course was well-received when offered in Spring 2004. This is the only Social work course to focus exclusively on international issues, thus meeting a need for both the undergraduate and graduate program. It also draws students from other disciplines. The course responds specifically to a gap identified in electives for MSW students interested in community development and Social change.
SW 470 UG	Mental Health Practice in Rural Settings			New course		The course is one that specifically ties Social work students to citizens in rural communities who experience a wide array of mental health conditions and concerns but who have limited access to quality care. The course offers an elective option for undergraduate and graduate students who are likely to practice in Montana’s rural communities.
