So I admittedly have not ever done a doctoral program, so I do not know the details like those of you who have...
But Morgan requires 36 hours of coursework...
"Completion of the Ph.D. program requires a student to have an MS degree and complete an additional 36 credit hours beyond the MS degree."
But they -Morgan- provide those classes. They could be saying "you only need 36 hours at Morgan"... but that is NOT what they are saying.
"Thirty-six (36) credit hours, total, are required for completion of the doctoral degree programs for all students who hold MS degrees.".
36 ... TOTAL.
The other doctorate they offer (online) is an Ed.D. in Community College Admin. It is 63-65 hours.
So, if by their definition you only need 36 hours post MS/MA...for the interdisciplinary programs what is the idea with needing "ABD" .
I feel like I am missing something here.
Can some of you with PhD experience please educate me ?
