The educational technology Ph.D. program focuses on the design, development and evaluation of instructional systems and on educational technology applications to support learning. The doctoral program emphasizes research using educational technology in applied settings and prepares students for a variety of professional positions. Graduates are typically employed as university faculty, educational technologists in universities, community colleges and schools, or as training managers in corporate settings.
Arts, media and engineering (AME) is a concentration in the educational technology Ph.D. The AME concentration provides graduate students with:
- Hands-on investigation of current issues in digital media research and development.
- Lead roles in collaborative, interdisciplinary development of novel experiential media systems for education.
- The opportunity for training that combines solid knowledge in their discipline with interdisciplinary knowledge in digital media.
- Participation in high-end interdisciplinary media research.

84 credit hours, a written comprehensive exam, a prospectus and a dissertation
A minimum of 84 credit hours beyond the bachelor's degree is required. At least 54 of these hours must be taken at Arizona State University after admission to the Ph.D. program. The following course work is required for all students in the educational technology doctoral program: One year full-time in residency, a research publication and a written comprehensive examination are required. The concentration assumes the student enters with a master's degree in educational technology or a related field; if the student's master's degree is not in educational technology, the advisor will work with the student to identify course deficiencies. The AME concentration requires that about one third of the course credit be taken from AME. Furthermore the AME concentration requires that about half of the research/dissertation credit hours are also taken from AME. Research and dissertation credits for all AME concentration students will be related to work on interdisciplinary experiential media projects from a common research agenda.
