A proposed termination of the Sexuality Certificate Program will merge courses offered under the program into the Department of Women’s Studies.

The proposal will also result in name changes, including changing Bachelor of Arts Program in Women’s Studies to the Bachelor of Arts Program in Gender. The changes will become effective if the state Board of Regents approve them at its monthly meeting Wednesday.

The proposed termination and name changes are in an effort to “make better use of resources, streamline administrative functions, and preserve important course offerings for students,” according to the regents’ docket.
