Annual Review Details:
Annual Review Requirements:
The Annual Review is available and submitted through Desire to Learn: MSU.
It is typically due near the end of April.
RCR requirements, detailed below, are part of the Annual Review. However, RCR must be completed by August, and not April.
As part of the Annual Review, all students are asked to attend and/or watch at least 80% of the Brown Bag Meetings for the given year (e.g. September 2018 - April 2019).
The requirements for First-Year students are different from any year that follows. To see previous examples, click here.
RCR Requirements:
As part of the Annual Review: all students must report their completed annual Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) hours (current EPET Handbook)..
If you've not yet completed your RCR requirements (regardless of the Annual Review submission deadline), students must complete their hours by August 16, 2019. RCR details are below...
First-year students complete no less than five (5) hours. In the years that follow, students must complete three (3) hours annually.
This website (RCR OVERVIEW) notes the exact requirements and lists various opportunities to satisfy your annual requirements.
RCR hours may also be satisfied through coursework topics/efforts - email your professors to confirm.

Planning to Graduate?
A Few Key Items:
You MUST be an enrolled student (in course credit - such as Dissertation Credit) in the term you plan to Defend.
Your participation in the College Hooding Ceremony/Graduation is determined by the date you Defend:
If you plan to Defend between January 1 and June 30th, you MAY ONLY participate in May.
If you plan to Defend between July 1 and December 31st, you MAY ONLY participate in December.
You do NOT have to be enrolled in the term that follows your Defense/Graduation while you're submitting your Dissertation to the College for publishing.
Last: It is the responsibility of the student to check deadlines and details pertaining to Graduation. Sharon, as well as your Advisor, can be of great help.
Checklist Items:
Start by applying to Graduate: LINK. This should be in done in the first month or two of the term you plan to defend (e.g. January or February for May Graduation).
Next, review the forms for Ph.D. Students here: LINK.
Next, rent or buy your regalia via MSU Spirit Shop: LINK.
Next, confirm that all details in your Grad Plan are up to date and complete, as best as possible.
Next, submit Doctoral Hooding Form at least ONE month before graduation (follow stated deadline).
This form is only available through College. Email Sharon or Ayodele.
If you want to publicly announce your Defense, you must submit a Notice of Doctoral Dissertation Oral Examination.
This must be done one to two weeks prior to the Defense. From is available via PhD Forms above, above.
Submit your Dissertation to committee two weeks prior to scheduled Defense.
Work with your advisor on this.
On Defense Day, have prepared and be ready to submit Record of Dissertation and Oral Examination Requirements Form (available via PHD Forms above).
