Cluster Course Proposal Forms

Faculty can propose a new cluster course, or that an existing cluster course be added to an additional cluster, as long as it fulfills the requirements of a particular cluster. If you have questions about whether or not a class qualifies, please refer to the cluster listings and contact the cluster coordinator.

To propose a course, complete the cover sheet along with the appropriate form and send the original plus 3 copies to Katherine Barich in University Studies. Cluster course proposals are due November 6, 2009.  Proposals submitted by this due date will be reviewed for inclusions in clusters beginning in AY 2010 - 2011.

For a course to qualify, the following criteria apply:

  • Proposed 400-level courses cannot be cross listed with 500-level courses.
  • Clusters need to balance 300-level and 400-level course offerings: approximately 50% at 300-level and 50% at 400-level.
  • Omnibus numbers can be proposed, but their titles must be consistant throughout the time that they are offered.
