Where can I find the syllabus for the
course I am teaching?
There is a department syllabus available for every course that is
taught in the Mathematics Department.
These are written by the course coordinators and their
respective committees. These
are kept in Center 2 in the drawer near Julie’s desk.
You can ask Julie, Nancy or Dr. DeLucia
for a syllabus.
What
is included in a course outline?
All instructors are expected to
distribute course outlines on the first day of class.
The course outline should include the name of the course, the
instructor’s name, the required text and calculator (if
appropriate), information on how students can contact the instructor,
the syllabus (day-to-day topics covered and testing days), course
requirements and grading criteria and
expectations about academic integrity, homework, attendance and
classroom etiquette (i.e., cell phone use).
Instructors may add any other information they feel is
pertinent to their class. Many faculty members have their own web
sites and post their outlines and syllabi online.
