Advisory Committee Report Form (pdf)

The purpose of the form is to encourage dialogue between the student, chief supervisor, and members of the advisory committee. This information should clearly state what is required of the student and provide a guideline for timeline over which the activity should be performed. The information contained with the advisory committee report form should be consistent with the student’s current plan of study. At least one advisory committee member in addition to the supervisor must be from the HRS program.

It is the responsibility of the student and their supervisor(s) to complete and submit this report to the HRS program office annually before the end of May throughout the student’s enrolment in the program.
