The Office of the Dean of Humanities and Social Sciences has developed the following documents and packages (see links below) to assist faculty members with developing proposals for changes to undergraduate entries in the university calendar. These resources include the standard forms that are required by Senate on the Office of the Registrar’s website. Upon completion, a proposal should be submitted as a Word document (not as a pdf) to the Secretary to the Associate Deans of Humanities and Social Sciences (assocdeancphss@mun.ca), who will review the document to ensure formatting consistency. Proposals received by October 15 (or next workday) will, pending approval, will be included in the university calendar for the next academic year.
