Campus Reopening Update

Fall Course Schedule

Students,

I hope you all are staying safe and well this summer. I’m sure you are thinking ahead to the fall – as we are. I wanted to give you a quick update.

Thank you for helping us by responding to the student survey and sharing your preferences about course formats for the fall semester as well as the challenges you are facing. More than 2,500 of you responded. If you haven’t yet completed the short survey, you still have an opportunity to click on the link in your email with the subject line “Miners, Tell us about the Fall” and fill it out.

Our fall course schedule was developed pre-pandemic and it is clear from your feedback that we are going to need a greater variety of options in course delivery to meet your needs.

We are using your feedback to develop a better mixture of face-to-face, hybrid and online courses for the fall. With this work nearly complete, we expect to release a significant portion of the updated fall course schedule in early July.

We offer more than 4,300 different course sections each semester, so you can imagine the complexity of making this adjustment. 

Once the revised schedule of courses is ready, an email will be sent to your UTEP account. Please review the schedule carefully and reach out to your advisor. They will be ready to help you adjust your course plan for the fall in a way that meets your educational and personal needs.  

Thank you again for the resilience and flexibility you’ve shown in a very unusual time.  Thanks also for your patience as we make adjustments and prepare for the fall semester. We are very much looking forward to seeing you again soon!

Warm Regards,

Heather Wilson
President
