R401文档被发送到国家审批。 The title “Program Development Document” (PDD) was used as a replacement term for the R401 in the past. It is a form that must be filled out to receive program OR administrative unit approval from an outside body such as USHE or NWCCU. 它的正式名称为R401。

院系投票是课程设置过程的一部分。 It offers transparency and allows all full-time faculty members a chance to participate in or be made aware of any curricular changes, additions, or deletions

This box is called the “eco system” and indicates programs and/or courses that specifically list this course. If you are submitting a modification to an existing course that involves a prefix, number, or total credit hour change, then EVERY program and/or course in this list must also be submitted to reflect the change to this course. Call the 课程办公室 if you need assistance.

转到CourseLeaf CIM中的特定课程/程序。 In the upper right corner, under “IN WORKFLOW” you can see where your item is in the workflow. Queues shown in green have already approved, the orange shows its current location, the ones in gray have not reviewed the item yet. 这些队列指示器也是链接。 You can click on the queue/link you need to send an email requesting a rollback, or in some cases, if the queue is managed by a faculty member, they may be willing to make the edit for you. 您也可以通过电子邮件向课程办公室发送回退请求。

Any change that affects multiple programs within your department must be submitted by a faculty member and all the changes must be reviewed and approved together. If a course change affects a program(s) outside of your department, contact the Curriculum Office to see if your change is eligible for a facilitation request. If UCC approves the facilitation request, the curriculum office will update all courses and programs outside your department once the course change is fully approved. If the change involves moving from upper division to lower division or vice versa, or if the course is a required course in a program, the submitter must notify all  associated department chairs and associate deans of the change, and they will need to submit the needed change.

课程的截止日期是明确的。 However, if your change/addition is required by an outside accrediting body or is required by local industry, you may be able to receive an exception. Please email the current UCC Chair, (and cc Debbie Ferguson) to see if your course or program may warrant an exception.

课程截止日期将根据课程提案的类型而有所不同。 New programs, program modifications, and program deletions that require a R401 will need additional time for internal reviews as well as outside approvals and are due much earlier. The curriculum webpage has upcoming deadlines and the curriculum timeline process that you can review to know where you should be in the process. 联系 the 课程办公室 with questions.

经常检查你的课程建议的进度是很重要的。 You can see where your item is by pulling up the particular item in CourseLeaf CIM. In the upper right corner, under “IN WORKFLOW” you can see where your item is in the workflow. Queues shown in green have already approved, the orange shows its current location, the ones in gray have not reviewed the item yet. In addition, ALWAYS read your emails from CourseLeaf CIM. If an item is rolled back, an automatic email is sent to the faculty member listed as the initiator. In this case, you will need to make necessary edits and resubmit. Once your item has been fully approved and processed, you will receive an automatic email notifying you of this. It is the responsibility of the faculty member that submits to monitor their proposals.

Before students can register for upper-division coursework (3000 or higher), they must qualify for University Advanced Standing (UAS) by:  Completing or being registered for Quantitative Literacy (MAT 1030 Quantitative Reasoning or higher).  And, completing or being registered for ENGL 2010 Intermediate Academic Writing or equivalent. All courses 3000 or higher must have UAS as a pre-requisite. 联系 the 课程办公室 for instructions to submit an exception request.

使用“高级地位”或“初级地位”作为先决条件有一个主要缺点。 A student’s status does not change until courses have been completed (and grades have been issued). That means that if a student is currently in their junior year right now, they can begin to register for fall courses as soon as registration opens in the first of April. However, if they want a course that requires senior status, they will not be able to register for that course until May, after grades come out. This likely means that advisors will have extra work giving overrides to students that ask for it, and students that do not ask will have a delayed registration. So, only select junior or senior status if it is imperative, and it will not adversely affect your students.
