Doctoral Student Annual Review
Doctoral
Student Annual Review Form
1. By April 15 of each year, the doctoral student completes the annual
review form and submits it electronically to the doctoral coordinator
for his/her discipline. The information provided on the report should
relate to the previous calender year - spring, summer, and fall semesters.
2. The doctoral coordinator immediately provides copies or fowards the
report electronically of the student’s completed self-evaluation
to all doctoral faculty in the discipline.
3. The doctoral faculty in the student’s discipline reviews the
student’s form and any other appropriate information about the
student’s performance during the academic year.
4. The doctoral faculty in the discipline provide performance feedback
on the doctoral student to the doctoral program coordinator within four
weeks of receiving the doctoral student’s annual review form.
Each discipline may decide the appropriate means by which this performance
feedback will be provided to the doctoral coordinator.
5. The doctoral coordinator compiles an overall written evaluation of
the student’s performance in the classroom, in research, and as
a graduate assistant. The narrative should contain feedback on the student’s
performance in the classroom, in research, and as a graduate assistant.
The narrative should contain a review of the student’s performance
strengths and weaknesses, as well as recommendations for improvement.
This narrative should be approved (by vote or consensus) by the doctoral
faculty in the discipline.
6. Within six weeks of the student’s submission of the annual
review form, the doctoral coordinator in the discipline schedules a
feedback session with the doctoral student, in which the doctoral faculty’s
appraisal of the student’s performance is discussed.
7. Within eight weeks of the student’s submission of the annual
review form, the student receives a written copy of the narrative performance
appraisal and a copy will be submitted to the Graduate Studies in Business
office to be placed in his/her file.
8. Although the primary purpose of the annual review is to provide formal,
regular feedback to doctoral students on their performance in ALL aspects
of their doctoral student role, in cases of extreme or repeated unsatisfactory
performance, the doctoral faculty may utilize the annual review to recommend
a range of actions to the graduate director, including but not limited
to suspension of the student, removal of the student’s assistantship,
and/or termination of the student’s program.
