Doctor of Philosophy in Life Physics
Objectives
The required courses in the Life Physics Ph.D. program provide
the student with advanced instruction in various research
fields such as bioelectromagnetics, geocosmic phenomena,
Apparatus for Meridian Identification (AMI), meridian
research, bioenergy, and biofeedback as well as advanced
research methodology in quantitative or qualitative research.
Ph.D. candidates in Life Physics fulfill all remaining degree
requirements by taking doctoral level elective courses or
Master's level courses from other programs in consultation
with the program director.
Degree Requirements
Ninety (90) graduate quarter units beyond the Master's Degree
are required to complete the Doctor of Philosophy degree
program in Life Physics. Seventy (70) required graduate units
are earned by the completion of sixteen (16) courses including
the dissertation sequence (students must choose between
qualitative or quantitative research methods). The remainder
units are completed by taking electives courses in Life
Physics or other programs in consultation with the program
director.
Students entering this Ph.D. program with a Master's Degree in
a related field may be required to take prerequisite courses
with respect to the required academic background for this
program.
The student pursuing a Ph.D. in Life Physics is administered
an Advancement to Candidacy Examination after the successful
completion of all course work (except LP 896, 897, and the
dissertation sequence). The Advancement to Candidacy
examination is administered according to a written format and
covers all course work done during the Ph.D. program. Success
on this exam must be achieved prior to the student's
completion of LP 896.
Applicants to the Ph.D. program in Life Physics must hold a
Master's Degree in one of the disciplines mentioned for the
requirements of the M.A. Degree in Life Physics, and must
fulfill the Institute's general admission requirements.
