Please acknowledge the following CSD advisor responsibilities.

As an advisor, I understand I am making a commitment to work with a student throughout the life of his/her Capstone project (approximately 1 hour per month for two years).*
I will facilitate a smooth transition to a new advisor in the event there is a change in my UMass Chan standing or responsibilities.
I will advise no more than one student or one small group of students (2-3) from each of the four curriculum years (no more than 4 projects at any given point).
I will advise only those students in whose projects I have expertise and interest.
I will provide guidance to the student as he/she develops, writes, and presents a Capstone project.
I will participate in the evaluation of my advisees' Capstone projects through the review of regular student generated reports, and other evaluations deemed necessary.
I will guide the student(s) through the appropriate IRB or IACUC process(es).
I will contact the Capstone Scholarship and Discovery course leadership immediately if I have questions, comments, or concerns.

I agree with the responsibilities outlined above

Please contact me to further discuss the responsibilities
