The Doctor of Philosophy
Although advanced course work is an integral part of the doctoral candidate's program, no specific number of courses is set for attainment of the degree.
The real basis for developing an acceptable program is to demonstrate mastery of a selected field and the ability to conduct independent research in the field.
You become a candidate for the PhD degree AFTER the following requirements are completed in this order:
- Approval of your Petition to Begin Study in the PhD program
- Passing the Qualifying (preliminary) Exam – written and oral portions
- Provide proof of English proficiency
- Approval of the Application for Candidacy by the Graduate School
