Action Requested:

The Curriculum and Academic Programs Committee recommends University Senate approval of a proposal submitted by the Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College – Division of Teacher Preparation – for the establishment of an undergraduate certificate – Games and Impact

Rationale:

The Certificate in Games and Impact is intended for undergraduates with a desire to become change agents in their current and future areas of interest, study and training. The Certificate provides a solid grounding in the theory, design and use of games as tools for effecting change in education, health, and social justice, among other fields. For this
reason, it is appropriate for students in a wide range of majors, including interested students in design and programming.
