Courseleaf Curriculum Management

The university's online curriculum management system is transparent and easy-to-use. Once a proposal for a new or changed course or program is started in the system, it can be tracked in CIM by anyone. It will also automatically appear in Towson University's next catalog, but only proposals that are fully approved by the catalog deadline will be published. Towson's online catalog (CAT) is fully integrated with CIM.

tip 1 - proposing a course change

Your Course Changes May Affect Other Departments

At the bottom of every CIM course page, there is a list of each catalog page, course or program that will be affected by your proposed change.

So the next time you want to change a course, before you open to edit scroll down to see who is affected by your change. These are the Departments you should notify and the catalog pages you will need to modify.

Example: MNGT 421 got a new number - it is now MNGT 395, these are the courses and programs affected.

tip 2 - printing pages in cim
