Each college has an undergraduate curriculum and instruction (C&I) committee to review course and program proposals. The committee is chaired by a faculty member who coordinates the review and voting for the college. The college C&I chair also works with other college C&I chairs and the Associate Vice Provost for Curriculum to ensure all proposals are appropriately developed and considered by the university community.
Proposals for new academic programs are coordinated by the Associate Vice Provost for Curriculum. The General Education Council reviews offerings that impact General Education.
For information on developing a proposal in your college, contact your C&I chair.
