Bulletin Production Information

University of Denver academic programs are published annually in the Graduate and Undergraduate Bulletins. The Bulletins are published in both web and PDF formats. Maintaining document fidelity, both versions remain static after publication.

Bulletin audiences include prospective students, students admitted during that academic year governed by the Bulletin, and external audiences including accreditors and government regulators. 

Bulletins serve as the official record outlining the academic requirements for earning a credential, specific to students admitted during a given academic year. It is crucial for academic programs to ensure that these Bulletins present a precise and reliable representation of the courses and requirements students will follow throughout their academic journey at the University.

Bulletin Information

Flow of Bulletin Information

The bulk of information in the Bulletins is managed through the CourseLeaf Program Proposal form and CourseLeaf Course Proposal form and imported into the NextBulletin editing environment; that is to say, in order to make changes to programs and courses, it must be done through the form. 

Academic departments receive an email notification when Bulletin pages for their programs are released for editing. Departments will edit a small amount of information, primarily overview information and, if applicable, course plans. Beyond that, the focus for existing programs is reviewing and, if needed, updating program of study and course information.

    Existing Programs

    Bulletin editing provides an annual opportunity to review and revise programs. Please see the Bulletin Editing job aid for quick help. 

    Areas for Review

    • Overview or landing page for the program: Is program information, including contact information and credentials offered, accurate and up-to-date?
    • Program of Study page: Are program requirements current? Program revisions are made through the CourseLeaf Program Proposal form. 
    • Are course descriptions current? Courses are imported into the bulletin. Changes to courses and deactivations are made through the CourseLeaf Course Proposal form.
    • Course plans are required for all majors in traditional undergraduate programs and are used by some graduate programs. Please make sure your course plans are current for the upcoming year. Consult the Course Plan job aid if you need support editing a plan.

    New Programs
    New programs are created in the bulletin after receiving all necessary approvals. Faculty overseeing new academic programs should work to ensure all courses required for the program are proposed and created in accordance with Bulletin deadlines. The Office of the Registrar will reach out to programs after approval to finalize details for publication.
