Curriculum for Doctor of Philosophy
Note:
Owing to the nature of the discipline and the rapidly
changing nature of instructional technology (please refer to Review
Form A), the
Instructional Technology faculty expect to exercise great latitude in
determining
appropriate courses and experiences for each student. Indeed, other
than College
requirements, the formulaic expression of course and program
requirements that is
expressed in this document should be interpreted as a working outline
from which each
student's program of studies will be adapted.

NOTE
This recommended sequence was developed around the
desired order and
historical
availability of courses to be taken. Changes made in this general
scheme can result in difficulty obtaining specific courses when
desired. On the other hand,
great flexibility exists in the selection and placement of the cognate
and elective
courses.
