Graduate Program Review Committee

The Graduate Program Review Committee ensures graduate student experiences are included in the academic program review process conducted by the Graduate School.  Committee members help administer a survey of graduate students enrolled in the program and participate in focus group discussions. The results of these activities are summarized and presented as reports to the Graduate School and Reviewing Committee and become part of the permanent departmental record. These reports also help the Reviewing Committee generate its final report that critically evaluates the program and sets the course for the future direction of the program.

Members:  GPSS President (or proxy – Chief of Staff) and six to ten Senators. 

Meetings:  At least once per quarter during the academic year.
