The Curriculum Office supports the development and redesign of courses and programs from the moment faculty first envision them, through their proposal and approval at the Fredonia level, and then through the SUNY and NYSED review process (if necessary). The office maintains and helps to develop policy, procedures, and best practice guidance related to curricular practices. University-level waivers and applications for extra hours are also processed through the Curriculum Office.
