Establishment, Development, and Review of Educational Programs

Members of the Berkeley College faculty are expected to maintain, enhance, and promote the integrity, currency, and consistency of the curriculum. Faculty should expect students to adhere to comparable rules of conduct and academic standards in all Berkeley courses, on-site and online. Regardless of the campus at which they are offered or the delivery mode, all courses must be based upon master syllabi, produce comparable measurable student learning objectives, and demonstrate high levels of substance and scholarship.

Although all curricula are reviewed on a regular basis, each curriculum undergoes an in-depth program review every five years. New programs are reviewed two years after implementation. In some situations a focused program review may be required at times other than the regularly scheduled reviews. Focused reviews, when submitted, do not change the scheduled two- or five-year requirement. They should be seen as interim reviews when requested mid-cycle.
