The recommended minimum course sequence is shown below. Course sequencing may not work perfectly, so some students may end up taking major courses, minor courses or methods courses at different times, including the summers. The "normal" course load for PhD students is three three-hour courses for a total of nine hours per semester. A four course load is also permitted, but students may only take more than four courses (12 hours) with permission.
The following sequence assumes a standard load of three courses, plus a one-hour seminar. Since the assumed load is three courses (plus one hour), it will be possible for students to take one additional course in any semester (with permission) to aid in scheduling. Note that MGMT 9010 may not be offered every year, so that in some cases students may take it in the spring of their first year.
