Graduate Studies Committee

The Graduate Studies Committee is a Committee of the University Council and acts as an advisory committee to the Dean and to the Council. The membership of the Graduate Studies Committee is not fixed by Statute but following the Board decision in January 2005, it consists of the Directors of Teaching and Learning (Postgraduate) in the Schools in College. In addition the committee includes two elected representatives from the Graduate Students' Union, the Dean of Research as an ex officio member; the Keeper of Readers' Services is in attendance as an ex officio member and a representative of Information System Services is also in attendance. In order to accommodate current or forthcoming academic developments the Dean of Graduate Studies may propose to augment the committee through nomination to it, annually, of two non-voting members. Members of the Academic Appeals Committee for graduate students are drawn from the Graduate Studies Committee.
