Within the first semester of study, the student must select a graduate faculty member as chairperson for the graduate advisory committee. The chairperson will advise the student on coursework and research. The graduate advisory committee should consist of faculty with expertise or interests that are appropriate to the student’s academic background, goals and career interests. The graduate advisory committee and the student will develop a thesis or non-thesis paper outline before the work begins. The thesis or non-thesis paper is then approved for initiation and supervised by the committee chairperson.
