Curriculum Sheets and Academic Maps

These are valuable tools used by students and advisors. A curriculum sheet lists the degree requirements in an academic program and is a tool used to track academic progress. An academic map provides a recommended semester-by-semester schedule of courses and highlights additional milestones required for completing a degree in four years.
