We enroll students in 28 different doctoral degrees, with 37 different concentrations offered by 27 different departments and doctoral programs. The University consists of seven colleges and schools, including the College of Community and Public Affairs, the Decker School of Nursing, the Graduate School of Education, the Harpur College of Arts & Sciences, the School of Management, the School of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences (scheduled to accept its first class in August 2017), and the Thomas J. Watson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences. Binghamton has earned a strong reputation for excellence. For the past twenty years, U.S. News and World Report has ranked us among the top 50 public universities in the U.S. The Princeton Review and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance consistently rate Binghamton among the “best values” in public higher education, and Business Week places our School of Management 23rd among business schools at America’s public universities. Binghamton prides itself on excellence, access, and value. We are highly selective, recruiting some of the top students in New York and throughout the world. In the last admissions cycle (2014-15), the University received over 30,000 applications for a freshman class of about 2,600 students. The average SAT for the freshman cohort entering in August 2015 was 1305 and the mean high school average was 95. Although we are highly selective, we provide access to students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. In Fall 2015, 28 percent of our students were Pell eligible, 22.5 percent were the first in their families to attend college, and 16.4 percent were underrepresented minorities. In September 2015, the New York Times Ranked Binghamton 35th among “Top Colleges Doing the Most for Low-Income Students.” (Appendix 1.1) We boast a strong record of student success. Our current first-to-second-year retention rate is over 91 percent. Our four and six-year graduation rates are 71.4 percent and 81 percent, respectively. Students in our Educational Opportunity Program, which is designed to provide access and support for low-income students, have a first-to-second-year retention rate of 94.3 percent and four and six-year graduation rates of 55.2 percent and 77.2 percent, respectively. As a research University, Binghamton offers a wide range of masters and doctoral programs; approximately 20 percent of our students are graduate students. At the masters level, we support a rich portfolio of professional masters programs that lead to the Masters of Social Work, Masters of Public Administration, Masters of Business Administration, MS in Accounting, MS in Nursing, MS in Education, Master of Arts in Teaching, MS in Biomedical Engineering, MS in Systems Science, MS in Industrial and Systems Engineering, MS in Electrical and Computer Engineering, MS in Mechanical Engineering, and MS in Computer Science as well as innovative masters degrees in Sustainable Communities, Health Systems, Biomedical Anthropology, and Public Archaeology. All of our schools support doctoral education leading to the PhD, EdD, DNP, and PharmD (to be offered, beginning in 2017). In 2014-15, Binghamton awarded 139 doctoral degrees, 127 of which were the PhD. Our doctoral 1 graduates enjoy successful careers in academia, education, business, finance, industry, the arts, and health professions. Binghamton is known for pathbreaking research and creative work in the humanities, social sciences, arts, management, education, and human services as well as in mathematics, sciences, and engineering. One measure of our strength is, of course, external funding. Consistent with national trends, research expenditures declined between FY 2011 and FY 2014, as congressionally-directed funding ended, support from the American Recovery and Investment Act concluded, and funding available from federal agencies declined. However, Binghamton’s committed funds increased by 21 percent in FY 2015 and is on pace to grow by another 18 percent in FY 2016. Another measure of our success is the presence of three federally funded research centers: the Northeast Center for Chemical Energy Storage (Department of Energy), the Developmental Exposure Alcohol Research Center (NIH), and the Center for Energy Smart Electronic Systems (NSF). A third is the presence of 21 faculty members in the humanities, social sciences, engineering, sciences, mathematics and management who hold the rank of Distinguished Professor, the highest recognition for research conferred by the State University of New York. A fourth is our innovative Transdiciplinary Areas of Excellence (TAE), which promote cross-disciplinary hiring and research collaboration in such critical areas as energy, health, human rights, sustainable communities, and the material and visual worlds (http://www.binghamton.edu/tae/). Finally, a number of high profile international journals call Binghamton home, including the Journal of Women’s History, Medievalia, Review, and Online Journal of Rural Nursing and Health Care. Consistent with its commitment to excellence in teaching and research, Binghamton has enjoyed success in internationalization. Approximately 1,600 of our undergraduates study abroad, and we have formal partnerships with almost 60 universities in more than 20 countries on five continents. Currently, international students make up more than 16 percent of our enrollment, strengthening the intellectual and cultural life of our campus. Binghamton’s success in internationalization has been recognized with major awards from the Association of Public and Land Grant Universities, the American Council on Education, the Institute for International Education, NAFSA: Association of International Educators, and the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators. As a public research university, Binghamton takes seriously its responsibility to contribute to the economic, educational, and cultural life of the community and the State of New York. Faculty and students make critical contributions to such local arts organizations as the Binghamton Philharmonic and the Tri-Cities Opera as well as local theaters and galleries. Each year, more than 160,000 individuals, many of them community members, enjoy performances, exhibits, and competitions at the Anderson Center for the Arts, University Art Museum, Watters Theater, Events Center, and Bearcat Sports Complex. Almost 3,000 students annually contribute to—and benefit from—the community through internships and practica, many with local governments, schools, social service agencies, non-profits, and firms. Serving as a catalyst for economic development is an especially important part of Binghamton’s mission. We have strong partnerships with industry, generating approximately 10 percent of our external research support from industry. We have 10,300 square feet of incubation space on campus and are the principal partner in the 35,000 square foot Southern Tier High Technology Incubator, currently under construction in downtown Binghamton and scheduled to welcome companies in 2016. Binghamton University President Harvey Stenger serves as co-chair of the Southern Tier Regional Economic Development Council, which coordinates economic development initiatives in the eight counties of our region. In December 2015, the Council was awarded $500 million over the next five years from the state’s Upstate Revitalization Initiative to invest in economic development initiatives—including University-sponsored initiatives such as the Southern Tier Health Science Technology Innovation Park in Johnson City and the Advanced Manufacturing Innovation Center in Endicott—that will create more than 10,000 jobs in the 2 region. The University contributes more than $1 billion annually to the local economy and more than $1.34 billion to the New York state economy. In recognition of our commitment to and success in economic development, we are one of 18 universities recognized by the Association of Public and Land Grant Universities as an Innovation and Economic Prosperity University. Major Developments since Decennial Accreditation There have been a number of significant institutional changes since Binghamton University was awarded its decennial accreditation in 2010: • Dr. Harvey G. Stenger, Jr. became the sixth president of Binghamton University on January 1, 2012. • The University successfully concluded its “Bold,

  • SUNY Micro-Credentialing Implementation
    M E M O R A N D U M January 23, 2018 TO: Members of the Board of Trustees FROM: Kristina M. Johnson, Chancellor SUBJECT: SUNY Micro-Credentialing Implementation Action Requested The proposed resolution commends the SUNY-wide Micro-Credentialing Task Force (“Task Force”) for its report and directs the University Provost to work collaboratively with campuses to develop strategies over the next year to support implementation of the Task Force’s recommendations and to keep the Board apprised of progress. Resolution I recommend that the Board of Trustees adopt the following resolution: Whereas today’s employers are increasingly looking for candidates to not only earn a degree, but also possess detailed and easily accessible credentials that verify skill competencies specific to their hiring needs; and Whereas students are looking for ways to differentiate themselves from other job candidates in an increasingly competitive marketplace, and alumni are looking to gain new skills to advance in their careers and/or complete ongoing professional development; and Whereas colleges and universities are seeking to motivate students toward completion and explore myriad post-secondary learning opportunities through stackable and portable micro- credentials; and Whereas in response to these and other factors, institutions of higher education are increasingly embracing the multi-faceted micro-credential—which may take the form of digital badges, MOOCs, or other micro-awards—to both meet business and industry expectations and motivate and prepare well-rounded

All courses in those numbering rubrics meet the “SCHL280” requirements. Permission of Instructor is REQUIRED for SCHL 280D: Istanbul: Imperial City of Splendors at the Crossroads of East & West CRN 31502 **NOTE: This course includes a trip to Istanbul (additional costs apply). Please seek permission from the instructor NOW, and NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 1. Do not wait until registration opens. For permission, contact: Professor Kent Schull, [email protected]. See the SCHL280D course information in this document for full details. NOTE TO WATSON ENGINEERING MAJORS/MINORS: SCHL280B Interdisciplinary Applied Research and Proof of Concept in Aviation has been approved as an elective in some Watson programs as follows. See the SCHL280B course information in this document for details. Scholars Class Sizes are smaller than in the past, for many reasons. Smaller classes are typically considered an advantage overall, but it will also mean that the courses will fill up faster. This may mean that you will not get your first or even second choice of Scholars courses, so be sure to have contingency plans in case you do not get your preferred choices. Please do not ask to have a seat reserved in a class because the process must be fair to everyone.
