  1. Helpful Tips from a UC A.O. Yoly Woo-Hoogenstyn Articulation Officer

  2. Introduction • Today’s presentation will cover articulation tips from the perspective of a UC campus with focus on UC San Diego & UC Santa Cruz. • Each UC has unique practices for processing articulation. • Contact the UC campus A.O. to inquire about best practices for that UC.

  3. ASSIST: Tips, Similarities & Differences Among UCs • Articulation by Major: All UCs • Articulation by Department: 7 UCs • Excluding UCI, UCLA • Articulation for GE: 7 UCs • Excluding UCLA, UCSD, UCI (selected CCCs) • UC San Diego: once a course-to-course agreement is established, that agreement is valid wherever the course is used.

  4. ASSIST: Tips, Similarities & Differences Among UCs • Course Prefixes • At two UCs, course prefixes in UC Catalogs may differ from those on ASSIST. • UCD: ASSIST Prefix = Banner System • AAS (catalog); AF-AMST (ASSIST) • UCSC: ASSIST Prefix = Class Schedule • Department Names • ASSIST departments may not always reflect official UC campus departments.

  5. ASSIST: Tips, Similarities & Differences Among UCs • UC Campus Majors • Differing degrees and emphases may be displayed on ASSIST as separate majors. • UCSD: Psychology – degrees (emphases) • B.A. & B.S.

  6. ASSIST: Tips, Similarities & Differences Among UCs • UC Professional Programs on ASSIST • UCD: School of Veterinary Medicine • UCSF: Schools of Dentistry, Pharmacy

  7. IGETC vs. UC Campus-Specific GE • IGETC and UC campus GE are distinct and separate patterns. • Some CCC IGETC-certified courses may also satisfy UC GE patterns. • UC campus GE patterns are unique. • UC campus practices for seeking campus GE articulation vary.

  8. Catalog Rights • Catalog rights differ at each UC. • Catalog rights may differ among UC colleges.

  9. AP / IB Articulation • AP/IB score credit is the same across UCs: • UC transferable units, eligibility, IGETC • AP/IB course-to-course articulation and satisfaction of requirements vary per UC. • Finding UC AP/IB information: • UCD, UCM: ASSIST links to UC Campus Catalog • UCI, UCSD, UCSB: Check the UC Campus Catalog • UCR: Modifying agreements TBD • UCSC: AP/IB under ASSIST ‘By Major’ • UCB, UCLA: AP on ASSIST for select majors only

  10. UC Curriculum Update Process • CCCs update quarterly. • UCs update annually. • UCs base curriculum changes on their catalogs, catalog supplements and varied internal processes.

  11. Publishing UC Agreements UCs... • publish July through January (typically). • do not change their side of the agreement within academic year – with rare exception. • do not sever articulation in an academic year when students may be disadvantaged. • add articulation throughout the year. • obtain CCC course additions, deletions and changes from ASSIST reports. • maintain and manipulate CCC course data when establishing agreements on ASSIST.

  12. UC Annual Update Reports • UCs provide an annual summary of their updates to majors and curriculum changes. • UCSD: provides report October. • Single report includes Jacobs Engineering and All Majors • UCSD report provides updates on campus information and changes to campus majors as well as minors.

  13. UC A.O. Responsibilities • UC A.O. has varied responsibilities: • Exploring Majors (ASSIST) • UC Transfer Preparation Paths • Responsibilities vary, may include: • TAG, transfer programs and outreach • Honors program coordination • Campus, UCOP & CIAC committees • Develop and provide training • Catalog, web & publication updates • Evaluation, Holistic Review: FR & TR

  14. Best Practices for Submitting UC Articulation Proposals • ASSIST-Next Generation proposes a new tracking system for the future. • Current best practices for UCSD: • Submit via email. • Provide CCC course outlines in PDF. • Group by dept.; avoid long requests. • Propose a specific course-to-course agreement. • Checklist: Transferable? Already articulated? Previously requested?

  15. Reasons UC Faculty Request Additional Documentation • Details not found in the COR • No indication of time spent on specific topics • including lab topics and lab time spent • Missing types of assignments for specific topics • Criteria for evaluation, especially writing assignments are unspecified • Textbooks and required reading unknown • Subject-specific information lacking in the course objectives and student learning outcomes

  16. Contacting UC Faculty & Depts. • Direct all articulation requests through A.O.s • Contact the UC A.O. first before making inquires to UC campus faculty/departments. • UC A.O.s may work with specific department liaisons who work with multiple faculty. • UC department faculty/staff may not be as familiar with articulation protocol. • UC campus departments and UC catalogs may focus on native students vs. transfer student criteria and protocol…use caution.

  17. Timing / Reminders • UC faculty sabbaticals, teaching, research and travel schedules may affect the time needed to process articulation proposals. • Varied A.O. responsibilities impact processing. • CCC A.O.s are encouraged to track UC requests to avoid duplicate requests. • Contact the UC campus A.O. when response time seems unusually extended. • UCSD: Provides an email to the CCC A.O. with articulation outcome.

  18. At the CIAC Conference • Introduce yourself to UC & other A.O.s • Green Dots: New A.O. Trainees • Blue Dots: CIAC Conference Mentors • CIAC Website: Mentor list; resources galore • CIAC Conference Hospitality: • Visit the CIAC Blog • Agenda, restaurants, activities, etc. • Attend the Thursday night reception • Learn, network and enjoy!
