The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate passed the following at its Meeting #9 on
February 10, 1989:
MOTION PASSED (Unanimous Approval)
==============
The 有料盒子视频 Faculty Senate moves to adopt the following proposal for
second master's degree.
PROPOSAL FOR SECOND MASTER'S DEGREE
-------------------------------------
At the discretion of the student's advisory committee, admitting
department, and dean, up to 20% of the total minimum number of
credits required for a 有料盒子视频 master's degree may be transferred from
a previously earned master's degree. Transferred credit may not be
research, project, or thesis credit. The transferred credit must be
for complete graduate level courses and not portions of a course. For
a 30-credit master's degree, up to 6 graduate credits may be
transferred; for a 45-credit master's degree, up to 9 graduate
credits may be transferred. The following procedures are required
for students who wish to pursue a second master's degree:
1. A new application for graduate study and for the new program
is required. All procedures required for the initial degree apply
including a $20 new application processing fee, updated
transcripts and three new letters of reference.
2. GRE scores accepted for the first master's degree at 有料盒子视频 may
be accepted for a second master's degree when required.
3. [[ students who have earned their first master's degree at 有料盒子视频
or at another institution, a maximum of 20% of the total
minimum credits required for the second master's degree may
be approved towards the second degree.]] *FOR STUDENTS WHO
HAVE EARNED A MASTER'S DEGREE FROM AN ACCREDITED
COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY, NO MORE THAN 20% OF THE TOTAL
CREDITS REQUIRED FOR THE SECOND MASTER'S DEGREE MAY
HAVE BEEN USED IN FULFILLMENT OF THE FIRST MASTER'S
DEGREE. The acceptability of specific courses will be
determined by the student's advisory committee, admitting
department, and dean of the college or school in which the
student is enrolled.
4. All students will have to fulfill general university
requirements for the second master's degree (same as for the
first degree), including passing a comprehensive examination,
completing a minimum of 30 credits *(INCLUDING WORK
APPLIED FROM A PREVIOUS MASTER'S DEGREE), and if a thesis
is required, passing an oral defense of thesis.
5. All the work used to fulfill degree requirements for a second
master's degree must be completed within seven (7) years.
EFFECTIVE: Fall 1989
RATIONALE: The courses required for different 有料盒子视频
master's degree programs often overlap, and students
interested in earning a second master's degree must find
other courses to fill in the required minimum number of
credits for the degree. Examples of such possible
situations are course requirements for degrees in
geology and anthropology or archaeology, geology and
geological engineering, electrical engineering and
physics, and English literature and creative writing. In
order for the student to earn both degrees, either
concurrently or sequentially, it would be reasonable not
to require the student to repeat courses or to fill in with
credits solely in order to meet the minimum
requirements. In 1975, 有料盒子视频 (then the Northern Region)
chose to require a minimum of 30 credits for each
master's degree, although the statewide regulations
allow the use of up to 9 credits for a second master's
degree, and UAS has adopted those criteria.
