国际学生入学条件
International applicants must provide documentation showing they have earned the equivalent of a 4-year bachelor's degree from the United States to be eligible for admission consideration. Documentation requirements are outlined below.
Original transcripts/marksheets bearing an official stamp must be submitted to the Graduate School. Copied, faxed, or scanned transcripts are considered unofficial.
A separate statement confirming degree conferral (degree statement) bearing an official stamp is also required.
The admissions committee considers these indicators when making admission decisions:
Graduate degree (minimum of a master's) in a health-related field
Transcripts
Professional resume/CV – make sure to include professional experience, presentations and publications.
Admissions Essay - In approximately two single-spaced pages, explain why you are applying to this program. When writing this essay, consider these questions: What life experiences led to your decision to apply and what attracted you to this program? What are your research interests and career goals? How will this program help you pursue those research interests and career goals?
GPA (minimum of 3.25 on previous graduate work)

If the admissions committee feels the student is a good candidate for the program, a faculty member from the committee will be in contact for an interview.
Transcripts and degree statements must be in the original language of the international institution as well as in English. Applicants submitting an approved transcript evaluation (see below) are not required to submit English translations.
If you only have one set of original documents, please submit unofficial copies for review purposes. If admitted, original documents can be submitted to the Graduate School when you arrive in Birmingham. We will verify their authenticity in person and make copies for our records which will allow you to keep the original documents.
If you will be enrolling in an online only program and will not be on campus, please send the original documents along with a self-addressed and stamped envelope so we can return them.
Applicants who have not yet finished their degree should present a transcript showing they have earned a minimum of 91 complete semester hours or six (6) completed semesters.

课程简介
The Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) program in Early Childhood Education at the University of Alabama at Birmingham allows the doctoral student to have a tailored curriculum with enough flexibility to meet the needs of individual candidates while developing a strong developmental foundation in early childhood. The program is one of only a handful in the country providing a Ph.D. in ECE and not a more generic degree with an emphasis or specialty in early childhood. In contrast to a generic approach to training, candidates immerse themselves in doctoral-level experiences specially designed to focus on early childhood research, teaching, and service. The program offers doctoral-level early childhood seminars, internships, courses, and experiences. Candidates can specialize in one of five areas (Piagetian Theory, early childhood literacy, early childhood curriculum, diversity, EBD, or early intervention/young children at risk). Preparation focuses on the ability to research and teach at the university level successfully.
