Since its founding in , the UCSD Philosophy Department has grown to become a nationally ranked department, offering excellent instruction and supervision at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
Faculty have a broad range of research interests, with special concentrations in the philosophy of science, ethics and political philosophy, history of philosophy, and epistemology and metaphysics. The department is strongly committed to interdisciplinary work in philosophy, which graduate students can pursue through joint doctoral studies in the Science Studies Program and in the Department of Cognitive Science.
The department has close ties to many other departments and programs on campus including History, Classical Studies, Psychology, Political Science, and the Division of Biological Sciences. Graduates of our Ph. Understanding, interpreting, and explaining the scientific enterprise demand a systematic integration of the perspectives developed within the history, sociology, and philosophy of science.

Program Info Area of Study Data Science Program Overview The doctoral program is structured as a total of 52 units in courses grouped into foundational, core, professional preparation and research experience areas as described below.
Successful completion of the program requires successful and timely completion of three examinations and completion of a doctoral dissertation. Out of the 52 units, 48 units or 12 courses must be taken for letter grade and at least 40 units must be graduate-level courses.
Group A courses are introductory level graduate courses in the foundational areas of data science. Group B are core graduate level courses with prerequisites from Group A courses. Group C are advanced, specialized and free-standing courses, often part of the required courses in the Data Science specialization of the Graduate Program in other departments.
In all three groups, required courses are indicated as such; they can not be substituted by other courses without exception approval from the graduate program committee. Group A: Preparatory Courses There are five important knowledge and skills necessary for understanding and advancing core data science. It is, therefore, important that all our entering students either have background preparation or have courses available in the program to ensure a successful completion of the stipulated doctoral degree program.
A student can receive credit towards the Ph. Students can take more than 6 courses from this group to satisfy letter grade course requirements except satisfactory completion of professional preparation teaching, survival skills and research seminar courses.
Students who satisfy all letter-grade course requirements are expected to enroll into individual research DSC in a section offered by the faculty advisor to meet residency requirements and maintain graduate student standing during the period of dissertation research. Group C: Professional Preparation and Elective Courses Group C courses aim to provide either practical experiences in chosen specialization areas, or advanced training for students preparing for doctoral programs.
Students can choose from the following elective or specialization tracks. Additional elective courses will be offered based on faculty interest and availability. Research Rotation Program Research rotations provide the opportunity for first-year PhD students to obtain research experience under the guidance of HDSI faculty members.
Through the rotations, students can identify a faculty member under whose supervision their dissertation research will be completed. A research rotation is a guided research experience lasting one quarter 10 weeks obtained by registering for DSC with an instructor. All Ph. A student may rotate twice under the same faculty member as long as they rotate with at least two faculty members.
The goal is to help the student identify and develop their research interests and to expose students to new methodological approaches or domain knowledge that may be outside the scope of their eventual thesis. Research rotations must be completed before the start of the second year with a signed commitment form from a faculty advisor.
Those who fail to identify a research advisor shall be advised to leave the doctoral program with an optional assessment for completion of a terminal MS-DS degree.
Preliminary Assessment Examination The preliminary assessment is an advisory examination. It consists of an oral examination in an area selected by the student with the goal to assess the student's preparation for the proposed area, including several relevant topics, and identify any courses that are required or recommended for the candidate based on knowledge shown and critical missing background revealed.
The preliminary examination must be completed before the start of the second year in the doctoral degree program. Research Qualifying Examination UQE A research qualifying examination UQE is conducted by the dissertation committee consisting of five or more members approved by the graduate division as per senate regulation D.
One senate faculty member must have a primary appointment in the department outside of HDSI. The goal of UQE is to assess the ability of the candidate to perform independent critical research as evidenced by a presentation and writing a technical report at the level of a peer-reviewed journal or conference publication.
The examination is taken after the student and his or her adviser have identified a topic for the dissertation and an initial demonstration of feasible progress has been made. The candidate is expected to describe his or her accomplishments to date as well as future work.
The research qualifying examination must be completed no later than fourth year or 12 quarters from the start of the degree program; the UQE is tantamount to the advancement to PhD candidacy exam.
Dissertation Defense Examination and Thesis requirements Students must successfully complete a final dissertation defense presentation and examination to the doctoral committee consisting of five or more members approved by the graduate division as per senate regulation D. A dissertation in the scope of Data Science is required of every candidate for the PhD degree.
The final form of the dissertation document must comply with published guidelines by the Graduate Division. Special Requirements: Professional Training and Communications All graduate students in the doctoral program are required to complete at least one quarter of experience in the classroom as teaching assistants regardless of their eventual career goals.
Effective communications and ability to explain deep technical subjects is considered a key measure of a well-rounded doctoral education. Thus, Ph. Three 3 letters of recommendation are required. Additional letters may be submitted. If you have already taken the test, you are still welcome to include your scores on your application. No more than 5 accepted; Online letters of recommendation Statement of Purpose Required 1 to 2 pages typed, single spaced 10 point font word limit.
