Area-specific advisory committee membership MA CCAP
Typically for the MA the advisory committee will comprise of the primary advisor and 1 faculty member, selected based on the goodness of fit to the proposed project, and often (but not necessarily) from the CCAP area. The creation of the advisory committee is the responsibility of the student’s primary advisor. This committee should be formed no later than the 20th class day of the student’s 2nd semester. After the committee is formed, the student, their Advisor, and the committee member(s) discuss the expectations for that particular committee (e.g., does committee plan to have regular meetings, when does the student expect to have a proposal meeting, when does the student expect to have a finalized proposal).
