Program Requirements >> Coursework
Coursework should conform to the following guidelines (approval pending). Note that there are three general levels of requirements: Core Courses (courses required of all students), Selective Courses (courses from which students choose areas of specialization within MQM), and Cognate Courses (courses that constitute an area of specialization outside of MQM). In addition to these courses, students are expected to participate in the MQM seminar and to satisfy the College of Education breadth requirements.

Measurement majors take a minimum of 9 hours of coursework in an area outside of MQM that constitutes a content specialization. Courses typically come from psychology, statistics, or other departments in the College of Education.
Seminar: All students should also attend the MQM student/faculty seminars that are scheduled twice per month.
