Policy and Review Councils
The Policy and Review (P & R) Councils advise the Dean of the
Graduate School on issues affecting graduate education such as
degree program proposals, faculty, courses, tuition, residency
requirements, advisor/advisee responsibilities, etc. Each P&R
Council includes graduate student
members in the ratio of one student to three faculty
members. COGS votes on the student members at the first fall
semester COGS General Assembly
meeting.
The six P&R Councils are divided according to subject
area. Each graduate degree program is assigned to one P&R
Council, as listed below. The six P&R Councils are:
- Biological Sciences
- Education and Psychology
- Health Sciences
- Languages, Literature and Arts
- Engineering, Physical, and Mathematical Sciences
- Social Sciences
At the beginning of each year, a P&R Council Assembly meeting is conducted
with an assembly of all P&R councils. Each P&R
Councils meet once a semester, and one of the committee members is expected
to report
back
to
the
General
Assembly
as
to
what occurred at that meeting.
