Evaluate current and newly admitted students for Teaching Assistantships and recommend candidates for such graduate appointments as Research Assistantships, Fellowships or Tuition Scholarships. (Needs to know how many assistantships available.) Submit any applications with letter of recommendation for University Distinguished Fellowships. Assign TAs to specific courses, supervise, and evaluate their performance each semester. Ensure that TAs have properly formed help desk hours, distribute all helpdesks hours including on MSSC webpage. Evaluate TAs performance each semester in conjunction with their course instructor.

Advising and Registration
Upon admission and each semester, make recommendations for student courses and offer an advising meeting to discuss the semester courses and larger program course plan. Email students when the new schedule of classes is available. Ensure that students on University Assistantships (not grants or fellowships) are properly registered for nine credits. For each semester coordinate the signing of MSSC 6995 and 8995 forms and email to Josh Burns for processing. For each semester, coordinate the creation and disbursement of permission numbers for courses (i.e. MSSC 6960, 6994, 6975, 6998, 6999, 8999, 9970, 9974-9999.) Ensure PhD students only count 9 credits of MSSC 8995 in 45 required credits. In accordance with Graduate School policies, advise and counsel graduate students. In mid to late fall of student’s first year, advise students to make a short list of five potential dissertation advisors. In early spring of first year advise students to narrow down the short list to one or two to leisurely read with over summer. In mid-summer of first year advise students to register for MSSC 8995 independent study with summer reading faculty member. In mid fall of student’s second year advise students to plan on writing a CSSRF proposal and a master’s thesis or essay. After each semester coordinate student RWAR appeals from the graduate school. Review and approve International student requests for CPT and OPT. Oversee students filing for graduation, PhD public defense form, defense paperwork, and conduct graduation audits. Write letters of recommendation for students.
Progress
Each semester evaluates the performance of CMPS-PhD students. Ensures students are meeting their milestones of 1) completing core courses within two years full-time or three years part-time, (2) sitting for the written comprehensive exam before their third year, (3) submitting doctoral committee within one semester of passing the comprehensive exam, (4) submission of doctoral program planning form within one month of approval of the doctoral committee, (5) sit for the doctoral qualifier (dissertation proposal) within one year of passing the comprehensive exam. Formally approve of dissertation committees. Sign and submit DPPF and Dissertation Outlines to the Graduate School. Submit DQE results to the graduate school. Maintain a list of students achieved milestones. After each milestone completed, send each student a congratulatory email with the next milestone and instructions on how it can be satisfied. Oversee very senior CMPS-PhD students beyond year 5 and up to the maximum time limit of 8 years. Approve or disapprove of applications for extended time beyond 8 years in consultation with the graduate committee. Annually revise and distribute the Graduate Student Handbook.

Submit annual CMPS-PhD and CMPS-MS assessment reports. Attend annual and other assessment meetings. Review each graduate program annually; keep informed of changes in emphases and curriculum trends in graduate mathematical and Statistical Sciences and promote, initiate and develop such new programs as are feasible to meet Departmental, University and community needs.
