Course Creation

The University of Wyoming utilizes Modern Campus Curriculum (formally Curriculog), an electronic academic program and course approval system for creating, modifying, deleting individual courses. Faculty and staff involved in departmental, college, and university-level review may view the progress of their proposals from start to finish.

Courses at the University of Wyoming are governed by Academic Affairs, the Office of the Registrar, Transfer Relations, individual colleges, the Board of Truestees, and the University Course Review Committee.

Academic Affairs

Academic Affairs has separate Academic Policies and Procedures. Certain new items such as degrees and certificates need to go through the approval for that program through the Board of Trustees meeting at the same time as the new or modified courses are going through the University Course Review Committee. Please contact Academic Affairs for questions about the process of timing degrees with course creation.

Individual Colleges

Each college has their own timelines for when it is necessary to submit the courses into the Curriculum portal in time for College Committee meetings. Please contact the college specific undergraduate Assitant Dean, Academic Director, or University Course Review Committee member for specific deadlines for submission.

Board of Trustees 

The Board of Trustees has their own timeline for approving new college programs/degrees/certificates/ect. Please reference their website for timelines.
