Capitol Technology University PhD in Cyberpsychology

[NotJoeBiden]

It's an online program. You can either enroll in full-time hours or part-time hours. It doesn't change the research focus of the PhD. I attended CapTech for two semesters. I've also been in practitioner programs that aren't focused on research.

I will say that I wouldn't be surprised if CapTech has low standards for journals and doesn't follow what they publish on their website. They're also quite lenient in what they consider to be related transfer credits.

Would you be willing to share why you stopped?

The advisor/chair I was appointed was neither a psychologist nor psychiatrist; didn't have a doctorate in psychology; and didn't have a background in cyberpsychology, cyber investigations, or cybersecurity. She was also uncomfortable with my chosen topic of online spaces promoting violence against Black women because those online spaces mostly consisted of Black men. So, I completed my research at another university with a forensic psychiatrist as my chair. I hope to publish from that paper. 

Originally, another student and I were supposed to have a chair with a background in comparative psychology and animal behaviorism, which was appropriate for my alternative proposal of using technology to train service animals. However, he had competing obligations and could not take on more students.

Very cool research. A shame they couldnt pair you with an appropriate advisor. Are you still doing your doctorate online?
