Curriculog Curriculum Management
What's New in Curriculog for 2026-2027?
Several updates have been made to Curriculog and the curriculum management process for the 2026–2027 academic year. Review the changes below before beginning a new proposal.
Build Your Form
Most Curriculog forms now begin with a short series of “first prompt” questions that appear in a panel on the right side of the screen.
Answer the questions that appear, then select Create Proposal. Based on your responses, Curriculog will build the form to include the questions and sections relevant to your request.
Some of the first prompt questions may appear redundant. These questions are necessary to ensure that the correct form content and approval workflow are generated for your proposal.
Curriculog Help: Instructions in One Place
Detailed instructions that previously appeared throughout individual Curriculog forms have been moved to the Curriculog Help website.
Visit Curriculog Proposal Instructions for guidance on completing, launching, monitoring, and responding to requests related to your proposal.
Individual forms will continue to provide guidance specific to the type of curriculum or policy request being submitted.
Important: March 1 Proposal Submission Deadline
All 2026–2027 curriculum and policy proposals must be launched in Curriculog by 5 p.m. on Monday, March 1, 2027.
To allow sufficient time for proposals to progress through Faculty Senate and, when applicable, review by the UMass President's Office and Board of Higher Education, the ability to launch new proposals will close at that time.
Launching a proposal by March 1 does not guarantee that it will be considered during the 2026–2027 academic year. Proposals must progress through all preceding workflow steps and reach the appropriate Faculty Senate committee by its final agenda deadline:
- Undergraduate Policy Committee (UPC): Monday, April 5, 2027
- Graduate Policy and Affairs Committee (GPAC): Monday, April 12, 2027
These deadlines allow eligible proposals to proceed through the remaining Faculty Senate review process before the final Faculty Senate meeting of the academic year on Monday, May 3, 2027.
Submit proposals as early as possible. Proposals that are launched before March 1 but do not reach the appropriate Faculty Senate committee by its final agenda deadline may not complete the approval process during the 2026–2027 academic year.
Planning Program Changes for the 2027–2028 Catalog
Program changes that require approval by the UMass President's Office must receive that approval before they can be implemented and advertised in the 2027–2028 catalog.
When planning a program change, allow sufficient time for the proposal to complete both the university curriculum governance process and any required external review.
New Curriculog Functionality
Curriculog also includes several improvements designed to make proposals, agendas, and approval processes easier to find and navigate.
Improved Search
Keyword search is now available for Agendas and Approval Processes, making it easier to locate specific items without browsing through multiple pages of results.
Most Recent Sort Option
A Most Recent sorting option is now available for Proposals and Approval Processes, allowing you to bring recently created or updated items to the top of your results.
Reply to Comments
Originators can now reply directly to comments on their proposals.
This makes it easier to respond to questions, provide clarification, and keep related discussion together within the proposal.
More Results Per Page
You can now choose to display 10, 50, or 100 results per page, reducing the number of pages you need to navigate when working with larger sets of proposals, agendas, or approval processes.
For additional information about these Curriculog enhancements, see Modern Campus's Improved Search, Sorting, and Pagination Across Agendas, Approval Processes, and Proposal Modules update.
