Deadlines for Course Proposals

At Smith, the Dean of Faculty’s office sends a request for course information for the following fall semester to the departments in December. This information is due back to the Dean's office in mid-February. Information about courses for the following spring is due in April. Please note that new courses need to be approved by the committee on academic priorities (CAP). The deadlines for new courses to be taught the following fall is November 15. So, if you are planning to teach a course in Fall 2010, you need to have submitted a course proposal form by Nov. 15, 2009. Similarly, for new courses to be taught in the spring the deadline is March 15.
