Can I transfer my Masters Coursework or Thesis to count toward the PSU I/O doctoral degree?
Students who completed a Masters program that did not require an empirical research thesis will be required to complete the equivalent of a thesis research project at Portland State University. Students who complete a Masters degree in another area of psychology or in an area outside of psychology still have to complete our required course sequences, unless they can show that they completed sufficiently similar course work in their prior program. Although the department will help students with general questions about these issues, we do not conduct formal/binding reviews of course credit issues until after students are formally admitted to the program.
