Thesis Deadlines
     The Thesis Committee in conjunction with the Dean's Office has established the following deadlines for theses submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in May 2007. These deadlines add additional time for students to complete their final drafts, and for departmental review. The deadlines ensure that (1) students have all possible available time to complete their theses; (2) that there is sufficient time for departmental review and subsequent revision by students before final approval. These deadlines are rigidly adhered to without exception to maintain the integrity of the thesis requirement.


Thesis Deadlines

January 12, 2007
1st Draft to Thesis Advisor

February 9, 2007
Final Draft to Dept. Thesis Committee

March 9, 2007
Final (bound copy) to Student Research
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
     Students missing the February 9 and March 9 deadline will not be considered for honors or prizes. Extensions beyond the above thesis deadlines will be made only for special circumstances and must have the approval of both the student's Advisor and the Departmental Thesis Committee Chairperson. Such extensions, if granted, will carry the ABSOLUTE deadlines listed below:


Thesis Extension Deadlines

April 5, 2007
Final Draft to Dept. Thesis Committee

May 4, 2007
Final (Bound) to Student Research
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
     Students missing either of these deadlines will not receive their degree at Graduation in May. Review of such late theses will be done by faculty outside of the primary department of the student, to be chosen by the Dean, and will take up to 1-2 months. Upon approval of the thesis, such students will be eligible for receiving a degree in June or September, thus jeopardizing their residency.


*Deadlines Memo & Form for Thesis Plan

 
     *To complete the application form electronically, download the PDF file on the left and open it using either Adobe Acrobat writer 4.x or 5.x or Adobe Acrobat Reader 4.x or 5.x. Further instructions are available within the document itself.
     Alternatively, download and print the application document using Acrobat Reader for PDF files or Microsoft Word for DOC files (Windows only).  Fill out the printed application using a type-writer, word processor, or by printing neatly.
     Students are strongly encouraged to submit their theses before the above deadlines since this provides both students and the sponsoring departments more time for useful review and revision. It should be recognized by all concerned that the integrity of the thesis requirement requires adherence to the above deadlines. If extensions are granted, the deadlines cited above will be adhered to rigidly without exception and students missing either of these deadlines will not graduate in May 2007.
     It is essential that we receive the planned title of your thesis and your advisor's name, title, department and internal mailing address. Please complete the form in the memo above and return it to the Office of Student Research, ESH 310 by August 25, 2006.
