Faculty member submits completed form and syllabus to Chairperson of Graduate Council ten days prior to scheduled Graduate Council Course and Program Approval Meeting (First Tuesday of each month).  The Chair will place syllabus on agenda.  Please attend the meeting or at least be available if the Council has any questions.  Your syllabus may be tabled if the Council is unable to receive answers to questions.
 

If approved, Chairperson will forward the Council's recommendation to the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.
 

However, if not approved or if tabled, Chairperson will return the syllabus to the faculty member for possible revision.
