The Department’s Parking and Traffic Services Office is open for payment of traffic fines and purchase/distribution of parking permits between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Thesis and Dissertation Steps

The student should select the topic of their thesis/dissertation and find a faculty advisor who will work with them during the course of their thesis/dissertation. 

For a thesis committee, the student should choose the main advisor, as well as two other professors who will review and suggest revisions. The thesis committee should have a total of three members. For a dissertation committee, the student should choose the main advisor, as well as four other professors who will review and suggest revisions. The dissertation committee should have a total of five members. When the student has selected the members of their committee, the student needs to submit a Thesis or Dissertation Committee Selection Form to the Graduate Office (Torreyson West 328). Details about the thesis and dissertation process can be found on our Thesis and Dissertation webpage.
