Curriculum Administrative Actions

Minor changes in curriculum are delegated by the Curriculum Committee to the Chair of the Department.

Program Directors may request of the Chair minor changes in course titles, course numbers, course descriptions. If the Chair determines that the changes are not substantive, he may make recommendations directly to the Academic Dean. The Chair will notify the Curriculum Committee when such changes are implemented, and these will be posted on the curriculum website.

If the Chair determines that the requested changes are so substantial that major changes may be required of the syllabus, he will indicate that the request for changes be directed to the Curriculum Committee.

This page serves as an archive of administrative actions that result in minor changes in curriculum.
