FACULTY INVOLVED IN THE
PROGRAM
(1) The Ph.D. Program Committee
This
committee of 10 professors (the Co-directors plus four other Program
Faculty from each campus) is responsible for administering the Joint Ph.D.
Program in Education. The Committee deals with matters of recruitment
and admissions,
curriculum,
Program evaluation, student progress, and the Program's policies and
procedures.
(2) The Ph.D. Program Faculty
All
students in the Program have their own Doctoral Committee of four (in some
unusual cases, five) professors (at least two from each campus).
These individual Doctoral Committees have the primary responsibility as
mentors during the years of doctoral work, culminating in the dissertation. The chair of a Doctoral
Committee--known as the Major Professor--serves as a student's overall
academic advisor and as the chair of the dissertation. Only the
members of the Program
Faculty (about 20 members of the graduate faculty from each campus) are
eligible to serve as Major Professor.
See
the list of Program
Faculty, with their office locations, telephone numbers, and e-mail
addresses. Concise profiles of professors’ research interests follow
their names. By clicking on a given name, you will obtain information on a
professor’s background, teaching, and publications.
(3) The Graduate Faculty
A
complete listing of the Graduate Faculty at each campus is included in
their current catalogs. Professors on the Graduate Faculty may serve
as members of Doctoral Committees, although (as noted above) the chair of a
Doctoral Committee must also belong to the Program Faculty.
