Doctor of Philosophy: Online Option
The Online PhD option
offers the same high-quality curriculum and excellent faculty as the On-Campus
option. Although this option is nearly identical to
the on-campus format, there are minor differences. Students are admitted
to the online option as a cohort and must progress consistent with the scheduled
course offerings. Online courses are offered every two years and must be taken
in sequence. These courses are identical to those in the on-campus option
and usually are taught by the same faculty. However, they may be offered in
a different sequence.
Admission: Summer, odd years (2009, 2011, 2013)
Online: Program Structure and Course Progression
Courses will be offered based on a semester calendar beginning each May/June, January, and September. Courses will be offered in a sequence that will allow students to complete all required courses in two and one half years including the summer.
Students will also complete research practicum courses through guided experiences in their local area.
Online: Student Requirements
Students who commit to the online program are expected to take two courses
each semester including summers. All students are required to attend an intensive,
one-week, on-campus session held at the beginning of the program. They also
must attend an intensive on-campus, six-week session the summer in which they
complete course work.
