Graduate Student Handbook: Ph.D.: Summary of the Requirements Each Ph.D. student must submit an approved GS-2 form designating the student's program of study no later than the beginning of the second year of study. The GS-2 form is completed after the student's advisory committee has been formed and has approved the student's plan of study. The student's advisory committee must include at least four tenure track faculty members (see ECE list). Three of the members must be from within the ECE Department and one must be from outside the ECE Department. For the Advisory Committee the student selects the major advisor who, in consultation with the student, selects the additional committee members. Keep in mind that faculty members must consider their existing workloads before consenting to serve. As pointed out in the Graduate School Announcements, admission to the Graduate School does not qualify a student as a candidate for an advanced degree. Candidacy depends upon acceptance of the student's GS-4 form by the Graduate Dean. This form is completed after a major share of course work has been taken and after completion of the Comprehensive Examination.
Following are the requirements of the ECE Ph.D. Program after successful completion of the M. S. Degree:
