1 Website: Doctoral Programs in Communication Sciences and Disorders The doctoral programs are designed for advanced scholars with interest in communication sciences and disorders. The doctoral programs consist of PhD programs in speech-language pathology and audiology, or communication sciences. In addition, an AuD degree or an optional, blended AuD/PhD program are available. Students may enroll in either the PhD program in speech-language pathology, audiology, or communication sciences or in the AuD degree program. Students enrolled in the PhD programs are required to take course work in a science core, which includes computer applications to the fields, physiology, acoustics and language science (speech-language pathology concentration), a support core taken across disciplines, a statistics core, and an area of concentration developed with the major professor. Students enrolled are required to take course work in a science core, which may include computer applications to the fields, physiology, acoustics, or language science (speech- language pathology concentration), a support core taken across disciplines, a statistics core, and an area of concentration developed with the Major Professor in consultation with the Program Committee. Students are involved in research from the outset, and are expected to conduct research leading to empirical, methodological, and/or theoretical advances in their field of study. Students enrolled in the AuD/PhD degree program are required to take course work in a science core, which includes computer applications to the fields, physiology and acoustic sciences, a statistics core, a clinical audiology core, and a clinical residency. All students are required to complete a dissertation project prior to being awarded the degree. Following completion of didactic and preliminary research requirements, students are expected to conduct research that will be included in their dissertation and defended publicly. Admission Requirements for the PhD: The Admissions Committee will make a holistic judgment of applicant qualifications. Admission to study at the doctoral level requires acceptance by the Graduate School and the department. The application for admission to the Graduate School and official transcripts from each college or university attended must be sent to the dean of the Graduate School. In addition, the following must be received by the Graduate School: Graduate Record Examination scores; three letters of recommendation, with at least two from previous faculty of previous colleges or universities attended; a sample of scholarly writing which may be a thesis, a published or unpublished reprint, or term paper; and a statement that summarizes in as much detail as possible the reasons for pursuing doctoral study and doctoral research objectives. A bachelor s, master s, or AuD degree is required for entrance into the doctoral programs. Acceptable performance on the Graduate Record Examination and a

2 minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5 on a 4.0 scale in graduate work are required. Postbaccalaureate entry into the joint AuD/PhD is offered.

Transfer Credit Credit will be accepted for transfer at the discretion of the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders and the Dean of the Graduate School. A maximum of 9 s.h. of doctoral credit (course work taken beyond the master s degree) may be applied toward the support and/or statistics cores. Credit will not be accepted in the science core or area of concentration. Doctoral Candidacy Requirements Following completion of most course work and prior to admission to candidacy for the PhD, students must pass a preliminary examination intended to test fundamental knowledge in both the major and support fields. The candidate will undergo written and oral examinations for mastery of the areas of concentration, the support core, statistical applications in the area of basic and applied research, and research design. Critical analysis and synthesis of all related academic, research, and clinical aspects of the field of preparation must be demonstrated. For the clinical PhD, the second gateway examination will constitute this preliminary examination. The student s program committee is responsible for the administration and evaluation of the preliminary examination. The recommendation of the committee is sent to the chairperson of the department who forwards to the dean of the Graduate School one of the following recommendations: The responses to the preliminary examination are satisfactory and the student is recommended to candidacy. Some responses to the preliminary examination are unsatisfactory and the student is to be re-examined at a specific time. Areas of deficiency to be rewritten and the dates of re-examination will be determined by the program committee. The responses to the examination are unsatisfactory and a full re-examination will be administered during the subsequent semester. Failure of the second examination results in termination of the program.

5 Following completion of most course work and prior to admission to candidacy for the PhD, students must pass a comprehensive examination intended to test fundamental knowledge in both the major and support fields. The candidate will undergo written and oral examinations. The student's Program Committee is responsible for the administration and evaluation of the comprehensive examination. The candidacy recommendation of the committee is sent to the Director of Doctoral Education who forwards it to the Dean of the Graduate School. Doctoral Dissertation After passing the preliminary examination, the candidate must initiate the development of an appropriate dissertation research project. The dissertation must reflect independent, scholarly research that will contribute significant new knowledge to the candidate s area of concentration. Prior to initiating the dissertation research, the candidate s program committee (composed of the major professor and at least three members of the graduate faculty) must approve a prospectus of the proposed dissertation containing the following: A review of the pertinent literature. A statement of the nature of the problem and the objectives of the proposed investigation. A complete methodology, based on preliminary pilot investigations, which include a description and number of subjects to be studied, a discussion of the dependent and independent variables that will be manipulated, and a detailed description of the experimental procedures to be employed, including all experimental instrumentation. A detailed outline and justification of the statistical analysis of the data that will be obtained. A copy of the approved Institutional Review Board Application. With the guidance and approval of the major professor, the candidate formally presents the prospectus to the faculty of the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at an open meeting. The program committee must agree that the research proposal is satisfactory, with only one dissenting vote allowed. It is the responsibility of the program committee to counsel the candidate in the research program, critique the dissertation, and conduct the final examination. Upon the satisfactory completion of all requirements, the committee and departmental chairperson will recommend to the dean of the Graduate School the award of the doctoral degree. The basic form of the dissertation manuscript will follow the East Carolina University manual of style. Please see the MANUAL OF BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR THESES AND DISSERTATIONS at Dissertation.cfm.
