I traveled today to begin my 2nd year of the doctoral program -- this is the 2nd residency lasting 10 days. The residency is on the east coast this year (we were in Denver, CO last year) -- the class agreed to this change since my twins will be graduating from High School on Friday night and being on the east coast will allow me to get back for graduation.
The first course this week is statistics. We'll do 5 days (8 hours per day) finishing Stats on Friday afternoon. I'll return home for graduation Friday afternoon/evening then return here Saturday morning.
The 2nd five days is the first dissertation course. We are expected to have Chapters 1 and 2 of the dissertation complete by the end of the residency. I am going into this with pretty solid drafts of Chapters 1-3. We have 3 faculty mentors available to us during the dissertation course.
That's about it. Time to get unpacked and settled in now.
