All existing academic programs at RMC are subject to review on a cyclical basis. The cyclical review of a program is initiated by the Vice-Principal (Academic) based on an established university-wide schedule.Programs tied to cyclical professional accreditation reviews will follow the schedule set by the relevant accreditation board—for example, engineering programs under review will follow the CEAB schedule (6-year cycle) and perform the reviews concurrently. In the interest of streamlining collaborative processes, the review of RMC and Queen’s University’s joint program in Geoengineering will follow the Queen’s Cyclical Review schedule and IQAP. All other RMC programs will follow an 8-year schedule for cyclical review. The schedule below provides a status update on all cyclical programme reviews, both past, present and scheduled. The status and OPI columns identify the next phase for completion and the office responsible.
