How Do I Find Official Course-level Descriptions, Learning Outcomes, and Outlines?

Overview

All course offerings at CSUCI are vetted and approved through a course proposal and review process with the faculty senate. Certain information in a course syllabus (e.g., pre-requisites, student learning outcomes, course description, etc.) must be consistent with the approved information in the course proposal. Course proposals and outlines are housed in Curriculog, where you can verify that the information you have in your syllabus is consistent and correct.
