The Graduate Assistant Survey was developed in order to examine the kinds of duties employed graduate
students have and the amount of time spent on these job-related tasks. Administrators were also
interested in how the experiences of graduate assistants may vary across University departments.
Through the survey, administrators intend to gather data on the “worklife” of employed graduate students
as it pertains to the completion of their academic responsibilities. By gaining an overall view of the
graduate assistant experience, campus administrators plan to influence institutional policies and practices
to ultimately improve or encourage degree completion.
Provost William Destler appointed a committee of faculty, staff, and graduate students to examine the complex issues affecting completion of doctoral degrees at the University of Maryland and to make recommendations for improving completion rates. The committee issued its report on June 6. The Graduate School welcomes questions or comments.
This document summarizes the activities related to graduate education at the University for 2006-2007. Covers financial data, information on admissions and graduate enrollment, diversity, Graduate School operations, and degrees conferred.

The Thesis and Dissertation Style Guide is the official style guide for all University of Maryland Theses and Dissertaions. Since the Fall of 2003, the Graduate School has not accepted hard-copy Thesis and Dissertation documents. Instead, through an arrangment with Proquest Learning Services, the Graduate School accepts these documents online via the World Wide Web (PDF, .rtf, and MS Word format only). This Style Guide lists the revised electronic and formatting required by the new submission process, as well as outlines the details of the submission process.
Users of statistical packages such as SAS, SPSS, STATA, and those who feel they need additional help with creating an acceptable electronic file should click here for the ETD Help Page, a clearinghouse of sites and instructions that may prove helpful.
