The Governance and Globalization specialization in the Ph.D. program for Planning, Governance, and Globalization (PGG-GG) integrates perspectives from social sciences and humanities to examine governance systems across societal and international contexts. The PGG-GG specialization creates a distinctive collaborative space where faculty mentors and doctoral candidates engage in close partnership. Candidates utilize interdisciplinary approaches to apply their professional backgrounds when investigating academic inquiries. Doctoral candidates must successfully complete at least 90 graduate-level credit hours along with a dissertation. Participants must satisfy both their chosen specialization requirements and the Graduate School's standards. This doctoral curriculum adopts an adaptable research-focused structure, mandating a concise set of core courses while providing two primary specializations, each with its own thematic concentrations.
