COSCC Mission
The principal task of the College of Science Curriculum Committee (COSCC) is to review and make recommendations on behalf of the college regarding the creation, modification, or discontinuation of its academic degrees, certificate programs, and courses. This committee has representation from all COS academic departments who wished to have members appointed. The COSCC’s Bylaws can be reviewed here.
