Course DescriptionThe University Exploration Survey guides students in beginning the process of exploring majors and formulating an academic plan at OSU. This course identifies University procedures and resources in order to promote strategies for successful participation in the OSU community. Emphasis is also placed upon self-initiative, effective decision making, and personal responsibility.

Survey Course Objectives1. To understand the different majors OSU offers2. To learn about different avenues you can pursue to enrich your major exploration and overall

academic experience3. To learn the policies and procedures of the University4. To learn about campus offices that can assist you in areas that may impact your academic

experience

Class Format1. Attendance in all class sessions is mandatory and is essential for your success in this course.

a. Unexcused absences: If you have more than 1 unexcused absence, your final grade will drop one FULL letter grade per additional missed class.

i. Example of the letter grade drop: If a student had a grade of A- at the end of the term before factoring in attendance, and had 2 unexcused absences, their grade would drop to a B-

b. An absence is considered “excused” when:i. The student informed the Recitation instructor prior to the class meeting that he/she

will not be in class (either lecture or recitation) and documentation is provided to support the reason for missing class. Note: If a student cannot inform the instructor prior to missed class, that student must provide documentation as to the reason for the missed class NO LATER than the next class period.

c. It is up to the Recitation instructor’s discretion whether or not the reason and documentation provided constitute an excused absence.

2. Students are expected to arrive on time, prepared for class, and ready to participate in discussions and group activities in a mature manner.

a. Students arriving more than 5 minutes late for class will receive an unexcused absence for the class period in progress.

b. If students leave class early without pre-approval from the instructor, this will be counted as an unexcused absence.

3. Students will be held responsible for all material covered, and all announcements made in class if absent.

4. This is an electronics free classroom unless otherwise noted. Use of cell phone, including text messaging, will not be tolerated. Students who choose not to follow this policy will be asked to leave the class, and their removal will be counted as an unexcused absence.

Student Life Disability ServicesThe Office Student Life Disability Services coordinates accommodations and academic support for students with documented disabilities. These disabilities include, but are not limited to, mobility, hearing, visual, speech, and learning disabilities. If you require any course materials in an alternate format, or require special classroom/testing arrangements please notify your instructor and contact the Office for Disability Services at 150 Pomerene Hall, 1760 Neil Avenue, (614)292-3307 (voice), or (614) 292-0900 (TDD). The office can be reached online at http://www.ods.ohio-state.edu/

Code of Student ConductStudents enrolled at The Ohio State University agree to abide by the Code of Student Conduct: http://studentaffairs.osu.edu/resource_csc.asp . You are expected read and uphold these policies for all activities conducted in this course and at the university.

Academic IntegrityYou are expected to complete all work for this course independently. Collaboration is not allowed on assignments for this course.

Academic integrity is essential to maintaining an environment that fosters excellence in teaching, research, and other educational and scholarly activities. Thus, The Ohio State University and the Committee on Academic Misconduct (COAM) expect that all students have read and understand the University’s Code of Student Conduct, and that all students will complete all academic and scholarly assignments with fairness and honesty. Students must recognize that failure to follow the rules and guidelines established in the University’s Code of Student Conduct and this syllabus may constitute “Academic Misconduct.”

The Ohio State University’s Code of Student Conduct (Section 3335-23-04) defines academic misconduct as: “Any activity that tends to compromise the academic integrity of the University, or subvert the educational process.” Examples of academic misconduct include (but are not limited to) plagiarism, collusion (unauthorized collaboration), copying the work of another student, and possession of unauthorized materials during an examination. Ignorance of the University’s Code of Student Conduct is never considered an “excuse” for academic misconduct, so I recommend that you review the Code of Student Conduct and, specifically, the sections dealing with academic misconduct.

If I suspect that a student has committed academic misconduct in this course, I am obligated by University Rules to report my suspicions to the Committee on Academic Misconduct. If COAM determines that you have violated the University’s Code of Student Conduct (i.e., committed academic misconduct), the sanctions for the misconduct could include a failing grade in this course and suspension or dismissal from the University.

If you have any questions about the above policy or what constitutes academic misconduct in this course, please contact me.

Other sources of information on academic misconduct (integrity) to which you can refer include:

The Committee on Academic Misconduct web pages (oaa.osu.edu/coam/home.html) Ten Suggestions for Preserving Academic Integrity (oaa.osu.edu/coam/ten-suggestions.html) Eight Cardinal Rules of Academic Integrity (www.northwestern.edu/uacc/8cards.html)

Instructor Office Hours:The University Exploration office operates on an appointment-only basis. Call (614) 292-0646, Monday-Friday, 8:00am – 5:00pm to schedule an appointment with your instructor or advisor. University Exploration offers Same Day Express Appointments at times throughout the term.

ASS IGNMENTS


In this section, you’ll find detailed information about all of the graded activities contained in this course, including the rationale behind the assignments, the learning objectives they are designed to accomplish, and any necessary instructions for satisfactorily completing them. If you have questions about how assignments will be graded, you can find detailed grading rubrics associated with each of the assignments in the Carmen module for this course. Further questions about assignments should be directed to your survey instructor.

First Year Success SeriesOne of your first graded assignments in EXP 1100.01 is to attend a few of the hundreds of First Year Success Series (FYSS) events offered all across campus this fall.

FYSS is designed to help you begin well at OSU. From health to academics to finances to housing, FYSS programming is a fun and engaging way to get connected with the people, services, and ideas you’ll need to have a successful first semester in college.

You will need to attend at least 3 FYSS events, each of which is worth 5 points. One of these events must be related to the Buckeye Book Community. However, you are highly encouraged to attend as many Success Series sessions which interest you throughout the year.

You can browse available FYSS events by navigating to http://go.osu.edu/fyss and clicking on “Register for a session” under the “Success Series” dropdown menu, as shown below:

For more detailed registration instructions, you can also watch a help video available at http://go.osu.edu/FYSSregistration.

http://go.osu.edu/FYSSregistration

http://go.osu.edu/fyss


College Overview QuizzesA key learning objective of this course is to familiarize you with the full range of majors offered at OSU. By the time you finish EXP 1100.01, you will have been exposed to every single one of the 200+ majors at this university. For many students, one of the biggest blocks to deciding on a major is the nagging question of whether the perfect fit is somewhere out there and they just haven’t heard of it yet. By the end of this class, that mystery will be resolved. You will have seen all the options. While you’ll still likely have some work to do researching the top ones in more detail, you’ll at least have made a first pass at exploring all of your possible futures.

The main way we accomplish this is through online videos introducing you to each of our majors by college. You are required to view each of these college overview videos, and complete short quizzes in Carmen over this material to ensure you’ve understood it. Each of these quizzes is worth 5 points. There are a total of 11 of them, and the lowest quiz score will be dropped from your final grade calculation. The college overview quizzes cumulatively make up a quarter of your final grade, so don’t neglect this important part of your EXP 1100.01 experience.

Support from the StartSupport from the Start is a University Exploration initiative to help connect you as first-year OSU students with exactly the right campus resources to address your academic and personal needs during this major transition. All EXP 1100.01 students participate in the program. At the beginning of the semester, you’ll receive an email with instructions on how to complete your Support from the Start intake survey, in which you’ll provide information about your concerns as a new college student, the classes you’re planning on taking, and a variety of other subjects. Throughout the semester, Support from the Start will use your responses to send you timed suggestions of resources to consider using, tailored to your particular needs. At the end of the semester, you’ll receive a second email providing instructions on how to complete your Support from the Start exit survey, which will help us better assess how you’ve developed over the course of the semester, how you’ve used the available resources, and how we might adjust our referrals based on your new set of concerns and challenges.

You can also access the Support from the Start assessments through the links available in the Carmen shell for this course, as well as at the following URL’s:

- Assessment 1: go.osu.edu/support1- Assessment 2: go.osu.edu/support2

Although participation is optional, you’ll also have the opportunity to allow us to use your anonymized responses to conduct research on the program, allowing us to improve it for future first-year Exploration students.

Each of the Support from the Start surveys is worth 5 points.

Policies and Resources QuizAn important emphasis of this course is to familiarize you with key university policies as well as resources to help you succeed. Every week at the end of recitation, we’ll be giving you a new Policy of the Week and Resource of the Week. On the following two pages, we’ve provided space for you to take careful notes on the details of each of these pieces of information. Make sure to familiarize yourself with this information! It will be very valuable to you as you navigate this large and complex university and work to stay on track for timely graduation, and you will also be quizzed over this material at the end of class.

Advising AppointmentYou’re probably not used to doing this from your high school experience, but now that you’re in college it’s very important to develop the habit of meeting regularly with your academic advisor. There are all sorts of majors, programs, curricular requirements, professional development opportunities, policies, and resources that you need to be aware of as you navigate your OSU experience, and it’s hard to know where to look all on your own. Your advisor is an expert in Ohio State’s curriculum and major exploration strategies, and can help you with college transition issues, exploring majors, combining programs, strategically scheduling, and more. Developing a relationship with your advisor will help him or her better tailor advising to your particular needs and goals, and allow you to be more confident of your academic choices.

Because of this, we recommend you meet with your advisor once or twice per semester (although you’re welcome to come in as often as you want!). To get you started developing this habit, you will be required to meet once with your advisor by the date listed in the course syllabus. Call 614-292-0646 or stop by 352 Denney Hall to make an appointment, and be sure to mention to the front desk staff that it is for your required survey appointment. Do this sooner rather than later! There will be fewer available appointments closer to the assignment due date. If you wait too long to schedule and you’re not able to get an appointment before the deadline, you will fail this assignment. It must be a full 30-minute appointment to count for this assignment. 15-minute Same-Day Express appointments do not meet this requirement.

It’s also important to realize that the more you prepare for an advising appointment, the more you’ll be able to benefit from it. To help you prepare for your required survey appointment, we require that you complete the Pre-Advising Reflection below and show it to your advisor in the appointment. Consider using this as a template for preparing for all future advising appointments as well.

Associated with the Final Reflection assignment in Carmen Dropbox, you’ll find an attached document with reflection prompts for you to respond to about your exploration process, how that process has developed this semester, where you now stand, and what your goals are for the future. The Final Reflection will be graded for content according to the associated rubric, which is available in Carmen. It is worth 10 points of your final grade.

OSU Majors By Holland Code (RIASEC)The Holland Code (named after its inventor, psychologist John Holland) is a widely-used “work interest” inventory designed to help career explorers assess their own principal areas of interest and match them to high-potential career fields where others with the same or similar interest profiles tend to thrive. The Holland Code groups interests into six main areas, each represented by a letter: realistic (R), investigative (I), artistic (A), social (S), enterprising (E), and conventional (C). The Holland Code assessment assigns 3-letter codes, representing the respondent’s three strongest interest areas.

While Holland Codes are usually targeted toward career exploration, in University Exploration we have adapted the same interest concepts to make recommendations about high-potential majors for students to explore. Once you know your Holland Code, browse through the suggested majors by code in the following document. You might find some intriguing options that you may not have considered yet. The suggestions below are organized according to the top two letters in your code. If there was little difference in strength between any two of your top three letters, be sure to check out the suggestions for both pairings.

Courses to Explore MajorsIn this scheduling guide, you will find a sample list of classes that you may choose to take to help you explore your major areas of interest. Please keep in mind that this list is NOT comprehensive; there may be other appropriate courses not listed in this document. It is recommended that you consult with your University Exploration advisor when choosing classes to explore majors, especially when choosing classes you think may fulfill a General Education requirement. This is especially true of honors students, since honors GE requirements may differ according to major.

*Your chart may or may not be completely full, depending on the number of courses you need to schedule to reach 14-17 hours and how many alternatives you list


RECITAT ION 7Schedule PlanningFOCUSES ON HOW YOU CAN PLAN YOUR SCHEDULE FOR FUTURE SEMESTERS. WE WILL GO OVER HOW TO FIND PRE-REQUISITE AND DEGREE REQUIREMENTS FOR MAJORS/AREAS OF INTEREST. WE WILL WORK THROUGH THE STEPS TO PLAN YOUR SPRING (AND FUTURE) SCHEDULES.


FAQ’s of scheduling

Question: How many credit hours can/should I take?Answer: 12 is the minimum to be full time with 18 the maximum a student can take without petitioning for an overload and paying additional tuition. We generally suggest students take 14-16 credit hours. Honors students should schedule 15-18 credit hours. In general, you should expect to spend about 2 hours outside of class per credit hour, so a 15-hour schedule should translate into 40+ hours of work per week.

Question: My music class is listed as .5-2.0 credit hours, what does this mean?Answer: Some classes can be taken for variable credit hours; this means you can determine how many credit hours of the course you wish to take. For most music classes, the number of credit hours does not impact the amount of work required for the course. Contact your advisor if you want to change the credit hours of a music ensemble course. For Individualized Instruction classes in the languages, the number of credit hours taken corresponds to the number of units and amount of work a student is expected to complete. Contact your instructor and your advisor if you wish to change the credit hours of a language course.

Question: Where can I find elective classes?Answer: Physical activity classes are listed under Kinesiology: Sport, Fitness and Health Programs. The Dance and Music departments also offer several elective options. You can find information regarding Freshman Seminars at freshmanseminar.osu.edu. If you’re interested in electives to help make you a stronger student, ones that focus on career preparation, or ones that focus on health/wellness, check out ES EPSY 1159 and 1259; ESCE 5271; and ESCE 2272 Any course you are interested in taking that is not fulfilling a GE or major requirement can be an elective.

Question: There is a hold on my account and I can’t register for classes, what do I do?Answer: Make sure that you have completed your Financial Responsibility Statement. All students need to complete this each semester prior to enrolling in classes. If this does not resolve the issue, check in your Student Center for more detailed information about your hold and contact the appropriate office.

Question: The class I want to get into is full/wait listed. What can I do?Answer: If a class isn’t availabe, your first step is to put yourself on the waitlist and continue searching for open seats. Scheduling is an ongoing process, and while it isn't a guarantee of getting into the class, it's definitely something to try at this point. Just keep the parameters of the waistlist in mind:

Waitlisted courses do not count toward your total credit hours (so they won't help you reach full-time status).

You can only be in 18 credit hours, so leave enough hours for the class you're hoping to get into. For example, to be able to get into a 3 credit hour GE from the waitlist, you should enroll in no more than 15 other hours.

You should avoid time conflicts; you'll never be added to a class from the waitlist if it conflicts with another class you're already enrolled in.

Waitlists tend to run by the smallest class component, such as a lab or recitation rather than the lecture. You can try adding yourself to more than one waitlist for a course by waitlisting for different sections.

You can also keep searching for open sections, and if something becomes available, you could add it. Registration is live, so availability changes frequently!

You cannot be added from a waitlist if you are already enrolled in the class. If you do waitlist for a class, you can look at your class schedule for spring on your student center to

view your position on the waitlist. At first the status of the class should say “Waiting” and have the


number of your position on the list. Keep checking that each day, and if you get in, the status will change to “Enrolled.”

If you’re not in the class by the first day of the semester, and if you can attend the class (if there isn’t a time conflict and there are extra seats in the room), go during the first week. You could also take a Course Enrollment Permission form, available at http://exploration.osu.edu/contact-us/frequently-used-forms , to the class and ask the instructor for permission to enroll. Some departments have a different process, such as Math, Chemistry and Biology and Spanish.

Question: I failed/did poorly in a course that is required for my major. What should I do now?Answer: If you failed a class or did poorly in it, you could consider using the Grade Forgiveness rule which would allow you to retake the course. The grade earned on your second attempt would then get applied to your GPA while the first attempt would no longer.

Question: When can I start scheduling classes?Answer: Later in the term, you’ll be assigned an “Enrollment Appointment”, which is basically your enrollment window. You’ll receive notification prior to the start of your enrollment appointment when your appointment is viewable in your Student Center, and you should check your appointment at that time to know when you can begin scheduling. Assignment of enrollment appointment dates and times depends on a number of factors, including earned hours and student group affiliation. Reminder: Advising appointments fill up quickly during registration periods, so schedule in advance (1-2 weeks) to discuss scheduling options/plans for upcoming term, and take advantage of Same Day Express Appointments (dates listed in your workbook calendar) when needed.

Undergraduate Minors at OSU (cont.):


Major Elimination Game

Eliminate majors! Even if you know what you want to major in, it can be a good idea to have a solid backup plan in case you change your mind. From the complete list of OSU majors on page 90:Step 1: Go through the list of majors and eliminate anything that doesn’t interest you. At this stage, try not to think about time to degree, careers or competitiveness of majors.Step 2: Look at the remaining majors in the list and now begin to eliminate based on your knowledge of your academic strengths and the requirements of the majors.This is the point where you should write down up to 10 majors/minors you are considering at this time. Step 3: Use resources (your advisor, www.bls.gov/ooh, What Can I Do With This Major sheets) to explore career opportunities for the remaining majors. Step 4: Meet with an advisor to discuss admission requirements and time to degree for the majors remaining on your list.Keep in mind that this is a reflexive process and you may want to revisit all of these steps as you learn more about majors, yourself, and careers.If you have already chosen a major, you can do this exercise using the list of OSU minors on page Error: Reference source not found.

Using the results, list your best fit majors/minors (no more than 10):

1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.

Do your interests, strengths, and goals align? If not, how do they point in different directions? How will you resolve this? If they do align, how does this impact your decision-making process?

Pick one major and explain why you think it’s a good fit for your interests, strengths, and goals.
