Academic Program Discontinuance Sample Clauses

The Academic Program Discontinuance clause outlines the procedures and conditions under which an educational institution may terminate or phase out an academic program. Typically, this clause details the criteria for discontinuance, such as low enrollment or changes in institutional priorities, and describes the steps for notifying affected students and faculty, as well as any transition support or teach-out plans provided. Its core function is to ensure a transparent and orderly process for ending academic programs, minimizing disruption for students and staff while protecting the institution’s ability to adapt its offerings.
Academic Program Discontinuance. In the life of a university, as knowledge expands and new academic programs flourish, some programs may diminish or become outmoded. In the process of discontinuing programs, three basic considerations must prevail: 1) maintenance of a strong and vigorous university, 2) fulfillment of commitments to students in the process of completing discontinued programs, and 3) the fulfillment of established faculty rights and due process to individual probationary or tenured faculty and unclassified staff members who may be subject to dismissal. Dismissal of individual faculty may occur as a result of program discontinuance. Within the constraints and necessity of program integrity and departmental policies, faculty will be released by appointment category and academic rank in the following order: part-time, temporary, tenure earning, and tenured; instructor, assistant professor, associate professor, and professor.
