Students must obtain permission from the Graduate Program Coordinator to take the examination. Students normally take this exam just before the start of their second year and are expected to have completed the exam by the start of their third  year. To be eligible to take the Ph.D. qualifying examination, the student must have a minimum grade point average of 3.0 (out of 4.0) in all the coursework for the Ph.D. The exam may be taken twice. If a student does not pass the qualifying exam after the second try, he/she will be dismissed from the program. To pass the exam, students need to pass all 3 parts. Students must take all 3 parts of the qualifying exam in their first attempt and must have completed all courses covered by the exam. It is strongly recommended that the student select a dissertation adviser by the completion of 18 credit hours of course work, and it is strongly recommended that the student works with the dissertation adviser to form a dissertation committee within two semesters of passing the Qualifying Examination.</li></ul><h3>Candidacy Examination</h3> 0 Total Credits <ul><li>The candidacy exam is administered by the student's dissertation advisory committee and will be tailored to the student's individual program to propose either a research‐ or project‐based dissertation. The candidacy exam involves a dissertation proposal presented in an open forum, followed by an oral defense conducted by the student's advisory committee. This committee will give a Pass/No Pass grade. In addition to the dissertation proposal, the advisory committee may incorporate other requirements for the exam. The student can attempt candidacy any time after passing the qualifying examination, after the student has begun dissertation research (STA7919, if necessary), but prior to the end of the second year following the qualifying examination. The candidacy examination can be taken no more than two times. If a student does not pass the candidacy exam after the second try, he/she will be removed from the program.

The program provides students with a foundation in rhetoric and writing studies so they can apply ethical and rhetorical approaches to research, compose and analyze multimodal texts, and explore pedagogical praxis in learning environments. Students in our program examine <em>how </em>writing functions (in digital, social, historical, and other environments) in the world to make meaning and implement change. Our program is offered both fully online and in person to prepare students to work as writing specialists within industry and/or nonprofit settings, teach in college environments, pursue Ph.D. studies, or meet other professional goals.</p><p>Upon completion of this program, students receive a Master of Arts in English. Their transcripts will show both Master of Arts in English and Rhetoric and Composition track.</p><p>Each student must complete at least 33 credit hours, including 9 credit hours of required courses, 21 credit hours of elective courses, and 3 hours of thesis or non-thesis hours. The program requires students to complete a thesis project approved by the graduate faculty that contributes to some aspect of rhetorical, writing, and/or literacy studies or to complete a capstone course.</p><p><strong>Total Credit Hours Required: 33 Credit Hours Minimum beyond the Bachelor's Degree</strong></p><p><a href=\"https://www.ucf.edu/online/degree/english-rhetoric-and-composition-ma/\">The Rhetoric and Composition MA may be completed fully online,</a> although not all elective options may be offered online. Newly admitted students choosing to complete this program exclusively via UCF online classes may enroll with a reduction in campus-based fees.
