GRADUATE COURSE REVIEW COMMITTEE
REPORT TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL

The Graduate Course Review Committee, composed of three members, is an advisory committee to the Graduate Dean on program modifications (Forms 90 involving adding, modifying and dropping of graduate courses.) Approved by the Graduate Council, February 1998, the evaluation of new courses will remain with the Graduate Course Review Committee while terminations and certain modifications, such as number changes, title changes, credit hour changes, description changes, and prerequisite changes, will be evaluated and approved administratively by the Graduate Dean. Forms 90 are examined using Criteria for Evaluation of Forms 90.
