1 Health Education Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Health Behavior & Health Education Degree Plan Checklist The purpose of this document is to provide a comprehensive list of all requirements to complete the PhD program in Health Behavior & Health Education (HBHE) at The University of Texas at Austin. Each PhD student will work with his/her supervising professor to develop a customized program of study based on his/her research interests. Please feel free to contact Dr. Alexandra Loukas, coordinator of the HBHE program with questions (alexandra.loukas@austin.utexas.edu). Application Process Application deadline: December 15 th (to be considered for funding) Rolling admission is accepted until June 1st, but the applicant is unlikely to receive financial support *Students may only begin the program in the fall semester Prerequisites: A master's degree or the equivalent from an accredited college/university Completion of a minimum of three hours of coursework from each of the following areas: psychology, human biological sciences, health education and/or health promotion, statistics and/or research methods The student will complete the following steps to confer a PhD in HBHE: 1. Complete the online application ( Use this link ( to check the status of your application. 1a. Submit test scores of Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and Test of English as Foreign Language (TOEFL), if an international student. 1b. Submit transcripts. 1c. Develop and submit supplemental materials (e.g.., statement of purpose, resume or curriculum vita, and three letters of recommendation). 1d. If you are an international student, you will also need to complete the Certification of Financial Responsibility Form I-20/DS-2019 ( ). 2. Contact Phillip Salazar (khegradinfo@austin.utexas.edu), our Graduate Coordinator, to confirm that your application is complete and under review. Your application will first be reviewed by the HBHE faculty and then by the graduate school before institutional and degree program acceptance can be secured Review the expertise of the HBHE faculty and contact faculty members who are aligned with your research interests ( It is recommended, but not required, that you schedule a personal interview. Note: Final acceptance and continuation in the program are contingent upon sponsorship by a member of the HBHE faculty who will serve as the student's adviser, as well as good standing in the department.
2 Establishment of the Program of Studies Upon admission, the HBHE faculty will review the student's prior coursework and research experience and, in conjunction with the student, establish a program of study including coursework within and outside of the department. Under the leadership of the student's adviser, the HBHE faculty will monitor the student's progress. Students are expected to complete the core course requirements during the first year and a half of study (see sample curriculum, Appendix A). By the end of the second year in the program, the Graduate Studies Committee will have approved the program of study. Program Requirements (based on an annual review) Review Criteria: Grade point of at least 3.0. Including a grade of B or higher in all coursework. Any grades lower than a B are subject to further review. At least one (1) abstract or proposal submitted to a professional conference Present research results at professional conferences Progress toward publishing research in peer-reviewed journals Advancement to Candidacy Comprehensive Examination and Candidacy Review At the end of the spring semester, students having completed their second year of coursework and having submitted a first-authored presentation at a professional conference will prepare to take a comprehensive exam requiring the student to discuss health theories and design a research study. The exam is conducted in a take home format. Students will develop a comprehensive review of literature on a specific topic and design a corresponding research study. At the close of the review, the Committee will inform the student of its decision: a) Advance to candidacy. This decision means that the Committee will recommend that the student be advanced to candidacy immediately. Currently the Graduate Studies Committee chair and Graduate Advisor finalize advancement to candidacy. The Graduate Coordinator will facilitate the preparation and submission of application for doctoral candidacy and will notify the student of the results. b) Advance to candidacy with conditions. This decision means that the HBHE faculty will recommend that the student be advanced to candidacy, but will require that the student to meet certain conditions. c) Continue in program without advancement. This decision prevents the student from advancing to candidacy until the student meets specified conditions. The imposition of conditions intends to help the student strengthen areas of concern to the faculty. Conditions may take several forms (e.g., additional course work, additional involvement in research projects, additional courses in other departments). In case of a recommendation to retake the written exam, the Committee will make specific suggestions to the student about how to strengthen areas of weakness. Graduate Studies Committee policy permits students one retake. d) Drop from program. This decision will carry the recommendation that the student be asked to leave the program. The student may request a degree audit, from the Graduate Coordinator, to determine if a second masters may be awarded for the completed coursework.
3 2. File the Application for Doctoral Candidacy by logging in to UT Direct using the following address: This will require the establishment of a dissertation committee. Once this paperwork is approved, the degree must be completed within two years. A review of progress, conducted by the Graduate Studies Committee, will determine if the student is permitted to have additional time to complete the dissertation. 3. Propose a dissertation study to the Doctoral Committee. In conjunction with the adviser, schedule a meeting of the committee to present the proposal. Please note that the committee must have the written proposal for at least 14 days prior to the meeting date. 5. Upon approval of the proposal, complete application for the Institutional Review Board for approval of the research study, if this has not already been completed as part of the pilot testing. Dissertation Steps to take to complete the dissertation process can be found at the graduate school website ( Please note the dates annually change. 1. Register for Dissertation (_99W) during your final semester. 2. Submit the online Doctoral Degree Candidate Form. The form can be completed and submitted online from ~January 14 th* (the first day of classes) until ~March 25 th* (the midpoint of the semester). After the midpoint, any student who fails to complete the online Doctoral Degree Candidate form must contact a degree evaluator in the Graduate School to request individual access. Students who do not submit a Doctoral Degree Candidate form by April 23 rd* will not be eligible to receive their degree in the spring. 3. Schedule your Defense/Final Oral Examination. Give your committee a copy of your dissertation at least two weeks before you plan to defend so each member can examine it. Then fill out the Request for Final Oral (.pdf) form. Secure signatures of your committee on this form indicating each of them agrees to attend the defense on the date shown, and submit the form to the Graduate Adviser in your department/program for his/her signature. 4.
