Coursework Not BAd, Dissertation a Travesty
I have recently completed all the course requirements of the EdD degree in the ITDE department. I have been working dilligently for the past three years on the dissertation part of the degree. The first three years I had a dissertation advisor who was a boob and did not know what was expected by the dissertation committee. I sent in three dissertation concept papers and got them all turned down. I wasted my time. I had my dissertation advisor changed, the new one is extremely helpful and available. NOW, after three years of killing myself I am burnt out.
Anyway, the school should keep a better track on the students and who the advisors are. The dissertation should be one the STUDENT is interested in, but NO, it has to be of interest to the dissertation commitee members.
Also, After you complete the coursework in 2 to 3 years it is a $2450 a semester fee to keep in the program until you finish the degree.
Like I said, I am ABD - All But Dissertation. AND don't know what to do next, as the future of completing the dissertation looks bleak and unattainable.
I don't have much of a choice, if I plan to try and finish the dissertation. If I had another choice I would surely take it. I have spent about 70k so far on the EdD at NSU. It would be such a waste to not try and complete it. I wish I could find another school that would transfer my credits and grant me a degree without the dissertation requirement. I would jump on board. I know many other students at NSU that would too, as there are any in the same boat as I. Many...You would not believe how many. If you know of a school I will pass it on...
3000 characterss is NOT enough. I will add in the comments...
