Master's and Doctor's Degrees Clause Samples
The "Master's and Doctor's Degrees" clause defines the requirements and conditions related to the awarding of advanced academic degrees such as master's and doctoral degrees. It typically outlines the necessary qualifications, coursework, research, examinations, and any thesis or dissertation requirements that candidates must fulfill to be eligible for these degrees. For example, it may specify the minimum number of credits, the need for original research, or the process for submitting and defending a dissertation. The core function of this clause is to ensure that the standards for granting advanced degrees are clear, consistent, and transparent, thereby maintaining academic integrity and setting expectations for both students and faculty.
