Graduate Faculty and Council

Graduate Faculty

Graduate courses at Southeastern Oklahoma State University are conducted by members of the Graduate Faculty who are recognized for their scholarly activities, creativity, and ability to direct graduate research and study. They are recommended by the appropriate Department Chair and/or Program Coordinator and approved by the Dean of Graduate Studies.

Graduate Council

The Graduate Council is composed of coordinators of graduate programs, representatives from the Faculty Senate, two graduate students, and the Dean of Graduate Studies (ex-officio, non-voting). A faculty chair of this committee is elected by current members in September of each academic year.

The Graduate Council reviews graduate programs and makes recommendations for policy and procedure changes to all programs administered by the Dean of Graduate Studies. Additionally, the council serves as an appeals committee where all decisions are final. All items submitted for review must be submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies.
