PARC Curriculum Revision Process

PARC Curriculum Revision Process:

The PARC curriculum revision process begins with departments analyzing the undergraduate, graduate, and professional data provided by the Office of the Registrar concerning their curriculum and courses. Often majors, minors, and certificate programs contain courses that are not utilizedor that may lead to exceptions in DegreeWorks.To assist with the curriculum revision process, the Registrar’s Office provides data on:

  • Courses that are used or seldom/never used by student to satisfy requirements
  • Course exceptions and substitutions departments have approved to satisfy requirements

Once departments have reviewed the provided data, necessary curriculum revisions are then entered into PARC by the department for review and approval, resulting in revised curriculum programs that will appear in the UGA Bulletin and DegreeWorks. 

See the below illustration of this process:How PARC Works
