Course Schedule
Ph.D. Program in Organization Development

The scheduling of classes (approximately 16 weekends per year) is designed to combine full-time study with continued full-time employment. Class sessions are held on designated weekends (Friday night, Saturday and Sunday) approximately every third weekend. The specific time period for completing the dissertations varies by topic and type of study. On average, cohort members are expected to complete their dissertation within a three-year period from the start of the program.
