  Co-supervisors of an M.Sc. or Ph.D. thesis must hold a graduate faculty appointment. If the graduate appointment is from a department other than Pharmacology, the appointment of the Co-supervisor must be approved in writing by the Graduate Coordinator or Department Chair. Individuals who do not hold a graduate appointment but who have the expertise to contribute to directing a students' thesis research may be appointed to the supervisory committee for a particular student but cannot be designated as a co-supervisor.
