Do the EvMM course requirements add significantly to my course load?
In most cases, no. A doctoral degree at Clarkson requires 90 semester credit hours past the baccalaureate, within which formal course minimums are typically 30-45 credits. There are no maximum course credit limits; the balance of the credits are either for seminar, for which an EvMM requirement exists, or research. All doctoral programs at Clarkson require out-of-department courses to be taken — the EvMM core will, in most cases, count for these elective requirements. Most masters degrees at Clarkson require 30 semester hours, 18-24 of which are courses, but even here most programs have allowances for elective courses. In some instances it may be necessary for a masters student to take one additional course to satisfy all requirements.
