GER Moratorium
There is currently a task force working on reconfiguring/reconceptualizing UWM’s General Education Requirements (GER). In the interim, there is a moratorium on approving new GER courses. However, the Academic Program and Curriculum Committee (APCC) recognizes the following exceptions:
- Reactivating GER on a course that previously had GER status
- Jointly offered with another course that already has GER status
- CGS courses aligning with a UWM course that already has GER status
- Moving GER from one course to another where the new GER course aligns to the current GER requirements and will better serve students (and where the previous course did not).
