NOTE:  The above charts will be modified to reflect any changes to the curricular routing procedure as they occur.

1. Departmental
   Changes, additions, and deletions to a department's list of courses, and modifications of any kind to a curriculum model for a program or program option begin in the department itself.
   
   
2. College/School
   If approved by the department, the proposed changes go to the curriculum committee in the college or school.
   
   
3. Submission to the Office of Associate Provost for Undergraduate Studies
   All curriculum-related requests (including those at the graduate level) should be sent to the Coordinator for Curriculum Management (Kevin Snyder).  He processes and directs all proposals, routing them to the appropriate committee(s).
   
   
   • Undergraduate and Professional Courses:
     Every attempt is made to schedule courses for review by the University Curriculum Committee in the order that they are received.  Once approved by the UCC, any revisions that the committee has requested as a condition of approval must be made.  Revisions that are deemed minor or editorial in nature will be made by the Coordinator for Curriculum Management; revisions that have implications in terms of course content, learning objectives, experiential goals, etc., will need to be made by the faculty member whose name is associated with the course.
     Once all necessary revisions have been made to the curricular proposal, it is signed by the UCC Chair.  For undergraduate courses numbered 4999 and lower, see step 4.  For piggy-backed (5000/6000) and graduate-level courses, see below.
     
   • Graduate Courses:
     Graduate courses must be reviewed by the Graduate Council.  Once approved by the Graduate Council, any revision that the committee has requested as a condition of approval must be made.  Such revisions (e.g.: course content, learning objectives, experiential goals, etc.), will need to be made by the faculty member whose name is associated with the course.
     
     
4. Input into Banner Course Inventory
   Once the Chair signs the approved course, it is input into the Banner course inventory and may be taught.  If there is a change to an existing course, the departmental staff will create a new section.
