To provide an electronic academic program and course approval system for creating, modifying, and accessing degree programs, individual courses, and catalog information.

We have well-meaning processes and systems for managing our curriculum – the efficiency and utility of which have been lessened as we have grown and become more complex. Inaccurate and inconsistent quality of information Delays and inefficiencies Duplication of effort Paper-intensive Lack of synthetized information Lack of historical record and accountability No reporting or data analysis capabilities

Graduation Analytics: A comprehensive effort to identify and mitigate barriers to successful graduation both in terms of program design and student performance.

1. Maintain accurate account of all course offerings and degree programs

2. Integrate course, degree, and catalog information with Banner and degree audit systems
