In accordance with the聽Graduate Student Research Tracking Policy,聽a student's progress must be monitored and recorded at least annually. Having written agreed-upon expectations and clearly defined requirements aids in reduced times to completion and leads to fewer supervisor-supervisee misunderstandings.
Annual Thesis Committee Meetings and Oral Comprehensive Exams are closed, private meetings for the student and committee members only. Observers are not permitted.
Please Note: The Graduate Program in Clinical and Translational Research (formerly the Division of Experimental Medicine) requires that all members of thesis committee meetings hold a full-time academic position. 聽Managers or directors of core facilities that support academic faculty, as well as postdoctoral fellows, cannot serve as members of thesis committees.
