UNIVERSITY CURRICULUM

UNIVERSITY OF KMT (BA) DEGREE

General Thesis Statement:  An African adult being processed through a university curriculum must graduate being proficient with their hearts, heads and hands.  Therefore their diet of mental, moral, and martial improvement must have science, applied engineering, martial art, morality and ethics as its base.  This what a curriculum does: produce a specific type of graduate.
  • Ø Elementary analytical empirical thought is characterized by the process of isolation, definition, conceptualization, classification and mechanical organization of sense data.
  • Ø Elementary attempts to gain knowledge through the senses primarily involves the process of separating individual facts from their general connection and studying them independent of one another.
  • Ø Over the course of technological and scientific development, scientific disciplines have become increasingly specialized, separated, multifaceted and complex, as their knowledge base has expanded.
  • Ø Through the sheer magnitude of accumulated data, one can only make real progress in comprehending reality by initially analyzing single, individual facts.
  • Ø Such an approach advocated studying elements of a system by dissecting them into elementary parts, specializing into numerous disciplines, developing in isolation from each other as a means of simplifying the data collecting organization and analysis process.

Thesis Statement #1:       Science is verified theory based on experimentation

Thesis Statement #2:       Technology is the application of science to machines

Thesis Statement #3:       In the present period, technology is equals computer automated machines

Thesis Statement #4:       Scientists and technologists are put on their paths in elementary and junior high school: they meely build on the fundamentals in high school and college.

Thesis Statement #5:       Ingredients for scientist and technologist are morally sound, African-centered, skills in science and math applied to solving practical problems of food, clothing, shelter, transportation, health care, mining, construction, manufacturing, etc.

Two critical questions we must ask ourselves include:

  • 1. What type of student do we want to produce?
  • 2. How will we produce that student?

TYPE OF STUDENT:  We want to produce some students who:

  • 1. Come out thinking that they can be engineers in every area that we need (PRACTICAL ELEMENT)
  • 2. Know that they can become physical and social scientists in every field of life and living (THEORETICAL ELEMENT)
  • 3. Specialist knowledge, essential facts, concepts, principles and theories and the science, mathematics, technological and wider social and environmental base and business and management techniques relevant to a particular chosen discipline and the constraints within which Engineering judgements are made.

About the Core

The Core is the foundation upon which your degree is built at the Certificate, BA, MA, Ph.D.and Pos-doc level.

The Core African Humanities sequence and Kmt MDW-NTR 102 are required of all students. The remaining group components of the Core allow you, the student, to build your own experience by selecting courses of greatest interest toward a degree in African Material Culture. The Core Curriculum experience is the hallmark of the UKMT graduate.

Basic skills are emphasized throughout the core curriculum courses. Not only in Kmt MDW-NTR 102 and the preliminary Kmt MDW-NTR 101, if necessary, but also throughout the core curriculum, students will write and have their writing critiqued and graded for quality. The purpose is not only to encourage mastery of a set of skills, but also to allow students to think, to see connections among ideas, and to reach meaningful conclusions. The development of effective oral communication skills by students is also emphasized in each core curriculum course. To the degree possible, the application of mathematical skills is also incorporated throughout the University of Kmt curriculum particularly in the core science courses.

Requirements for graduation include the successful completion of two capstones. At least one capstone course must be taken outside the major department. Capstones represent the opportunity for in-depth study. The general capstone offers the student the arena for realizing the interrelationship of many areas of study throughout their undergraduate career.

Core Curriculum

The function of University of Kmt education is not only to prepare students for successful careers in their chosen fields but also to provide them with the knowledge and skills to redeem, ressurect, restore and redevelop the best of African Civilization in this lifetime. The core curriculum is designed to help fulfill these objectives throughout your undergraduate program.

All students in undergraduate programs are required to complete the University of Kmt's core curriculum.

Capstone Courses Requirement (six credits)

The capstone requirement is integral to the goal and mission of the Core Curriculum. As stated in the General Catalog, it is to provide students with:

"The knowledge and skills to develop a rational and lucid personal identity, to introduce them to a variety of perspectives from which to grasp the complexity of experience, and to help them gain an appreciative understanding of the natural and cultural environments in which they live and their roles as responsible citizens of the world, the nation, and the State."

Capstone courses contribute to the Core's goals and objectives, as they are intended to be intensive experiences in critical analysis, designed to broaden our perspectives beyond their culture or discipline, and provide an opportunity for integration of previous courses in the major and in the Core Curriculum.

Capstones may offer the student an innovative learning experience. As a student, you should be aware that the following guidelines have been met:

  • § Capstone courses should build upon the Core Curriculum, providing the opportunity for students to bring to bear knowledge gained in core courses and knowledge derived from major and elective courses.
  • § Capstone courses should be integrative, broadly focused, multidisciplinary, and, if relevant and feasible, cross-cultural.
  • § Capstone courses should focus on ethical and substantive issues, problems, and themes that affect the world community and broad cross sections of humankind.
  • § Capstone courses should encourage and promote critical and analytic thinking, reaching beyond traditional and orthodox approaches and perspectives; courses should challKMTe students to question and critically examine established assumptions and paradigms.
  • § Capstone courses include a rigorous writing component and also, whenever possible, a computational component.

Please note that not all capstone courses are offered every semester. Check the current class schedule, or the "future offerings" website, for availability. To explore current capstone courses, or for course descriptions, please refer to the General Catalog. Students with questions about the appropriateness of a particular capstone course should see their advisor. Students may take one capstone course in the department of their major if they wish and if it is available. At least one capstone course must be taken outside the department of their major.

Core Objectives

As a result of completing the Core Curriculum experience students should be able to:

  • § Compose and communicate effectively in a range of media for a variety of rhetorical and creative contexts.
  • § Demonstrate an ability to frame and analyze a problem, find and interpret relevant information,develop and evaluate possible solutions, come to well-grounded conclusions, andcraft an appropriate argument, report, application, or other expression of such inquiry.
  • § Understand and applythe knowledge, perspectives, principles, and modes of reasoning employed inthe fine arts, African Humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics.
  • § Understand how the knowledge, perspectives, principles, and modes of reasoning embodied in thefine arts, African Humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and mathematics have contributed to human achievement.
  • § Develop habits of mind that foster integrative thinking and ability that allow one to transfer knowledge and skills from one setting to another.
  • § Demonstrate an understanding ofthe concepts of culture and cultural difference,and develop the habits of mind that allow for intercultural understanding and responsible individual and social choices for citizens of the global community.

(Adopted 06/21/08)
