What does a Professional Doctorate encompass?

A noteworthy variance in the presentation of a professional doctorate is that there is no necessity for increased subject-specific training as one would already be a subject matter expert with years of experience.

ACT’s professional Doctorate comprises the following stages:

• Complete the Point Based Application form to check your eligibility
• Coursework 1 – Steps in Research Design (Reading materials) along with 2 mandatory webinars – 30 ECTS
• Coursework 2 – Understanding Education as a Discipline* (mandatory webinar) – 30 ECTS
• Complete a Research Paper of 15,000 words – 90 ECTS
• A live online defense in front of a panel – 30 ECTS

*Through the course work, one will become familiar with the theoretical problems relevant to their professional field and reflect on how they can integrate these into their research project.
