The degree was approved by the Faculty Senate in Spring 2000 andimplemented in the fall of that year.Concurrently, The University of Tennessee (UT) System offered The University of Tennessee atMartin (UTM) the opportunity to provide the initial degree program through UT New College.The BUS degree was selected as the means through which the UT New College could beginoffering bachelor’s degrees off-campus to students at convenient times and places.

understand the basic parts of a subject and how they interrelate. In acomputer science course, the fundamental difference between integers and floating pointvariables requires a deeper understanding of memory allocation, type referencing andaddressing. An example to test at the analysis level of understanding follows, where what astudent knows about basic arithmetic is challenged by the program’s output: ... void main(){ double x = 22.0/7, save_x; save_x = x; x = x + 100000000002; x = x - 100000000002; if (x == save_x) cout << "x +/- 100000000002 is the same as its initial value \n"; else cout << "x +/- 100000000002 is NOT equal the initial value

field and transferred in, 40% of the 8th semester students majoring inscience and mathematics had “in-migrated” to that field from a different area. Onecannot attribute this to any difference in the desired high school preparation forengineering as compared to science and math. A second point of particular interest isthat engineering is the only field in which one finds no seniors who originally were“undeclared”. For almost every other field, “undeclared” was the second largest sourceof 8th semester majors. The data for math and science is important in that it shows thatsome of these “major switchers” and “initially undeclared” students are not avoidingmath and science.
