o *** Portfolio: Students complete an educational portfolio as part of the requirement of the
Ph.D. program. The portfolio is an organized, selective collection of documents designed to
facilitate a student's academic and professional development, and to provide a basis for
evaluation of degree progress. The portfolio represents the scope and depth of a student's
goals, plans, and accomplishments in coursework, independent study, research, internships,
and other advanced learning activities. The portfolio thus provides both a vehicle for self-
reflection and a comprehensive record of a doctoral student's experiences and ongoing
progress toward academic and professional goals. Contact the Ph.D. Program for additional
information.

o Suggested timeline for Portfolios Assessment:

o Portfolio I About 18 credits (1 year of full time course work)

o Portfolio II About 36 credits (2 years of full time course work)
