Graduate Faculty Cabinet

The Graduate Faculty Cabinet serves as the executive committee of the graduate faculty. Issues associated with graduate education are often distinctly different from those that surround undergraduate education.  To provide faculty and student input to policy decisions, the Graduate Faculty Cabinet is an elected body representing the Graduate Faculty, serves in an advisory capacity to the Dean of the Graduate College, approves new graduate programs, and establishes educational policies that govern graduate education throughout the College. This Cabinet is part of the Faculty Senate Academic Affairs Council starting in the 2024-2025 academic year. All meeting information is hosted on the Faculty Senate Graduate Faculty Cabinet webpage.
