Information Needed for Instructor Approval
Undergraduate transcripts, graduate transcripts, and updated Curriculum Vitae are required for review by departments requested to grant concurrent credit. Other information may be requested by the reviewing department.
All questions about instructor eligibility/qualifications will be referred to the appropriate department chair.
Departments will identify courses appropriate for inclusion in the university鈥檚 concurrent enrollment initiative. Each high school requesting concurrent credit must request a specific 香港六合论坛 course.
High schools requesting a course will be supplied with a current syllabus for the comparable 香港六合论坛 course and with additional course-, program-, or discipline-specific requirements, if any, as stipulated by the department in which a course is housed. From this information, high schools will develop a syllabus that incorporates the required course content and objectives into the high school course curriculum.

These materials must include at least the following information, as relevant: lecture/lab schedule, course objectives, topical coverage, textbook/lab book titles and editions, assessment methods, and grading scale.
