Commitment

Earning a doctorate is different than any other degree. Our doctoral students are expected to read deeply, engage in research, and communicate their scholarship through academic publication. Most of this work is done outside of course hours.

The successful completion of a doctoral program requires academic talent, strong analysis skills, and writing competence as well as the investment of a great deal of time and effort. These attributes are developed through thought, reflection, and diligence and under the mentorship of faculty.
