The Office of the Provost, in partnership with the Office of the University Registrar, has implemented two online Curriculum Inventory Management (CIM) systems — and — to manage Â鶹ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ's curriculum. These systems are designed to streamline the curriculum proposal process, including new course or program proposals, making changes to existing courses or programs, and ending courses or programs. All new course proposals and/or course changes should be submitted through CIM-Courses. All new programs, program closures or program changes should be submitted through CIM-Programs for college/school and university-level curriculum review.
