Committee Charge and Membership
Charge
The Program Review Committee's charge is to coordinate reviews, conducted periodically by each academic program, within larger accreditation cycles of the University and ensure this produces improvement in quality of educational programs and academic administration. A Program Review report is produced by each program consisting of a self-study, external reviewers’ team report, and an action plan. Program review continues with feedback from school and university administrators.
In fulfilling this charge, committee members will:
- Review requirements of the accrediting body when applicable,
- Coordinate schedules for program reviews within accreditation cycles in collaboration with schools and programs,
- Develop and maintain online resources for data management that will aid individual program during their reviews,
- Disseminate action plan executive summary data,
- Ensure that school and university administrators respond to the review of each program.
