Advising

Incoming EDFL students are all initially assigned to the doctoral program coordinator, Dr. Olivier, as their temporary advisor. During your first semester or two, you should begin meeting with other professors in the department and discussing your research interests to see which professors share your topic area. Once you have decided who will be the best fit for you to chair your Qualifying Paper, Proposal, and Dissertation, and the professor of your choice has agreed, you should notify the doctoral program coordinator for advisor reassignment.
