The University is committed to documenting and maintaining the institution’s records of curricula in a manner that is accurate, understandable, sustainable, and consistent with best practices in the field of curriculum management.
PURPOSE
Student Governance and Policies, Chapter 115, Section 2 charges and authorizes the University Committee on Curriculum Administration (UCCA) to provide substantive guidance to the Office of the University Registrar (OUR) on matters concerning the formal review, approval, and institutional documentation of courses. The committee is called upon by the OUR to review proposals for new courses and course changes that present questions or issues that fall outside the scope of the OUR’s procedural review. Additionally, the committee may engage the OUR on matters pertaining to any course proposal or the course proposal review process.
By design, the UCCA works closely with the University Committee on General Education.
