Faculty are the guardians of the curriculum and, as such, the Curriculum Committee has the responsibility to oversee curricular requests not just from our departments/centers, but from every other unit at the University. Every curricular proposal begins and ends with faculty oversight. There are opportunities for experimental courses and valuable resources to support curriculum development.

Process

  • Beginning the Curricular Process

    The process begins with faculty wishing to modify the current curriculum in some manner and presenting such changes to the department for review and Departmental approval.

    The first step after departmental review/approval is for curriculum forms to be completed by the department and submitted to the Nicole Wertheim College of Nursing and Health Sciences (NWCNHS) Curriculum Committee.

    Curriculum forms and information are available at the Faculty Senate website.

  • Continuing the Curricular Process

    Once the NWCNHS committee approves a submission:

    • The Associate Dean, who acts as a liaison to the Committee, reviews the submissions, makes any necessary changes, approves them on the Dean’s behalf, and forwards them to the NWCNHS Curriculum Committee Chair for submission to faculty senate.
    • The Faculty Senate prepares the submissions for publication in the University Curriculum Committee Bulletin.
    • The Graduate and Undergraduate Councils review program submissions.
    • The University Curriculum Committee reviews new course proposals, course change/deletions, and program proposals. Some program requests require a hearing.
    • Approved submissions are forwarded to the Faculty Senate.
    • The chairs of the University Curriculum Committee and the two councils sign the forms.
    • On the floor of the Faculty Senate, the chair of the University Curriculum Committee presents a motion to approve all items on a specific bulletin. Although usually the Senate approves the bulletin as a whole, senators may question any item being presented.
    • After the senators approve the motion, the chair of the Faculty Senate signs the forms on behalf of the Senate.

     

    The forms are reviewed by the Provost’s Office. Those approved are sent to the Registrar’s Office for processing:

    • The new course proposals are sent to Tallahassee where they are forwarded to the faculty discipline representative who will assign the course a number. Once we receive a new number, a copy of the course proposal with the new number written in is sent to the department.
    • Course change/deletions are processed internally.
    • Program changes are recorded.
    • When the new programs are assigned a code, the Registrar’s Office notifies the dean’s office and the department chair.
    • All changes are made to catalog
  • Hearings

    All proposals will go through one or more hearings during the Curriculum and Faculty Senate process prior to final approval.  Please refer to the grids below to find out which hearings will be required for your proposal. Note exempt cases listed below the grids.

  • Committee Responsibilities

    The NWCNHS Curriculum Committee  meets six times a year. Prior to meeting the agenda and proposals will be posted on the NWCNHS website. The committee members will elect a chair and a vice chair at the first meeting. The chair will also serve as the College representative to the University Curriculum Committee. The vice chair will serve as chair whenever the chair is absent. The chair’s and vice chair’s terms are for that academic year.

    Members should familiarize themselves with the proposals, particularly those of their own departments. If a member has questions about the submission from another department s/he should be ready to present the questions/concerns when the submission is brought up for discussion. At the meeting, someone from the submitting department will describe the proposal and explain why it is needed. The committee members will have the opportunity to ask questions, make suggestions, and/or raise objections. After a short discussion period, a vote will be taken. If the submission passes by a simple majority it will be considered approved.

    The most effective departmental representative is the one who works closely with the appropriate members of the department in the process of creating the submission. That way, the representative, armed with information about the process learned from the meetings, can make sure that submission is as correct as possible and addresses issues of concern to the committee.

    Sometimes the members of the committee will approve a submission pending requested changes or additional information. The departmental representative is responsible to convey that information to the appropriate colleagues so that the changes required by the committee are made. Any changes or additional information required must be submitted to the Dean's Office following the NWCNHS curriculum committee meeting. The Dean’s Office will not review any submissions that do not meet the conditions set by the committee.

    Here are some of the recurring questions with submissions:

    1. Overlap – the material overlaps with that studied in another discipline. At the meeting, the representative of the other notices that overlap and the lack of consultation (there is no letter from the chair) and requests such a letter
    2. Incomplete submissions – important information is missing. Submissions should be checked to ensure that all the required information is included.

    The committee member is responsible for reviewing the submission and evaluating its value to the curriculum. The Dean’s Office will review the submissions for errors and inconsistencies.

    At the end of the academic year, if the member is not continuing as departmental representative, s/he should make the effort to contact the new representative and share information about the committee and the curricular process that will help the new departmental representative be a more effective member.
