PhD Specialization Examinations

Students are also required to pass exams in their chosen specialization. Full-time students usually take these exams at the end of the second year; part-time students at the end of the third or fourth year. Faculty members associated with each specialization determine requirements and procedures. Students should inform the specialization faculty of their intention to take the exams at least six months in advance. Faculty in turn will inform students of exam requirements and procedures and provide any additional reading lists at least three months before the exams are administered.
