Programme overview

The program is designed to give general training at the graduate level in preparation for doctoral study or work in schools, government service, law, or the private sector; it is broadly concerned with skills development (written and oral) and advanced learning.

Campus: Storrs Campus.

Duration: 30 credits  |  Study mode: full-time  |  Location: Storrs, CT, United States
