Proposal Approval Form must be completed once while in the program. Students do not have to register for summer unless they are going to defend during that semester. As long as that student registers for fall, they will be able to use university research facilites such as Milner Library during the summer.
Procedure for 599.01: If a student has already taken 15 hours of C&I 599 and has not yet defended their dissertation, this student may register for C&I 599.01 instead of C&I 599, thus incurring only tuition costs and no fees. This must also have the prior approval by the coordinator, who notifies the secretary, who then initiates the registration. Students themselves cannot register for C&I 599.01.
