3.5 Course Syllabi, Textbooks, and Online Discussions
Course syllabi are made available online prior to the course in sufficient time for students to order textbooks and become acclimated to the course.
Doctoral students are expected to be on the cutting edge of knowledge. Therefore, current editions of multiple edition textbooks will normally be used in the research seminars.
Foundational research online discussions will typically start September 1, January 8, and May 1 for the fall, spring, and summer seminars respectively. Discussions may pause one week before the on-campus seminars and one week after the on-campus seminars.
