NEW GRADUATE POLICY - effective winter 2018
Receiving an OU Master Degree during PhD Studies
Students who are in a PhD program may be granted an OU master degree during their doctoral studies if the following conditions are being met:
- they entered the doctoral program with a bachelor degree OR with a master degree in a different field of student (and NO graduate level credits have been transferred from this master towards the PhD program)1;
- have completed the master program degree requirements in terms of number of credits and course requirements; and
- all additional master program degree requirements (including non-course requirements) as defined by the academic program
——————————–
1Doctoral degree programs, which define the minimum credit hours as coursework beyond the baccalaureate, may permit students who have previously earned a master’s degree from Oakland University or another regionally accredited university, to reduce the credits required for the doctoral degree up to 32 credits. This policy does NOT pertain to post-master’s doctoral degree programs, where an earned master’s degree is required in advance of admission to the program. Students should refer to individual graduate program standards and requirements for details.
