New Programs and Program Changes
The UCIL Office will support curriculum development through policy and governance advice, editorial support and strategic visioning. In this section, you will find information on new programs, program changes, and degree determination.
Academic units develop new courses and programs; they also propose modifications and deletions to courses and programs. The academic unit then submits the curriculum item to the appropriate approval committees. Once the committees approve the change, the curriculum item is operational in goSFU, the Academic Calendar and the Academic Progress Report (APR) per the approved effective date.
Because the approval process involves lots of forms and adherence to the established guidelines, Senate and Academic Services (SAS) developed this site to provide access to forms, templates, guidelines, deadlines and resources.
