PSY 901 - Doctoral Dissertation I

0
Successful completion of the Doctoral Clinical Qualifying Examination. The Doctoral Dissertation provides an opportunity for students to engage in scholarship on an issue or problem that is psychological in content and professionally relevant. Students must begin registering for Doctoral Dissertation within three consecutive terms after approval of their dissertation proposal or in any term in which they are actively working on their dissertation with their committee members. Once students register for Doctoral Dissertation, they must continue registering for three consecutive terms. Students who have failed to complete their dissertation at that time are required to register for Doctoral Dissertation Continuation (PSY 904) until they are approved for the Doctoral Dissertation Oral Defense. Students receive a grade of CR (credit) for any term in which they are making satisfactory progress on their dissertation and a grade of NC (no credit) when they are failing to complete the project in a timely manner. Any student who has received three consecutive grades of NC for either Doctoral Dissertation Proposal or Doctoral Dissertation will be automatically referred to the Student Comprehensive Evaluation Committee for review. When a student satisfactorily completes the dissertation proposal or dissertation, a grade of CR will be issued, and all prior grades of NC will be changed to CR.

Prerequisites: PSY 896, PSY 897.
