NOTICE TO
ALL DOCTORAL CANDIDATES:
The IFS is
presently in the midst of changing all doctoral programs with more focus being
on the doctoral dissertation rather than on coursework. The doctoral candidate
should be able to demonstrate their expertise and knowledge in a chosen area via
their dissertation. As a result, little if any coursework is now being required
for a IFS doctorate degree. However, requirements for the dissertation have
become more in-depth and intensive. Those interested in pursuing a doctorate
degree with IFS can get a better idea of what the changes require by clicking on
the "Transpersonal Studies" program below and going to the PhD section for that
degree. All doctoral programs at IFS are now being modeled after the
Transpersonal Studies PHD program.
