Graduate Committee


The Graduate Committee consists of the Graduate Chair, Graduate Director, Graduate Administrator, the tri-campus Psychology undergraduate Chairs, one representative from each of the tri-campus Psychology programs, one status-only or cross-appointed member of faculty, and two graduate students (one junior and one senior, appointed but the PGSA). A single faculty member may serve to cover more than one role.

Faculty member appointments will be broadly representative of discipline areas within the program. Members serve a three-year term and appointments are staggered.

The Graduate Committee is responsible for the formulation of policies and the recommendation of changes in rules and regulations concerning the graduate program, as well as the review of student progress (graduate student representatives are not present for graduate student progress reviews).
