Proposed minor title.  \n2. Authors of proposal, name of contact person, and contact information.  \n3. Proposed starting date.  \n4. Summary of minor (executive summary) . Provide a brief description of the proposed graduate minor.  \n5. Rationale  \na) Explain why this is an opportune moment for the creation of the proposed minor.  \nb) Describe the niche that the minor will fill. Provide a list of similar minors from peer institutions (some institutions use the term “certificate”) or explain the uniqueness of the proposed minor.  \nc) Explain how the minor fits within the department’s and the college’s strategic plans.  \nd) Explain how the minor fits within the University’s mission.  \ne) State how the minor will advance the University’s academic standing.  \nf) Explain how other University needs may be met through the initiation of this minor and how the minor may address deficiencies in current programs.  \n6. Student recruitment  \na) Present data on student interest.  \nb) Identify the target audience and describe the likely academic background of potential students.  \nc) Describe how students will be recruited.  \nd) State how many students are expected to be earning the minor at any given time.  \n7. Program requirements  \na) Overview: Provide an overview of the program’s requirements.  \nb) Coursework: Specify the number of credit hours of coursework required and the total number of credit hours required (the Graduate School recommends 9-15  \nhours) . Identify the required course sequence and outline  \nexpectations/milestones for students year by year (for example, when certain courses are taken, when coursework is completed, when candidacy examinations are taken) . Identify and describe any new courses that will be taught. Describe how existing courses will be used.  \nc) Examinations: Include the nature and timing of examinations for the program, if any.  \nd) Research projects: Describe any required papers or projects, such as work in the dissertation.  \ne) Teaching requirements: Describe the teaching responsibilities, if any, students are required or likely to have in the program. At what point in students’ course of study will they normally teach?  \nf) Identify any other degree requirements.  \ng) Estimate the effect of earning the minor on a student’s time to degree.  \n8. Placement: Provide an analysis of how earning the minor will affect placement opportunities for students.  \n9. Faculty. A critical mass of faculty at appropriate ranks is necessary for approval of all graduate minors, especially for interdisciplinary minors.  \na) List the names and credentials (including rank) of all faculty involved in teaching courses for the minor. Also identify their area(s) of interest and state what each will bring to the minor.  \nb) For interdisciplinary programs, demonstrate adequate representation of faculty from all departments involved and provide a letter of support from the chair of each department demonstrating the chair’s understanding of the expectations of the program—particularly the expectation that faculty will be available to teach courses on a regular basis.  \n10. Governance: Describe the governance structure, including the nature of the director’s position, the composition of the governing committee, and the committee’s major tasks.  \n11. Library: Provide an assessment of the quality of the existing library resources for the minor. Indicate if additional library resources are necessary to provide a minimum quality minor. If additional resources are necessary, provide a plan, with dollar amounts, for acquiring these resources within a specified time frame. Include a letter from the director of University Libraries that contains a commitment to a certain dollar amount.  \n12.
