Establishing a Faculty of Graduate Studies
We are pleased to share that with Board of Governor鈥檚 approval (March 27, 2025), we are now the Faculty of Graduate Studies, and SFU鈥檚 official ninth faculty!
We look forward to strengthening how we work together with our key partners to improve the graduate student experience from recruitment and application, through to convocation and beyond.
You can read more about the announcement on SFU News, review the progress we鈥檙e making on our Strategic Priorities.
This exciting achievement would not have been possible without the support provided by our colleagues across the University. We look forward to working with the SFU community in our new capacity!
Lead up to Establishing a Faculty of Graduate Studies
Since March 2024, Graduate Studies has been consulting with the SFU community to develop a proposal to establish the Office of Graduate Studies (GS) as a Faculty of Graduate Studies (FGS).
The proposal was approved by Senate in November 2024. The next, and final, stage in the approval process is for it to go before the Board of Governors in March 2025.
Pending approval at the March 2025 Board of Governors meeting, Graduate Studies is poised to hold the first Faculty of Graduate Studies Assembly meeting in May 2025.
In preparation for our (tentative) first Faculty of Graduate Studies Assembly meeting, we will be working with the Graduate Student Society to hold elections for six (6) graduate student voting members.
Additionally, we will be working with programs and Faculties to nominate interested graduate program staff members to be selected for two (2) positions on the Faculty of Graduate Studies Assembly to serve as non-voting members.
Review the proposal and the Terms of Reference for the proposed Faculty of Graduate Studies Assembly.
