Qualifying Examination

(Departmental requirement)

Preliminary Examination

Each student is required to pass a preliminary examination in order to become a candidate for the Ph.D. degree. This examination will be taken after most of the required course work has been completed, as determined by the graduate advisory committee, and upon submission of a dissertation research proposal. The preliminary examination will consist of written and oral parts. The written and oral portions will focus on the student's major area of specialization, courses taken, and the subject matter of the proposed research.

 

Dissertation and Final Examination

The final examination will be mainly a defense of the dissertation. All students are required to present a seminar on their dissertation research.

Students can choose whether the final copy of the dissertation is provided to the Graduate School in paper format or digital format.
