INT 624 Teaching and Technology (1 credit) Permanent Course Changes 1. Title change from INT 603 Thesis, Professional Project, and/or Field Study to INT 603 Thesis or Professional Project 2. Course re-numbering from INT 611 to INT 645 3. Course description change for INT 630 4. Course description and title change for INT 625 5. Pre-requisite added and number of credits change from 3-2 for INT 650 Teaching Meaning Transfer 6. Course description change and range of credits for INT 609 Practicum See the current catalog copy and proposed catalog changes below. Changes are italicized in the column on the right.
