Changes to the Undergraduate Curriculum
Course Change Process
To request course changes, additions, and deletions in the College of Arts and Science, a faculty member must submit the Proposed Additions and Revisions to Curriculum (PARC) Form, which will be authorized in that system by the department chair or program director. Once the form is submitted, the Curriculum Committee then considers the request. The Curriculum Committee must review all courses to be listed in the Undergraduate Catalog and the online schedule (YES).
To ensure timely review of new courses, all course proposals must be authorized by the department chair or program director of the course subject area by the deadlines posted below.
The Curriculum Committee ensures that all course descriptions comply with the required format for the Undergraduate Catalog. When writing a course description, please refer to the Course Description Guidelines.
See the guidelines for submitting a Maymester course proposal.
