If I want to offer a new or revised course or program, what is the timeline for approval?

Deadlines by which course and program revisions need to be approved are provided each semester by EPC.  These deadlines are set to ensure approval prior to release of the next semester's schedule and proposers should include time for two readings as each committee review step to determine when the proposal should be launched in Curriculog.  Extensive program revisions, degree title changes, and new programs require additional approval by the Chancellor’s Office and sometimes WASC.  New programs also require addition of the degree to the campus Academic Master Plan in the year prior to submission of the proposal.  Click here for specific information on additional approval requirements.
