Prospectus

Catalog description

This course is designed to guide students in writing a preliminary prospectus for their dissertation or their Doctoral Research Project. This is the first step in the dissertation/doctoral research project course sequence and the topic must be approved by the college. In this course, students develop a prospectus that lays the foundation for their dissertation or applied doctoral research project, which will be original and contributory research by the doctoral candidate.
