To guide all academic units in preparing their curricular proposals, UP OVPAA issued OVPAA Memorandum 2023-24 (Curricular Proposal Submission to OVPAA). All resources included in the memorandum are posted below.
CURRICULAR PROPOSAL TEMPLATES
Academic units are required to follow the templates provided by the OVPAA. All proposals should have the following:
- Endorsement letter duly signed by the Chancellor. It should include the date of endorsement of the UC Curriculum Committee (CC) or the University Council (UC), whichever is applicable depending on what step the curricular proposal is based on the review process.
- Include the date of endorsement of the CC and UC in the upper right-hand corner of the main proposal, whichever is applicable. (ex. CC 3 Sep 20221 UC 10 October 2022)
- Include version number following the format below
CC 1.0 for proposals endorsed by the CC for review of the OVPAA. If the OVPAA has further comments that require revisions, submit the revised proposal to OVPAA and change the version number to ‘CC 1.1 ‘ and so on.
UC 1.0 for proposals endorsed by the UC for review of the OVPAA. Same version numbering as that of CC (a). - Include continuous line and page numbers. This is for easier review and referencing.
CURRICULAR PROPOSAL FLOWCHARTS
Note: All CC-endorsed curricular proposals should be endorsed by the OVPAA for UC action before it can be part of the agenda of the UC.
