Candidacy Examination
The Candidacy Examination represents a “Milestone” within the program. All Doctoral students are required to successfully complete program specialization-specific Candidacy Examinations within the first two years of being admitted into the graduate program. The Candidacy Examination in Kinesiology consists of both written and oral components.
Thesis and Public Lecture
Every candidate for the Doctoral degree must complete a thesis. The thesis must indicate in what respects the investigation has increased knowledge of the subject. A candidate may not submit a thesis that has been previously accepted for a degree, but may, with the permission of the Graduate Program, incorporate material included in a previous thesis.
Doctoral candidates must present a Public Lecture on their thesis research. The Public Lecture allows the candidate to present his/her research projects to a 澳门六合彩开奖预测 community of scholars in an open forum.
