Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction
Program Overview
The C&I Doctoral Program represents a cutting edge approach to graduate studies using research-driven approaches to address factors affecting education today.
The C&I Doctoral Program creates individually-planned programs of study to meet the unique experiences and professional goals of each student. The program addresses three broad areas: (1) the C&I Major; emphasizes curriculum studies, social theory, teaching and learning, diversity, and technology; (2) an Area of Specialization or Minor includes learning experiences in a content or integrated area (i.e., health, gender, diversity, technology, evaluation, research, foundations etc.); and (3) Research and Educational Foundations Core emphasizes the centrality of research commitment and competence—the ability (and eagerness) to conduct research as well as the ability to read, interpret and engage in professional discourse about research—to the doctoral program.
The Doctoral Program is an intensive and interdisciplinary experience designed for both full-time and part-time students. We offer courses in the evenings and provide access to online learning experiences.
