History
In 2008, the academic plan "Shaping our Future" was released (RG 74.63). From this plan the Provost's Commission on Academic Structures was formed and released its final report in 2010. The first scenario presented in the commissions final report was the formation of a separate Faculty of Science. A committee to investigate this possibility was formed in July of 2010. A town hall was held in November of 2010. In April of 2011 the committee presented its preliminary report at a second town hall, with the final report being submitted to the Provost on April 27. The Senate approved the establishment of a new separate Faculty of Science on June 7, 2011
