Course Schedule Creation Best Practices

  • The Academics Leadership Team (ALT) will create and distribute “Course Schedule Priorities” prior to the beginning of the course schedule creation process.
  • Assistant Deans will meet with Coordinators, along with the Dean and Vice President as requested, to discuss historical enrollment data, the distributed “Course Schedule Priorities,” discipline/division schedule-related needs, and other discipline/division schedule-related needs.
  • Coordinators will work with faculty to create course schedules.
  • The goal for each program/discipline is to create an efficient course schedule that meets the anticipated needs of students.
  • While faculty preferences are considered, they are not guaranteed, especially if they impede the goal of creating an efficient course schedule that meets the anticipated needs of students.
  • Assistant Deans will meet with Coordinators to review schedules.
  • Assistant Deans will submit schedules to the Registrar's Office.
  • The ALT will conduct a meta-analysis of the schedule; extended campus directors and the Registrar will be invited to attend this gathering.
  • Changes to the schedule will be made and escrowed courses will be identified prior to the schedule “going to print."
