At the Health Sector, the Integrated Learning Office is dedicated to the continuous improvement of our undergraduate and graduate programs. The primary goal is to enhance the quality of our competency-based curricula, aligning with market needs, accreditation standards, and national priorities.
Our approach to Curriculum Enhancement (CE) is faculty-driven with faculty members having the primary responsibility for the content, quality, and effectiveness of the curriculum. They play an integral role in every stage of the CE process which considers outcomes of the Academic Program Reviews (APRs), Program Learning Outcomes Assessments (PLOA), and accreditation standards.
Each proposal for curricular change or new program initiation (major, minor, concentration) must undergo a rigorous review and approval process. This process varies depending on the program level (graduate, undergraduate), the nature, and the scope of the proposed changes. The review typically involves multiple stages before submission to QU Health Curriculum Enhancement Committee (QUH CEC), including:
- Approval from the Department Head.
- Approval from the College Curriculum Committee (or College Academic Council)
- Approval from the College Dean.
Please refer to our provided resources for detailed guidance on the processes and templates for CE initiatives. We are always available to support you. Please
