(FPC approved 3.22.22, updated 5.4.26)
Required Foundations Courses
- EDF 6475 – Qualitative Foundations of Educational Research (3 credits)
- EDF 6400* – Quantitative Foundations of Education Research Overview (3 credits)
- * EDF 6403 (6 credits) can also be taken to fulfill this requirement because EDF 6403 is equivalent to the combination of EDF 6400 and EDF 6402 in one 6 credit course to be taken in one semester. Doctoral students should note that many of the quantitative courses in REM require EDF 6403 as a prerequisite, and hence a student interested in continuing quantitative studies beyond EDF 6400 may benefit from completing EDF 6403 to fulfill the required foundations coursework.

EDF 6938 Course Options
The REM program sometimes offers specialized methods courses as Special Topics courses under EDF 6938. These courses can often count toward the COE policy on Minimum Research Requirements for Doctoral Students. To see if a particular offering can count, students should contact the REM Program Coordinator. The REM Program Coordinator will work with REM faculty on course approval.
Non-REM Courses*
- EME 6637 – Managing and Analyzing Multimodal Educational Data
- EME 6651 – Learning Analytics Concepts and Techniques
- EEX 6308 – Single Subject Research Design
- EEX 6347 – Meta-Analysis in Prevention and Intervention Science
* COE faculty offering a research methods course can propose the course to be considered by an FPC ad-hoc committee of three representatives (one from each School) in consultation with the Dean for approval and addition to the list of Non-REM methods courses. Begin the process by contacting the current FPC chair or School FPC representative.
