Description
As part of the doctorate of education program, students will have three terms in which the milestones for Dissertation I, II, and III will need to be completed. Students are required to take a minimum of 12 dissertation credits until completion of the dissertation. This component of the program requires students to work independently on a research study or project, with weekly communication and in close collaboration with their dissertation chair and committee members. Requirements, product type, and details are outlined in the Dissertation Handbook. Successful completion will culminate in an oral defense of the product.
Note: There are three separate four credit courses that students must register for. These courses must be taken and completed in sequential order, completing one before registering and beginning the next course. If a student is receiving Title IV funding, they must be registered in one of these courses while receiving Title IV funds.
