Policy Committees

One of the most effective ways graduate students can contribute to the University of South Florida and influence policy making is through participation on university-wide councils and committees. The core of self-governance at the University of South Florida is comprised of these councils and committees. The committees and councils are an integral part of university administration. The GPSC encourages you to serve on one of these committees or councils.

A list and descriptions of these councils and committees may be obtained by clicking on the following link: http://www.sa.usf.edu/main/groups.asp
