SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY
Senate Graduate Studies Committee
1992 REPORT TO SENATE
The Dean of Graduate Studies is responsible for the general supervision of graduate work at the
University and chairs the Senate Graduate Studies Committee. This report outlines the position
of graduate studies at Simon Fraser University, describes some changes made in 1992 and makes
recommendations for future directions.
The enclosed copy of the 1993 S.F.U. Graduate Studies Fact Book describes, in quantitative
terms, the graduate student body in Fall 1992 and provides some retrospective data on
completion rates. It is the third edition. It is designed to complement information in the Simon
Fraser University Fact Book, produced by the Office of Analytical Studies.
I.
Enrolments and Degrees
Table I shows the recent history of graduate enrolments and degrees granted. The FTE
S
enrolment figures should be treated with caution on two grounds. Prior to the Fall 1989, they
were determined through a reporting process which was subject to considerable variation
between departments. Starting in the Fall 1989, a new, rigorous definition of Part-time status
was adopted; this was primarily responsible for the large change in the (Head Count)/FTE ratio
between 1988/89 and 1989/90. The official recognition of Part-time status and the introduction
of a reduced semester tuition fee for Part-time students were major advances in improving the
accessibility of our graduate programs. Programs approved for part-time study are listed in
Appendix A.
As requested by Senate in January, 1989, I can report that the introduction of a formal
requirement of competence in the English language has proceeded very smoothly. A very small
fraction of applicants recommended for admission whose first language is not English did not
produce TOEFL scores of at least
570.
Of these, a large majority submitted satisfactory other
evidence of their English language competence. Most TOEFL scores are over 600.
II.
Degree Completion/Withdrawal
Degree completion times are presented, starting on page 26, in the Graduate Studies Fact Book.
It should be noted that these data do not take into account the possibility that a student may
have been enrolled part-time for all
or part of the program and thus overstate completion times,
especially for programs with large numbers of part-time students.
I remain concerned by what appear in many cases to be excessive times for degree completion.
When resources are limited, it is especially important that they be used effectively and

 
S.G.S.C. Report to Senate. Page 2
efficiently. The Ministry of Postsecondary Education has recently become interested in degree
completion time and may be considering measures that would effectively penalize universities
with lengthy completion times.
I am actively encouraging departments to ensure both that their degree requirements are realistic
and that their students make satisfactory progress, as required by Senate regulations, toward
meeting those requirements. The Graduate Studies Handbook, first published in 1991, contains
guidelines for supervisors and students that (if followed) should improve prospects for
expeditious degree completion. I am also considering more rigorous enforcement of the
regulations requiring annual progress reports.
I am also pressing for timely appointment of supervisory committees. In establishing the
Graduate Studies Database, I encountered many students who had been here for several years,
yet apparently had no supervisory committees. This situation has largely been remedied; each
semester, reminders about 'delinquent' students are sent to departments by my office; a minor
flood of committee recommendations follows.
Withdrawal rates are presented, starting on page 39, in the Graduate Studies Fact Book. There
are tremendous variations in rates between programs. The overall rates for the University as a
whole are in line with the results of similar studies performed in the U.S. I know of no directly
comparable studies yet completed in Canada, although both the Canadian Association for
Graduate Studies (of which I am President) and the Western Canadian Deans of Graduate
Studies are proceeding with projects to compile these data, as well as degree completion time
data.
I am very concerned about the low completion rates in some of our graduate programs.
Withdrawal may be due to any one of or a combination of factors including: lack of ability, lack
of motivation, lack of financial resources, health problems, and deficiencies in the graduate
programs and/or their implementation. For the last several years, I assisted a Master's student in
Education, Ms. Marianne Yeatman, who, as her thesis research, performed a study of students
who withdrew from their graduate programs. The study had both statistical and anecdotal
components and made some interesting generalizations about the importance of the factors
outlined above. The thesis was successfully defended early last year and is available in the S.F.U.
Library. As of January 1, 1993, I have instituted an exit questionnaire to gather information about
many aspects of our graduate programs from students who successfully complete their degrees
and from those who withdraw. Because of the need for confidentiality, the results will be
analyzed only statistically, once enough students respond; it will thus be at least a year until
results will be available for most programs.
Meanwhile, I am continuing to press for improved funding for graduate financial aid. There had
been very substantial increases to the graduate scholarships budget in the previous two years.
Unfortunately, this year there was a significant reduction. I have argued strenuously to reverse
this action and provide increased support for graduate students. I am very pleased that the cur-
rent agreement with Teaching Support Staff Union increases the Teaching Assistant stipend and
reduces the workload. The latter factor will both allow students more time for their studies and

 
S.G.S.C. Report to Senate. Page 3
will create additional teaching assistant positions, allowing more graduate students to receive
appointments.
ifi. Grades
Page 9 of the Graduate Studies Fact Book gives information on the S.F.U. graduate grades of
the end of the Summer 1992 semester; it excludes students who had not yet taken an S.F.U.
graduate course. Data were taken from the Registrar's data files and incorporated into and
processed within the Graduate Studies Database system.
The tremendous range in the grade distributions among departments may stem from two causes:
(1) differences in grading practices and (2) differences in the abilities of students. I believe that,
most likely, it is a mixture of these with the former a larger contributor than the latter. This
range is one of the reasons that I have moved away from interdepartmental comparisons of
CGPA in the ranking of applicants for S.F.U. graduate scholarships.
IV.
Special Arrangements
The Senate Graduate Studies Committee serves as the Graduate Program Committee of students
enrolled under Special Arrangements. I have given special attention to these students. With the
• goal of ensuring their satisfactory progress, I have brought all their supervisory committees into
compliance with Senate's regulations and require up-to-date progress reports as a condition of
registration. The response of students and supervisors has been excellent.
I am pleased to report that the defences of theses completed under Special Arrangements, which
I chair, have all been quite successful. Table II provides data on degree completion.
Historically, Special Arrangements have been a high risk area; students either succeed or fail
spectacularly. The number of students enrolled have remained roughly constant around 25.
Degree completion has been highly variable: 4 in 1992, 6 in 1991, 2 in 1990, 3 in 1989, 4 in
1988, 7 in 1987, 6 in 1986, 2 in
1985, 6
in 1984, 1 in 1983, 2 in 1982, and 4 in 1981. Some
other students have dropped out and others encountered health problems. By the steps outlined
above and by continued rigorous adherence to the criteria for entrance into Special
Arrangements, I hope to improve the success rate.
V. S.G.S.C. Motions
A summary, prepared by the Office of the Registrar, of the motions passed by the S.G.S.C. is
presented in Appendix B.
VI. The Future
I remain optimistic about the future of graduate studies at SFU. We have introduced a number
of new programs which are in the process of implementation. Several other exciting new

 
S.G.S.C. Report to Senate. Page 4
program initiatives are presently in the planning process; some of these have received approval
from the Senate Committee on Academic Planning approval to proceed with detailed planning.
Substantial growth in graduate programs is a component of the University's strategic plan. It
will be essential to ensure that sufficient resources are allocated to support this growth while
maintaining high quality.
The quality of our existing programs remains high and the quality of most of the thesis defences
which I have attended has been high. With rare exception, applicants recommended by
departments for entry into Ph.D. programs have been very strong. Through aggressive
recruiting of excellent applicants with the aid of entrance scholarships, rigorous enforcement of
the present requirements for satisfactory progress, improved financial aid and careful monitoring
of student supervision, it should be possible to improve further the quality of our graduate
programs, and to decrease degree completion times and withdrawal rates, thus making more
effective use of our resources.

student population, as well as retrospective data on
program completion. The information is derived from enrolment

information gathered and processed in this office. It is
I

largely complementary to the S.F.U. Fact Book prepared by the
of Analytical Studies. Minor differences in enrolment
figures exist between the two publications due to differences
in the data collection interval.

Each section is headed by a graphical summary. In some cases,
the summaries omit programs where the numbers reported are too
small to be significant; the tabular data are complete.
It is hoped that this Fact Book will be a useful source of
I
information
for the campus community. This office can provide
additional more specialized reports, if these are required.
