Writing Courses

All students are required to take two courses with the writing attribute, also known as “W­courses”, from the department. Substitutions with W­courses from other departments are not allowed. Please see the academic advisor for the most current list of Anthropology W­courses. Minor Requirements

Anthropology majors have the option of selecting a minor field of study from departments or divisions within or outside the College of Liberal Arts or in a particular area of interest (as with interdisciplinary minors or career opportunity minors). Minors typically consist of 15­18 hours or coursework, at least 6 of which must be at the upper­division level. A minor should be declared before the student has completed 90 credit hours. College and University Requirements

Other courses may qualify for this category. Students should consult the approved lists of courses available through the academic advisor in the Department of Anthropology or in the Undergraduate Student Services Office in the College of Liberal Arts. The following list incorporates University Core Curriculum requirements. No course can be counted in more than one category, with the exception of courses used for the International and Cultural Diversity requirement. To promote the opportunity for anthropology majors to acquire a broad educational experience, anthropology students must satisfy their University requirements for language, philosophy and culture, social and behavioral sciences, and the sciences with courses other than those offered by anthropology. Students must complete a minimum of 36 hours of 300­ or 400­level coursework at Texas A&M University.

Background Information The Department of Anthropology is one of 12 departments housed in the College of Liberal Arts. Texas A&M University added a B.A. in Anthropology in 1975. The department currently has approximately 200 anthropology majors. The department proposes to add a B.S. in Anthropology degree program to the existing B.A. in Anthropology. This will position the department in line with the five other social science departments in the College of Liberal Arts (Communication, Economics, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology) that already offer B.A. and B.S. degree options. I. Need A. Job Market Need Anthropology is a STEM discipline that cuts across the social sciences and humanities. During the past decade, the field of Anthropology has become increasingly scientific, not just in its theory and method but also in its practical applications. The development of new technologies and their use in anthropological contexts have created a critical need for scientifically trained professionals with undergraduate as well as graduate degrees. Besides in the traditionally scientific fields of prehistory, paleoecology, and paleoanthropology (where osteological, archaeo-zoological, and archaeo-botanical methods and evolutionary/ecological theories are regularly applied), anthropologists are finding themselves in heightened demand in the forensics, molecular-genetic, medical, conservation, and resource-planning professions, just to name a few. Faculty in the Department of Anthropology at Texas A&M University are predominantly oriented towards the scientific side of the discipline, and are well positioned to provide necessary coursework for students to learn new technical and scientific skills within the discipline. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (May, 2016), professional employment in Anthropology and Archaeology is predicted to rise by 4.4% during the next decade. Texas is ranked among the top five U.S. states with highest employment of anthropologists, and Houston is the top-paying metropolitan area for this occupation. Anthropologists tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics work primarily in (1) scientific research and development, (2) technical consulting, (3) government, and (4) museum contexts. Success in these fields requires strong skills in the ever-increasing repertoire of scientific techniques anthropologists use to research, conserve, and preserve cultural and historical resources. Besides this, an increasing number of Anthropology graduates are pursuing careers in medicine, education, diplomacy and foreign service, law enforcement, business, and corporate business. To keep in step with these disciplinary changes, the Department of Anthropology at Texas A&M University proposes to offer a new Bachelor of Science program in Anthropology. The new B.S. degree will provide Anthropology students with an opportunity to acquire a stronger background in the sciences (by completing university and college core requirements for B.S. degrees) and to master scientific analytical skills in the anthropological discipline, in preparation for relevant professional careers.

B. Student Demand Each year, graduating seniors in Anthropology complete an exit survey as one part of our department’s assessment procedures. The exit survey suggests that some of our majors do not feel prepared to seek employment after graduation. Anecdotal evidence suggests that this is particularly true for students who are interested in relevant careers that place more emphasis on science. While the B.A. continues to be well-suited for undergraduates who plan to pursue graduate study in anthropology, the proposed B.S. will provide an alternative for students who want to pursue careers in science-based fields related to anthropology. Providing a B.S. option in Anthropology will ensure that our graduates can learn the practical skills necessary to enter the workforce in these areas as well as become critically-minded members of society. C. Enrollment Projections We estimate that, once established, approximately 35 students per year will complete the B.S. degree in Anthropology. Currently, about 200 undergraduate students are enrolled in the B.A. program in Anthropology at Texas A&M University. Although some of the students projected to enroll in the B.S. program will come from this population, we anticipate that over time we will see significant growth in total number of majors (combined B.A. and B.S.) as a result of the new program, for two reasons. First, the B.S. will attract students from traditional STEM backgrounds, including transfers who may already be completing the requirements of the B.S. core curriculum. Second, based on enrollment statistics in other departments in the College of Liberal Arts where there are B.A. and B.S. options, B.S. enrollments outpace B.A. enrollments by at least 2:1 (e.g., Psychology: B.S. 1011, B.A. 376; Sociology: B.S. 451, B.A. 215). Of the 13 universities in Texas where undergraduates can major in Anthropology, only four (30%) offer a B.S. option (Baylor, University of Houston, Southern Methodist, and Texas State). At these universities B.S. degree candidates make up a large component of the departments’ majors (e.g. 61% at Baylor, 57% at U. of H., 48% at Texas State, and 32% at SMU). Enrollment projections for the proposed degree program are based on the assumption that juniors and seniors enrolled in the B.A. degree program are likely to complete that degree, yet approximately half of the new majors (e.g. incoming freshmen, incoming transfer students, and internal transfer students) each year (n=25) will elect to complete the B.S. degree. In addition, in the initial years, the new B.S. degree program is likely to attract approximately 10 majors each year who might not have pursued a B.A. in Anthropology (including internal transfers from other B.S. degree programs).

C. Faculty All 25.5 of the Department of Anthropology’s current faculty members will participate in the proposed BS program in Anthropology, many more than the minimum of 3 FTE required by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. Among them are 22.5 FTE tenured/tenure-track professors and 3 FTE academic-professional-track professors, 100% of whom have earned PhD degrees in Anthropology or a related discipline. The expertise of the department’s faculty suitably encompasses Anthropology’s three major sub-disciplines—archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural anthropology. Table 5 lists PhD granting institutions and courses for all faculty members in the Department of Anthropology. Since its founding forty years ago, the department has uniquely emphasized a strength in anthropological science, so that today it is internationally recognized for its strong cores in archaeology, nautical archaeology, and ecological/evolutionary anthropology. Faculty members regularly publish research results in top science journals including Nature, Science, eLife, and Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, as well as a variety of leading disciplinary journals. Eight faculty members hold endowed chairs or professorships, three have been awarded Cornerstone Faculty Fellowships from the College of Liberal Arts, and two have been awarded Ray A. Rothrock ’77 Faculty Fellowships from the College of Liberal Arts. The department also boasts one University Distinguished Professor. Simply put, as regularly identified in independent derived Academic Analytics reports, the department’s strong suit is the research productivity of its faculty. All 25.5 faculty members in Anthropology participate in undergraduate education at Texas A&M University. As a result, during the 2016-2017 academic year, over 82% of the program’s SCH were generated by faculty members with PhD degrees; the remaining percentage was generated by graduate assistants who chiefly taught sections of core courses regularly offered by the department. All (100%) of the Anthropology faculty members at Texas A&M University have terminal PhD degrees. Table 4 lists the degree-granting institutions from which Anthropology faculty earned their PhD degrees; all are accredited institutions, either in the U.S. or the respective country.

The Department of Anthropology also benefits from affiliated faculty, including five anthropologists and archaeologists in other departments at Texas A&M University (two in International Studies; two in Architecture, and one in Recreation, Parks and Tourism Sciences) who regularly teach closely related courses and mentor students. (These faculty, however, will not be teaching courses for this degree and therefore should not be considered Support Faculty.)

* Note: All faculty in the Department of Anthropology regularly teach undergraduate courses that are included as required or elective courses in this proposed degree plan. The portion of time assigned to the program is based on anticipated percent of time teaching B.S. students, relative to teaching students in other programs and performing other duties (i.e. research and service). Course assignments for the majority of faculty listed in the table above will not change. Only four faculty will have revised course assignment and/or administrative responsibilities for this proposed degree plan. This is indicated in parentheses in the column on “% of time assigned to program,” and reflected in the funding tables on p. 9-11 as reallocated funds.

C.1. IMPACT ON OTHER DEPARTMENTS The new program includes one course requirement outside of the Department of Anthropology (STAT 302 or STAT 303). The Department of Statistics has provided their support for the inclusion of this course in the degree program (See attached email).

C.2. IMPACT ON CURRENT TEACHING ASSIGNMENTS All but one of the courses in this program (ANTH 448) are already offered as part of the curriculum for B.A. degree program. Students in the new program will be required to take a larger concentration of courses with a scientific orientation such that several courses that are free electives for students in the B.A. degree program will be prescribed electives for students in the B.S. degree program. Thus, the impact of the new degree program is likely to change the frequency that certain courses are offered. Two courses in particular, ANTH 448 (a new course) and ANTH 458, are likely to be offered more frequently. Faculty who teach these courses (David Carlson, Heather Thakar and Jeff Winking) are likely to teach some of their other regular courses less frequently as a result. Given that their other courses include core courses that are regularly taught by multiple instructors in rotation, or free electives that are offered every few years, the development of this degree program will not significantly impact other programs in the department.

D. Students All students in the program will be students who are admitted into Texas A&M as incoming freshmen or transfer students. The department will provide information to prospective students by participating in recruitment events offered by the college, by creating information for the department website, and by developing promotional materials.

E. Library Given the pre-existence of B.A., M .A. and Ph.D. programs in Anthropology and an M.S. in Maritime Archaeology and Conservation at Texas A&M University, library resources are already very strong and more than sufficient to serve the proposed B.S. program in Anthropology, an assessment shared by Dr. David H. Carlson, Dean of University Libraries (see attached memo). In the last three years alone, the library has added more than 2400 new printed books and hundreds more electronic media in Anthropology, and they maintain a comprehensive list of journal subscriptions in the field.

F. Facilities and Equipment In the Anthropology Building on the main Texas A&M University campus, the Department of Anthropology maintains equipment and dedicated spaces for the training of students in the proposed B.S. program. Besides two well-endowed research centers (Center for the Study of the First Americans, Center for Maritime Archaeology and Conservation) and the closely affiliated Institute of Nautical Archaeology, the department boasts laboratories in ancient genomics, palynology, paleoecology, paleoethnobotany, zooarchaeology, museum studies, stone-artifact technology, geoarchaeology, archaeochemistry, archaeological conservation, ship reconstruction, ship modelling, and New World and Old World nautical archaeology. Also, the department runs a maritime conservation laboratory currently housed at the new RELLIS campus in west Bryan. All of these laboratory facilities are used not just for research but also for instructing students in anthropological/archaeological research methods. The Archaeology and Nautical Archaeology programs also maintain the specialized equipment needed to regularly offer field schools for undergraduate students. In terms of quantitative methods, the department is developing a new course for B.S. majors, to be taught chiefly by Dr. David L. Carlson, who has just published the new book Quantitative Methods in Archaeology Using R, with Cambridge University Press. Through these resources, the Department of Anthropology is well-equipped to offer a BS program.

G. IT Resources The proposed degree program does not require any special IT resources. Faculty in the program are provided with computer workstations from the college. Computers in departmental labs and classrooms are equipped with necessary software for general and specific computing needs of anthropology majors. The department also houses a small computer lab where students may use to work on papers and projects.

H. Supplies and Materials The proposed degree program will not require any supplies and materials above and beyond that absorbed in the department’s annual operating budget.

I. Accreditation The discipline of Anthropology does not have a specific accreditation process or accrediting agency or organization. The department (and its affiliated centers) undergo external review on a regular basis. The department is reviewed through the university’s Academic Program Review procedures. The last Academic Program Review took place in 2013. In addition, each degree program offered by the department is reviewed annually through university assessment procedures which are used to meet requirements for the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) accreditation process.

AGENDA ITEM BRIEFING

Submitted by: Michael K. Young, President Texas A&M University

Subject: Approval of a New Bachelor of Science Degree Program with in a major in Anthropology and Authorization to Request Approval from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board

Proposed Board Action:

Approve the establishment of a new degree program at Texas A&M University (Texas A&M) leading to a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Anthropology, authorize the submission of this degree program to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB) for approval and certify that all applicable THECB criteria have been met.

Background Information:

The Department of Anthropology is one of 12 departments housed in the College of Liberal Arts. Texas A&M added a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Anthropology in 1975. The department currently has approximately 200 anthropology majors. The department proposes to add a B.S. in Anthropology degree program to the existing B.A. in Anthropology.

Anthropology is a STEM discipline that cuts across the social sciences and humanities. During the past decade, the field of Anthropology has become increasingly scientific, not just in its theory and method but also in its practical applications. The development of new technologies and their use in anthropological contexts have created a critical need for scientifically trained professionals with undergraduate as well as graduate degrees. Besides in the traditionally scientific fields of prehistory, paleoecology, and paleoanthropology (where osteological, archaeo-zoological, and archaeo-botanical methods and evolutionary/ecological theories are regularly applied), anthropologists are finding themselves in heightened demand in the forensics, molecular-genetic, medical, conservation, and resource-planning professions, just to name a few. Undergraduate students in Anthropology are tasked with learning an ever-increasing set of new technical and scientific skills, more than can be mastered through a traditional Bachelor of Arts program. The new B.S. degree will provide Anthropology students with an opportunity to acquire a stronger background in the sciences, as a result of completing university and college core requirements for B.S. degrees, and to master scientific analytical skills in the anthropological discipline, in preparation for relevant professional careers.

The B.S. degree differs from the B.A. degree in two important regards: (1) The B.S. degree program requires students to complete different set of core curriculum requirements. They will complete 12 additional hours in the Life and Physical Sciences category and 3 additional hours in Math, while taking fewer hours in Foreign Languages and Language, Philosophy and Culture categories. (2) The B.S. degree program also requires students to complete 6 hours in anthropological methods. Students in the B.A. degree program are not required to take methods-based courses.

A&M System Funding or Other Financial Implications:

There are minimal costs associated with the proposed B.S. in Anthropology, and the new degree program will not require any new faculty hires. The estimated five-year costs for this degree program are $177,459. These costs are exceeded by the estimated five-year revenue of $1,534,812.

Program Review Outline

BACKGROUND & PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Administrative Unit: College of Liberal Arts, Department of Anthropology

Anthropology is the holistic study of humans and other primates. At a general level, scholars who work in this field are united by their interest in understanding human diversity across time and space. The discipline includes the subfields of archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural anthropology. Students who major in anthropology take coursework on cultural diversity, culture change and development, New World archaeology, Old World archaeology, nautical archaeology, human behavioral ecology, primate behavior and conservation, human evolution, and human osteology/bioarchaeology. The proposed Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Anthropology will provide students interested in anthropology with the opportunity to acquire a stronger background in the sciences, by completing university and college core curriculum requirements for B.S. degrees, and to master scientific analytical skills in the discipline of anthropology. In addition to providing a broad training in the field of anthropology, the curriculum includes coursework in anthropological methods and anthropological application of statistics. Students may opt to take a concentration of anthropology electives in one of three subfields: archaeology, biological anthropology, or cultural anthropology.

The program will have five learning objectives: (1) To provide students with a broad-based understanding of basic concepts in three subfields of anthropology (archaeology, biological anthropology, and cultural anthropology). (2) To provide students with the ability to explain anthropological concepts to the lay public. (3) To enhance student understanding of human diversity (past and present). (4) To prepare students to live and work in an increasingly diverse world, by teaching them to understand cultures and environments outside of those in which they were enculturated. (5) To provide students with strong writing skills necessary to communicate about anthropology.

Students will complete a total of 120 SCHs for the B.S. in Anthropology, including 31 SCHs in Anthropology.

The proposed implementation date is August 2018.

Page 1 of 4

Texas A&M University (Texas A&M) certifies that the proposed new degree program meets the criteria under 19 Texas Administrative Code, Section 5.45 in regards to need, quality, financial and faculty resources, standards and costs. New costs during the first five years will not exceed $2 million.

I. NEED

A. Employment Opportunities

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (May, 2016), professional employment in Anthropology and Archaeology is predicted to rise by 4.4% during the next decade. Texas is ranked among the top five U.S. states with highest employment of anthropologists, and Houston is the top-paying metropolitan area for this occupation. Anthropologists tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics work primarily in (1) scientific research and development, (2) technical consulting, (3) government, and (4) museum contexts. Success in these fields requires strong skills in the ever-increasing repertoire of scientific techniques anthropologists use to research, conserve, and preserve cultural and historical resources. Although students with B.A. degrees in Anthropology would be eligible for these jobs, students with B.S. degrees in Anthropology will be in a better position to get these jobs due to their scientific training. Besides this, an increasing number of anthropology graduates are pursuing careers in medicine, education, diplomacy and foreign service, law enforcement, business, and corporate business.

B. Projected Enrollment

Within a five year period, approximately 140 students are likely to be enrolled in this degree program. This enrollment growth includes (but is not limited to) students who might otherwise complete a B.A. in Anthropology.

C. Existing State Programs

The University of Houston and Texas State University are the only public universities in the State of Texas that currently offer a Bachelor of Science degree in Anthropology. Some of the anthropology departments in the State of Texas (including the University of Texas at Austin) emphasize the humanities to a greater extent than the social sciences, and this likely explains why they do not offer a B.S. degree.

II. QUALITY & RESOURCES

A. Faculty

All 25.5 faculty in the Department of Anthropology will be teaching courses for the proposed B.S. degree program. This includes 22.5 FTE tenured/tenure-track faculty members, and 3 FTE academic professional track professors, 100% of whom have earned Ph.D. degrees. No new faculty will be necessary to offer this new degree.

Page 2 of 4

B. Program Administration

The program will be administered by the Department Head of Anthropology, supervised by the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts. The department currently has three support staff, and one academic advisor who is shared with another department in the college. No new staff will be needed for this new program.

C. Other Personnel

The department regularly employs graduate students as Graduate Assistants-Teaching positions. These personnel would assist with the teaching of several courses in the program.

D. Supplies and Materials

The proposed degree program will not require any supplies and materials above and beyond that absorbed in the department’s annual operating budget.

E. Library

The Texas A&M library already maintains a comprehensive list of journal and database subscriptions relevant to the study of anthropology. Existing resources are more than sufficient to serve the proposed B.S. in Anthropology. In the last three years alone, the library has added more than 2400 new printed books and hundreds more electronic media in Anthropology, and they maintain a comprehensive list of journal subscriptions in the field.

F. Equipment and Facilities

The Department of Anthropology occupies its own building on the main campus, and maintains equipment and dedicated spaces for the training of students in the proposed B.S. program. Department facilities include fully equipped labs in ancient genomics, palynology, paleoecology, paleoethnobotany, zooarchaeology, museum studies, stone-artifact technology, geoarchaeology, archaeochemistry, archaeological conservation, and nautical archaeology. Department facilities also include the Conservation Research Laboratory at the RELLIS campus. All of these laboratory facilities are used not just for research but also for instructing students in anthropological/archaeological research methods.

G. Accreditation

The discipline of anthropology does not have a specific accreditation process or accrediting agency or organization. All degree programs, however, are reviewed every seven years through Texas A&M’s academic program review process.
