Consult with the faculty member that you would like to serve as the instructor for your individual instruction course to be sure they are in agreement with you regarding which course number you need, as well as why you need that particular course. You should also alert them to expect an email from dse@docusign.net.
Consult with your graduate coordinator if you have any further questions about which individual instruction course number is appropriate and/or what, if any, requirement it might fulfill for your program of work.
Fill out the DocuSign PowerForm
The Instructor Consent DocuSign PowerForm will require you to have the following information:
- Your name and email
- Name and email address of the faculty member you would like to serve as the instructor of record for the course
- Course number needed (a pull down menu including all possible ELP individual instruction course numbers is included in the power form)
Post-submission
Assuming the instructor approves your request (please note, it is their prerogative not to do so), your completed request will be routed to the ELP grad coordinator who will lift the restriction so you can add the course. Please allow up to 24 hours after your request is approved for this final step to be completed.
If your individual instruction faculty member (for example, a dissertation supervisor) separates from UT Austin, then you must request that another ELP GSC member faculty replace them as your instructor of record in the current/upcoming semester. For dissertation committees, you will need to maintain 3 GSC members on your committee. Please notify the Graduate Coordinator of the replacement.
