Traditional Path

 

Students on the traditional path have some flexibility in scheduling courses and will work with the graduate advisor to design their degree path. 

Students on the traditional path are required to take two courses per semester along with an intersession elective. Students are required to take a second research class and complete a capstone project to consolidate their learning during the final two semesters of their program. Students will complete 35 hours in total for their program.
