Graduate School Council

The Graduate School Council establishes and reviews the graduate mission for the University, facilitates long-range planning for graduate programs, and develops and reviews policies that impact graduate programs. The council is also responsible for evaluating existing programs, suggesting new programs for particular Schools to consider, and working with the Curriculum and Instruction Committee to establish procedures for design and review of new courses. The council will also address issues that promote the general welfare of graduate students at the University.

The council is comprised of representatives from each division or school that manage graduate programs along with a graduate student representative. The student representative is selected by the council and will serve for a one year term. The chair will be appointed by the Provost.
