Approved by the Board of Trustees of SUNY Rockland Community College on January 15, 2009. Revised Curriculum Policy adopted by the Board of Trustees on April 27, 2026.
The Faculty Senate Curriculum Committee represents the role of the faculty in all aspects of the curriculum. “Curriculum” encompasses the academic experience including credit and non-credit pathways that drive educational and/or workforce opportunities for students. The Committee focuses on ensuring that these paths are seamless and lead to success.
The Faculty Senate Curriculum Committee Manual of Procedures, accessible to faculty, is the guide used by the faculty to fulfill their role as developers and stewards of the College’s curricula. The Manual delineates standards and procedures for all of the following but not limited to: new program proposals; new course proposals; microcredentials; revisions; and discontinuation or deactivation of programs. In keeping with the requirements of the State University of New York, New York State Department of Education, and professional oversight entities where appropriate, program areas are reviewed on a regular basis according to an established schedule.
