Course Scheduling
The course schedule is a collaborative effort between department SAOs/CAOs, Faculty, the Course Scheduler, and the Office of the Registrar. Departments work to compose the teaching plan for a given quarter based on budgets and student needs. Once the teaching plan is complete, it is then provided to the Course Scheduler. At that time, the Course Scheduler begins to work with faculty to collect all schedule details, all in adherence to Room Scheduling policy. Once all the schedule details have been gathered and a course schedule has been completed for each department, the course schedule is submitted to the Registrar’s Office for classroom placement and all other schedule finalizations so the course schedule(s) can be approved. The approved course schedule by the Registrar’s Office will then become available for student enrollment.
