Because BHSU is one of six public universities governed by the South Dakota Board of Regents, courses that are common among two or more of South Dakota’s public universities have common course numbers and descriptions. However, each campus has the flexibility to offer unique courses to design their majors and minors.

A curriculum process exists which allows faculty to make desired changes. The curriculum forms are available at the Board of Regents Web Page: click on Academic Information, then on AAC Council, then on AAC Guidelines -- www.ris.sdbor.edu/services/academics/PoliciesAndGuidelines/PoliciesAndGuidelines.htm.

The forms should be completed and given to the appropriate department chair to start the process for consideration by the college and then the university curriculum committees. Contact Ms. Dawn Kennedy at 642-6289 for assistance in completing the form.
