Academic Affairs

Academic Affairs personnel have primary responsibility for the organization, management and delivery of the College’s curriculum and academic programs. Delivering the curriculum is a collaborative effort.  In collaboration with faculty governance and the Arts and Sciences Curriculum Committee, this office reviews all requests for curricular initiatives, including proposals for new and revised programs and courses.  The Academic Affairs area manages the instructional planning process, impacting instructional budgeting and personnel decisions.  In conjunction with the Office of Enrollment Management, we coordinate undergraduate student recruitment activities, and, with the University Office of the Registrar, we plan and manage the College’s schedule of classes.

Delivery of the curriculum and academic programs includes:

  • Approval of new graduate courses. 
  • Leadership in delivering cohesive, comprehensive education in the College of Arts and Sciences.
  • Oversight of curriculum, degree, and course modifications, enrollment management and course capacity management, and instructional needs.
  • Coordination with departments and Registrar’s office and Academic and Transfer Advising Services.
  • Management of the instructional planning process.
  • Maintenance and support of the college master schedule in PeopleSoft for summer, fall, winter and spring terms.
  • Coordination of large classroom assignments and midterm/final exam schedules.
