Undergraduate Curriculog Proposal System

Approval Workflow Process
Each proposal has a unique workflow based on the provided answers to certain form fields (e.g., General Education attribute or Non-General Education attribute, curriculum change, SCNS, etc.).  When every step in the approval workflow process has been approved, then the proposal is considered completed and will be pushed into the Undergraduate catalog.

Approving
Advances the proposal to the next step in the approval workflow process. Indicated with a “thumbs-up” or “thumbs-down” icon.

Completed Proposal
When every step in the approval workflow of a proposal has been approved. The proposal is considered completed and approved.

Concurrency Agreement Form
This form is completed and loaded to the proposal when the impact report indicates there are other courses and/or programs impacted by the course’s change(s). All impact parties must sign the Concurrency Agreement Form.

Impact Report
When making a revision to an existing course, an impact report will be run to see all courses and/or programs impacted by this course’s change. This will aid in determining which departments, if any, need to be consulted. The report should be copied and pasted into the appropriate proposal form field. The College and Concurrency steps in the approval workflow process will run an impact report.

Importing
Curriculog is linked to the USF online Undergraduate catalog.  You will need to import the current course or program information into the Course or Program Change form. Revisions are then made to the current information and tracked in the approval workflow process.

Instructions
Each proposal form begins with the 'Instructions' section.  The information contained in this section is tailored to the specific proposal form and can be helpful in completing the proposal.

Launching
Once the proposal form is complete, the proposal can be launched or submitted.  Launching begins the approval workflow process, starts the track changes, and makes the proposal visible within the Curriculog system.  Launching is only the first step of a two-step process to advance a proposal. 

• Step 1: Complete the proposal form and launch.
• Step 2: Originator approves the proposal in the approval workflow process.

Originator
The Originator is the person who starts a proposal.  The Originator is also the first step in the proposal's approval workflow process.  The Originator must complete the two-step process to advance the proposal. 

Validate
Validation occurs when the “Validate and Launch” option is selected.  Validation reviews the form to ensure all required fields (marked with an *) are completed.
