DEGREE PROGRAMS - GRADUATE

All of the Dyson graduate programs offer a supportive learning environment where students are active participants in their own education. Faculty members, many of whom are working professionals in their fields, carefully balance the theoretical with the practical. The success of our graduates demonstrates the effectiveness of this educational philosophy. Dyson graduate students are well prepared for contemporary, professional roles in counseling, forensic science, environmental science, psychology, public administration, and publishing.

Graduate Study in Arts and Sciences

Completion of a program in a given discipline with a strong grade point average will generally satisfy the requirements for graduate study in that subject. Departments will give specific guidance in such matters. Ability to communicate in written and spoken English is particularly important. A reading knowledge of one or more foreign languages is often required for advanced degrees. Statistics and computer/information science are also increasingly important to the scholar in many areas. Advanced degrees include the master of arts (M.A.), the master of science (M.S.), the master of fine arts (M.F.A.), and the doctorate (Ph.D.).
