Overview

The Council of Undergraduate Deans (CUD) is an advisory group to the vice provost for undergraduate education. The council plays a central planning role for undergraduate education, with particular attention to issues and policies that cut across the colleges and professional schools. This group consists of the most senior administrator in charge of undergraduate programs in each of the six colleges and in those professional schools that have at least one undergraduate program.
