Hampton University - withrown - 01-29-2022
For anyone who has been looking at potentially chasing an Ed.D, Hampton University has an executive PHD in Educational Management. This program is structured to be completed in 2 years!
I went ahead and applied last week so I'll have answers to my two biggest questions when admissions follows up with me.
1. Does the diploma say "Hampton U Online"?
2. Is the degree officially listed as a "EPHD"?
I found this program really attractive due to the 8-week long classes. I really have trouble with normal length courses. Also, having a degree from an HBCU would mean something to me.
currently application fee is waived (they give the code on the login screen)

Why would it an an Education Doctor of Philosophy which is what EPHD is when it's an Ed. D which is a Doctor of Education?

I mean listed as an "Executive PHD".
I currently work in Higher Ed and would potentially like to teach. Whether its warranted or not, colleges/universities look down on "executive" degrees. It would be different if I had a bunch of research out. Executive degrees are generally looked at as less rigorous.

Here's the program details if people are interested, the tuition is also listed: https://home.hamptonu.edu/online/education-management-ph-d/

Since "Hampton U Online" is accredited as part of Hampton University, I think the diploma and transcripts will say Hampton University.
The doctoral program approved by SACS is "Educational Management" without any mention of "Executive" or "Online".

Their online PhD in Business Administration requires 2 summer residencies. Each residency is 4 weeks long. YIKES! You have to do them in year 1 and year 2. The GMAT is required as well. Interesting that the PhD in Educational Management doesn't have either one of these requirements.

Came across this today, and after searching online, this was the first link.
Hampton University hit with breach of contract lawsuits
Not a great first impression; however, glad it was not about accreditation. Unfortunately, the next 5 links or so were also about lawsuits but who's counting?

Ask the school. But...
There is no reason the diploma or transcripts will say anything different unless you're graduating from a particular college separate from the main school.

It does? I see a PhD in Education Management, but nothing about it being an "executive" program. Good thing, too, because I've never heard of an "executive" PhD.
The post-nominal for such a program would be "PhD."
