2017-18 Catalog
We expect the 2017-18 Catalog to publish approximately March 1. It will be available at catalog.iastate.edu.
Catalog Updates
If you come across an issue in the current catalog that needs attention (curriculum overview, four-year plan, inconsistencies with degree audit, etc.), please alert your department’s / programs’ curriculum committee. Please remember that catalog changes precede degree audit changes.
