Provost’s Announcement on Departmental Websites

Below is a statement from the Provost we are pleased to share:

Department Chairs/Directors and Graduate Program Directors:

Last spring we launched an effort to streamline the content of undergraduate program requirements and courses currently maintained on departmental websites by developing a direct, automatic link to the catalog (see History and Management as examples).  The integration with the new catalog system (Acalog), makes this process seamless and requires little effort on behalf of the department web content managers; links to the programs in the catalog will update automatically each year the new catalog is released. We are now expanding this effort to include graduate program information.

The purpose of this initiative is to enhance the use of departmental websites by providing clear, consistent and up-to-date information for students, making it easier for them to navigate their curriculum through direct use of the catalog.  In the coming months, the project team will be reaching out to the web content managers in each department to provide the details needed for the graduate program roll-out.

Our goal is to make the catalog the single authoritative source for degree requirements regardless of the site from which they are accessed.

Thanks for your assistance with this effort.

Joan
