Cheapest Online Doctorate/PhD - thequietman - 10-31-2025

Hi guys, I am new to this forum, so be gentle please. Smile

I teach at a Thai university & have a MBA. I would like to get a small salary bump, for completing a doctorate.

I suppose an Asian institution would be best, but am open to suggestions. Price is everything - not prestige. As long as it is accredited in its country, I'm happy and so is my university.

Many thanks in advance for any and all suggestions. Have a great day.

Welcome to the forum, let me first start by asking what your budget is for the program, and what type of program are you interested in studying for your doctorate

Masters is in business But suppose education would be best for my current role. Regarding budget, the cheaper - the better.

Open University of Kenya has PhDs in both business and education for under $3,000. The programs are new, so I don't think they've had any graduates yet you could talk to. The university is accredited by the Kenyan government. I am hoping to do their postgrad diploma in learning design after I complete my current program.

Basically, I would take some time reviewing the graduate section of this board in addition to the WIKI link mentioned above. I've written a few threads on country specific options, such as India, Malaysia, Philippines, etc. Furthermore, it's best to provide more details asked for in the addendum and template, with much more specific answers and not vague answers, this will help others help you... https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-New-to-DegreeForum-How-this-Area-works
