College's Office of Special Programs, (610) 330-5075. Degree Programs Recognizing the value of extending educa tional opportunities to the community, Lafayette has the oldest evening degree program in the Lehigh Valley. Degree pro grams available entirely through evening study are Economics and Business (A.B.) and Electrical and Computer Engineering (B.S.). All of Lafayette's degree programs are available to part-time students through the day program. The evening and day programs are comparable and consist of a fall semester and a spring se mester. Most evening classes meet one or two evenings each week, and in many cas es are scheduled so that students may take two courses meeting on the same evening. The College also offers an Interim Session in January, plus various summer options. Degree Candidacy Students who intend to enter a degree program normally must have completed high school at least two years previously and must meet the minimum require ments for admission established for all students in the chosen program. The Col lege welcomes applications from students who wish to transfer from two-year and four-year institutions. A student who transfers from a regionally accredited in stitution will be granted credit toward a Lafayette degree for courses that are con sistent with the goals of his or her aca demic program at Lafayette and in which a grade of at least "C" (or equivalent) has been earned. Engineering courses must be from an engineering program that is ac credited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. Students who have earned credits from other colleges and universities must sub mit official transcripts and catalogs con taining course descriptions from these in stitutions as part of the admissions proce dure. Applicants who have successfully completed courses at these colleges will receive an evaluation of transfer credit be fore matriculation. An official copy of the student's high school record is also re ACADEMIC PROGRAM quired. Transfer students are normally not admitted with advanced standing beyond the sophomore level. They are required to complete at least one-half of their degree requirements at Lafayette. Nonmatriculating Students Nonmatriculating students with special interests in particular subject areas who wish to take courses may be admitted on a semester-to-semester basis as Special Stu dents. Evidence of course prerequisites may be required. Courses may be taken for credit or audited. The audit fee for part-time and special students is the pre vailing part-time audit rate. All audits must have the approval of the instructor of the course. Courses which require a high degree of participation (e.g., labora tory courses, studio art courses, and for eign languages emphasizing conversa tion) normally may not be audited. Academic Policies Part-time students are limited to no more than two courses per semester and are charged at the prevailing part-time rate. When a part-time student reaches senior standing, however, the student may take an additional course in two of his or her last four semesters at Lafayette. The stu dent will continue to be billed at the part- time rate. Such exceptions must be ap proved by the Director of Special Pro grams. The Office of Special Programs coordi nates academic advising for all evening degree students through the appropriate department in the student's major area. These advisers are assigned when the stu dent is accepted into a degree program. Students who have not been officially ac cepted into a major and special students not seeking entrance into a degree pro gram are advised by the Director of Spe cial Programs. All part-time students are expected to follow the College's policy on Statute of Limitations for Students listed on page 11- 12 of this catalog. It is the obligation of the student to become aware of the College's policies regarding the rights and respon sibilities of students. 19
ACADEMIC PROGRAM A part-time degree candidate wishing to enroll as a full-time student must peti tion the Academic Progress Committee to change to full-time status. Admission on a full-time basis is restricted to those with exemplary academic records and a mini mum of five courses taken at Lafayette. Lafayette is a member of the Lehigh Valley Association of Independent Col leges (LVAIC), which also includes Alien- town College, Cedar Crest, Lehigh, Mora vian, and Muhlenberg. LVAIC has extend ed to part-time degree candidates who have achieved sophomore standing the opportunity to cross-register for part-time day and evening courses. Both grades and credits earned at one of the cooperating colleges under this policy will transfer au tomatically to the student's home institu tion. Cross-registration provides the op portunity to take courses not available at the home institution and thus eases the scheduling difficulties sometimes experi enced by working adults. A part-time stu dent may enroll in a maximum of two courses through cross-registration for each year of equivalent full-time study. Fees are charged according to the policy of the host institution. Evening Engineering Program Electrical and Computer Engineering courses must be taken in sequence. The part-time evening degree program is planned for completion in eight years. The sequence is as follows: FIRST-YEAR I FALL Chemistry 121 Mathematics 161 SPRING Chemistry 122 or Engineering Science 231 Mathematics 162 SUMMER I English 110 FIRST-YEAR II FALL Mathematics 146 Mathematics 263 SPRING Mathematics 264 20 Physics 131 SUMMER II Literature Elective SOPHOMORE I FALL Physics 132 Social Sciences/Humanities Elective SPRING Electrical & Computer Engineering 221 Social Sciences/Humanities Elective SUMMER III Engineering Science 101 or equivalent SOPHOMORE II FALL Computer Science 102 Electrical & Computer Engineering 211 SPRING Computer Science 103 Electrical & Computer Engineering 212 SUMMER IV Social Sciences/Humanities Elective JUNIOR I FALL Electrical & Computer Engineering 322 Electrical & Computer Engineering 331 SPRING Electrical & Computer Engineering 323 Social Sciences/Humanities Elective SUMMER V Free Elective JUNIOR II FALL Electrical & Computer Engineering 341 Engineering Science 225 SPRING Electrical & Computer Engineering 313 Computer Science 205 SUMMER VI Free Elective SENIOR I FALL Electrical & Computer Engineering 433 Electrical & Computer Engineering Elective SPRING Electrical & Computer Engineering 442 Electrical & Computer Engineering 332
