Curriculog

Everyone with Purdue credentials has access to Curriculog. If you are sent a proposal URL, login first and then access the link.

For proposal ideation and development work within your department and college, we recommend using Purdue Box or another collaborative tool of your preference. Curriculog is the formal approval process tool for tracking university administration sign-offs – after home college steps are complete. No edits may be made to the proposal or documents after launch.

Launch your Curriculog proposal once it’s ready for formal review outside of your college. An overview of when to launch the Curriculog Proposal by College is available here.

A Mass Change Proposal may be warranted if a department requires the same change on 5 or more courses. These types of changes may include departmental ownership, prefix, prerequisites, restrictions, schedule types, attributes, expirations, and campus additions (Purdue Indianapolis only). The courses should be provided on a spreadsheet and the change must be the same for all courses listed. Do not provide combination changes as they will not be accepted. A Mass Change Proposal requires Registrar, Departmental and Dean approvals. Maggie Gerald will originate the proposal once the spreadsheet is received by email. Please contact Maggie Gerald to get started, will1509@purdue.edu .
