Closing a Specialization

This process should be used to request the closure (termination) of one or more existing specializations in an undergraduate major. Note that the terms specialization and track are synonymous for this process.

The academic approval tracking system will automatically route the request (including all accompanying forms and documents) to the following groups for approval and/or notification.

1. Department (Approval is required from the Chair or other designated approver for the department that will offer the academic program, typically following review by the department curriculum committee.)
2. College (Approval is required from the Dean or other designated approver for the college or unit in the preceding step, typically following review by the college curriculum committee.)
3. UCC (Approval is required from the University Curriculum Committee.)
4. OUR (Approval is required from the Office of the University Registrar.)
5. CAT (The change will be entered into the undergraduate catalog, effective in the term approved for the request.)
