Letter from the Dean
Welcome,
Troy University provides a rich, welcoming environment for graduate study and we remain
committed to the progress and well-being of all our students. Each of our programs
of study has been designed to provide you with the highest educational experience
and meet you where you are; whether online, in the classroom or at one of our support
sites. I invite you to explore our graduate programs through the links found on this
page.
The staff of the Graduate School and the faculty within our individual programs welcome
your interest in Troy University! Throughout your studies, please feel free to reach out to me or the staff if you have any questions about policies, procedures, or thoughts on how the Graduate

Is getting a graduate degree worth it? While additional education opens new doors
to your professional success, choosing a graduate program is entirely dependent upon
your individual needs, goals, and resources. These needs are why we offer on campus
and online degrees, so that you can find the master’s, doctorate, or certificate program
that’s right for you. See if pursuing graduate school is the right choice for you,
what advantages it offers, and fully understand what a graduate education includes.
TROY has been providing graduate education to students since 1957. In the decades
since, the University increased the number of graduate and professional degree programs
it offers to more than 113 and has been consistent in its efforts to make earning
a graduate degree an undertaking that’s affordable, accessible and provides the highest-quality
education.
Class size in TROY’s Graduate School ranges from approximately 10 to 20 students,
facilitating the formation of deeper relationships between students — and between
students and faculty.
Many of our graduate programs offer internship opportunities to give students hands-on
learning experiences. Degree fields such as nursing, counseling, education, and social
work often require licensure or certification to enter the field. Due to our specialized
accreditations and degree requirements, students may be licensed and certified in
these areas without additional coursework. Requirements vary by state.
Graduate Programs Online
For more than 50 years, TROY has been recognized as a premier public university teaching
working adults and military students.
Because of the way TROY is structured — with multiple sites located within Alabama,
the southeast and even throughout the world — students have much-needed flexibility
to attend classes and access university-based services from anywhere.
To make earning a graduate degree more accessible, TROY provides students with the
option to take many classes online or a combination of in-person and online instruction.
Students taking programs online participate in online discussions, take online assessments
and have valuable opportunities to collaborate virtually.
Another way TROY makes the process of earning a graduate degree more flexible is by
offering Fast Track graduate degree programs that require 30 to 33 semester hours and can be completed within a year.
