The Office of the Provost is responsible for coordination and support of academic programming, including the management of approval procedures for new programs and modifications to current curriculum. All proposals for new academic programs and requests for revisions are subject to review by multiple governing bodies. The nature of the proposal determines which stages of review are required, including but not limited to: college-level, external review, university-level, Board of Trustees and state-level, regional accreditor (NWCCU). 

The program approval process has been recently updated as a response to continuous improvement activity. Contact Program Manager Denita Strietelmeier with questions about the changes.
