Faculty Resources

Course Material Adoptions

Three (3) times per year, faculty are asked to submit textbook and course material requests for adoption by the bookstore. Adoptions are due prior to student registration each semester to ensure UTC is compliant with the federal government's requirements for textbox adoption posting as stated in the Higher Education Opportunity Act. 

Adoptions are requested to be submitted via the Adoptions Insights Portal (AIP). Faculty and administration will use the Institutions Single Sign On (SSO) technology to gain entry in which will allow them to research and adobe course materials in one, convenient place.
