The Academic Operations teams have made significant progress in many areas and are now bringing designs forward for discussion and review. This includes the final proposed design of the academic organization structure for Vermont State University. The structure being voted on by the four Faculty Assemblies at their April meetings was the majority preference expressed in a recent Faculty Federation poll. The design is for five cross-campus schools and a graduate programs division with cross-campus departments and programs under each. The five schools are:
- Arts & Communication
- Business & Professional Studies
- Education, Psychology, and Social Sciences
- Nursing, Movement and Healthcare
- Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.
The Advising team will also be presenting its design for a new advising model (see the spotlight feature here) to the Faculty Assemblies.
In addition, the General Education team will be presenting its design of a Connections General Education program for discussion at upcoming Faculty Assemblies.
