- Reviews are to occur every 5-7 years; newly established or significantly modified programs are to be reviewed within 2 years after the first cohort has graduated.
- Two or more academic programs may be reviewed together or as part of a unit review. For example, all interrelated programs within a unit, including majors, honours, minors, and certificates, may be reviewed simultaneously.
- All schedules are at the discretion of the dean, and in the case of graduate programs, communicated to and mutually agreed upon with the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
- Maintaining a comprehensive, faculty-level schedule of reviews will ensure the appropriate distribution of reviews and aid strategic planning around resources (human and financial). It will also help Dalhousie Analytics to plan for their own resources and ensure appropriate data support.
