Graduate Council Review

6. On approval by the school- or division-based committee, curriculum and program proposals will be forwarded to the Graduate Council for consideration. Copies of the proposal must be sent to the Dean and the Chair of Graduate Council 14 days before the next scheduled meeting of the Graduate Council. The respective academic Dean, and the Department Chair, Program Director, or principal advocate will be invited to the Graduate Council meeting during which time proposals from their college, school, department, or division will be discussed. The advocates may participate in these discussions.
7. On approval by the Graduate Council, curriculum proposals will be submitted by the sponsoring department to the Office of the Registrar and can be revised only to reflect catalog copy. The Provost’s designee on the Graduate Council serves as a liaison to the University Curriculum Committee and can recommend a subsequent review by the University Curriculum Committee in cases where a proposal may significantly impact the undergraduate program or curriculum.
