About CourseLeaf

CourseLeaf Curriculum Inventory Management (“CourseLeaf CIM”) is an online curriculum management system that streamlines and simplifies our curriculum process. It reduces duplicate data entry, identifies courses and programs impacted by a curricular change, includes a markup feature to allow users to easily track changes during the creation of a program proposal (highlighting the addition of new items in green and deleted items in red), collects reviewer feedback in a central location, and automates approval workflows.

CourseLeaf CIM is based on a dynamic and automated workflow approval process that is defined by each academic unit. CIM is used for creating a new course or program, modifying an existing course or program, retiring an existing course or program, and requesting a new subject code.

Course Inventory Management (CIM)

Course Inventory Management is used when proposing a new course or modifying an existing course. Please review New York Tech Procedures and Forms for additional information about making changes to an existing curriculum.

Program Management

CourseLeaf Program Management is used when proposing a new degree program or for changes to existing degree programs.

New program proposals, including dual-degree/accelerated programs, must be approved by dean of your school and the Office of Academic Affairs before they can be submitted to the Curriculum Committee of the New York Tech Academic Senate. Please email programdev@nyit.com in the Office of Academic Affairs to schedule a preliminary meeting before proceeding with the following steps in CourseLeaf.

Initial proposals and full proposals have different requirements; a process has been prepared and approved by the curriculum committee. New York Tech Procedures and Forms has all information about the new NYSED e-forms for new program proposals, new certificates, or advanced certificates, and adding distance education to an existing program.
