Form Information

PhD students and master’s thesis plan students must submit a thesis approval form (TAF) to ensure that the final copy has been accepted by the thesis committee. The TAF must be uploaded as part of the electronic thesis submission process���ٳ���dzܲ�����, as a supplementary file. To have the degree awarded in any given semester, the thesis and TAF must both be submitted by the thesis/dissertation deadline. Deadlines and other graduation requirements are posted on the Graduate School’s website.

Signatures Required

Signatures must be obtained through the process below from the committee chair and any one other committee member. The form must be signed by both in advance of the deadline.
