Graduate Coordinator
Graduate Advising Committee
The Graduate Advising Committee (GAC) advises students in the academic track of the graduate program, approves course plans, and evaluates satisfactory progress toward the degree. Each fall and spring semester during the registration period, every graduate student in Computer Sciences who does not have a dissertation advisor needs to meet with a GAC member. Such students need to see a GAC member again during the semester in case of changes to the course plan. Students seeking deadline extensions or exceptions need to meet with the GAC Chair, currently Professor Eftychios Sifakis.
No appointment necessary during posted office hours.
