Degree Integrity Council

Purpose

The Degree Integrity Council serves as a cross-functional advisory body that identifies, evaluates, and recommends institutional policies, procedures, and practices that promote the integrity, quality, and regulatory compliance of SMU's academic credentials. The Council provides a forum for collaborative review of academic policies and operational processes that affect degree requirements, curriculum, academic records, and credentialing, helping ensure that institutional practices align with accreditation standards, federal regulations, SMU policies, and university strategic priorities.
