Course Approval
Requests to add new courses, modify existing courses, or delete existing courses are transmitted by using the UHM-1 (add) or UHM-2 (modify or delete) forms. The course approval process at Mänoa includes the following:
- Departmental review which assures course coherence, pedagogy, content, learning outcomes, and quality.
- Review and approval by appropriate unit’s program and curriculum committee and dean.
- Review and approval by the Graduate Division (for graduate courses only).
- Review and approval by the General Education Committee or Foundations Board for courses seeking Diversification, Foundations, and/or Hawaiian/Second Language designations.
- Review and approval by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs.
Please refer to the "Instructions for Completing the UHM-1 and UHM-2 forms” for more information.
“Guidelines for Course Proposals Submitted to the Graduate Division” should be followed for graduate level courses.
The General Education webpage should be consulted for further information regarding Diversification, Foundations, Hawaiian/Second Language, and Focus courses.
