DU restructuring will close departments
DENVER — As part of a major academic restructuring announced Tuesday, the 11,500-student University of Denver said it would close and merge departments and combine schools at its campus.
According to The Denver Post, Provost Elizabeth Loboa said the realignment is “not really a part of” addressing the school’s $20 million to $30 million budget shortfall and that it could result in the loss of some jobs. DU will eliminate the departments of Religious Studies and Electrical and Computer Engineering. Faculty members also voted to close the departments of Philosophy, Socio-Legal Studies and Gender, Women’s and Sexuality Studies.
However, no academic programs are being eliminated, and all current academic programs for the closed departments will continue outside of those departments.
