New degrees

Creating & changing undergraduate programs

Creating new undergraduate programs is an extensive process that requires multiple levels of approvals. The process may take twelve to thirty-six months depending on the format of the proposed program. Proposal requirements for new programs are set by the GFO Executive Council. Changes to existing programs are reviewed by Campus Council on Academic Standards and Curriculum (CCASC).

Notice of Proposal

A (NOP) must be completed for new programs or substantive changes to existing programs. An NOP completing tri-campus review is valid for fifteen calendar months after the month the NOP completes tri-campus review.

For example: an NOP completing tri-campus review any time in May is valid through the end of August of the following year. A program proposal submitted to the University Curriculum Office after the NOP is no longer valid requires a new NOP submission by the unit.
