Learning Goals:
- The Master's and Ph.D. degrees with thesis are designed to train students in the ability to independently conceive and carry out original research in an area of interest. Advanced degree graduates become qualified to pursue or to continue basic and applied research careers in academia, government, and industry
- Demonstrate understanding and thorough knowledge of the literature relevant to the area of study
- Define research objectives of significance and develop testable hypotheses related to those objectives
- Conduct research by appropriate means to test hypotheses
- Clearly and accurately communicate information (as for instance, in the publication of research findings or in classroom teaching)
- Understand how skills acquired by activities related to coursework, research, teaching, and scholarship facilitate the initial step toward a variety of lifetime career goals
- The Graduate Certificate learning goals are to provide graduates a mechanism for formal recognition of focused graduate study in a specialized area that is less comprehensive than required for a Master's degree
