Revise an academic program

Through the Academic Planning Unit, we provide support and advice to faculties and departments that are considering program changes.

We provide advice on proposal development, recommended consultation, governance approval pathways, and timelines. Our goal is to make our approval process as streamlined as possible while fulfilling the requirements of Senate, Board of Governors, and Ministry. As stated in the Terms of Reference, the Senate Committee on Planning will submit recommendations to Senate concerning proposals for the creation or disestablishment of programs, faculties, schools, departments, centres and institutes, and major modifications of existing programs.
