The Journey of a Thousand Steps...

This blog is intended to document the journey of a retired Air Force officer and his quest for a doctoral degree.  I completed an MS degree in telecommunications in 2002, and joined a college faculty in 2005.  Completing a terminal degree in Computer Science to enhance my academic career has been a goal for many years.  As part of my Futuring and Innovation course, I'm creating this blog to document my search for a program as well as my thoughts on the process as I travel through it.  There are a lot of options for doctoral level programs in the information systems world.  My criteria were institutional quality, accessibility (I travel extensively) and program focus.  I've chosen Colorado Technical University, and so far I'm delighted with my selection.  Having only completed one term, I don't have extensive experience to share, but so far I'm very impressed with the level of support I've received from the staff and the faculty members have been highly experienced and helpful.
