PhD in Counselor Education & Supervision: Overview

Welcome to the PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision (CES) page. Here you will find resources to assist you with completing the dissertation as a requirement for completing your Ph.D.

The capstone experience of the doctoral journey is the dissertation. Students are afforded an opportunity to develop their research agenda throughout their coursework, residency, and field experiences. Ultimately, each student works with a three-person dissertation committee. Students choose the chair and member of this committee, while the university appoints the remaining member.

The dissertation is a scholarly document intended to demonstrate the research competence of the author and to produce greater understanding of cultural, social, psychological, or physical phenomena. It is written in the formal language and style of its discipline or field of study, and it results from a comprehensive, logical, and ethical investigation. It will include five chapters:

• Chapter 1—The research problem
• Chapter 2—Literature review
• Chapter 3—Research method(s)
• Chapter 4—Findings
• Chapter 5—Summary, conclusions, and implications

Below, we’ve included a selection of education-related research projects to help refine your thinking. These are actual dissertations and theses, written as part of Master’s and PhD-level programs, so they can provide some useful insight as to what a research topic looks like in practice.

Ed.D. Dissertations of Practice

As our program is tailored to the needs of working professionals, the culminating research project of the doctoral studies is the dissertation of practice. The dissertation of practice demonstrates the scholarly practitioner's ability to examine problems found within the practice through scholarly inquiry (i.e., a quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods research project or a program evaluation project).

The topic for the dissertation of practice originates from a real-world issue or problem that is then explored, researched and analyzed. The document is designed to include the development of a publishable paper which can be utilized to further the scholarly knowledge of the field.

Successful defense of the dissertation of practice proposal serves as a candidacy examination. The defense must be completed within two semesters of completion of coursework.

Dissertation requirements can be found in the Graduate Catalog .

Dissertation Committees and Support

A faculty member, in alignment with their research expertise and interest, is designated as your dissertation chair. Two additional committee members of your choosing will guide and support you through the dissertation process.

Faculty are committed to supporting you in making significant progress toward the dissertation each term. You will submit reports of progress at least twice a semester to their dissertation chair to ensure they are making progress toward degree completion. Dissertation chairs provide feedback and individual support throughout the semester.

Commitment and Timeline

Our students complete the dissertation within 2-5 semester terms. Students’ progress depends on their topic, research design, and ability to dedicate time toward their dissertation research.

Required Hours

Minimally, twelve credits of dissertation hours (HESA 799) need to be taken. Once you complete your coursework and start dissertation hours, you will remain continuously enrolled and take a minimum of 3 credit hours of dissertation hours per semester.

Example Timeline

Dissertation Proposal

On average is 25-30 pages in length, excluding cover page, references and appendix. The proposal contains the following sections:

• Introduction
• Background of the topic
• Literature review (approximately 10 pages)
• Methodology and methods to be used in the study (approximately 10 pages)
• Significance of the research

Once the proposal is written, you will provide an oral presentation to the committee which serves as the dissertation defense. Successful defense of the proposal serves as a candidacy examination.

Chairs of Doctoral Committees are specifically responsible for seeing that the student progresses in an expeditious manner towards completion of the degree. Chairs will assist students in organizing committee meetings, conducting original research, presenting the proposal, and organizing the dissertation defense. Eligible faculty are all tenured faculty (Professor/Associate Professor), as well as Assistant Professors who have been reappointed for their second term. Each appointed Committee Member will have both voice and vote on all relevant matters pertaining to a doctoral student’s progress towards the degree.
