Course Syllabi

NOTE: This page will be unavailable beginning July 16. Effective Fall 2021, every syllabus must comply with new rules regarding syllabi, as described in Senate Rules 6.1.1 (“The Course Syllabus”). Visit the Senate's Course Syllabi page for details and guidance, including updated syllabus templates.

Course syllabi are a frequent topic of conversation around campus. The Senate Rules require a few specific components but there is other information that is not required, but still is helpful to students.
