Academic Program Review Template (Word document)

The Academic Program Review template is a pre-formatted document that includes all required components for a full academic program review and the supplemental questions for a Career Education (CE) two-year review. The template also includes auto-pagination, a table of contents, and space-holder headings for required appendices. Added to this version of the template is a rubric for each section so you can self-assess. This is also, generally, the rubric by which the Academic Program Review Committee evaluates programs.
