Preparing to Teach


About the Syllabus

You must complete your syllabus and turn in a copy to the planning department at least two full weeks before your class begins. UC Irvine Extension has created a special format that all instructors must use to create their class syllabus. On this page you will find several documents that will help you to create a syllabus with the right information for your class and that complies with the style guidelines that UC Irvine Extension requires.

Note: The Extension logo is embedded in these documents. You MAY NOT use this logo in any manner without express written permission from UC Irvine Extension.
