Graduate Faculty

Every graduate student recruits a graduate committee to guide his or her plan of study and research. Graduate faculty are certified with different privileges and responsibilities, based on their own credentials. The following list is intended to help students identify suitable graduate faculty to recruit for their committee. Note that faculty names are linked to their biographies. Additionally, the following should be noted:

  • All graduate faculty are certified to teach CNIT graduate courses.
  • "Non-thesis" refers to the "directed project" and "coursework-only" M.S. degree programs.
Can chair, co-chair, or serve as a member of a Ph.D., M.S. thesis, or M.S. non-thesis student's committee
