Bryn Mawr College

Guidelines for Submission of New Course Proposal

• Complete New Course Proposal form
• Submit proposals to Joann O’Doherty in Dean’s Office.

• Deadline: Monday, March 4.  Questions involving late submissions may not be resolved in time to ensure inclusion in both the Bryn Mawr and Haverford on-line registration systems or the Tri-Co Course Guide.
• Email as an attachment the New Course Proposal form to Joann O’Doherty (jodohert@brynmawr.edu) in Dean’s Office (please do not use forms from earlier years).   Scanned pdf versions of handwritten submissions will greatly speed the submission process.
• While the new course instructor likely will initiate the proposal process, Curriculum Committee expects to receive submissions from the chairperson of the sponsoring department.
• Allow enough time to obtain confirmations from
  • the chairperson or coordinator of counterpart or related department(s) or program(s) at Haverford that the new course will enhance rather than duplicate existing curricula; and
  • the chairperson of any department cross-listing the new course or any program that will grant credit for its completion.

• Departments will need to create opportunities to assist instructors new to the Bi-Co community in understanding expectations for courses that contribute to major, minor other curricular requirements.

For additional information and forms, see Curriculum Committee website and the Provost's website.
