The Executive Team is Here to Assist You if You Have a Question or Concern:
As a graduate student, several resources are available at RSI and at the University to help you with any questions that arise during your studies.
Students are encouraged to address their questions or concerns first with their supervisor, supervisory committee, or instructor, but students can also contact a member of the Executive Team for support. Questions related to program requirements, registration, fees and related issues are normally best directed to the Office of the Graduate Administrator. If you are unsure about how to deal with an issue and would like advice on what options or resources are available to you, you can also contact one of the Graduate Coordinators or the Associate Director.
