PhD and Doctorate Degree Programs
=================================

In short: The doctorate degree is an academic degree of the highest
level. There are three types of doctorates: research,
terminal/professional, and honorary. The minimum time for completing a
PhD is usually three years from time of enrollment, although most
candidates take considerably longer. According to the U.S. Census
Bureau, Professionals with doctorates have annual incomes $37,265
higher than workers with bachelor's degrees alone. « Search for your
specific program interest at your specific location to find the
Doctorate degree program right for you.
If you want to attain the highest level of achievement possible in one
of many different academic fields, you'd have to earn a doctorate
degree. A PhD, or Doctor of Philosophy degree, is awarded by
university faculty to students who have made significant contributions
to a particular field. This significant contribution usually is a
large doctoral thesis or dissertation, which generally has to be
defended by the student in front of a faculty committee before the
student can earn the degree. There are mainly three types of
doctorates awarded from universities and colleges: research,
first-professional (U.S. only), and honorary.

Those who earn doctorate degrees generally use the title of "doctor"
in academic environments or in publication. The use of PhD as a
written suffix for anyone who has earned a doctorate degree is common
practice. The "Doctor of Philosophy" title is merely traditional, and
applies to most doctoral graduates, even if they are in a field not
related to philosophy.

PhD Requirements

To receive a doctorate in most fields, students have to prove that
they've earned a bachelor's degree, or a bachelor's and master's
degree. The requirements vary by field. As a rule of thumb, those
looking to become physicians, lawyers, dentists, or chiropractors
aren't generally required to hold masters degrees before working on
their doctorate. Other more academic fields will often require both
the bachelor and graduated degree.

How Long Does it Take?

At this level, the time it takes to complete a doctorate is generally
up to the students. Most doctoral students, however, take at least
three years to complete their studies. Some students spend up to eight
years chipping away at their degrees. Most college professors are
required to have a PhD, as well as most high level scientific
researchers. The degree requirements for medical and law students
looking to earn MDs or JDs (Juris Doctor, the most common law school
degree) varies by institution.
