The Ph.D. can be completed in a minimum of three years (nine semesters including residencies), but usually is completed in four to four and a half years. The maximum time allowed to complete the program is seven years. In addition, doctoral students must maintain continuous enrollment in the program during all academic years (i.e., three semesters, including residency, each calendar year). However, a student may request a leave of absence during the first five semesters of required courses. The student would then resume doctoral studies one year later at the start of the unfinished semester and would participate as a member of the new cohort. Each semester is approximately 13 weeks in length. Students may choose to receive the Certificate of Advanced Graduate Study mid-way through the Ph.D. program once they have successfully completed 30 semester hours of coursework. In some cases, attaining this post-graduate certificate assists students with job promotion and/or salary increase. Once students reach this level, they are encouraged to continue their studies to complete the Ph.D. in organizational leadership, which involves an additional 30 semester hours of coursework including comprehensive exams and a scholarly dissertation. | |||||||||||||||
