The listing below includes all Graduate Faculty (GF) and Dissertation Advisor Status (DAS) Faculty Members appointed to date. GF/DAS applications are due in the fall and spring semesters. See updates related to the GF/DAS application timelines under the Graduate & DAS Faculty Resources section.

The University established the Graduate Faculty and Dissertation Advisor Status membership to enhance graduate education at FIU. To be eligible to serve as thesis major advisor or member on a thesis or dissertation committee, the individual FIU employee must be a member of the Graduate Faculty. To be eligible to serve as the chair of a dissertation committee, an individual must be a tenured or tenure-earning faculty member, be a member of the Graduate Faculty, and hold DAS. Graduate Faculty members holding DAS who are not tenured or tenure-earning faculty members may serve as co-chair of a dissertation committee.

The Dean of the University Graduate School appoints all dissertation committee members on the recommendation of the unit. The committee is comprised of at least four (4) members:

1) At least two of the four must be from the academic department offering the degree

2) At least one must be from the academic department at FIU

3) The fourth member may be from:

a) The academic department offering the degree

b) From another academic department at FIU

c) From outside the institution who has been reviewed and approved by the academic department and the University Graduate School

The major professor must be a member of the Graduate Faculty who holds DAS and must be an expert in the subject of the dissertation. Please be aware that the unit may have additional committee requirements. Additional committee members may be appointed.
