Instructions for Proposing Curricular Changes

Academic units interested in proposing changes to the curriculum (course-related and programmatic) or academic regulations must complete the appropriate forms, provide the necessary documentation, and submit to the academic unit academic affairs committee chair. Once the forms have been approved by the unit faculty body, follow the routing to secure required signatures before submitting to the campus Academic Affairs Committee chair for review by the full committee. Proposals which must undergo external approval must reach the campus AAC committee in no later than the date for the final agenda sent out in the fall semester. Revisions not requiring external consideration should reach the AAC in time for review by that committee and to be included on the March Faculty Senate agenda. Consult the faculty governance calendar for submission deadlines.

Information provided on forms must comply with the relevant style and content catalog requirements. Modifications to the forms must be approved by the AAC committee (and Graduate Committee in the case of graduate program forms) and by the Faculty Senate.
