The students, in consultation with the Thesis Advisor, must identify three readers who will evaluate the dissertation. At least two of the readers must hold ladder faculty positions at Yale. One of these readers must have a Primary Appointment in MCDB. One of the readers may be from outside of the Yale Community. However, no outside reader is required. The Registrar’s Office has developed a new online Notification of Reader’s Form (ONOR), which is available at www.yale.edu/dissertationreaders. The student should fill this form as soon as possible (at least a few days before the deadlines) and submit it to the DGS electronically.
