Withdrawal Procedure You may withdraw from courses during the withdrawal period. If you wish to withdraw from all courses in which you are enrolled, you are strongly encouraged to contact a counsellor or advisor before withdrawing. If you registered for your courses via the Student/Faculty Login you may continue to use this service to withdraw from courses. If you registered for Career, Vocational, or Foundation courses via paper Registration/Course Change form, you must submit a Registration/Course Change form to the Registrar's Office in order to withdraw from a course. The instructor's signature is required on all Registration/Course Change forms. A withdrawal ("W") will be noted on the Official Transcript of Academic Record. Post Withdrawal Period Course withdrawals or complete withdrawals are not permitted except for the reasons listed below: 1. 2. 3. The student record is incorrect as the result of an error by the University. The student transfers to a lower level of the same course by instructor request. A completed Registration/Course Change form is required for this request. In this instance, only the final course of enrolment will print on the Official Transcript of Academic Record. A record of the change will also be maintained on the student’s permanent record. Extenuating circumstances, usually for medical reasons. Official documentation is required to substantiate all claims of such circumstances and should be submitted to the Registrar's Office. Withdrawal for Medical Reasons Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. Students who wish to apply for special status under (3) above must submit the Request for Course Withdrawal for Medical Reasons form with a letter explaining the circumstances leading to the withdrawal to the Registrar. This form must be supplemented with official documentation such as a typed letter from a physician, an official copy of an accident report, or official documentation of a family emergency, death certificate, and so forth. If, in the opinion of the Registrar, the request does not fall under (3) above, or the documentation is insufficient to support the request, the request will be denied. If the request is granted, the permanent student record will be annotated as Withdrawal for Extenuating Circumstances (WE). Withdrawal for medical reasons will not be granted for lack of academic performance on the part of the student. Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 17 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Academic Information Withdrawal for Extenuating Circumstances Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. Students who wish to apply for a withdrawal for extenuating circumstances must submit a letter explaining the circumstances leading to withdrawal to the Registrar with official documentation. If, in the opinion of the Registrar, the request does not fall under (3) above, or the documentation is insufficient to support the request, the request will be denied. If the request is granted, the student will be assigned a Withdrawal for Extenuating Circumstances (WE) status for each course in which the extenuating withdrawal is granted. Withdrawal for extenuating circumstances will not be granted for lack of academic performance on the part of the student. Incomplete Grade "I" 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. If the student believes an exceptional circumstance exists which prevents him/her from completing the course during the regular time frame, the student may petition the course instructor for an incomplete ("I") grade. An incomplete ("I") grade may be given where, in the judgement of the instructor, the student should have reasonable expectation of passing the course, but has not completed the required work. An incomplete is assigned only when the instructor and student have arranged for the work to be completed by a specified date within four months of the end of term. If the student does not complete the work by the specified date, the instructor will automatically assign a predetermined grade reflecting the work not completed. If the student completes the work by the specified time, the instructor will assign the final grade. If this incomplete procedure cannot be applied in the opinion of the instructor, the instructor is directed to contact the Registrar directly for resolution of the issue. COURSE OVERLOAD 1. 2. 3. Registration in more than five academic courses or more than the full requirements specified for a career program constitutes a course overload. Students may choose to register for a course overload (up to a total of 21 credits) as long as they have discussed their need or wish for an overload with a counsellor or advisor and the Course Change form bears the counsellor’s or advisor’s signature. Science students, however, are automatically allowed to register for more than 16 credits, as long as the total credits do not exceed 21 credits and registration does not result in more than five courses. Students may not register for a course overload until classes commence. COURSE CHALLENGE Admitted students may request a course challenge whereby an examination for achievement may be awarded for a very specific and limited selection of courses at the institution. Certain courses may not be challenged. Students interested in this procedure should contact their instructor. The regular tuition fee must be paid for a challenged course. A course challenged successfully will be recorded on the permanent student record. Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 18 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Academic Information Note Credit for courses challenged successfully will apply to credentials earned at Capilano University. Students should be aware that other universities and colleges may not grant credit or transfer credit for credit received by course challenge. Graduation Convocation ceremonies are held in the Summer and Fall terms. Credentials are issued only at these two ceremonies.

Applicants are generally considered for admission based on their individual merits according to the admission standards set by the institution, faculty or program. As affirmed by the Council of Ontario Universities (December 7, 2006) "Applicants to provincially assisted universities in Ontario are considered for admission on an individual basis in a process whereby the appropriate range of academic and other relevant evidence is weighed." Students who are interested in further studies after completing degree programs are advised to consult the University's advising service and the institutions to which they are applying about the detailed requirements for admission.

CO-OPERATIVE EDUCATION Co-operative education integrates a period of classroom learning with periods of work experience to enable students to apply their knowledge and skills. Students alternate periods of full-time study with periods of paid and unpaid employment in business, industry, government and non-profit organizations. The goal is to develop high calibre graduates, better able to assume productive jobs. Employers may use co-op students to assist in building a work force that meets the short-term needs of their organization. Students can undertake special projects and provide relief for permanent staff who may be undertaking other tasks. In the longer term, employers have a cost effective means of evaluating potential future employees. The co-op experience provides students with a superior, well-rounded education enriched by the practical application of their skills. They obtain valuable "hands-on" experience and are able to evaluate their career choices. The University receives immediate feedback on the quality and relevance of the program areas and on the quality of the students.

Some part-time spaces are also available. Child care spaces are first offered to children of Capilano University students, then children of employees. Children of community members may be admitted if space is available. The Centre provides a balance of activities that help children to progress in their social, emotional, physical and cognitive development. Through collaboration with parents the Center is able to develop a quality child care community that respects and values the uniqueness and contribution of all children and families. Groups are small and program activities are planned so that children can successfully meet challenges and learn positive ways of interacting with one another. Clear and reasonable limits are set to ensure the safety of each child, the protection of personal rights and protection of property. The daily program includes a regular schedule of indoor and outdoor play, bathroom routines, snack and lunch, rest time and group times. Because the Centre is located on the beautiful North Vancouver campus of Capilano University, occasional group walks are planned. In addition, the Center benefits from the services and facilities of the university including availability of campus health services, campus security, emergency preparedness, and facilities maintenance. The Centre works closely with the Early Childhood Care and Education department. Students in the Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) program at the University are learning to be teachers in child care and other pre-school centres. Because practical experience is an essential part of their education, ECCE students observe and participate in Centre activities to learn how classroom techniques apply to a quality child care program. A limited number of students participate as student assistants for an extended period, working with the staff to provide a program children will enjoy. All student activities are carefully supervised by the staff of the Centre and ECCE instructors, and the needs of the children are always given first consideration. The Centre is open weekdays except statutory holidays.

This preparation will provide students with a more complex knowledge of the world and help them to see, understand and envisage cause and effect relationships in a world where boundaries are disappearing and all aspects of human civilization are interrelated and interconnected. Because the University and the society in which it operates are multicultural and multinational, Capilano University will continue and expand its activities in international education.” (Article 16 of Capilano University’s Mission and Values and Strategic Directions) International education prepares students to work in a multi-cultural and multi-national environment. A more sophisticated university graduate will be needed to understand and live successfully within a more complex world. To this end, the goals for international education may be grouped under the following major headings: • • • • • • Developing Canadian and global perspectives Developing intercultural competence Demonstrating coping and resiliency skills Acquiring basic skills in an additional language or languages Developing the ability to recognize and deconstruct our egocentrism Developing the capacity to accept and learn from ambiguity INTERNATIONAL LINKAGES Formal linkages and International Exchange Agreements have been developed with a number of colleges and universities worldwide including: Australia • • • Flinders University, Adelaide University of Western Sydney, Sydney Griffith University Austria • FH Wien University of Applied Sciences of WKW, Vienna Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 56 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 International Education China • • • North China Institute of Science and Technology, Beijing Zhejiang Gongshang University, Hangzhou Tianjin Polytechnic University, Tianjin Denmark • Denmark International School - DIS, Copenhagen Finland • Arcada Polytechnic, Helsinki France • • • Institute des Hautes Études Économiques et Commerciales Reconnu par L’État INSEEC; Paris, Bordeaux, and Lyon Groupe Sup de Co Amiens Picardie, Amiens École de Management Normandie Germany • Fachhochschule Dusseldorf, Dusseldorf Hungary • University of Pécs, Pécs Japan • • • Aichi Gakusen College; Okazaki, Anjo, and Toyota cities Kushiro Public University of Economics, Kushiro Hokkaido College of Art & Design Mexico • • • • • Tecnologia Turistica Total, Merida Tec de Monterrey, various cities Universidad de Guadalajara, Zapopan, Jalisco Universidad Tecnologica de Tabasco, Tabasco Universidad de Monterrey, San Pedro Garza Garcia The Netherlands • Hogeschool Zeeland, Vlissingen Paraguay • • Universidad Americana, Asuncion Universidad Columbia, Asuncion Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 57 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 International Education Spain • Escuela de Administracion de Empressas, Barcelona Switzerland • • Fachhochschule Zentralschweiz, Lucerne Applied Sciences University of North Western Switzerland, Olten United States • • State University of New York at Plattsburgh University of North Colorado Vietnam • Hanoi Open University, Hanoi Cooperation with these institutions facilitates student and faculty exchanges, permits collaboration on international development projects in other countries, and enables the delivery of Capilano University courses and training in a variety of locales.

Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 64 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Preparatory Programs Preparatory Programs General Information Many students who enter Capilano require preparatory courses to meet entry level requirements for a particular university program, or to upgrade their academic skills from basic literacy to the Provincial Level (regular or adult Dogwood Certificate). Students who have been out of school for a number of years and want to resume their education often find that the Adult Basic Education program best meets their needs. Most courses in the program are self-paced and may be taken on a part-time basis. Full-time students attend classes in which they work up to five hours a day in the classroom with University instructors. In addition, some courses require independent study outside of class. The level of courses in the Adult Basic Education program ranges from Basic Literacy to Provincial (Grade 12) level. Many of the upper-level courses, taken alone or as part of a larger program of studies, will meet entry requirements for university transfer and career/vocational programs. The preparatory courses which are offered by a number of departments at the University are designed to upgrade students who lack course prerequisites for university transfer and career/vocational programs. Many of these courses are taught in two-hour classes that meet twice a week for an academic term (15 weeks). In addition, considerable independent study is required outside of the formal instruction period. Either the Adult Basic Education program or the preparatory courses offered in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences departments may satisfy the student’s upgrading needs. Students should refer to the Adult Basic Education section of the Calendar or contact the program coordinator. For information on other preparatory courses consult the Advising Centre at 604.984.4990 (Birch building, room 238). For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/preparatory Adult Basic Education GENERAL INFORMATION The Adult Basic Education (ABE) Program offers courses that are tuition-free for all students except International students. Please note that all other University fees apply (admission/readmission and 'Incidental Fees'). The Adult Basic Education (ABE) program enables students to upgrade their knowledge of English, mathematics, biology, chemistry, earth sciences, physics, geography, history, social studies and computers. Students may select from one to five subjects, depending upon their educational and occupational goals. Students can pursue any of the following goals: • • • • • • preparation for employment personal desire to upgrade or refresh mastery of a subject secondary school qualifications demanded by employers vocational training (including apprenticeships) career training technical training Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 65 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Preparatory Programs • academic studies (including university and college programs) The program operates year-round, offering instruction in two-hour classes. Both self-paced and term-paced classes are offered. Placement in courses is based on pre-registration assessment of academic background. Many students benefit by enrolling in ABE courses while registered in university transfer or career/vocational programs at the University. Students who need more than four months to complete a course may re-register if they are attending and progress is satisfactory. Students who finish a course before the end of the term may immediately register for the next higher course in the given subject. High enrolment may necessitate limiting students to a maximum of three classes in a subject area.

SARAW classes at Capilano University (North Vancouver and Sunshine Coast campuses) enable students to upgrade their literacy level using computers with assistive, voice synthesized technology. SAM classes enable students to upgrade their basic numeracy skills using the same assistive, voice synthesized technology. Students set goals for each term which are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Some examples of goals set by students are: 1. 2. 3. to learn to read personal correspondence independently to improve the reading and understanding of employment related print material to achieve high school equivalency. Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 90 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Preparatory Programs These goals are personal in nature and represent the individual’s own needs for literacy achievement. The accumulation of individual achievements may lead to formal higher education such as that offered by an Adult Basic Education program.The classes are held over two semesters (Fall and Spring), offering students self-paced instruction in various time slots. Students must attend a minimum of 20 hours per week. Graduates have accomplished this through various combinations of: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. in-lab instruction at the University in-residence instruction in-residence tutorials independent in-residence time independent lab time at the University. Students registered in the class will have a SARAW computer station installed in their residence. SARAW can also be installed into a student’s existing computer, provided it is a compatible system. This system will be on loan from Capilano University to the students for the length of their registration in the class. Students are expected to act in a mature, independent manner regarding decision making, transportation and completion of assignments. Transportation arrangements are the responsibility of the student. Personal Care Support is also the responsibility of the student, but financial support may be available through the University. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/speech ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS Students interested in enrolling in SARAW classes must first arrange an interview with the department. They should be able to demonstrate a firm knowledge of the alphabet and the sounds related to each letter. They should also be able to articulate a goal for literacy upgrading. Students will be asked to produce a short writing sample to identify strengths and weaknesses in reading and writing. Numeracy levels can also be assessed during the interview process. FACULTY D.

List A (Choose all). AHIS 100, AHIS 101, AHIS 106, AHIS 107, AHIS 210, AHIS 211 List B (Choose two). 232 AHIS 104, AHIS 105, AHIS 109, AHIS 215, AHIS 220, AHIS 221, AHIS 231, AHIS The role played by images and objects in constructions and perceptions of reality are both powerful and profound. This art history concentration within the Associate of Arts degree will provide students with a broad knowledge of art history and will cultivate a critical visual awareness with which to view the art and visual culture of both past and present. Because the nature of art history is interdisciplinary, it draws not only from aesthetics and history, but also from religion, philosophy, politics, museum and culture studies, media and film studies, feminism and women's studies, and discourses on technology, thus giving students an understanding of the interconnectedness of cultural expressions that will be of value whether they enter the work force or continue on in academic studies. The course requirements for this concentration include two first year chronological surveys, one that emphasizes the western European perspective and the other the art of the Americas, Africa, India, China, and Japan. This is in addition to the second year offering of a critical approach to the study of art in Europe and North America from the Enlightenment to the 21st century. Electives range in the first year from courses in the Introduction to Visual Culture to Women and Art, and in the second year, from the History of Textiles to Italian Renaissance Art and the Art of Technology. Apply to the Registrar's Office to have the concentration in art history added to your Associate of Arts Degree at the time of graduation.

Proceeding from the idea that good writing is produced at the intersection of expansive reading, informed critical thinking, and participation in a vibrant writing community, the Associate of Arts degree in Creative Writing combines instruction and practice in both creative and critical writing, hosts a literary readings series, supports a student magazine (The Liar), and provides internships, scholarships, bursaries, and awards. Students in the first year of the concentration work in several genres (poetry, fiction, drama, screenwriting, mixed-genre, and new media). At the second-year level, students are expected to focus on poetry, fiction and/or children's literature. Students at all levels are encouraged to develop their work to the point where it would become acceptable for publication. While the Associate of Arts degree in Creative Writing is designed to stand on its own, students who complete the program will obtain first and second-year transfer credit in both English and Creative Writing, allowing them to major or minor in either subject should they decide to transfer to another university.

Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 135 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Arts & Sciences The rapid introduction of new technologies is making us rethink how we communicate and share knowledge. What impact does this have on society? How is it reshaping our economies, citizenship, politics, communication, language, education, arts and culture?

ECON 100 is an introductory course which raises and explores the kinds of issues that economists deal with. It therefore serves both as a survey course for those students planning to major in other areas of the social sciences and as an introduction to the discipline for those who are undecided about their future plans. Students who plan to major in economics must complete ECON 111 and 112 before proceeding to second year courses at Capilano or other universities. Students who plan to major in economics at SFU are also advised to complete their second year economics requirements from ECON 210, 211, 212, 250, 252, 255, 290 or 291. ECON 250 and 252 are designed both for students majoring in economics and for other second year social science students who need economic history courses to complement their studies, e.g. political studies. Students who plan to enter the Commerce program must take ECON 111 and 112 in their first year.

Preparatory MATH 091 is a one credit course designed for students who need to refresh basic algebra. It serves as a prerequisite for MATH 096 (Intermediate Algebra with Functions), MATH 101 (Introduction to Statistics), and MATH 190 (Mathematics for Elementary School Teachers). MATH 096 is a two credit Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 173 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Arts & Sciences course that continues the development of algebra and introduces the concept of a function. It is possible to complete both MATH 091 and 096 in a single term. The combined MATH 091/096 is equivalent to Principles of Math 11. 2. Precalculus MATH 107 is a precalculus course specifically designed for students planning to pursue a business or commerce program, whereas MATH 105 focuses more on scientific applications. Although each of MATH 105 and 107 is recognized by post secondary institutions as a Principles of Math 12 equivalent, it is common for students even with Principles of Math 12 completion to take one of these precalculus courses in preparation for calculus. Both 105 and 107 receive individual transfer credit at SFU, UVic and UNBC. 3. Calculus I MATH 108 is a calculus course designed primarily for students planning to pursue a business or commerce program, whereas MATH 116 is oriented to the sciences. As enrolment permits, separate engineering, life science and physical science streams of MATH 116 will be offered with each stream covering the same core content but emphasizing examples relevant to the associated applications area. 4. Introductory Statistics MATH 101 is an introductory statistics course designed primarily for non-science students wanting to fulfil a science elective requirement. MATH 204 is an introductory statistics course designed primarily for science students who have already completed one term of calculus. 5. Discrete Mathematics MATH 124 is a discrete mathematics course for computing science. A strong mathematics background is recommended for students taking this as an entry course. 6. Mathematics for Elementary Teachers MATH 190 is a course designed for future elementary school teachers. This course is intended to transfer to SFU's MATH 190 and to many post secondary education programs. This course is not normally available for credit to students in science programs. MATH PLACEMENT TESTS (MPT) The Mathematics and Statistics department offers placement tests as alternative admission instruments for students who lack the prerequisites listed in the Prerequisite Table for entry courses. For each placement test there is a study guide which provides suggested review material and lists the scheduled test dates. With the exception of the placement test for admission into MATH 091 students are not allowed to rewrite the same level of placement test within a twelve month period. The waiting period to rewrite the placement test for entry into MATH 091 is one month or longer. For more information please contact the Advising Centre or the Pure and Applied Sciences Division, or visit the Mathematics and Statistics department website at www.capilanou.ca/programs/math Students wanting to enrol in an entry level course listed in the table must write a placement test if they do not satisfy the prerequisite requirements for the course. Students with prerequisites that are more than twelve months old are strongly advised to write the MPT and to follow its placement recommendation.

So philosophy means 'love of wisdom.' Philosophy courses are about the ultimate nature of things, including knowledge, reality, reasoning, the human mind, religious belief, truth, free will, human nature, democracy, as well as ethical issues in biology, medicine, law, politics, and the environment. The Philosophy department at Capilano University offers a wide range of first and second year arts and sciences courses introducing students to most of these issues. Philosophy is the activity of creating thoughtful answers to many of our most important questions. Philosophy is excellent preparation for any profession, but the most important reason for studying philosophy is to satisfy human curiosity about fundamental problems concerning the nature of reality and how we ought to live. As Socrates said, "The unexamined life is not worth living."

ASSOCIATE OF ARTS DEGREE - APPLIED ETHICS CONCENTRATION To qualified for an Applied Ethics Concentration, students must complete an Associate of Arts Degree, including all six courses from List A below, and at least two courses from List B. List A (Choose all). PHIL 101, PHIL 102, PHIL 110, PHIL 207, PHIL 208, PHIL 209. List B (Choose two). PHIL 117, PHIL 120, PHIL 141, PHIL 150, PHIL 151, PHIL 200, PHIL 201, PHIL 220, PHIL 221, PHIL 222, PHIL 240, PHIL 242. The concentration in applied ethics within the Associate of Arts degree gives students a credential in a practical sub-discipline of philosophy. Biomedical ethics, environmental ethics, and business ethics form the core of applied ethics, and all have recently become important interdisciplinary specialities in their own right. Each area is concerned with inquiring into what we ought to do from an "all things considered" point of view. The requirements for this concentration include courses in all three areas, and other philosophy courses such as Introductory Ethics and Critical Thinking. The electives range from political philosophy to studies in human nature, gender relations, criminal justice, the philosophy of religion, the philosophy of culture, and the analysis of ethical issues in literature. They all throw light on the many ethical dimensions of our lives. The Philosophy Department at Capilano University has several talented ethicists and moral philosophers among its faculty. Apply to the Registrar's Office to have the concentration in applied ethics added to your Associate of Arts degree at the time of graduation.

So, too, those hoping to bring about change in their own communities in such areas as health, education and the environment, choose politics as their vocation. That’s because political studies is concerned with power — what it is and who gets it, how it is used and how it is abused. Along with understanding power and the role it plays locally, nationally, and internationally, political studies students graduate with excellent research skills and effective oral and written communication skills — all very much in demand in the new global economy.

Students can apply what they learn about parenting, interpersonal skills, problem solving, stress management and emotional intelligence to their lives and their work. Psychology courses also help students think critically about social issues and the claims of pop psychology. Courses in psychology are required for careers in many occupations including teaching, child-care, health care, and business. As most of our second year courses are offered only once a year, students who wish to major in psychology should be aware of the various first and second year course requirements of SFU, UBC, or other transfer institutions, so they can take the courses they need for entry into third year at other universities. Talk to any of our faculty about career options, our course offerings, and/or transferability, or see our website for further information: www.capilanou.ca/programs/psychology TRANSFER CREDIT Psychology courses at Capilano transfer to SFU, UBC, UNBC, and UVic.

The Business Fundamentals program has been designed for students who require basic business skills training or who need to upgrade their skills.

This program provides students with the opportunity to gain knowledge and develop competencies in such areas as music therapy and practice; clinical disorders; assessment, planning and intervention; improvisation Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 362 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Health & Education and music of many eras and cultures; interpersonal skills and group dynamics; basic research, and documentation. The program blends academic and experiential course work. Students deepen their experience of music, creative expression and the role of the arts. They are encouraged to explore their values, beliefs, feelings and communication patterns, to increase their effectiveness in the field. They have field work in a different setting for each of the four terms, in which they are given increasing responsibility to design, implement and evaluate their own treatment programs, under clinical supervision. Continuance in the Music Therapy program will be contingent upon an adequate level of personal, academic and clinical skills as jointly evaluated each term by the Music Therapy faculty. Music therapy is a helping profession in which music therapists work with clients who are in a state of disability. In the therapist/client relationship, there is an assumption that the therapist is in a well enough state of health and well-being to mediate client difficulties with an appropriate clinical approach. In other words, the therapist must function in clinically suitable ways, be emotionally stable and able to respond generally vis-a-vis the client’s needs. The therapist is the helper. The role of the Music Therapy program, in addition to student education, is to safeguard the standards of practice of the professional music therapy community through monitoring student readiness to work with members of the community-at-large who are at risk because of disability, disease, cultural and social deprivation, and otherwise disadvantaged. Safety of clients is essential. Music therapists use the creative process inherent in musical participation to assist individuals and groups to improve their mental, physical and emotional functioning. Music therapists work with deep emotions in special therapeutic programs, run exercise and dance programs, lead choirs, instrumental ensembles and music appreciation groups as they contribute to therapeutic goals. Music therapy is increasingly identified by health care professionals as an effective catalyst for client motivation, stimulation and communication.

The program is a response to the expanding demand for trained professionals in all areas of the Aboriginal production industry. The industry is growing and so are the opportunities for creative, committed and skilled producers, writers, directors and technicians. The Indigenous Independent Digital Filmmaking program is committed to providing Aboriginal students with high-quality production training from the Aboriginal perspective. Instructors are experienced, connected and respected Aboriginal professionals working in the industry. Students participating in the program come from all areas of the country. Through a combination of lectures, hands-on instruction, and production projects, students receive instruction and practical experience in all aspects of the film and television production process, from initial concept to finished production. All aspects of the program are related to Aboriginal production. In addition to lectures, hands-on instruction and project work, students have the opportunity to participate in a four-week work practicum. This enables students to obtain on-the-job experience in the professional production environment and make connections with industry experts and potential employers. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/indigenous-digital-film. Career Opportunities Career opportunities in all areas within the Aboriginal production sector are expanding. The creation of the Aboriginal People's Television Network (APTN) established a national network for Aboriginal people. The Canadian feature film industry has also grown rapidly. This industry development has greatly expanded the opportunities for Aboriginal people to build careers in the film and television industries. Most opportunities involve contract employment. While there are staff production positions with broadcasters and production companies, the major opportunities are in the field of independent production. Employment is typically by contract for a specific production or series. Graduates of the program have obtained positions as production assistants, camera assistants, camera operators, editing assistants, editors, writers, and production managers. Some graduates are self-employed, developing and producing their own productions. Admission Requirements • • BC Secondary School Graduation (Grade 12) or equivalent OR Mature Student status.

The program is a response to the expanding demand for trained professionals in all areas of the Aboriginal production industry. The industry is growing and so are the opportunities for creative, committed and skilled producers, writers, directors and technicians. The Indigenous Independent Digital Filmmaking program is committed to providing Aboriginal Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 428 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts students with high-quality production training from the Aboriginal perspective. Instructors are experienced, connected and respected Aboriginal professionals working in the industry. Students participating in the program come from all areas of the country. Through a combination of lectures, hands-on instruction, and production projects, students receive instruction and practical experience in all aspects of the film and television production process, from initial concept to finished production. All aspects of the program are related to Aboriginal production. In addition to lectures, hands-on instruction and project work, students have the opportunity to participate in a four-week work practicum. This enables students to obtain on-the-job experience in the professional production environment and make connections with industry experts and potential employers. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/indigenous-digital-film Career Opportunities Career opportunities in all areas within the Aboriginal production sector are expanding. The creation of the Aboriginal People's Television Network (APTN) established a national network for Aboriginal people. The Canadian feature film industry has also grown rapidly. This industry development has greatly expanded the opportunities for Aboriginal people to build careers in the film and television industries. Most opportunities involve contract employment. While there are staff production positions with broadcasters and production companies, the major opportunities are in the field of independent production. Employment is typically by contract for a specific production or series. Graduates of the program have obtained positions as production assistants, camera assistants, camera operators, editing assistants, editors, writers, and production managers. Some graduates are self-employed, developing and producing their own productions.

The University also offers a four-year Bachelor of Music Therapy and a two-year university transfer program in classical music. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/jazz-studies Mission and Goals The Bachelor of Music (Jazz Studies) provides a broad-based academic background, while developing comprehensive abilities in music, with jazz as the main focus. In keeping with the eclectic nature of jazz, students are exposed to music from diverse cultural sources, historical periods and media. Because jazz is an applied art form, the achievement of specific high standards in vocal and/or instrumental performance, improvisation, composition, and arranging are fundamental goals of the program curriculum, and demonstration of ability in these areas is required of all graduates. Teaching music within the public school system will be a goal for some graduates; to this end, the Jazz Studies program includes all the necessary prerequisites for acceptance into the fifth year Teacher Education Program at the University of British Columbia. While most Jazz Studies graduates who do not enter the public school system as teachers embark upon creative and varied careers as self-employed professionals, the Bachelor of Music (Jazz Studies) also qualifies its graduates who wish to teach at the college or university level for some post-graduate degrees. Since 1995, some graduates from the Jazz Studies program have been admitted into graduate programs at Canadian and American universities in the areas of composition, education, conducting and performance. Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 435 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts Career Opportunities The two-year Diploma program is intended to provide its students with the skills necessary to develop careers as self-employed professional musicians. The four-year Bachelor of Music (Jazz Studies) balances and integrates the instruction of jazz, traditional music, and general academic electives to provide a highly detailed and rich artistic education. For those who wish to pursue music as self-employed professionals, teach music in the public school system, or continue their musical development as part of a liberal arts education, it is a unique and attractive option. Increasingly, graduates are building varied careers in music and related fields based upon a successful layering of skills; for example, some are following up the Jazz Studies degree with the Advanced Arts and Entertainment Management Certificate program (also offered at Capilano University), specialized training in business or technology relevant to the commercial music industry, or post-graduate music degrees; many others upon leaving Capilano University launch directly into a creative combination of teaching, performing with a number of different ensembles in various jazz and contemporary styles, managing their own careers and those of fellow artists, composing, arranging, editing and working with music software. Major Streams in the Third and Fourth Years The four years of study required for the Bachelor of Music (Jazz Studies) are offered at Capilano University. Following completion of the Jazz Studies two-year Diploma program, students choose from five overlapping major streams for the remainder of the degree: Instrumental or Vocal Performance, General Studies, General Studies (Education Stream), and Composition/Arranging. These five streams share a core curriculum, but differ in the proportion of large and small ensembles, private lessons, improvisation, music and academic electives required for graduation. Students from other post-secondary jazz programs are welcome to apply to the Jazz Studies program (see Transfer of Credit in this section of the Calendar). Facilities As recording experience has become an essential part of today’s musical training, the Jazz Studies program has integrated multi-track recording into the curriculum. Vocal, instrumental, and arranging/composition students all make use of our multi-track facilities. A computer lab is available to students for supplemental help in ear training, sight-reading, and other basic music skills, as well as the printing and recording of theory and arranging assignments. Faculty The Jazz Studies department is comprised of a wide range of specialized faculty members. Most instructors are also top professional musicians who bring extensive practical experience to their classes. Transfer Credit The Jazz Studies program grants transfer credit for courses taken at other post-secondary institutions if they have suitable equivalency. Because of the wide variations that exist in approach and emphasis in music programs, the Jazz Studies program reserves the right to examine for competency according to our course requirements before transfer credit is approved. Transfer of concentration performance instrument courses, keyboard and ear training credits will be possible only up to the placement level determined by the audition and by keyboard and ear training test results. Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 436 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts Transfer Between Undergraduate Programs While no formal articulation agreements are in place between Capilano University's Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies program and other undergraduate jazz diploma and degree programs, Capilano University has accepted applications for transfer into its Bachelor of Music (Jazz Studies) from other B.C. post secondary institutions, including Vancouver Island University, Vancouver Community College, Kwantlen Polytechnic University and Selkirk College. In addition, students have transferred from the jazz programs at Alberta's Mount Royal College, Grant MacEwan Community College and Keyano College, to complete the four-year program at Capilano University. Across Canada, Capilano University has accepted transfer students from the classical music programs at the University of British Columbia, University of Alberta, Concordia College, and the University of Regina, as well as from the jazz programs at St. Francis Xavier (Antigonish, N.S.) and Humber College in Ontario. Outside of Canada, Berklee College of Music (Boston, U.S.) has been another source of transfer students to Jazz Studies at Capilano University. A small number of students have transferred from music schools abroad, including the University of the Philippines, Middlesex University (UK), and the George Ots Talinn Musical School in Estonia. Satisfactory Standing Students considered to be in Satisfactory Standing are entitled to pre-register in the next term of the program. A student who has not maintained a satisfactory standing in a program in any term may be denied permission to register in that program in a subsequent term, or be required to re-audition. To maintain satisfactory standing, all Jazz Studies students must be enrolled in a full-time course of study (at least nine credit hours) that includes a reasonable number of courses specific to their major (normally three) and must achieve a grade point average above 1.8. Students should refer to Academic Policies and Procedures for further information on Academic Probation. In addition, to qualify and continue in the specialized majors, Jazz Studies Degree students are expected to achieve a minimum grade of B+ in all courses directly related to that major. These courses are the following: Arranging/Composition • • • • Concentration PMI (Composition) All required Theory courses Arranging I, II, III, IV Rhythm Section Writing Instrumental Performance • • • • • Concentration PPMI Improvisation I, II, III, IV All Small Ensembles All Large Instrumental Ensembles JAZZ 284 and 285 Vocal Performance • Concentration PPMI Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 437 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts • • • • • • Improvisation I, II Vocal Master Class I, II Vocal Improvisation I, II, III, IV Vocal Jazz Master Class I, II, III, IV All Vocal Ensembles JAZZ 284 and 285 C grades (C-, C, C+) in these courses can be applied for credit toward the Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies only with the permission of the Jazz Studies Grade Appeals Committee. When unusual circumstances have resulted in lower than expected grades in a student’s first term of a continuing course, instructors may recommend to the Committee that the student be given probationary acceptance into the next term of the course. If the student fails to achieve a minimum of B+ in the next level of the course, no credit for either course can be applied toward the specialized degree. HOW TO APPLY Apply for Admission/Readmission online or by downloading and completing an application form. Completed applications must be accompanied by the appropriate application fee, document evaluation fee (where required), official transcripts and other pertinent documents, and should be submitted to: Registrar's Office Capilano University, Birch building, room 230 2055 Purcell Way, North Vancouver, B.C. V7J 3H5 Phone: 604.984.4900 Fax: 604.984.1798 Information for Prospective Students Information meetings, auditions and placement tests are held in May. Please call 604.984.4951 for meeting times and audition appointments. AUDITIONS Auditions are required for all entrants. Live audition and testing is preferred. Contact the Jazz Studies program for an audition appointment. Audition requirements are available on the Jazz program's website at www.capilanou.ca/jazz-studies Entrance into the Jazz Studies program is competitive, as seats are restricted. Applicants are ranked in comparison with others who audition on the same concentration instrument in that year. Providing that all other entrance requirements have been passed, students will be admitted in the order of their ranking until the seats available for that instrument have been filled. Separate auditions are held for the Capilano University Singers, Jazz Choirs, and Jazz Bands. Acceptance into the program does not guarantee acceptance into these ensembles. It is the student’s responsibility to sign up for and attend these auditions. ADMISSION/APPLICATION NOTES Upon completion of the two-year Diploma in Jazz Studies, a student may register as a third-year student in one of the degree options. Permission to enrol in any major will be based on completion of prerequisite requirements, and the recommendation of the faculty concerned. Continuation in the Vocal Performance, Instrumental Performance and Arranging/Composition majors is subject to review at the end of the third year of studies. Students may be accepted into some upper level courses before the completion of their Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 438 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts diploma on a part-time or probationary basis with the permission of the instructors involved, but official acceptance into the degree program is necessary before any opportunity to graduate should be anticipated. Transfer students should not anticipate immediate acceptance into the third year of the degree program, as there are normally some lower level music courses and/or general electives that must be completed before this can take place. Official acceptance into a major of the degree program can be applied for once the requirements for the two-year Jazz Studies diploma have been met. (See Graduation Requirements, Two-Year Diploma.)

Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 446 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts Ensemble Requirements All large jazz ensembles, regardless of the actual number of weekly hours of attendance required, have an assigned unit value of one credit. Similarly, only one credit per term of any traditional (ENSM) ensemble may be applied of the Jazz Studies diploma or degree. A term profile requiring two credit hours of ensemble is met by enrolment in two separate ensembles. Students terminating in the two-year diploma program may meet their ensemble requirements through the completion of any four ensemble courses. Students enrolled in the four year Jazz Studies degree program are required to complete a combination of traditional and jazz ensembles to complete their requirements. The required combinations are as follows: Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies Ensemble Requirements For all instruments other than percussion, eight large ensemble credits, including two terms of traditional ensembles met by enrolment in the Capilano University Community Choir, the Capilano Singers, or the Capilano University Wind Ensemble. Four terms of jazz ensemble, including Jazz Ensemble (ENSJ 135 and up), Jazz Choir (ENSJ 105 and up), Guitar/Bass Ensemble (ENSJ 220 and up) and Percussion Ensemble (ENSJ 140 and up). Two additional terms of ensembles: for instrumentalists these may be jazz or traditional ensembles, for vocalists these will be ENSJ 306 and 356. In addition to the above, percussionists must participate in at least four terms of percussion ensemble, three of which may replace JAZZ 282 and 283 (Improvisation I and II) bringing their total number of ensembles up to a minimum of 11. Arranging/Composition Ensemble Requirements Eight large ensemble credits, including: two terms of traditional ensembles, four terms of jazz ensembles, and two additional terms of either jazz or traditional ensembles. (See Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies Ensemble Requirements for lists of appropriate traditional and jazz ensembles.) Education Stream Ensemble Requirements For all instruments other than percussion, eight large ensemble credits, including: Instrumentalists: Four terms each of traditional and jazz ensembles. Vocalists: Two terms of traditional ensembles, two terms of vocal jazz ensembles (ENSJ 306 and 356) and four terms of jazz ensembles. (See Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies Ensemble Requirements for lists of appropriate traditional and jazz ensembles.) Instrumental Performance Ensemble Requirements For all majors other than percussion, twelve large ensemble credits, including the following: • Two terms of traditional ensembles. These can be met by enrolment in the Capilano University Festival Chorus, the Capilano Singers or the Capilano University Wind Ensemble. • Eight terms of jazz ensemble including Jazz Ensemble (ENSJ 135 and up), Jazz Choir (ENSJ 105 and up), Instrumental Ensemble (ENSJ 136 and up) and Guitar/Bass Ensemble (ENSJ 220 and up).

Piano, guitar and bass performance majors can sometimes substitute other courses to complete their ensemble requirements. This is done through special arrangement with the coordinator of the program. Percussion students are expected to complete two terms of traditional ensemble, four terms of jazz ensemble (other than percussion ensemble), and eight terms of percussion ensemble, for a total of fourteen ensemble credits. Three of these percussion ensembles can replace the normal improvisation requirement (JAZZ 282/283). Percussion students wishing to take JAZZ 282/283 must gain permission of both instructors to audition.

Other art programs in this Calendar include Textile Arts, Illustration/Design: Elements and Applications (IDEA), and Commercial Animation. GENERAL INFORMATION Studio Art offers a program of studies leading to a two-year diploma. Studio Art has a limited number of openings in many of its courses for part-time study and in advanced ceramics. It also offers individual credit courses in Art Institute advanced studies. See Art Institute in this Calendar. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/studio-art Program Overview The Studio Art diploma program at Capilano University provides a thorough, high quality foundation in the fundamentals of art. It enables students to make informed decisions regarding future career choices and enables them to prepare high quality portfolios to aid them in gaining acceptance into the advanced art and design programs of their choice. Graduates of the Studio Art program usually complete their education at university, art school or in a university design program. The Studio Art program provides studio experiences in 2-D studies, 3-D studies, and drawing as well as courses in visual literacy/art history, and English. Through exposure to a broad range of concepts, materials, techniques, and processes, students are assisted in developing personal interests, directions, and creative maturity. The emphasis of the program is on preparing students to function effectively within the context of current thought and practice within the fine arts, while preparing them for further studies in art and design-related fields. Because the program also Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 477 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts exposes students to creative thinking and problem-solving, it may also serve as a foundation for further general education. Career and Educational Opportunities The fields of further study listed below lead to specific career or job opportunities. It is recommended that an education in these specific careers should follow a high quality broad art foundation such as that offered by Studio Art. Students may find they need to study out of the province to pursue these educational goals. FINE ARTS: GALLERIES AND MUSEUMS: INDUSTRY: CRAFTS: ILLUSTRATOR: ARCHITECTURE: EDUCATION: sculptor, printmaker, painter, ceramic artist, media artist curator, restorer, illustrator industrial, interior, furniture designer ceramic, textile, jewellery artist fashion, medical, advertising, publishing model maker, renderer, restorer instructor, art therapist, consultant Students who study full-time or part-time and acquire either a Diploma in Studio Art or a Diploma in Academic Studies (including art courses) should find that educational opportunities exist in these and other fields. STUDIO ART COURSES Studio Art courses may be credited toward either a Diploma in Studio Art, a Diploma in Academic Studies or a Diploma in General Studies, depending on the student’s educational objectives. For diplomas other than Studio Art, see the Graduation section in this Calendar. Students taking Studio Art courses must be available for the labs attached to Ceramics, Sculpture, Printmaking and Media Art which take place on the afternoon of scheduled classes. Students must ensure that courses taken outside of Studio Art will not conflict with these labs. The department encourages students to take both terms of any given discipline (i.e. both Drawing I and II) in the interests of effective university transfer status. Open Courses Academic students can register for a few studio art courses during their own registration period when space permits, and if any prerequisites are met. The courses that are open to academic students are: Drawing I through IV, SART 110 and 111, painting. Other courses may be opened if space permits and with the permission of the instructor. In these cases, students do not have to go through the usual portfolio process for full and part-time admittance to the program. University Transfer Many Studio Art courses are university transferable to other B.C. institutions, as well as institutions outside the province. Please refer to the B.C. Transfer Guide online at www.bctransferguide.ca for more information. Acceptance into Second Year Courses Due to space limitations in the second year, completion of first-year courses does not guarantee acceptance into individual second-year courses. When more students require a course than space allows, acceptance in the course will be based on the grades received in the prerequisite course.

In addition to completed work, sketchbooks, and CDs or videos, preliminary studies should be included wherever possible. Slides, photographs or any other supporting evidence may also form part of the portfolio. It is not necessary for prospective students to mount work for the portfolio, since the quality of work is more important than the presentation.

All applicants will be mailed a questionnaire for completion which should be brought with their portfolio to the information session.

Other art programs in this Calendar include Studio Art, Illustration / Design: Elements and Applications (IDEA), and Commercial Animation. GENERAL INFORMATION The Textile Arts program offers a full-time, two-year program leading to a Diploma. It also offers a one-year Advanced Textile Arts Certificate program. For program information and faculty and student gallery please visit our website www.capilanou.ca/programs/textile-arts. Occasional part-time evening courses are also offered. For non-credit courses in Textile Arts, please contact Continuing Education at 604.984.4901. Textile Arts makes art, craft, and functional work with and from textiles. Within an environment that is challenging, dynamic, and creative, students gain a thorough grounding in all aspects of Textile Arts. Valuing a balance of creative experimentation, technical process, academic learning, and critical skills within a professional context, the Textile Arts Department enables students to achieve the widest possible skill base in preparation for their active involvement within this diverse field. The Programs Students learn about textile arts by exploring many different processes. Projects reflect a wide range of approaches, from sculptures and wall pieces to wearable garments and textiles for the home. Textiles have a rich and varied history and reflect these diverse cultural practices. This is reflected in historical textiles and by contemporary artists around the world.Today, Textile Arts and other craft media represent a response to computer technologies and global production. This can take many forms, from a renewed interest in hand Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 482 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts and local production to an awareness of recycling or using materials responsibly, as well as web-based knitting bees and expermenting with computer technologies in weaving, sewing, and printing. The core content of weaving and textile surface design is complemented by courses in drawing, design, 3D mixed media, visual literacy, communications and textile history. Courses as "Professional and Business Skills in Arts and Crafts" and "Precision Dyeing" provide students with information and hands-on experience that facilitates entering a professional career. A critical and analytical approach to their own work will enable graduates to be proficient in a range of professional activities. Gallery and studio visits, as well as guest lectures by visiting artists and other professionals working in textiles or related areas, augment classes. They show distinct approaches to an artist’s work and also provide practical information on how careers are built. Field experience with artists, crafts people, related businesses or organizations are included as part of the course in Professional and Business Skills. They provide a useful work experience for students in the Textile Arts program. For more information, please see www.capilanou.ca/programs/textile-arts Career Opportunities Past graduates are working professionally as artists, crafts people, or designers in fashion or interior design. Some graduates have found employment in film or theatre productions or work for arts organizations or related businesses. The Textile Arts program can also be a stepping stone toward further studies in degree granting programs. Previous students have transferred to institutions across Canada and the USA to pursue studies in visual arts, design, fashion, textile conservation and aboriginal arts. Options also exist to combine textile arts with studies in academic areas such as anthropology and art history. Textile arts form an important aspect of the cultural life in any community and many ways exist to apply the skills learned and build a professional career. Transfer Credits Check the online B.C. Transfer Guide at www.bctransferguide.ca for course transferability or contact the School of Visual and Performing Arts for more specific information. Many students have successfully transferred credits towards BFA degrees at Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, Concordia University and other out-of-province schools. We have formalized degree completion at Emily Carr University of Art and Design as well as Alberta College Art and Design. Students should understand that advanced standing in any institution is usually based on an interview and a portfolio submission, as well as credits.

Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 494 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Fine & Applied Arts Technical Theatre Goals The Technical Theatre program provides a thorough grounding in technical production skills required by a variety of entertainment media. Facilities Performance classes are held in the Arbutus Studio adjacent to the Capilano University Performing Arts Theatre, which houses the department’s season of plays. The Performing Arts Theatre is complete with a rehearsal hall, changing rooms, technical workshops, a fly-tower, and a 372-seat house. Theatre students enjoy exceptional access to these facilities and assist in running the theatres in a hands-on, educational experience. The Theatre department produces a series of plays in which students work in settings simulating professional conditions. The goal is to foster professional discipline and to provide opportunities for students to practise skills learned in the classroom. Faculty and professional guest artists are the directors and designers for the plays produced by the Theatre department in the Performing Arts Theatre. Shows in this facility are technically challenging and provide valuable experience for student technicians. In addition to the department productions, students have the opportunity to work on a wide variety of events that take place in the Performing Arts Theatre. Students are involved with the set up and operation of professional, touring theatre productions, folk, jazz, and pop concerts, and a host of other events. Revues produced in the Arbutus Studio have different goals. They resemble the kind of theatre produced for Fringe Festivals and small companies. In this more intimate venue, students have the freedom to explore. Students are given the opportunity to assume leadership roles, and the production teams are expected to be self-reliant.

Is there a conflict between faith and reason? What is fundamentalism? Is spirituality important for human flourishing? This course begins by examining the major arguments for theism. These include the teleological argument, the cosmological argument, the ontological argument, the argument from religious experience, the moral argument, and the cumulative case argument. The arguments are flawed, but they help us understand religious attitudes towards the limits of human knowledge, the nature of reality, the nature of persons, the objectivity of moral values, and questions such as why there is something rather than nothing. Arguments for atheism are also examined, including the problem of evil and reductive accounts of religious belief. The popular views of Richard Dawkins and other neo-atheists are introduced, as well as the claim that these writers fail to distinguish between informed religiosity and uninformed fundamentalism. In addition, the voluntarism of William James and the reformed epistemology of Alvin Plantinga are considered. These non-evidentialist positions are contrasted with the evidentialism of theists such as Richard Swinburne and atheists such as John Mackie. Finally, the possibility of religion without metaphysics is explored. The course is relevant to all, with or without religious faith. The emphasis of the course varies from instructor to instructor.

We will also examine the emergence of science and its method and the extent to which it has been shaped by, and given shape to, philosophical thought during this period. Note: This course is intended to appeal to a broad audience. Anyone with an interest in the intellectual traditions of European heritage is welcome. PHIL 200 Political Philosophy: Classic Theories 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course surveys major political theories in the Western tradition. It introduces students to the principal issues in political philosophy by looking at the writings of some of history's most important philosophers, possibly including Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Mill, and Marx. The general question addressed is: How should society be organized? In considering answers to this question we investigate the grounds for political and social structures like the state, government, laws, property, and principles of justice. PHIL 201 Political Philosophy: Problems and Issues 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course adopts a problems and issues approach to political philosophy. Rather than focusing on particular philosophers in the history of political thought (as in PHIL 200), we consider answers to some of the most pressing questions facing political theorists. Topics addressed might include: the justification of authority; the value and limits of rights; liberty and equality; the advantages and disadvantages of democracy; the nature and scope of justice; and nationalism and globalization. A contemporary perspective will be emphasized. PHIL 202 Introduction to Formal Logic 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks A standard introduction to the formal techniques of argument analysis. Formal logic was invented to mirror and evaluate mathematical reasoning and is now a separate branch of Mathematics. Our interest in it will, however, not be mathematical. Instead we will concentrate on the relation of formal logic to everyday reasoning and language in general. The course is essential for students thinking of majoring in Philosophy, but also very useful to Computing Science and Mathematics majors. It is designed to transfer to SFU as their Philosophy 210 (required for both Philosophy and Computing Science majors), and to UBC as Philosophy 302. There are no prerequisites, although students may find Philosophy 110 provides useful background.

PHIL 208 Environmental Ethics 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course deals with ethical and political issues arising from the relationship between humans and their natural surroundings.Typical questions that will be addressed are: Do animals have rights? Is using animals for food and clothing morally wrong? Do we have an obligation to the natural environment such as an obligation to preserve species? What are our obligations to future generations? What is sustainable development? Are environmental problems fundamentally personal or are they fundamentally political and social? Open to anyone in first or second year. PHIL 209 Biomedical Ethics 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course will focus on ethical issues that arise in the health sciences, especially in medicine, but also in biology, psychology and other professions. Among the topics to be considered are abortion and reproductive technology, euthanasia, paternalism and autonomy, resource allocation, involuntary hospitalization and behaviour control. All moral problems will be examined from both an applied and theoretical point of view. Open to anyone in first or second year. PHIL 211 Metaphysics and Epistemology 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks Prerequisite: At least one philosophy course An introduction to some of the traditional problems of metaphysics and epistemology. Some of the questions considered are: Does God exist? What is the relationship between faith and reason? Does free will exist? Is sense perception a reliable source of knowledge? What is the nature of causality? Is materialism true? What is the nature of mind? What is the relationship between mind and body? What is the scientific method? While this is not a course in the history of philosophy, it will cover many of the classical attempts to answer these questions. Note: The specific content and emphasis of the course will be at the instructor's discretion. Note: Prerequisite may be waived by permission of instructor. PHIL 220 Philosophy in Literature 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks An examination of the lively relationship between philosophy and literature.

PHIL 221 3.00 credits Existentialism in Literature (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks Capilano University 2009/2010 Calendar 717 rev.2009-11-18T164158-0800 Course Descriptions This course is, in spirit, a continuation of PHIL 220, but it is centred on the Philosophy of Existentialism in literature. There will be an introductory set of lectures on Existentialism as a philosophy. Textual sources will range from Dostoyevsky's 'Notes from the Underground' to Sartre's 'Nausea'. Open to anyone in first or second year. PHIL 222 Philosophy of Culture (Aesthetics) 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks An introduction to philosophical analysis of cultural works. The course will provide an exploration of aesthetic theory, examining both traditional works of art as well as contemporary cultural productions in a variety of media. One of the objectives of the course is to make sense of what a society is "saying" through its popular culture. Open to anyone in first or second year. PHIL 230 Minds, Brains, and Machines 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course is an introduction to contemporary philosophy of mind. We will investigate the major philosophical theories of mind, but consider also if or how recent developments in neuroscience, biology, psychology, and the study of artificial intelligence influence the philosophical evaluation of these theories. Philosophy of mind is not psychology (although obviously there are connections). Rather, it is the attempt to understand what mental phenomena are and how they might relate to the physical (or material) realm. In the course, we will address questions like the following. What is the nature of mental states? What is the relationship between the mind and the body? Will a physical explanation of consciousness explain consciousness? Are 'zombies' possible? Is the brain just a computer? Is genuine artificial intelligence possible? PHIL 240 Philosophy and Gender Relations 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks Founded on a wide range of philosophical readings, this course will focus on questions such as: What is the good life and its relation to intimacy and family? What is the good person? Are there different models for different genders? What constitutes a good relationship? How important are mutuality, respect, affection, sex, and interdependence to such a relationship? What counts as equality/equity? How should the answers to such questions influence our views on such social issues as affirmative action, prostitution and pornography? The impact of "Women's Liberation" and the "Men's Movement" will be discussed, as will varying suggestions for overcoming the "gender gap". This course should be of interest to men and women equally; indeed, it is assumed that the quality of class discussion will be a function of the degree to which the perspectives of both genders are well represented. Open to anyone in first or second year. PHIL 242 Philosophy of Human Nature 3.00 credits (4,0,0) hrs 15 wks This course tackles a broad spectrum of questions and approaches the issue of human nature. Among the questions to be considered are: Are we, by nature, morally good or evil? Are we purely egocentric beings-biological machines of some sort - or are we spiritual, immaterial beings? Is there some enduring entity that defines the self? Are we free to do as we choose? Or are we essentially passionate creatures who act strictly on the basis of our feelings? Ultimately, our goal will be to learn to think critically and independently about these issues.
