welcome

The Office of the Senior Vice Provost for Undergraduate Studies is responsible for undergraduate programs and academic affairs at Temple University. Serving both students and faculty, we are dedicated to undergraduate teaching and learning.
Undergraduate Studies ensures that the undergraduate curriculum meets university standards and supports our academic mission. We help to design and implement new programs, and innovative uses of information technology in teaching, and we are stewards of university academic policy concerning undergraduates.
The Office also collaborates with faculty curriculum committees on the undergraduate General Education Curriculum. Providing an array of curricular services -- the Bulletin, DARS, Course Descriptions, we work to improve access to information about undergraduate programs and information systems that support our programs. See, for example, information about the University's General Education initiative.
We intend in all our work to enhance Temple students' life-long learning.
Peter R. Jones , Ph.D.
