Professional Doctorates: Defining Characteristics
• Aimed at the “scholarly professional”- not the professional scholar• Workplace based students / part-time study• Part of a cohort with fellow professionals• Research conducted within student’s areas of expertise• High levels of initial support (typically through a “taught” element)• Programme should “unlock” students’ tacit professional knowledge• Use of experiential learning / reflective practice / action learning• Outputs will typically be applied research / action research• Patterns of assessment may differ from PhD
