[VPAAEtal] University Core Curriculum Committee -- Call for 2024 Core Curriculum Course Proposals

[Academic Affairs]

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has tasked the TAMUC University Core Curriculum Committee with implementing core curriculum guidelines. This committee certifies each year that our existing core curriculum meets state coordinating board standards and has the authority to approve new courses for inclusion in the university's general education requirements.

Departments proposing new core curriculum courses must complete the attached proposal form, which outlines the course, its intended purpose, and its alignment with the selected Foundational Component of the core curriculum. Proposal packets must include a draft syllabus that details the course's learning outcomes and demonstrates how it meets the Core Objectives of the chosen component area. Additionally, syllabi should provide examples of course content and assignments that illustrate compliance with the requirements of the selected component area. Please ensure that all syllabi submitted as part of the packet utilize the TAMUC syllabus template.

The proposal form is attached to this email and must be submitted to the Core Curriculum Committee Chair, Dr. Derrick McKisick, at derrick.mckisick at tamuc.edu<mailto:derrick.mckisick at tamuc.edu>, no later than 5 PM on September 14, 2024. The committee may approve the proposal, reject it, or return it to the department for revisions.

Additionally, the submitting department must enter the relevant course information into Course Leaf to meet Registrar Office deadlines. If approved, the course will be available to students as part of the core curriculum for the fall 2025 semester.





Thanks,

Derrick
