A candidate for the Eng.Sc.D. degree in biomedical engineering must register for 12 points of doctoral research instruction. Registration may not be used to satisfy the minimum residence requirement for the degree.
Internship for Film Research Arts Students Only
A candidate for the Eng.Sc.D. degree in mechanical engineering must register for 12 points of doctoral research instruction. Registration in MECE E9800 may not be used to satisfy the minimum residence requirement for the degree.
In the term following the passing of comprehensive examinations, doctoral candidates must register for a total of 6 points of instruction. Supervision and consultation are provided by the faculty to doctoral candidates in the courses of their selection of the dissertation topic, carrying out the prescribed research, and writing the dissertation. Library privileges are included.
Interenship for MFA Writing Research Arts Students
This required course during the first year of the EdD curriculum is the second in a two-course series designed to provide the doctoral student with foundational skills and knowledge and an understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of rehabilitation research to efficiently progress through the doctoral studies and develop as a scholar. Following the first course that focused on personal and professional skills to become an independent investigator, this semester will focus on writing a research proposal. Proposal writing is an essential skill necessary for a successful research career. This course will focus on understanding the components of a research proposal and the review process. Fundamental skills include translating a research question or topic of interest into hypothesis-driven specific aims, developing a research strategy, choosing outcome measures, presenting preliminary data, and innovation and relevance to the field and community. Also important is developing a personal statement and summary of accomplishments. This biosketch is critical to affirming your qualification for the proposed work. The course fosters a culture to embrace the iterative process of writing a research proposal. It also encourages taking intellectual risks and embraces the peer-review approach as part of our collective and collaborative research skill development. Building on the literature review and research question in development as part of the first semester, this semester will create a full research proposal. Students will learn the elements of a research proposal with a specific focus on NIH and APTA formats. It is a practical class where, throughout the semester, students will write their proposal in an iterative process whilst providing and receiving feedback to and

Students will have the opportunity to learn about these methods through guided readings which include research papers that illustrate how these methods can be effectively used in different areas of business research (e.g., marketing, finance, management, etc.). The course will provide an opportunity for students to get hands-on experiences in using these methods on various example datasets through Jupyter notebooks that would serve as tutorials. The independent study involves bi-weekly meetings where students discuss the reading material and code tutorial. At the end of the term, students will be asked to complete a final project which includes using at least one of the covered methods to analyze a dataset of their own choosing. The course culminates with students giving a presentation on their research project.
This course is intended for PhD students who are engaged in relevant scholarly activities that are associated with dissertation research.
A candidate for the doctorate in biomedical engineering or applied biology may be required to register for this course in every term after the students course work has been completed and until the dissertation has been accepted.
