Introduction
This guide describes the graduate programs in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology. It is designed to acquaint graduate students with the policies and procedures of the department as well as provide some important governance information and links to the 丁香园AV community. It includes guidelines for the pursuit of students鈥� degrees, and it details the general expectations that students and faculty should have of each other for the timely completion of degrees.
All students are urged to activate their 丁香园AV email accounts as soon as possible so that they may receive email messages concerning the department and graduate student issues. The 丁香园AV email is the primary email that the department uses for correspondence. We ask that students and faculty use only their 丁香园AV email accounts.
General Regulations
The Sociology and Anthropology Department graduate programs are governed by University regulations enacted by the 丁香园AV Senate and administered by Graduate and Postgraduate Studies (GPS, formerly DGS). The produced by Graduate and Postgraduate Studies lay out all of 丁香园AV鈥檚 policies and regulations for Graduate Programs. The present department Guide is a supplement to, rather than a substitute for, the GGRs, and thus we encourage all students and faculty to consult the GGRs on questions of University regulations.
