College of Graduate Studies handles all types of issues affecting
graduate students, from admission through the awarding of
graduate certificates and degrees. The dean of the college has a
variety of duties including: continually advocating for excellence
regarding every aspect of the graduate enterprise, reviewing existing
programs, encouraging the development of new programs,
promoting and supporting graduate student research and creative
endeavors, increasing support for graduate programs and graduate
students, building and maintaining the institutional infrastructure
for graduate education, and enforcing university policies regarding
graduate education.
The Graduate Student Handbook is available on the College
of Graduate Studies website for all CMU graduate students.
This handbook describes graduate policies and procedures and
provides detailed information about financial support opportunities
at CMU.
The staff of the College of Graduate Studies is available to
answer questions or help current and prospective graduate students
with any problems they may have. In addition, if you have
general questions concerning graduate studies at CMU, the Office
of the Dean or the Graduate Student Services staff are happy to
