Course Overview
The Graduate Coordinator and the Associate Chair are responsible for ensuring that the regulations for M.Sc. and Ph. D. degrees are met and for the daily operation of the office. The Graduate Coordinator and the Graduate Office Assistant are often your first contact for most enquires as primary duties include processing graduate applications, recommendations for acceptance to the program, Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) and Graduate Research Studentship (GRS) payroll, scholarship and award processes, paperwork for meetings and all issues related to Graduate courses and student records. The Associate Chair reports to both the Chair of the Department and to the Associate Dean, Graduate Studies for Science. The Associate Dean chairs the Science Graduate Studies Committee, which is responsible for directing the graduate program of the Faculty of Science. The Science Graduate Studies Committee is responsible for approving such things as time extensions for in-course graduate students and new courses. Graduate students are welcome to approach the Associate Chair or the Graduate Coordinator at any time for clarification of rules or advice. In the rare instance of a disagreement between a student and the supervisory committee, attempts at resolution should first be directed to the Associate Chair.
