Course Overview
This orientation course is the first step in the JIU doctoral program. Candidates will explore the challenges and opportunities of online learning, what’s expected of them as doctoral candidates, what they can expect from the JIU faculty, the structure of a typical JIU course, and the tools and resources available to support doctoral candidates.
There are no course projects due for this orientation. However, there are several graded assignments that must be completed and submitted to ensure that candidates are familiar with the doctoral program and tools before beginning their first course.
