Certificate Program Curriculum - September 2007 Entry

Module I: Introduction to Integral Studies - September 24 - December 14, 2007
This provides a basic introduction to the core concepts of Integral Theory, their interrelationships, and their potential applications, across a range of specific disciplines (e.g., business, criminology, ecology). In addition, students have opportunities to practice applying Integral Theory to aspects of their own personal and professional lives. Each of the five elements of the Integral model (Quadrants, Levels, Lines, States, and Types) will be explored in detail.

Module II: Advanced Integral Studies: January 28 - April 18, 2008
This twelve week online course provides an in-depth exploration of the core concepts of Integral Theory and their interrelationships. It also introduces more subtle aspects of the theory, and provides opportunities for more sophisticated and in depth applications. Students will expand and refine their capacity to make use of a new and unique lens for interpreting and integrating material and information from a wide range of traditional disciplines/areas of study. Students will also have opportunities to practice applying Integral Theory to aspects of their own disciplines/professions. A particular emphasis will be placed on Integral Methodological Pluralism and the relationship between epistemology, ontology, and methodology.

Module III: May 19 - August 8, 2008
This final online course provides an in-depth engagement with the application of Integral Theory to various fields. Students will draw on these applied case studies in developing their own detailed applications. Each student will apply the Integral model to her/his own field of work, discipline, particular job/mode of employment/career, or to a discipline/field/career area in which he/she is strongly interested in working. Particular emphasis will be placed on using the five elements of the Integral model (Quadrants, Levels, Lines, States, and Types).
