In the coming school year, University of Washington Bothell students have fresh academic choices: a full degree major in gender, women & sexuality studies (GWSS), a dual campus doctor of pharmacy MBA, a graduate certificate in digital teaching and learning, plus six minors to expand options.

Gender, women & sexuality studies<\/a> is already a strength of the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences where faculty teach courses that cross many other majors. 足彩app哪个是正规的s in GWSS address issues of gender, sexuality and social difference at personal, historical and institutional levels.

Julie Shayne, GWSS faculty coordinator who has been teaching at UW Bothell since 2007, says students regularly asked for a degree in the field.

\u201cIn other words, the degree is enthusiastically anticipated,\u201d says Shayne, editor of the book, \u201cTaking Risks: Feminist Activism and Research in the Americas.\u201d

足彩app哪个是正规的s also will be able to select a new GWSS minor starting in fall of 2016. A launch event, with a program of activities, workshops and speakers, is planned Oct. 26<\/a>.

足彩app哪个是正规的 PharmD-MBA<\/a>, which became available earlier this year, is a collaboration that allows University of Washington pharmacy students to weave University of Washington Bothell MBA courses into their studies and earn two degrees in five years. 足彩app哪个是正规的y gain the skills to manage pharmacies, direct pharmacy operations in health systems or take other leadership positions in health care.

Also new since spring quarter in the School of Educational Studies is a Bachelor of Arts in educational studies with an option for K-8 teacher certification. This fall, pending final approval by the Board of Regents, is a graduate certificate in digital teaching and learning.

Educators will learn to employ new digital tools to create, connect, collaborate and communicate. 足彩app哪个是正规的 15-credit certificate also is offered as a stand-alone, without enrolling in a full graduate degree program.

\u201cWe are committed to closing digital divides and to supporting diverse learners via new tools and pedagogies,\u201d said Jane VanGalen, professor in the School of Educational Studies.

足彩app哪个是正规的 additional minors represent a focus on expanding options and programs of study for students, said Annette Anderson, curriculum development director.

In addition to the GWSS minor in IAS, the new minors and their schools:

\u2022 Economics (winter 2017), School of Business
\u2022 Health studies (fall 2016), School of Nursing and Health Studies
\u2022 Health education promotion (winter 2017), School of Nursing and Health Studies
\u2022 Neuroscience, School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics
\u2022 Chemistry (fall 2016), STEM

Something else that’s relatively new is a dual enrollment nursing program with Everett Community College for students in UW Bothell\u2019s School of Nursing and Health Studies. It\u2019s known as a 1+2+1 program because students take their first year at UW Bothell. For years two and three they go to Everett Community College for the clinical part of the program. 足彩app哪个是正规的n, they return to UW Bothell in the final year to complete their BSN requirements.

\u201cIt is a unique format and it also serves a field that is in high demand in our region,\u201d says Anderson.

Looking ahead, several new majors are in the works, she says. For bachelor degrees:
\u2022 Earth systems sciences
\u2022 Analytics, computational sciences
\u2022 Economics

For master\u2019s degrees:
\u2022 Environmental studies
\u2022 Marketing analytics
\u2022 Management

With the new offerings, UW Bothell is responding not only to student demand but regional demand as well, by leveraging resources and focusing on interdisciplinary studies, Anderson says.

足彩app哪个是正规的 growth in degrees in the past eight years follows the UW Bothell transition to a four-year institution, the surge of students and the addition in 2013 of the School of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics with its high-demand degrees in engineering, Anderson said.

In 2008, there were only 11 degrees offered on a campus with about 1,500 students. UW Bothell now offers 46 degrees, 21 minors and nine certificates.
