[VPAAEtal] Core Curriculum Call for Proposals

[Academic Affairs]

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board charged the TAMUC University Core Curriculum committee with the implementation of core curriculum guidelines. The committee now certifies each year that our existing core curriculum adheres to state coordinating board standards and has the authority to approve new courses to become part of the university's general education requirements.



Departments interested in proposing new core curriculum courses must complete the attached proposal describing the course, its intended purpose, and the Foundational Component Area where it would be placed. Proposal packets must include a draft syllabus showing the course's learning outcomes and how the Core Objectives of the Foundational component area will be met. Syllabi should provide examples of course content and assignments that address the requirements of the selected component area.



The proposal form is attached to this email and must be submitted to the Core Curriculum Committee Chair, Dr. Derrick McKisick, derrick.mckisick at tamuc.edu<mailto:derrick.mckisick at tamuc.edu>, no later than 5 PM on September 16, 2022. The committee will approve the proposal, refuse it, or send it back to the department for revisions.



The submitting department must enter the relevant course information into Course Leaf to meet Registrar Office deadlines. If approved, the course will be open to students as part of the core curriculum for the fall 2023 semester and beyond.


Thanks,
Derrick
