Academic Policies
University Policy on Semester Course Syllabi
Each faculty member shall prepare and distribute, without charge, to each student within one week of the first meeting of the class a semester course syllabus. The syllabus will be consistent with course content and catalog description, which was approved by the Curriculum Committee of the University Senate for the initial course offering or revision.
The semester course syllabus is a vehicle of communication to promote student academic planning and to avoid misunderstandings of course plan and requirements.
It is recommended that each syllabus include:
the faculty member's name, office location, telephone number, and office hours
an outline of the course content, objectives, and prerequisites, as appropriate
information about the required textbook(s) with title, author, and edition, and any other required materials
information on the determination of grades, including the weight, types, and scheduling of evaluations, other planned requirements, and expectation for class participation
statement of policies and/or penalties for make-up exams and late submission of assignments
