We offer programs in graduate study that:
- emphasize the development of research and teaching excellence
- establish collegial partnerships between students and faculty
- develop cross-fertilization of ideas between specializations in the context of a rigorous, but flexible, training program
Program areas are small enough to offer individual attention to each graduate student yet large enough to provide a broadly-based foundation for research and scholarship.
Graduate students quickly become involved in the department's diverse research activities, teaching opportunities, applied practica and internships, and governance processes.
