Dear All,</div>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"><span style="color: black;">It is time for BPHY graduate students to plan and complete their Annual Progress Report. A face-to-face meeting with the guidance committee is highly recommended so the student can discuss the research progress
and graduation plan with the committee and obtain advice on their performance. <b>
The annual progress report must be completed </b></span><b>either </b><span style="color: black;"><b>after the meeting or
</b></span><b>during the </b><span style="color: black;"><b>progress discussion.</b></span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in;"> </p>
<p class="elementToProof" style="margin: 0in;">Deadline August 5<sup>th</sup>, 2024 (if you are taking the written comprehensive exam, your deadline is September 22, 2024)</p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"> </p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: black;">Here is the process:</span></p>

<li style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; color: black; margin: 0in;">
Graduate students will schedule annual meetings with their guidance committees. The student must complete a 2-5 page summary of their research progress and send a copy to their guidance committee before their meeting. Upon completing your meeting or research
progress discussion with your guidance committee, you must complete the Student Annual Progress Report form (see the link below) and attach a PDF copy of your research progress report.
