Thinking about Doctorate
#4
(11-21-2024, 10:21 PM)freeloader Wrote: In what field do you want to do your doctorate?  

What are you wanting to do with your doctorate (teach, research, personal fulfillment, etc)?

Are you specifically wanting a PhD, or would an EdD, DHA, DrPH, DBA, or other degree serve your purposes?

If interested in a doctor of public health, Georgia Southern’s degree is likely the cheapest available online.

Your ability to be admitted to a doctoral program with your current credentials is going to be highly dependent on the program.

I'm wanting to work Community Health/non-profits etc.   
I want to be able to hold a higher position when I enter the work force and personal fulfillment is up there. 
PhD would be preferred but flexible enough to know that anything I get beyond my Master will be personally just as good. 
You mentioned EdD would it matter that I am not a teacher?  Working at a college would be fantastic too! 
I'm very open to anything at could lead me down a better path for employability.
