Current Curriculum Committee Members

The Curriculum Cycle:

The curriculum process at Cabrillo is robust and ongoing in response to changes in student needs, industry, technology, and state compliance requirements. All curriculum proposals submitted by faculty are reviewed and approved by the Curriculum Committee, Faculty Senate, the Vice President of Instruction, with final local approval by Cabrillo's Governing Board. Prior to implementation, authorization is required by the State Chancellor's Office.

The Curriculum Committee:

The Curriculum Committee is a standing committee of the Faculty Senate and has the primary responsibility for college curriculum matters. This body reviews, approves, and makes recommendations about all new and modified courses, degrees, and certificates. The Curriculum Committee meets regularly during the year. Attendance is encouraged for those who develop new or modified proposals.

The Curriculum Library:

To view a Course Outline of Record (COR), it is recommended to access the eLumen public site (which does not require a log in). Additional college and curriculum information can be found in the Cabrillo College Catalog.
