Catalog Production timeline

Role of Academic Programs Office in Roadmaps

The Program Roadmaps are now embedded in the University Catalog. 

The process to update and review Roadmaps starts each fall for the subsequent academic year. The publication of Roadmaps follows the Catalog production date, March 15th of each year. 

If your Program is creating or updating Roadmaps to be included in the 2026-2027 Catalog, please refer to the steps below to get started.

Steps to Creating or Updating your Program鈥檚 Roadmaps:

Step 1: Program Chairs contact Taryn McHugh taryn.mchugh@csuci.edu via email to set up a one-hour meeting. The deadline to contact is October 15th to ensure changes will be published in the 26-27 Catalog.  Meetings will occur October 15th-December 19th. 

*Note: these meetings are ONLY for Programs who are creating or updating Roadmaps for the 2026-2027 Catalog.  

Step 2: BEFORE the meeting, your Program will need to prepare and send your proposed Roadmap to Taryn McHugh taryn.mchugh@csuci.edu. Please discuss the proposed Roadmap with faculty and share it with Advising BEFORE the meeting. What MUST be included in your Roadmap:  

• A list of courses for each semester detailing which major classes, GEs, etc. and requirements met/GE Grad area satisfied 
• Include any specific course notes
• Recommendations/notes for each semester
• Total number of units for each semester and year, ensuring totals for Freshman Roadmaps are = 120 units and Transfer Roadmaps are = 60 units (unless your program has an exception) 

*NOTE: Any updates to the 2-year AND 4-year Roadmaps must be submitted separately 

Step 3: Program Chairs will attend the meeting where they will be able to review the Roadmap uploaded to Curriculog.

Curriculog Workflow:

• 鈥�Originator鈥� is first step and approval will be done together in the meeting.
• Next, it will route to 鈥�Program Chair鈥� for approval (this step can be completed during our meeting, or will have a deadline of January 31st to ensure inclusion in the Catalog).
• Next, it will route to 鈥�Academic Advising鈥� where the appropriate Program鈥檚 Academic Advisor will get notified that the Program has made changes to the Roadmap. 
• Next, it will route to 鈥�Degree Audit鈥� where the Degree Audit System Analyst will get notified that the Program has made changes to the Roadmap.
• Lastly, it will go to 鈥�Academic Programs Catalog Review鈥�, where staff will migrate information to the Catalog for publication. 

Step 4: Once the form goes through 鈥�Academic Programs Catalog Review鈥�, the Academic Programs Office will work on implementation in the Catalog. Catalog publication is March 15th.
