Advising and Thesis Forms

Please review Guidelines and Regulations for Completion of Masters and PhD Degrees or the MPH Handbook or checklist for a detailed explanation on how to complete your Thesis.  All forms must be typed and submitted to the Education Assistant, Natalie Chin (located in the front office of our department), who will obtain the final signature for the Director of Education, William Lambert, where required.  If Natalie is not in the office, please put the forms in her mailbox or see Education Manager, Tree Triano, in room 663B.

 

The thesis forms must be submitted in the following order.  Please pay careful attention to deadlines.  Please also note that the Mentor Assignment form, the Request for Advisory Committee form, and the Request for Oral Exam form are subject to change.  If you do not use the latest version, Graduate Studies may decline the form.  To help prevent this from happening, we have linked to the page where Grad Studies stores these forms so you can obtain the latest version directly from them.

 

Mentor/Advisor Assignment Form - Master's Program
This form must be submitted as soon as you choose your permanent These Mentor (by mutual agreement) and prior to registering for thesis credits.
Request for Advisory (Thesis) Committee Form  AND Thesis Committee Proposal Review  (These are TWO separate forms that must be submitted simultaneously.)
    • Both of these forms must be submitted at least four weeks prior to the submission of the Request for Oral Exam paperwork (see below). 
    • We cannot approve the Request for Advisory Committee form without the Committee Approval form.
    • Please note that according to the Graduate Studies Guidelines, students must submit this paperwork within a year of matriculation. 
    • You will need to attach the CV of any committee members that are not members of Graduate Faculty.  You can look up the names of OHSU's Graduate Faculty members here:

Request for Oral Examination Form

The Request for Oral Exam form must be submitted to us at least four weeks prior to the Thesis Defense Date.  Please provide administrative staff an additional few days of lead time for processing. Contact Natalie in the PHPM Education Office to reserve a room for your thesis defense prior to submitting the form.

 

 

Oral Exam Certification Form

 

The Office of Graduate Studies provides the Oral Exam Chair with a completed PDF of the Oral Exam Certification form (OEC) prior to the defense, It is the responsibility of the Oral Exam Chair to bring this form to your defense and to make sure it is filed with the Office of Graduate Studies (4th floor, Mac Hall) within 48 business hours of your defense.  The PHPM Education Office can also submit the form should the Oral Exam Chair be unable to do so.


Upon completion of your written thesis, the Thesis Binding Receipt must be submitted to Graduate Studies.  For more information please review OHSU Library's Thesis Processing.
