Campus Curricula Committee Report June 20, 2013 Course Renumbering Initiative • Initiated by Department Chairs Council in 2009 • Main problems with current numbering: • Running out of available 3XX and 4XX course numbers • Working graduate students having trouble obtaining tuition reimbursement from employers for 3XX courses • Other institutions not recognizing 3XX courses as graduate level for transfer

  6. Campus Curricula Committee Report June 20, 2013 • It would be beneficial to our students to have the new course numbers be effective sooner rather than later, which is why the Course Renumbering Committee expedited the process to give Faculty Senate the opportunity to consider it at their June 2013 meeting rather than delaying for an entire year

  7. Campus Curricula Committee Report June 20, 2013 • Proposed course numbering scheme and accompanying FAQ accessed through the Provost’s website at: http://provost.mst.edu/secure/courserenumberingcommittee/ The Campus Curricula Committee moves for the approval of the course renumbering proposal consisting of the course renumbering scheme document and FAQ as posted on the Provost’s website.
