Notes: 1)ACCT-8010 & ACCT-8020 are prerequisites for ACCT-8030, ACCT-8040, ACCT-8050, ACCT-8060 or BUSI-8610. 2) ACCT-8070 and ACCT-8080 are co-requisite courses that are restricted to MBA-PAS students who have completed ACCT-8010,ACCT-8020, BUSI-8010, STEN-8980, BUSI-8673-01,ACCT-8030,ACCT-8040,ACCT-8050,ACCT-8060 or BUSI-8610. Graduation Requirement:

• Must have a cumulative average of 70%. • Must not have more than one course under 70% • Must obtain a minimum grade of 70% in ACCT-8070 • Must obtain a minimum grade of 70% in ACCT-8080

A.2 MINOR COURSE CHANGES REQUIRING ADDITIONAL RESOURCES OR AFFECTING DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

If this is a minor course and calendar change (usually noted on a Form E) requiring additional resources or affecting degree requirements, please provide the current course information and the proposed new course information by cutting and pasting from the current undergraduate or graduate web calendar and clearly marking deletions with strikethrough (strikethrough) and additions/new information with bolding and underlining. Examples of minor course changes include: deleting courses, course description changes, pre/anti/co- requisite changes, contact hour/lab requirement changes, course title changes, renumbering courses, and/or cross-listing courses. Minor course calendar changes, which do not require additional resources or do not affect degree requirements, should be submitted on a Form E.

N/A B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). MBA-PAS is a highly competitive professional program which requires a minimum grade of 70% to be competitive. ACCT-8070 & ACCT-8080 are co-requisite courses that are directly related to the CFE of that year. A grade of less than 70% is not a sufficient standard, as these are capstone courses designed to prepare students to write the CFE. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material

Minor course calendar changes, which do not require additional resources or do not affect degree requirements, should be submitted on a Form E.

No additional resources are required. B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). To offer students more options that will lead to more work opportunities for them after their graduation. The acquired skills from these two optional courses will enable MAC students to land internship placements that are related to Artificial Intelligence. Furthermore, and because of the special annotation on their transcripts for the Artificial Intelligence specialization, these graduates will get an edge when applying for jobs in the Artificial intelligence field, which has become in high demand in the high-tech industry. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


The AAU Head has consulted with the Dean of Science about how consideration can be properly given to incorporating Indigenous content, perspectives, or material into this minor change of the program. C. RESOURCES C.1 Available Faculty and Staff Resources (QAF sections 2.1.7, 2.1.8, 2.1.9 and 2.1.10)


These two existing courses are already being offered by qualified tenured faculty from the School of Computer Science, as part of our graduate courses for the existing MAC, MSc and PhD programs. C.1.1 Faculty Expertise in Support of the Revised Program

A.2 MINOR COURSE CHANGES REQUIRING ADDITIONAL RESOURCES OR AFFECTING DEGREE REQUIREMENTS If this is a minor course and calendar change (usually noted on a Form E) requiring additional resources or affecting degree requirements, please provide the current course information and the proposed new course information by cutting and pasting from the current undergraduate or graduate web calendar and clearly marking deletions with strikethrough (strikethrough) and additions/new information with bolding and underlining. Examples of minor course changes include: deleting courses, course description changes, pre/anti/co- requisite changes, contact hour/lab requirement changes, course title changes, renumbering courses, and/or cross-listing courses. Minor course calendar changes, which do not require additional resources or do not affect degree requirements, should be submitted on a Form E.

N/A B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). The Department is proposing four changes to the Master of Actuarial Science program: (1) The replacement of BUSI-8030 and BUSI-8120 with ACSC-8300 and ACSC-8400, respectively, (2) A rescheduling of the courses caused by the introduction of the new courses, (3) A name change for ACSC-8070 to better match the course content and the nomenclature of the Society of Actuaries, and (4) Inclusion of regulations on earning credit for graduate courses. NEW COURSE PROPOSALS (ASSC-8300 and ACSC-8400) The new course “ACSC-8300 Mathematical Statistics for Actuarial Science” will provide students with the material necessary for the newly required Mathematical Statistics ‘Valedation by Educational Equivalents’ (VEE). The new course “ACSC–8400 Actuarial Science Capstone Project” will provide students with practical experience with Actuarial Science projects and will teach them professional communication skills, both of which will increase employability in the profession. To make room for the new courses, we will be removing the two business courses currently required. The impact here is that students will no longer graduate with the Accounting/Finance VEE but will get credit for the Mathematical Statistics VEE. Students can still obtain the Accounting/Finance VEE credential through an online course recognized by the Society of Actuaries REVISED COURSE OFFERING SCHEDULE SHOWING COURSE REPLACEMENTS Given the change of courses we reschedule the courses so that ACSC-8400 is in Term 4 and ACSC-8010 precedes ACSC-8300. We must also ensure that those courses combined with either MATH or STATS courses are offered in the terms as the combined courses. Courses with a changed schedule are marked with a “*” at the beginning of the line. The changed course schedule will not affect students currently in the program since in Fall 2019 we will teach the courses both for the Term 4 students that started prior to the change as well as the new Term 1 schedule to entering students. When the students starting in Fall 2019 reach term 4 in Fall 2020, they will get the new Term 4 courses. INCLUSION OF REGULATIONS ON EARNING CREDIT FOR GRADUATE COURSES To enhance transparency to students in the program we want to make our departmental policy on granting credit for graduate courses. We note that changes to the admission requirements have also been proposed and they are now making their way through the approval process. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material

The University of Windsor is committed to building stronger, more meaningful partnerships with Indigenous students, scholars and communities. In revising this program(s), how has consideration been given to incorporating Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) content, perspectives, or material into the curriculum?

For these changes, no consideration has been given to incorporating Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) content, perspectives, or material into the curriculum. However, the AAU Head has started conversations with members of the University’s Aboriginal Education Council to create a knowledge base about appropriate changes that could be made in the future.

Page 4 of 5

C. RESOURCES C.1 Available Faculty and Staff Resources (QAF sections 2.1.7, 2.1.8, 2.1.9 and 2.1.10)


The resources available for the program in its current form are enough for the slightly modified program. These include the Director of the Actuarial Science program, the Department Head, the Chair of the AAU Graduate Committee and the Graduate Secretary, existing faculty members and our pool of sessional instructors. C.1.1 Faculty Expertise in Support of the Revised Program


The faculty resources used for the program in its current form are enough for the modified program. C.1.2 Extent of Reliance on Adjunct, Limited-term, and Sessional Faculty in Delivering the Revised Program


The main impact is that the Department will now have to seek sessional instructors for the two new courses, where the Odette School of Business had this responsibility for the courses being replaced. Given that the department currently manages sessionals for approximately 30 courses this additional workload is easily managed. C.1.3 Graduate Faculty Qualifications and Supervisory Loads (FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS ONLY)

Explain how supervisory loads will be distributed and describe the qualifications and appointment status of faculty who will provide instruction and supervision in the revised program.

The change will not increase the supervisory loads of the graduate faculty in the AAU. The sessionals hired to teach the new courses will either be existing graduate faculty in statistics, if they choose, or a Sessional Instructor that either possesses an appropriate PhD or professional training, such as membership in the Society of Actuaries. C.1.4 Financial Assistance for Graduate Students (where appropriate) (FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS ONLY)


The changes are for a professional, self-funded program and so no financial assistance will be necessary. C.2 Other Available Resources (Ministry sections 3 and 4)


The minor program changes do not impact the current demand on resources, in any of the categories listed. C.3 Resource Implications for Other Campus Units (Ministry sections 3 and 4)

Currently, the Master of Actuarial Science funds separate sections of existing courses in the Odette School of Business, which have, to date, always been taught by a sessional instructor. With these changes, the Odette School will no longer be required to offer the course sections. This does no impact the other sections of the courses that are offered.

Describe the reliance of the proposed program revisions on existing resources from other campus units, including for example: existing courses, equipment or facilities outside the proposer’s control, external resources requiring maintenance or upgrading using external resources Provide relevant details.

Consequently, the Odette School of Business will lose the income paid by Faculty of Science for teaching the Master of Actuarial Science students. C.4 Anticipated New Resources (QAF sections 2.1.7, 2.1.8 and 2.1.9; Ministry section 4)


No new resources are anticipated. C.5 Planned Reallocation of Resources and Cost-Savings (QAF section 2.1.7 and 2.1.9; Ministry section 4)


Funds normally paid to the Odette School of Business to offer BUSI-8030 and BUSI-8120 will now remain in the Faculty of Science and will be used to fund the two new courses. C.6 Additional Resources Required – Resources Requested (QAF section 2.1.7 and 2.1.9)

International applicants to graduate programs in Computer Science must demonstrate English proficiency by meeting or exceeding an IELTS overall score of 6.5 (or equivalent), with no more than two one band scores of 6.0, and no band score below 6.0 (or TOEFL of 92). A.2 MINOR COURSE CHANGES REQUIRING ADDITIONAL RESOURCES OR AFFECTING DEGREE REQUIREMENTS


None B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). Feedback has been received from both course instructors and thesis supervisors. Deficiency in English language among international graduate students has been a problem for them to complete assignments/projects when taking courses, to perform their GA duties when communicating with (undergraduate) students, or to accomplish tasks when conducting thesis research. While the higher requirement is anticipated to help improve English proficiency among students, the proposed change will not cause any shortage of qualified applications with a steady increase of applications from 300 in 2015 to 330 (2016), 542 (2017), and 628 in 2018. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


The proposed change to English language requirement applies only to international students, which has no impact on indigenous students.

No additional resources are required. B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). § MATH-1980 is a pre-requisite of ACCT-1510, FINA-2700, MSCI-2020 and MSCI-2200, and co-requisite of MSCI-1000.

Each of the three areas are in favor of changing the pre-requisite MATH-1980 to MATH-1980/1250/1720/1760 or equivalent.

§ The Bachelor of Commerce program needs the flexibility to accommodate students of a wide variety of background, pathways, specialization and combined programs.

§ For business students who join Odette from the other institutions as transfer students or under 1+3 articulation agreements, e.g., one with DUFE, the proposed change is close to the current practice. For example, MATH-1980 requirements of DUFE have been waived because they take the equivalent of MATH-1720 at DUFE before coming to Odette under the Senate-approved 1+3 articulation agreement.

§ For the regular business students, the proposed change would open the door to meet the math requirement by taking one of MATH-1250 or MATH-1720 or MATH-1760.

§ Odette’s comparator business schools still require their students to take one or more courses equivalent to the proposed courses MATH-1250, MATH-1720 and MATH-1760.

§ The requirement that students may have to complete an OSB English Proficiency Test was submitted by OSB Council and approved by Senate in May 2008. However, OSB does not have any English Proficiency test and does not administer one and does not have any resources to do so. Possibly, OSB has never administered an English proficiency test to any undergraduate student. Thus, the proposed change is necessary to keep the calendar up to date.

§ MGMT-1000, a required course for all Bachelor of Commerce (Honors Business Administration) programs, is designed and implemented to assure this competency.

B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


All course outlines of the Odette School of Business recognizes that the Odette School of Business and the University of Windsor sit on the Traditional territory of the Three Fires confederacy of First Nations, comprised of the Ojibway, the Odawa, and the Potawatomie. Odette has undertaken research to provide information upon which systematic indigenization will proceed in a transparent, and collegial manner to meet the needs of the stakeholders. C. RESOURCES C.1 Available Faculty and Staff Resources (QAF sections 2.1.7, 2.1.8, 2.1.9 and 2.1.10)


The Odette School of Business faculty and staff are all committed to support the programs. C.1.1 Faculty Expertise in Support of the Revised Program


The existing faculty members of the Odette School of Business can support the revised program. C.1.2 Extent of Reliance on Adjunct, Limited-term, and Sessional Faculty in Delivering the Revised Program


The Odette School of Business covers all the courses required to be completed at the University of Windsor. All such courses are regularly offered by the Odette School of Business. The full-time faculty members are capable of teaching all the courses. However, sessional faculty members are regularly used to teach approximately 20% to 25% of course offerings.

B. RATIONALE Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). • The above courses are all required by the Accounting specialization. The students who do all or most of the courses

towards the Accounting Specialization, enrol in the PGCA program only for a few courses e.g., ACCT-4590, ACCT-4600 and ACCT-4610 and then correctly leave the program without necessarily receiving the PGCA, but completing the CPA Pre-PEP requirements. This issue of students leaving the PGCA program without receiving the PGCA has been discussed by the Directors of the PGCA program, MBA-PAS program, Accounting area and the Dean in the last two or three years. The concern is the low retention rate that results, although this is perfectly normal for students to complete the requirements of the CPA Pre-PEP requirements and leave. The proposal will fix this problem by awarding PGCA to such students as they complete all requirements of the CPA Pre-PEP, for which PGCA program is created. Thus, the retention rate of the program will be accurately reflected.

• The courses ACCT-4590, ACCT-4600 and ACCT-4610 are not required by the Accounting Specialization and are not included in the list of courses which are eligible for exemption without requiring substitution by the other courses.

• The proposal will make the PGCA a flexible certificate program which students can complete by taking at least 3 courses ACCT-4590, ACCT-4600 and ACCT-4610 to at most 19 courses depending on their background. Such a flexibility meets the need of a heterogeneous nature of the students admitted to the program.

N/A B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). This program change accompanies a number and name change to the course ESCI-3200 (Climate Change) to ESCI-2210 (Introduction to Climate Change). This will allow students to access climate change topics in 2nd rather than 3rd year. A new course at the 3rd or 4th year levels is being developed that will follow from this course. Given this, ESCI-1130 (Atmosphere and Climate), is being changed to a major option. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


The renumbering of ESCI-3200 has no impact on indigenous content.

Not applicable B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). We recently received Senate approval to implement major program revisions to our Collaborative Honours BScN Program, to begin in Fall 2019. Students entering through the degree completion pathway with Lambton and St. Clair Colleges typically take a combination of year 1 and year 2 courses during their first year. The proposed pathway allows students to take a combination of “new” year 1 courses and “current” year 2 courses, and allows students to join and complete the current curriculum when they transfer to the University of Windsor in the second year of their program. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


Threading of Indigenous content perspectives and material throughout the program have been established (e.g. Professional Nursing, Adult Health, Community Health, Global Health, Experiential Learning Lab, and expert guess speaker). As a required competency of the BScN program, students must show cultural competence, and an example of how the Faculty of Nursing (FON) plans to thread Indigenous content is as follows: Cancer Care eLearning Modules from Cancer Care Ontario Aboriginal Relations Competency Course (https://elearning.cancercare.on.ca/), history of residential schools, and case studies. C. RESOURCES C.1 Available Faculty and Staff Resources (QAF sections 2.1.7, 2.1.8, 2.1.9 and 2.1.10)


No additional faculty or staff resources will be needed. C.1.1 Faculty Expertise in Support of the Revised Program


The Faculty of Nursing has sufficient faculty to implement the proposed changes. C.1.2 Extent of Reliance on Adjunct, Limited-term, and Sessional Faculty in Delivering the Revised Program


Nursing does not expect a change from our current faculty infrastructure. FON will continue to prioritize our current practice of assigning full-time PhD prepared faculty to teach our theory courses. Additionally, FON will continue to

Page 49 of 437


FORM C

Page 5 of 6

hire the most current, qualified and experienced clinical instructors to teach our clinical and laboratory courses. FON is increasingly able to hire Master’s prepared clinical instructors to teach our clinical and laboratory courses (58% hold a Master’s Degree or higher). C.1.3 Graduate Faculty Qualifications and Supervisory Loads (FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS ONLY)


N/A. C.1.4 Financial Assistance for Graduate Students (where appropriate) (FOR GRADUATE PROGRAMS ONLY)


N/A. C.2 Other Available Resources (Ministry sections 3 and 4)


Staff Support, Teaching and Learning support, and Student Support Services: In recent years, FON has invested in additional staff support: Student Success Coordinator (whose role has expanded to be full-time), an additional AAS clinical practice learning specialist, dedicated IT support, Clinical Therapist, and a Receptionist. On average, the FON hires 23-24 GAs annually to help support the undergraduate theory courses. FON hires approximately 23 students as Peer Mentors to work in our Clinical Learning Lab and our Simulation Lab, where they assist with learning activities. Library: No change required in our current level of library support. Space: At this time, FON space, equipment, and facilities adequately support our program needs. Our facility completed a $4.2-million expansion of its Clinical Learning Centre facilities in 2012. The Faculty of Nursing’s state-of-the-art, cutting-edge Clinical Learning Centre is a place where students learn advanced skills and engage in reality-based scenarios using high fidelity mannequins and standardized patients. The high-fidelity mannequins talk, breath, have lung, heart and bowel sounds, and are physiologically modeled to respond to treatment and medication as would a real patient. The Faculty acquired additional space to expand its facilities on the third floor of the adjacent Medical Education Building. These facilities include the following:

• A second Simulation Lab, with an adjacent viewing/control room for instructor evaluation and debriefing purposes (see photo below)

• Two primary care rooms • An Infection Control Isolation/Palliative Care Suite, which may be converted for multi-purpose use, such as a

homecare setting for palliative care and counselling skills development (see photo below) • A second eight bed Health Assessment lab (see photo below) • Three additional faculty offices

The Faculty also has acquired additional offices spaces on the 2nd floor of Toldo (vacated by University Secretariat), and the 1st floor of Toldo (vacated by CTL).

Calendar descriptions should be written in the third person and should provide a general outline of the course material. Where appropriate, examples of topics or themes, which might be covered in the course, should also be provided.

This course explores the new trending and emerging technologies in the area of Computer Science and Information Technology. Students are required to investigate, through research, reading and use, a number of trending technologies, which reflect the breadth of the computing science discipline. Examples of such trending technologies, which might change over the years, include and is not limited to, cloud computing, cyber security, artificial intelligence and deep learning. For each trending technology, students are required to compare, test and contrast the major available products representing the technology. Each group of students (2 or more students), will be assigned one trending/emerging technology on which they are required to write a critical review report. Students will use a team project management tool for their assigned work and will also present it as seminars to their class, to enhance their communication skills. A.2 Other Course Information

B. RATIONALE B.1 Course Goal(s)

Please provide a statement about the purpose of the course within the program of study or as an option. This course fills the gap for the new emerging and/or trending technologies in the area of computing science, not taught in any other existing course in the School of Computer Science. Students will learn how to investigate, test and compare new advanced technologies. In addition, they will also learn technical writing and will improve their professional communication skills through presentations. Because the IT field is very dynamic, with new complex and advanced technologies appearing at a fast pace, this course is necessary to prepare MAC graduates for their careers and will give them an edge when applying for jobs related to these technologies. B.2 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material

The University of Windsor is committed to building stronger, more meaningful partnerships with Indigenous students, scholars and communities. In developing this course, how has consideration been given to incorporating Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) content, perspectives, or material into the curriculum?

The AAU Head has consulted with the Dean of Science about how consideration can be properly given to incorporating Indigenous content, perspectives, or material into the curriculum of this course. B.3 LEARNING OUTCOMES (QAF section 2.1.1, 2.1.3, and 2.1.6)

Please complete the following table. State the specific learning outcomes that make up the goal of the course (what will students know and be able to do at the end of this course?) and link the learning outcomes to the Characteristics of a University of Windsor Graduate outlined in “To Greater Heights” by listing them in the appropriate rows.

A. NEW COURSE PROFILE Course # and Title: LAWG-5944. Clients A.1 Calendar Description


This course will focus on the development of student skills and knowledge that will eventually enable them to be a client-centred lawyer. It will use experiential tools including client interviewing, negotiating and mediating, and some advocacy to explore the particular needs and expectations of different client groups. The particular client groups identified are just a small selection of the potential range of those whom law students could benefit from a more substantive and thorough introduction to, and are not intended as a “special” or exhaustive list. Rather they reflect the interests and experience of the instructor, as well as focusing on the most vulnerable client groups, in keeping with Windsor Law’s A2J theme and commitment. A secondary goal of the course is to enable students to explore concretely their own interest in working with particular groups of clients, and what it would require to establish a practice that reached out to these clients.

A. NEW COURSE PROFILE Course # and Title: LAWG-5956. Race and the Law A.1 Calendar Description


The course examines the importance of race as a social construct. Race structures people’s everyday lives. From racial profiling and carding of racialized youth in various Ontario cities to excessive use of force by the police in dealing with racialized people are all good examples of how racial constructs mediates the lives of racialized people. Juries in two criminal trials have returned verdicts of not guilty in the murder of two Indigenous youth: Tina Fontaine and Colten Boushie. All of these examples are illustrative of how race, racism and racialization are tied to legality and illegality. A.2 Other Course Information

Please provide a statement about the purpose of the course within the program of study or as an option. This course in advanced administrative law explores and interrogates the means by which administrative actors deliver justice in several contemporary settings. Using various methodological and theoretical lenses such as theories stemming from public administration, empirical analysis, ethnography, historical analysis, Foucauldian analysis and critical theories, students will be provided with the opportunity to reflect upon the lived realities of those who use the institutions of the administrative state. Novel approaches to designing and employing tools of the administrative state to foster administrative justice, here and in other jurisdictions, (such as proactive regulation, administrative justice councils, civil society oriented initiatives, and named judicial review) will be discussed. Case studies will vary depending on the year but may include income security and social benefits regimes and low income members of

A. NEW COURSE PROFILE Course # and Title: LAWG- 5986 Public Health Law in Canada: The Role of the State, Law and Human Rights A.1 Calendar Description


This course explores the relation of law and legal practice to population health, by drawing on the twin fields of human rights law and public health. We rely on a contextual focus on population health, rather than observing health behaviours in isolation. We also rely on emergent understandings of human rights as inextricably linked to public health outcomes. We begin by canvassing the fundamental principles of public health law, including legal approaches to advancing human well-being by improving population health and remediating health inequities. Selected topics in public health law will illustrate the states duty to protect the public's health: food labeling, access to safe injection services, access to health care services for marginalized communities, tobacco control, exposure to environmental hazards, and emergency preparedness. Particular attention will be paid to situations where human rights and the states duty to protect public health collide. Finally, we critically evaluate laws potential to serve as a powerful tool for the public’s health, including by constructing a legal response to a contemporary public health question.

Please provide a statement about the purpose of the course within the program of study or as an option. Society has an interest in assuring the conditions in which people can be well. How can the law support this aim? Public health law is built around this question and many others. What are the legal powers of the state and state actors in implementing public health measures? We begin by canvassing the fundamental principles of public health law, by reviewing various legal instruments that illustrate the state’s public health powers and duties. In particular, this course draws on the twin fields of human rights law and public health. To what extent can the state legitimately

Page 133 of 437


FORM D

Page 67 of 74

impinge on individual rights in its efforts to promote or protect the public’s health? Those advocating for a broadened role for public health focus on improving the population’s health, the effectiveness of deterrence and the importance of promoting social justice. Critics instead point to the importance of individual liberties and self-reliance, the problem of paternalism and the slippery slope of government intervention. This course explores the application of these conflicting views to examples of public health measures. How does the language of law (“rights,” “duties” and “justice”) animate current debates about public health? Selected topics in public health law illustrate the relationship between human rights and state’s duty to protect public health: fluoridation of the water supply, mandatory vaccination, responses to pandemics and communicable diseases, regulation of reproductive technologies, criminalization of HIV non-disclosure, the detainment by quarantine order to avoid the spread of infectious diseases, proposals for a “fat tax” and GMO labeling. What is the potential of law to improve population health and remediate health inequities? We canvass and critically evaluate various legal approaches to advancing wellbeing. We explore the role of law in the development, implementation and frustration (through judicial challenge) of public health measures. Areas of law engaged include human rights law, criminal law, constitutional law, tort law, privacy law, and administrative law. B.2 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material


This course invites students to consider the colonialization as a social determinant of health, as explored through readings by Indigenous authors and guest lectures. B.3 LEARNING OUTCOMES (QAF section 2.1.1, 2.1.3, and 2.1.6)





A. Review, summarize, and critically examine fundamental principles of public health law in Canada, including the state’s legal powers and duties (and its limits) to ensure the conditions required for people to be healthy.


B. Think strategically about complex, emergent public health legal problems and choose a course of action.

C. Critically evaluate the utility of law as a framework to guide (or challenge) public health efforts.

D.Assess and comment knowledgeably upon contemporary examples of the State’s authority to constrain an individual’s autonomy in furtherance of the common good.


E.Reflect on the possibilities of a just balance between human rights and the state’s duty to protect and promote the public’s health.


F.Explore opportunities for legal interventions that seek to support the public’s health (including international law, litigation, advocacy and rights-based research).



H. dentify specific sources and principles of public health law, and apply it to a contemporary public health legal issue.

What will be the impact of offering the new course on enrolments in existing courses in the program or Department? This course will supplement, but be distinguishable from, the current health law offerings at the Faculty of Law: • “Mental Health and the Law” is offered as an intensive course which explores the construction of mental health

and addictions in the civil and criminal mental health systems. • “Health Law in Practice” adopts an experiential pedagogical approach, offering students first-hand insight into the

management of medical malpractice litigation. This course, instead, focuses further upstream, including on prevention and the social determinants of health. Students will deeply explore harm reduction approaches and population-level perspectives to emergent public health issues like opioid crisis, vaccination hesitancy and police killings. Other law schools, including the University of Toronto, offer Public Health Law as a standalone course, separate from other health law courses. The two health law courses currently on offer are taught by practitioners. This proposed Public Health law course will consider the theoretical underpinnings, mechanisms and models central to public health law. B.5 Student Workload

This is a course about the law and policy of forced migration in global context. The term “forced migrant”, along with the term “refugee”, with which it is often conflated, encompasses several groups. One is “Convention refugees” - those who fit the relatively narrow definition enumerated by the 1951 Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees for individual refugee status. This course will deal with both Convention refugees and forms of mass displacement, but will focus on the latter. This course will address the legal and social aspects of all these phases and challenges, including recent shifts in approaches to managing migration flows (including increased use of resettlement as a durable solution) and the movement towards a Global Compact on Refugees.

Honours Drama in Education and Community with concentration in Applied Theatre A.2 MINOR COURSE CHANGES REQUIRING ADDITIONAL RESOURCES OR AFFECTING DEGREE REQUIREMENTS

If this is a minor course and calendar change (usually noted on a Form E) requiring additional resources or affecting degree requirements, please provide the current course information and the proposed new course information by cutting and pasting from the current undergraduate or graduate web calendar and clearly marking deletions with strikethrough (strikethrough) and additions/new information with bolding and underlining.Examples of minor course changes include: deleting courses, course description changes, pre/anti/co- requisite changes, contact hour/lab requirement changes, course title changes, renumbering courses, and/or cross-listing courses. Minor course calendar changes, which do not require additional resources or do not affect degree requirements, should be submitted on a Form E.

N/A B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). The addition of ‘with concentration in Applied Theatre’ communicates more specifically that the focus of this program is two-pronged with a focus on education and performance practice. With the addition of the Concurrent General Bachelor of Arts (Drama)/Bachelor of Education program, it is helpful to differentiate between the two programs. It has been causing confusion with recruitment and applications. NO changes made to programing, other than some course description titles to follow. NO changes made to faculty and staff resources. B.1 Indigenous (First Nations, Métis, or Inuit) Content, Perspectives, or Material

N/A B. RATIONALE

Please provide a rationale for the proposed change(s). The Master's exam is based on material studied in the Departmental Seminar. The exam is organized once a year, usually at the end of the semester in which the Departmental Seminar is offered. The current graduate calendar description does not say if (and when) a student can retake a failed Master's exam. The added language corrects this oversight. The new language makes it clear that a student can retake the exam either the semester following the semester in which the Departmental Seminar was offered, or the following year.
