Department and School Council Bylaws
As per Senate Policy 45: Governance Councils, Section 1.5, each Department/School will function according to a bylaw.
Department/School/Program Council Bylaws must all be approved by the Academic Governance and Policy Committee (AGPC) and Senate before they should be implemented. Any revisions or modifications outside of titles/roles and university approved name changes must either be re-approved through AGPC and Senate or go to Senate for information depending on what has been revised/modified. Refer to the Senate Agenda Submission Schedule for submission deadlines.
Please contact the Senate office at senate@torontomu.ca (opens in new window) for further guidance. All Senate approved Bylaws are posted on the Senate website.
