Graduate Students – Ph.D. Program
Advising
During their first year, students will receive mentoring from the field clerks of the specialization they identified in their applications or from the Graduate Program Director (GPD) if the students prefer. Thereafter, with help from the field clerks, GPD, and based on their own classroom experiences, students should identify a principal faculty member to serve as their mentor for advising. The choice does not preclude working with other faculty, or determine which faculty member will serve as their thesis chair.
