EFDs Active in 2002-03

Engineering Faculty Documents (EFD) actively under review or approved during the current academic year are linked in the table. The Status column shows each document's stage in the approval process. Documents needing immediate faculty attention show a boldface in faculty review status with a blinking (browser dependent) "flagging" deadline.

Each EFD link opens an html-version of the document. While it's unlikely your browser will display the document's original format, PDF-versions offer correctly formatted viewing or printing. EFDs in faculty review open with an integral form that may be used to "flag" it for special processing, i.e. forestall approval by the normal CFR process and instead divert that EFD onto the action agenda of the next engineering faculty meeting. Form submission requires authentication with a Purdue coordinated login and password.

Synopsis of EFD Approval Process

All engineering curricular changes must be approved by the voting engineering faculty. Each proposed change must be described in an Engineering Faculty Document (EFD) which undergoes a review and approval process (see flow-chart) managed by the Committee on Faculty Relations (CFR). The basic sequence is:

  1. An EFD defining a proposed program or course change by an engineering committee or academic unit is first submitted as an MS Word™ file to the Academic Affairs Office to post for preview by the Engineering Advisory Committee (AC). Any AC member(s) may request the proposal be placed on the agenda of its next meeting. If no member so requests within two weeks of posting, the EFD is automatically approved for consideration by CFR. Possible AC actions for documents "flagged" for discussion are: table, approve for CFR consideration, or return to the originating unit for reconsideration and/or revision.
  2. CFR reviews the EFD, either approving it for distribution to the engineering faculty or returning it to the originating unit for revision. Approval for distribution implies CFR will subsequently give formal approval unless the document is "flagged" by a faculty member(s) for engineering faculty meeting consideration. CFR meets, takes actions, and submits documents to the faculty only during the fall and spring semesters; the time for faculty review is suspended during periods when all academic year appointments are in vacation status.
  3. If no voting engineering faculty member, within two weeks after distribution, requests and provides her/his rationale for faculty meeting consideration, CFR is authorized to approve the EFD for the faculty. If one or more faculty so request, the EFD is put on the agenda for action at the next engineering faculty meeting.
