Smith; S. Venkataraman. Lecturer: T. C. Tapley. The Department of Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate offers graduate courses leading to the Master of Arts (M.A.) and the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in business admini- stration. Both degrees are offered with a concentration in either finance or real estate. In addition, a nonthesis M.A. is available in the real estate track which fulfills the educa- tional requirements of the Appraisal Institute for the MAI designation. Both finance and real estate are also available as concentrations within the MBA program. The Ph.D. program has a strong emphasis on scholarly research training. Admission requirements to the M.A. (thesis option) and Ph.D. programs include (a) minimum grade point average of 3.5 in the last two years of an undergraduate program and in any previous graduate-level work, (b) minimum GRE score of 1300 or GMAT score of 600 (both verbal and quantitative scores must exceed the sixtieth percentile), and (c) (for nonnative speakers of English) a minimum score of 550 on the TOEFL. Generally students will not be admitted to the Ph.D. program unless they have been offered financial assistance by the Univer- sity. The Department does not encourage application to the M.A. (thesis option) program, but unusual situations will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
