CourseDog - Academic Program Narrative Updates

The Programs section of the CourseDog catalog has entries for every academic program on campus (BA, PhD, Minors, etc.) that provides information about the requirements for the program along with some descriptive information about the program; including course highlights, outcomes, career opportunities and more.

The updates to the degree requirements go through an annual revision process overseen by the colleges and Academic Senate. The narrative updates go through a separate update process as part of the annual catalog updates.
