Curricular Affairs

We collaborate with faculty and staff to improve how we educate and innovate at the University of Arizona in some of the following ways:

• Providing reports to the Arizona Board of Regents regarding Academic Organizations, Academic Program Review and Curriculum
• Partnering with Online & Distance Education and Arizona International to extend the UA’s reach through new domestic and global locations.
• Facilitating requests for course catalog changes, including new courses, course modifications and inactivations
• Launching new academic programs and modifying existing academic programs
• Verifying that proposed curricular changes meet University and ABOR policy as well as WSCUC accreditation standards
• Assisting faculty with handbook and website review during Academic Program Review
