The Graduate Council


About the Graduate Council

The Graduate Council was formed to enable a cadre of faculty with significant experience and achievement in graduate education to assist in the review and implementation of campus graduate studies issues. Working with the Dean of the Graduate School, the Graduate Council serves to assess and implement initiatives that foster successful graduate education involving faculty and students. In addition to serving as an advisory body, the members of the Graduate Council make recommendations on policies for the Graduate School.

Members of the Graduate Council are appointed for three-year terms by the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs in consultation with the Dean of the Graduate School and the deans of the academic colleges. The appointment of college representatives is made on a staggered basis to maintain continuity of experience.

The Graduate Council meets at a minimum once per month.

Graduate Faculty Recommendations

If a graduate faculty appointment request is being made, aÌýGraduate Faculty Recommendation Form should be used. Each completed form should be accompanied by a letter of nomination from the appropriate program or school director as well as a copy of the nominee's curriculum vitae. Ìý
