New and Revised Programs

The Office of the Provost is responsible for coordination and support of academic programming, including the management of procedures for new programs and modifications to curriculum. All proposals for new academic programs and requests for revisions are subject to review. 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).
