Advising
The advisory committee will consist of no fewer than three members of the graduate faculty in the selection of whom the graduate student normally participates. It is recommended that one of the committee members be from another department other than that in which the student is registered. The committee chair is normally the advisor of the student's research, and is nominated by the department chair. The advisory committee must be established and the Advisory Committee Appointment form submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies not later than the mid-point of the student's second registered semester.
