There are two graduate curriculum committees. One is the Graduate Course Review Committee. The other is the Graduate Programs Committee.
The Course Review Committee typically meets once a month during the course of each semester. Refer to the list of dates for upcoming meetings.
Refer to the Graduate Curriculum Changes page for information about the process and forms.
The Graduate Programs Committee reviews, recommends, and/or approves changes to existing graduate programs or the establishment of new graduate certificate or degree programs. The Program Review Committee works closely with the Faculty Senate to facilitate the standard five and 10 year academic department reviews when graduate programs are involved.
Any department with a graduate program that seeks to create and add new courses at the 500, 600, or 700 level would do so through the Graduate Course Review Committee process; the same is true for graduate departments that seek to make changes to existing graduate courses (title, description, number of credits, prerequisites, etc.). If, however, a department wants to create a new graduate certificate, a new graduate program, or make changes to existing graduate certificates or programs (including a change in the degree program requirements, a change of required courses, a change to the culminating experience, etc.), these all go to the Graduate Programs Committee.

All processing and appoint offers and paperwork is done through the Graduate College. Here is helpful information for those who wish to hire a graduate assistant.
