2012-2013 Degree Plan

Name:       Advisor’s Name:       Concentration:      

Student ID:       Entering Semester/Year:      

Student’s E-mail:       Anticipated Graduation Semester/Year:      

Students are responsible for reading the catalog, meeting the degree requirements for their concentration, and adhering to the deadlines published in the school’s Academic Calendar. Students should consult the SPH Catalog for specific information on the use of transfer credit and how these credits may be applied toward the completion of the PhD degree. Official transcripts must be filed with the School of Public Health before courses can be approved. Once complete, students should obtain their Advisor’s signature and return this document to the SPH Office of Admission & Academic Services. The student is responsible for keeping a copy of the degree plan.

Once the Degree Plan has been submitted, students have the option of substituting “approved elective courses” without further approval from the Academic Advisor or the Office of Admission and Academic Services. However, if the student wishes to substitute a core, required, or an elective course not listed in the degree requirements, a “Request for Modifications to Degree Plan” form must be completed by the student, submitted to the Academic Advisor for approval, and provided to the Office of Admission and Academic Services. It is the responsibility of the student to communicate with his or her advisor at least once during each semester to review the student’s academic progress.
