The functions of the Graduate Studies Committee are as follows:
- Oversee the graduate curriculum and make timely
recommendations to the faculty on its findings.
- Execute the School graduate policy on admissions
and financial support.
- Make teaching assistantship assignments.
- Monitor the progress of all graduate students in the School.
This monitoring relies on annual progress reports from students and
their advisors (supervisory committee chairs). The advisor of a
student whose progress is questionable will be invited to discuss the
student's situation with the Committee. Appropriate actions according
to accepted School guidelines result from the student reviewing
process.
- Recruit new graduate students.
During 2000-2001, the Committee consists of Professors
John Hollerbach
(Director Fall'00),
Al Davis
(Director Spring'01),
Ganesh Gopalakrishnan,
Wilson Hsieh,
Rich Riesenfeld,
Kris Sikorski,
and
Ross Whitaker.
The Graduate Coordinator is Holly Gough.
