THE UNIVERSITY CURRICULUM (UCC) COMMITTEE

The University Curriculum Committee (UCC) has an advisory role to the Faculty Senate. The UCC would not supersede individual college/school curriculum committees. Those committees would still have control over their programs and meeting accreditation standards. The UCC would take on the roles of the DC, Outcomes, Assessment, and EPI committees plus be charged with coordination of interdisciplinary programs and oversight of course/program duplication and synergies across the campus. The UCC would also serve an ad hoc advisory role to the Provost and the Associate Provost for Interdisciplinary Studies to ensure that policy is implemented in a coordinated manner across the campus.

The UCC will have faculty representation from each of the four divisions of Arts and Sciences and from the colleges/schools of Business and Public Administration, Education, Journalism, Law, Pharmacy, and the Libraries. One administrative representative from Drake assistant and associate deans (CAAD) will serve on the committee and the DC Director will be an ex officio member. Members will serve two year, staggered terms of office. This Committee will report to the Senate at least once a year. The Chair is encouraged to manage and direct issues with the utilization of various subcommittees and task forces. These task-originated groups may have membership outside the UCC and report to UCC. All members of subcommittees or task forces will be authorized by the UCC.
