OXNARD COLLEGE MISSION STATEMENT
Oxnard College is a learning-centered institution that embraces academic excellence by providing multiple pathways to student success.
PURPOSE
The Program Review Committee (PRC) supports and advances the college mission, vision, and values by recommending to the College Planning Council on all matters related to program review and program effectiveness. A “program,” for the purposes of this committee, includes academic disciplines, Student Services, Business Services, and Administrative Services. The PRC will implement the program review process in a manner that enhances the linkage of program planning with resource allocation, with an emphasis on the analysis of student learning and other measurable outcomes as appropriate to each program. All programs complete annual or multi-year program reviews. The PRC makes recommendations to the College Planning Council.
