Allied Courses

Allied Courses (min: 15 hrs)


In the PhD program, 15 hours of coursework has to come from what is called "allied" courses, with twelve of the fifteen designated as a concentration. An Allied Course is any course deemed suitable for your program in consultation with your Program Advisor. Courses offered through several departments in the School of Education (e.g., those with EPSY, ETAP, ECPY, or EAPS prefixes) and those by departments outside the School of Education (e.g., those with AALN, AANT, APSY, or AISP prefixes) may be used to meet this requirement. Courses taken at other universities may also be applied to this area. Descriptions of the courses offered at SUNYA will be found in the Graduate Bulletin.

A minimum of 12 credit hours under Allied Courses must be taken in a given area of concentration (e.g., English as a Second Language, Child Growth and Development, Literature, Educational Administration). Choose a concentration with the advice of your Program Advisor. Note: most often, the concentration requirement is met through courses brought in from previous degrees, through advanced standing.
