The Ph.D. program in Planning, Governance and Globalization (PGG) is one of two Ph.D. programs available in the School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA), the other being the Ph.D. in Public Administration. The Ph.D. in PGG attracts students with widely differing backgrounds and interests. In order to accommodate this diversity, curriculum requirements are defined in two tracks with several thematic areas.
The Planning, Governance and Globalization Student Association (PGGSA) represents PhD students in the PGG program in SPIA and acts as a coordination vehicle for academic and extra curricular activities of PGG students.
Each doctoral student must complete a minimum of 90 semester hours of graduate study and a dissertation. All students are required to fulfill the requirements for their track or specialization and those of the Graduate School. The curriculum of this doctoral program will follow a flexible research-based program by requiring a small core of courses and by offering two major tracks, as well as thematic areas under each track.
