Catalog & Curriculum
The Office of Academic Programs publishes the General Catalog and maintains technical
course data and attributes in PeopleSoft.
Curriculum forms for proposing new courses, changing existing courses, offering special
topics courses, obtaining General Education certification or Diversity & Equity certification
for courses, proposing new programs, and making changes to existing programs are available
through Curriculog, CSUSM’s online curriculum management system.
Additional records documenting the status of these proposals in the University-level
curriculum review and approval process are available on the Academic Programs web
site.
The Office of Academic Programs works closely with five Academic Senate committees:
Academic Policy Committee, General Education Committee, Diversity and Equity Curriculum
Committee, Program Assessment Committee, and University Curriculum Committee.
