Approval Requirements and Policies

All curricular requirements, standards, and rules presented in the Undergraduate Catalog must be documented as having gone through the appropriate policy-making/amending and approval procedures as defined in the UT Permian Basin Handbook of Operating Procedures and the Academic Affairs Handbook. New or amended courses, curricula, and academic policies and regulations concerning undergraduate education become effective and are incorporated into the Undergraduate Catalog upon review and approval by the respective academic departments and colleges (if applicable), the Undergraduate Curriculum Committee, the Faculty Senate, and the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs and, if required, the President, the UT System Board of Regents, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. The Undergraduate Catalog is maintained by the Office of the Registrar which ensures that the Catalog accurately represents the programs and services of the institution.
