All:

 

The attached proposal for a new bachelor degree has been approved by the Provost and UUGC.  By regulation it needs approval by Academic Planning and Budget Committee.  Our primary responsibility is to ensure that the proposal is viable financially, i.e. the costs will have a minimum impact on the University.  The proposal has that language.

 

Therefore, if there are no objections I would propose an e-mail vote due to the short time frame.  How say you all.

 

Ron

Dear Ron,

 

Thank you very much for agreeing to expedite the approval of the attached new degree proposal by the Academic Planning and Budget Committee.  As we plan to start the new degree program from fall 2016 and the proposal needs to go through a lengthy approval process from BOT and BOG, I will appreciate it if your committee can make its decision within a week so that Maria Jennings can include this proposal in the agenda of the November Steering meeting.        

 

Please contact me or Dan Meeroff if you have any questions about this new program.

 

Many thanks,

 

Yan

Dear Russ:

Attached is the revised version of the Environmental Engineering BS degree proposal. I have included all of your feedback. Lynn Asseff, our college financial officer, has verified the budget numbers and tables. The signatures from library and diversity have been included as well. I have submitted the document to be included at the next UUPC meeting.

 

Thank you for your strong support of our programs!

Dan
