Schedule of Classes Maintenance
The Registrar’s Office—Schedule of classes (SoC) is an internal resource for department leaders and faculty. Two main roles are to help units plan and place their classes, in time and space; and to ensure that classes fulfill the descriptions/formats approved by curriculum authorities.
By doing so, the Registrar’s SoC serves students by providing a timely and accurate record that lets them plan their class schedules with confidence. Schedule of classes uses advancing technology, wherever possible, to respond to competitive best practices and trends among peer institutions.
