Announcement and Report of Exam

Annual Activities and Accomplishment Report - due each Apr 15 while in the program.

Committee on Studies (COS) forms:

• Appointment - Due June after admission into MSCR program.
  • Please review Student Committee Composition requirements prior to submission.
  • Non-UNM tenure track faculty committee members (Category 2 or Category 4):
    • Four weeks before your comprehensive exam or defense date, students are responsible for submitting the email address, phone number, and CV/Biosketch for Category 2 (Non-UNM tenured or tenure track faculty) or Category 4 (Others considered experts in the field) committee members to SOMREO@salud.unm.edu. Please also indicate if the person is tenure track faulty at a non-UNM institution in your request. Optional: OGS asks for the race and gender of the committee member. SOMREO will submit the person to OGS for committee service approval.
      NOTE: The turnaround time for OGS processing these requests can vary. It is recommended that you submit people to be approved for committee service as soon as you are considering them for your committee. They do not ultimately need to serve on your committee even if you submit them for committee service approval.
  • If your appointed tenure-track committee member leaves UNM, retires, or changes status, you need to request their approval for committee service (see above).
• Report: due every 3 months.
