Student evaluations are conducted annually. Course work, research, continued progress toward the degree goal, and professional development are examined in these evaluations. As a basis for the evaluation, students annually submit information about their progress and accomplishments to the concentration faculty, following procedures established by the concentration. On the basis of this material, a written evaluation of the student’s performance will be prepared and given to the student. This written review will include an overall assessment of the student’s performance as either unsatisfactory, satisfactory, or excellent and will identify specific areas of concern, if there are any. Such areas of concern may exist, and if so will be noted, even when the student’s overall performance is satisfactory or excellent. A copy of both the material submitted for review by the student and the written evaluation will be submitted to the Chair of Graduate Studies for placement in the student's file.
