Ph.D. Minor in Law

The School of Law offers a Ph.D. minor for students from other fields, which requires completion of 13-16 credit hours of course work. There are two required courses: a basic methodological course, such as contracts, torts, property, constitutional law, criminal law, or civil procedure; and either a research seminar (2 credits) or independent research (2 credits). Other courses to be taken will depend on the student's interests and needs and shall be recommended by the assigned faculty advisor from the School of Law and approved by the student's Ph.D. advisory committee and the appropriate chairperson or the dean of the student's school. Examinations are required for individual courses, but none is required for the minor itself.

The minor chairperson in the School of Law is Assistant Dean Leonard Fromm, Room 024, (812) 855-5361.
