PS The Statement of Purpose is part of your Rackham online application. It is perhaps the single most important item in your application. Keep in mind that it will be reviewed by faculty in both social work and your social science discipline. Therefore, you need to help your readers understand how your interests are relevant to the professional and intellectual commitments of both social work and your social science. We also want to understand why the Joint Doctoral Program is more appropriate for you than a doctoral program in social work or a social science alone. Even if you do not have academic training and/or professional experiences in social work or your selected social science, your essay must demonstrate an understanding of the social science discipline and the social work profession. We recommend that you prepare this statement as a separate document and upload it into your application. This statement should not exceed five double-spaced typewritten pages, using a font no smaller than 10 points. It should give clear information on: The research questions or problems that interest you 1. Your interest in and preparation for doctoral studies in social work 2. Your interest in and preparation for doctoral studies in your preferred social science 3. Your interest in the joint PhD 4. Your career objectives The connection between your research interests and those of U-M faculty, both in social work and in your social science. Include a list of several faculty members in both social work and the social science discipline whose research interests overlap with yours. CV Applicants must submit a current curriculum vita or résumé, listing relevant employment and volunteer experience, academic honors, financial awards, research experience, publications, presentations, theses, other major papers, honor society and other memberships, and other relevant activities and experience. Fee Non-U.S. citizens, $90 RL Three letters of reference are required for a complete application. Where possible, at least two of the letters should be from university faculty or advisors who can assess your potential for doctoral studies in a research-oriented program. If you have been employed in social work or a related field in the past two years, at least one letter should be from a supervisor familiar with your work. Letters without the form are acceptable but should provide similar information. All letters of recommendation should be submitted using the online form found within the rackham application. If you submit more than three letters of recommendation, there is no guarantee all letters will be read. If additional letters are submitted, they should be in hard copy form and sent to: Doctoral Applications Room 3704 1080 South University Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1106 USA Transcript Please upload unofficial transcripts only from institutions where a degree or certificate was earned or is being earned to your online application.
