Graduate Faculty

Full Graduate Faculty

Graduate education is dedicated to the continued scholarship and professional development of our students. The Graduate School at NDSU sets as the defining principle of graduate education the formation of a special professional relationship between students and program faculty. This professional relationship culminates through mentorship that is developed between a student and a faculty mentor.

In recognition of the role of graduate education, and the importance of mentorship, the Graduate School identifies individuals as being members of the Graduate faculty. This faculty should teach and mentor graduate students. Programs should strive to have courses taught by Graduate Faculty members and student advisory committees composed of Graduate Faculty members. Graduate Faculty status confers certain rights, privileges, and responsibilities to individuals holding this status. The following sections define the various recognized levels of Graduate Faculty membership and the rights pertaining to each.

Full Member of the Graduate Faculty

Full-status members of the Graduate Faculty of North Dakota State University (NDSU) consist of all persons who hold a probationary (tenure-track) or tenured appointment and have been appointed to the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor in an academic unit or program area at NDSU.

A full-status member of the Graduate Faculty of NDSU may teach graduate courses, serve as a member of supervisory committees, chair supervisory committees, serve as the Graduate School appointee to supervisory committees, serve as a member of graduate student appeals committees, serve as a member of the Graduate Council, vote at graduate faculty meetings, and serve in any other capacity as required.

Persons holding a special appointment (non-tenure track) as a Professor of Practice at NDSU who have been appointed to the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor in an academic unit or program area at NDSU will be granted the status of Associate Member of the Graduate Faculty of NDSU for the term of their appointment to the academic staff. These individuals may serve as the chair of the supervisory committee in professional and applied graduate programs (programs not offering the MS, MA, or PhD). They may also teach graduate courses and serve as members of supervisory committees.

Persons who have been granted a courtesy appointment (adjunct) with NDSU who are not fulltime employees and persons holding appointments as members of the graduate faculty at another institution may, upon application by the faculty of an academic unit or program area of NDSU, approval of the Graduate Council, and confirmation by the Dean of the College of Graduate and Interdisciplinary Studies, be granted the status of Associate Member of the Graduate Faculty of NDSU for a period not to exceed six years. These individuals may teach graduate courses and serve as members of supervisory committees.  The following information needs to be provided: a letter of endorsement from the program administrator (chair, head, or director), including a rationale for the request and an indication of faculty approval; a current copy of the nominee's curriculum vitae; and any other pertinent documentation.

Members of the Graduate Faculty who have left the institution may be granted status as an Associate Member of the Graduate Faculty, upon approval of the academic unit leader, the dean of the academic college, and the Dean of the College of Graduate and Interdisciplinary Studies. These individuals will have all of the rights of an Associate Member of the Graduate Faculty. In addition, they may continue to serve as a chair of a supervisory committee for doctoral students who have completed their preliminary/comprehensive examination. Individuals eligible for this status include:

  • Emeritus Faculty. Persons who are granted emeritus faculty status are eligible for associate graduate faculty status for a period of three years. Membership as an Associate Member of the Graduate
    Faculty may be renewed upon approval of the Graduate Council and the Dean of the College of Graduate and Interdisciplinary Studies.
  • Individuals who have retired or left NDSU for other employment opportunities are eligible for status as an Associate Member of the Graduate Faculty for one year.  This is not renewable.  If advisees have not completed their academic work during the one year period, these individuals may continue to serve on the supervisory as a co-chair.  A Full Member of the Graduate Faculty will also need to be identified as co-chair of the supervisory committee.

Graduate Teaching Waivers

Graduate teaching waivers may be granted to individuals who do not meet the requirements for either full or associate graduate faculty status. Teaching waivers only allow individuals to serve as the instructor of record for graduate level courses and carry none of the other privileges of graduate faculty status. Waivers may be granted to qualified individuals who are not students in the department for which the waiver is sought.  Graduate teaching waivers may be granted to individuals who do not meet the requirements for either full or associate graduate faculty status.  Graduate teaching waivers should be granted sparingly.  A request for a waiver should include a rationale for why the individual nominated is the best choice for teaching the particular course.  Teaching waivers are most appropriate for elective courses or courses in applied/professional programs for which experiences gained by professionals will provide a valuable educational opportunity for the students. Teaching waivers should not be requested for required courses in a program, unless no other viable alternative exists. The request for teaching waivers should not be seen as a long-term solution to inadequate numbers of tenure-track faculty members. Thus departments will also be asked to explain their long-term plan to fill any deficiencies in their ability to offer courses for which a waiver is requested.

The burden of proof lies with the applying graduate program to show that the nominee holds qualifications that merit the granting of a graduate teaching waiver. A Graduate Teaching Waiver Request form must be completed with a current copy of the nominee's curriculum vitae and any other pertinent documentation attached.

Graduate teaching waivers are approved by the Graduate Council and the Dean of the Graduate School. Waivers are granted for one academic year and may be renewed twice at the discretion of the Dean of the Graduate School.
