  • The Graduate Faculty Council By-law Change

    The Graduate Faculty Council recently approved a change to its by-laws that allows for use of electronic signatures for approval of master’s theses and dissertations.  A new online system has been developed that will allow each committee member to signify their approval electronically through a secure platform.  This means that paper copies of approval pages with “wet” signatures will no longer be required.  Details regarding the new system and its implementation can be found at https://registrar.uconn.edu/graduation/.
