Q&A: From the Technological
Studies Department?
A: Consult with
your graduate advisor and suggest names of graduate faculty members that you
have had classes or think would have interest in the area you are interested
in researching. Discuss
them with you major advisor. Then ask the faculty member if S/he will be on
your committee. Be
sure to find out if the faculty member will be available during the time you
are working on your final paper. Sabbaticals,
retirement, or major projects may limit the graduate faculty member's
availability.
