The authority for approving, implementing and maintaining regulations, standards and procedures lies with the School of Graduate Studies overseen by the Senate. Regulations are subject to periodic revision. Students are therefore advised to consult the School of Graduate Studies (SGS) website regularly, and to confer with the Director of Graduate Studies (DoGS) for their Graduate Academic Unit (GAU), to keep abreast of changes. If there is a discrepancy between the SGS Regulations and the regulations of the specific GAU, the Dean of Graduate Studies will have sole discretion to resolve the discrepancy.
For matters not expressly addressed in the general post graduate degree regulations, general University regulations as found in section B of the Undergraduate Calendar apply to graduate students unless clearly inapplicable in the graduate studies context.
