7.7.3 Reporting and Reviewing Requirements for a Joint Degree Program

Any joint degree program is subject to the same review and reporting requirements as any other NPS degree. This includes notification requirements and requests for approval of substantive changes as outlined in Chapter 8 of this Policy Manual. Additionally, because of the unique relationship and trust required between partnering institutions in the execution of a joint degree program, the Academic Council shall be notified of the results of any joint program reviews concerning academic rigor, content or quality biennially.
