When Shugla Kakar, a first-generation student, came to the University of Washington Bothell to start a pre-med program, she had a hard time with her schedule. \u201cI had no idea I should have taken my math classes, so I ended up missing my first chem sequence,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Michael Albellar, also a first-generation pre-med student, didn\u2019t know how to merge cocurricular activities with courses. \u201cI didn\u2019t know when to start shadowing and volunteering,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Djelli Berisha was first looking at a college catalog with his mother, they didn\u2019t see when he should take courses \u2014 \u201cno distinct pathways,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From now on, thanks to a series of academic \u201cdegree maps\u201d<\/a> created by advisers in Office of Undergraduate Learning<\/a> in collaboration with faculty across campus, students will have a much better sense of how to complete their degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspiring institutional change<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kakar, Albellar and Berisha are some of the students who wanted to see the entire arc of the academic career ahead of them so that they could compare possible majors and plan cocurricular activities. 足彩app哪个是正规的y needed road maps to 180 credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, as leaders of the Associated 足彩app哪个是正规的s of the University of Washington Bothell, they helped inspire a change in academic planning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

UW Bothell\u2019s new series of degree maps outline a sequence of suggested courses, quarter-by-quarter, for each baccalaureate major.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a really great way for students to be able to navigate their entire college experience,\u201d Berisha said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kakar, ASUWB president, credits Berisha, director of advocacy, and Albellar, senator for advocacy, with continuing work started by two other ASUWB advocacy leaders, Afua Tiwaa and Warisha Soomro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kakar, Tiwaa and Soomro first took their requests to the Office of Undergraduate Learning (also known as the First Year & Pre-major Program). 足彩app哪个是正规的y met with Cinnamon Hillyard, interim associate vice chancellor for undergraduate learning, and Kathy Mitchell, assistant director of undergraduate learning initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To research how best to respond to students, Hillyard and Mitchell convened a working group of faculty, staff and students. Nearly two years and a lot of hard work later, UW Bothell now has a suite of 48 degree maps \u2014 one for each major and concentration \u2014 in the form of PDF documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating degree maps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt took heavy lifting from deans, curriculum people, academic advisers and faculty,\u201d said Hillyard, \u201ccountless hours organizing degrees and getting feedback.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also changed institutional thinking that was often divided between a two-year pre-major and a two-year major framework to envision instead a more organized four-year experience, Hillyard said. \u201cNow people are thinking forward about how to use this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting this winter quarter, when UW Bothell students check Canvas (their course software), they\u2019ll find a tab where they can see all the degree maps for their school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon, the maps also will be visible to the public so prospective high school and transfer students, parents and even high school advisers can download the maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Primarily intended at keeping students on track for their major and graduating on time, the degree maps evolved to include cocurricular activities and how to apply credits earned in advanced high school classes, said Berisha, a sophomore majoring in Biology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being able to see which credits transfer from high school or community college will help students avoid unnecessary courses and focus on what they need for admittance to their major, said Albellar, a junior majoring in Biology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt is our hope that students take advantage of this great resource we now have available. I hope advisers use it as well. It can make everyone\u2019s life easier,\u201d said Kakar, who graduates in June with majors in Health Studies and in Gender, Women & Sexuality Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking to the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 degree maps should reduce anxiety for the nearly 1,700 pre-major students on campus \u2014 about 29% of all students. 足彩app哪个是正规的 maps can help direct them into their majors before their junior year, giving them time to make the most of options and opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt changes how we guide and inform students,\u201d said Mitchell, an experienced adviser who helped design and develop the maps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 degree maps also align with the Guided Pathways initiative of the Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, Mitchell noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Implementing degree maps was a big undertaking \u2014 but worth every meeting, design conversation and pathway negotiation, she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt helps students visualize where they\u2019re going and feel like they belong, that they have a path.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

足彩app哪个是正规的 new academic degree maps will be officially launched at an\u00a0event<\/a>\u00a0from noon to 2 p.m. Jan. 29 in the Activities & Recreation Center.
