    During academic year 2001/2002 only, transfer students who have beencertif ied in low er division General Education by a community college and

    are eligibl e to take upper divisi on GE courses, have the opti on to take thenew upper division synthesis courses or approved courses from theformer Area 2D and Area 5. Starting fall 2002, all students follow ingdegree evaluation sheets of 2001/ 2002 and later must adhere to the newGE program and the new upper division synthesis courses.

    Area A. Communication and Critical Thinking (12 units)

    One course from each sub-area:1. Writ ten Communicat ion (former ly Area 1A)2. Oral Communication (formerly Area 1B)3. Critical Thinking (formerly Area 1C)

    Area B. Mathematics and Natural Sciences (16 units)

    At least one course from each sub-area, including at least one labcourse from sub-area 2 or 3.

    1. M athematics/Quantitative Reasoning (formerly Area 2A)2. Physical Science (formerly Area 2B)3. Biological Science (formerly Area 2C)4. Science and Technology Synthesis (upper division, replaces Area 2D)

    Area C. Humani ties (16 units)

    At least one course from each sub-area.1. Fine and Performing Arts ((formerly Area 3A)2. Philosophy and Civilization (formerly Area 3B)3. Literature and Foreign Language (formerly Area 3C)4. Humanities Synthesis (upper division, replaces Area 5)

    1. U.S. History, Constitution, American Ideals (formerly Area 4)2. History, Economics, and Polit ical Science (formerly Areas 3D and 3F)3. Sociology, Anthropol ogy, Ethnic, and Gender Studies (formerly Area

    3E)4. Social Science Synthesis (upper division, replaces Area 5)

    Area E. Lifelong Understanding and Self- Development (4 units)

    (formerly Area 3G)

    Interdiscipl inary Synthesis Courses

    Interdisciplinary Synthesis courses will be developed for implementationin Fall 2002. Some of those courses may satisfy requirements in one ormore of the following subareas: B4, C4, D4. Students should consultwith their faculty advisor pr ior to enrol l ing in any of theseInterdisciplinary Synthesis courses.

    General Education- Approved Coursew ork

    Courses are approved by the Campus Academic Senate by area t o meetthe university general education program requirements. Coursework ingeneral education should not be t aken wit hout a specific curricular goal.M any degree programs specify w hich university approved courses meettheir more specific degree requirements. Such departments will listapproved courses in their degree curriculum layouts and in their catalogsection. Special Topics courses (those numbered 499) are not eligi ble forGE credit. Students should consult with their departmental degree

    advisors. Undeclared students should consult with the staff of theUniversity Advising Centers.

    Courses listed as a sequence should be taken in order. For example, inthe sequence M AT 114-115, M AT 114 should be completed before takingM AT 115. Each course in the sequence counts as one course tow ardmeeting general education requirements.

    Interdis ciplin ary General Education (IGE)

    The Interdisciplinary General Education (IGE) Program offersundergraduates an integrated approach to f ulf i l l ing their low er-divisiongeneral education requirement s. IGE is one of the longest-li vedinterdisciplinary programs in the California State University and hasreceived national recognition for its work in general education, team-teaching and learning communities.

    IGE provides a communit y wit h a large university. Students w ork andstudy together over an eight-course sequence fulfilling 32 units ofhumanit ies and social sciences general education. M any courses areteam-taught by faculty from complementary fields, providing studentswith an introduct ion to the complexit ies of di f ferent academicdisciplines as wel l as exposure to a variety of teaching styles. The IGEArts Package offers a set of theater, music, and other experiences that

    augment the curriculum and build the community.IGE satisfies area E and major portions of areas A, C and D of the lowerdivision general education requirement s. IGE is open to any student ordepartment wishing to adopt it as an option, and is the preferredprogram for engineering, architecture and liberal studies majors.Applicants must be exempt from or receive a score of 151 or greater onthe English Placement Test (EPT). For more i nformat ion, contact the IGEProgram Director or departmental advisors.

    Transfer and Change of Major Students and General EducationCertification

    Community college t ransfer students and Cal Poly Pomona student s whochange their major should be aware that, many courses on the Cal PolyPomona General Education list are also major department entrance or

    prerequisite requirements and w ill stil l have to be taken to meet degreerequirements. Therefore, even if they may be certif ied by theircommunity colleges as having met all (or most) CSU lower divisiongeneral education requirements, or have met GE requirements prior tochange of major, they may need to take additional courses to satisfyprerequisites for the major. For example, students may have met thequantitative reasoning requirement by taking an algebra course at thecommunity college, or at Cal Poly Pomona, and be so certified. This willnot meet the calculus requirement for engineering, which also meets theCal Poly Pomona GE quantitative reasoning requirement. Calculus willstill have to be taken. Such "excess" coursework will be given as"elective credit." Some transfer students may be certified by theircommunity colleges as having met the CSU General Educationquantitative reasoning requirement with coursework which does notmeet t he Cal Poly Pomona M athemat ics proficiency requirement . Suchstudents will also have to take coursework to meet this graduationrequirement.

    General Education- Course Lists

    Certain professional programs include GE course patterns not listedhere. Students should consult the curriculum of the specific major toidenti fy the exact GE requirement for the m ajor. The symbol (+) indicatesthat a course may be taken on a credit/no credit basis. Please refer tothe corresponding major section in this catalog for prerequisites and adetailed description of general education courses listed below.

    HOW THE IGE PROGRAM MEETS UNIVERSITY REQUIREMENTS

    Engineering students should see an advisor for specific additionalcoursework required by major.

    AREA A Comm unication and Critical Thinking

    ENG 104 (A1) satisfied upon completion of the first-year sequence (IGE120, IGE 121, and IGE 122). Select f rom the new GE list to sati sfy A2 and

    A3 .

    AREA B Mathematic s and Natural Scien ce

    Not satisfied. Select courses from the new GE list as specified by major.

    AREA C Humani ties

    Any two courses (8 units) from the new GE sub-areas C1, C2, or C3satisfied at the end of the first year with the completion of IGE 120, IGE121, and IGE 122. Take the remaining four-unit course from the new GElist. (Example: If "2" and "3" are replaced by IGE courses, then take "1"from the regular list, and so on.) Select from the new GEli st to satisfyC4.

    AREA D Social Sciences

    D1 satisf ied upon completi on of the IGE sequence (IGE 224); D2 and D3satisfied upon completion of the second-year sequence (IGE 220, IGE221, and IGE 222). To satisfy D4, choose from t he new GE list.

    AREA E Lifelong Understandi ng and Self- development

    Area E is satisfied (4 units) upon completion of the IGE sequence (IGE224).

    The universitys American Cultural Perspectives requirement is satisfiedupon complet ion of t he second-year sequence (IGE220, IGE 221, and IGE222).

    INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENCE GENERAL EDUCATION PROGRAM (ISGE)

    Pending final approval by the Academic Senate and the UniversityPresident, this program is intended to satisfy university generaleducation science requirements in Area B. Upon completion of threecourses totaling 16 units, students would satisfy Areas B1, B2, B3 andB4. The ISGE program is a continuous, one-year set of three courses,open to all non-science and non-engineering majors.

    ISGE is an innovative approach to teaching science to nonscientistsusing natural systems processes as interdisciplinary, integrative themes.

    In this course series, students learn the key similarities between manydozens of specific case studies in astronomy, physics, chemistry,geology, biology, computer science, and mathematics, as well asnumerous bridges between the natural and human sciences. Studentsachieve an understanding of the world as one, not as a kaleidoscope offragmented specialties.

    Students have the convenience of using CD-ROM or Internet le ssons athome or in university computer labs for a considerable portion of theirlearning. Two face-to-face discussion, skill-training sessions per weekbalance the technology-based materials. There are no prerequisites forthe ISGE series; the upper division course must be t aken after t he low er-division work is complete.

    AMERICAN CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES REQUIREMENT

    The American Cultural Perspectives Requirement is a graduationrequirement. Courses satisfying this requirement may be part of either astudent's General Education program, major, or minor. These coursesmay also be taken as electives. This requirement w ill not constitute anadditional unit load on the degree requirements of students in anyprogram. This requirement was implemented fall quarter, 1995.

    To satisfy this requirement a student must take at least one four-unitcourse. Courses that meet the American Cultural PerspectivesRequirement should satisfy all of the follow ing criteria:

    Introduce theoret ical perspect ives and nonwestern/nontradit ionalapproaches for studyin g gender, ethnicity, and class.

    Include the study of at least one other marker of social difference, such

    as sexual orientation, religious affi l iation, national origin, etc.Include substantive materials (books/films/lectures/articles/etc.) byand/or about members of at least two of the following socio-culturalgroups: African Americans, Native Americans, Chicano/Latino Americans, Asian Americans, Pacific Islands Americans, M iddle EasternAmericans, and European/white ethnic Americans.

    Address intra-cultural di f ferences as wel l as inter-culturalcommonalit ies betw een groups that collectively represent t he Americanpopulation. The commonalities and differences may be examined byfocusing on diverse cultural practices, environmental ethics, politicalhistories, religious beliefs, or means of artistic expression.
