Proposal Tracker

The Proposal Tracker spreadsheet allows tracking of submitted course and curriculum/program proposals through the legislative process. There are separate spreadsheets for course proposals (undergraduate and graduate), temporary courses, program (changes and new), and new centers.

Curricular Proceedings

Curricular procedures have been developed in order to facilitate the integration of curricular proposals, legislative action, the e-Campus Course Schedule, and the URI catalog.  Faculty, department chairs, and college curriculum committees are asked to give very careful consideration to the completion of curricular forms.
