After conferring with your department chair, submit all Winter Session 2011 course proposals directly to your department’s designated scheduling coordinator now through September 10.
Since UMBC has implemented PeopleSoft Student Administration, academic departments now coordinate and update their schedule of classes at the department level each academic term.
The Special Sessions Policy Committee will continue to review and approve summer and winter schedules before publication and the Office of Summer, Winter and Special Programs will continue to manage faculty contracts and program administration.
Past Winter Enrollment Data
To help in planning the upcoming winter session, course information and enrollment data for winter sessions 2009 and 2010 is available at http://www.umbc.edu/ssfaculty/coordinators.html
Winter Scheduling Guidelines
For every credit, a non-lab course is required to meet for 12.5 contact hours. For example, a three credit course must meet a total of 12 times for 3 hours and 10 minutes (37.5 total contact hours).
