Academic Program Reviews
The Graduate School contributes to the strength of the
University's educational and research missions by conducting
quality assessment of proposed and continuing educational programs
at the graduate and undergraduate level as well as of research
institutes and centers. Reviews of educational programs are
mandated by state law at 10-year intervals, but are conducted at
shorter intervals when deemed appropriate. The assessment process
is one of peer review, with review teams individually assembled
from faculty of our and other leading research intensive
universities for each program reviewed. The review guidelines can
be viewed at http://www.grad.washington.edu/Acad/.
The documents that are developed as a part of this peer review
process are:
- Program Self-Study Report (Appendices excluded)
- Review Committee Report
- Program Response to Review Committee Report, and
- Recommendation to the Provost.
The documents from these program reviews are available
below, in PDF format. If you don't have a way to view PDF files on
