====== Graduate Studies Committee (GSC) ======

At UT, each graduate degree program has a graduate studies committee.  The GSC is made up of all professors (at all ranks) in the program.

The GSC appoints a chairperson.

Here is what the GSC does:
  * Make recommendations for new graduate courses and any changes.
  * Set goals for the numbers of new students to be enrolled in the programs.
  * Setting admission requirements.
  * Recommend admission of students.
  * Set requirements for degrees.
  * Establish supplementary requirements for continuation in its program.
  * Recommend the committee chairs and committee members for supervision of theses and dissertations.
  * Recommend students for doctoral candidacy.
  * Make available to its students a description of its requirements, the procedures that a student is expected to follow in achieving a degree, and the standards demanded for continuation in the program.

The current GSC chair is Prof. Don Fussell.

Contrast the graduate studies committee role with: [[graduate_coordinator|Graduate Coordinator]], [[graduate_adviser|Graduate Adviser]], and department chair.
