Description:

Each student in the Special Education Ph.D. program at the University of Oregon must complete the Competency Portfolio, which represents an individualized collection of the student’s research, scholarly writing, teaching, and service activities. The specific way each student satisfies each competency is developed by the student and their program committee (PC). In general, the specific nature of each competency area program task is based on a consideration of the student’s professional goals and objectives. Any significant deviations from the competency portfolio expectations must be made in writing and approved by the Special Education Doctoral Committee.
