Curricular Proceedings

Curricular procedures have been developed in order to facilitate the integration of curricular proposals, legislative action, the e-Campus Course Schedule, and the URI catalog.  Faculty, department chairs, and college curriculum committees are asked to give very careful consideration to the completion of curricular forms.
