Semester Conversion Office - Weekly Update
INFO
•
The 2013 - 2014 Semester Scheduling Committee, along with the Registrar and the Calendar
Conversion Office, has envisioned a four-step process to facilitate the creation of RIT’s first semester
schedule of courses.
The first step in this process, already in progress, focuses on course needs as opposed to specific time
sections and actual number of seats. Leadership from each of the colleges are engaged in this and have
begun to identify their programs’ course offerings and course needs for the fall and spring semesters of
academic year 2013 – 2014.
The data generated by the colleges will be processed by the Registrar and will be prepared for the
second step. The first version of the 2013 - 2014 schedule of courses is expected to be ready by the
end of May 2012. Adjustments to that schedule will continue throughout the summer.
