The Ph.D., or Doctor of Philosophy, is arguably the most prestigious degree in existence. The average amount
of time required to earn a Ph.D. is five years, but the degree's financial payoff is huge. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, professionals with
doctorates earn approximately $37,265 more each year than workers with bachelor's degrees.
The doctoral degree is the highest academic credential
it is possible to earn. Whether it's a research Ph.D. (DPhil to the Brits), a D.A. (Doctor of Arts), or some other variant, the doctorate degree typically requires
four to six years of additional study beyond the master's level. To get a doctoral degree the graduate student must complete a course of study, do original research
and write a publishable thesis or dissertation. Not surprisingly, only one in 100 Americans call themselves "doctor." Consequently, a doctorate commands respect. |
