    Part time PhD Programs in Science Studies

    A student who enters into the field of science studies may pursue many different careers. This discipline investigates varying aspects of science and its relation to society. Employment options include researcher, bioethics fellow, environmental advocate, or medical worker.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.

    Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
