Graduate Faculty, Graduate Council, GS Quarterly Meetings

Graduate faculty

The graduate faculty are those members of the general faculty approved to conduct graduate education at Ohio State. Although appointment to the faculty must precede appointment to the graduate faculty and is a condition of it, a faculty appointment does not in itself confer graduate faculty membership. See Section 15 of the Graduate School Handbook.

The Graduate School's Graduate Faculty Database provides access to each graduate faculty member's committee service history. It is also the portal for graduate faculty nominations. More

Graduate faculty representative

Graduate faculty at Ohio State serve as graduate faculty representatives on doctoral exams for those students taking second candidacy examinations and final oral examinations (defenses).

Assigned by the Graduate School to doctoral exams taking place in any graduate program, grad faculty reps are full voting members of each examination committee. More
