LMU-DCOM maintains an open-door policy with regard to the students. All faculty, advisors, and administrators are available for advice and student support. The input and opinion of the student is important. As stated previously, there will be regularly scheduled meetings with the dissertation committee and faculty advisor. For additional meetings with faculty, appointments are recommended, but not required. Appointments should be scheduled via email to the faculty member or with the faculty’s administrative assistant. Any student who feels that they have a question or request that has not been addressed should see the Director of the Anatomical Education Ph.D. Program, or the Dean of Students in the Office of Admissions and Student Services.
