7.10 Regulations
7.11 Unless specified otherwise in the program's founding documents,
or in subsequent actions by the Graduate Council, the same regulations
which apply to master's degree graduate work
will apply at the post-master's level Ed.S. and doctoral programs unless stipulated
in
Section 8.00 (Ph.D. Requirements) of this manual or the graduate catalog. Students
should consult the current graduate catalog or their graduate program offices
for specific information.
7.12 The Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) and the Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.) programs
are governed by separate policies in a variety of areas. Accordingly, this manual
does not necessarily apply to those programs.
7.13 Under the following conditions, students enrolled in the School of Medicine's
M.D. program can also pursue a master's degree:
A. Students must apply for admission to the School of Graduate Studies and meet
the requirements for degree status.
B. Upon acceptance to the graduate degree program, students must fill out a Program
of Study form that must be approved by their advisors, the master's program chair/director,
the School of Medicine Office of Student Affairs/Admissions, and the School of
Graduate Studies.
• The only medical course acceptable for graduate credit will be that survey
course (500 level) which pertains to the student's graduate degree program, e.g.,
Biochemistry for the master's degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
• Petitions for the acceptance of other medical courses or electives for
graduate credit are discouraged.
• The students’ advisors, the School of Medicine, and the School
of Graduate Studies
must approve any changes in the Program of Study.
C. In order to assure that the students are maintaining academic standards for
the graduate and M.D. programs, a quarterly review of their academic performances
will be carried out by the School of Medicine Office of Student Affairs/Admissions
and the School of Graduate Studies. |
