3)Discussion of UCF Flow of Proposals
A discussion of the Flow of Proposals was led by J. Bloch. The following issues and suggestions were discussed:
- Overall, the sense of the committee was favorable for the current system.
- A visual flow chart should accompany the written Flow of Proposals to improve understanding of the process and timelines.
- The current system is somewhat confusing and should be clarified.
- NMC is valuable because it shifts some workload away from the UCF as a whole.
- A copy of completed course proposals and course revisions should be returned to the department at the end of the process.
- Combine the Course Proposal and Course Revision Forms since most new courses will result in a Program change.
