Online PhD Degree Programs – Online PhD in Linguistics

Online PhD in Linguistics – Overview

An Online PhD in Linguistics or a EdD in Linguistics requires extensive library research work and some field work. A PhD in Linguistics is awarded usually solely on the basis of a dissertation and its successful defense. As in all PhD programs, however, students are trained to do high-level research and the process will take more than a year of training. Acquiring a PhD in Linguistics, should therefore take a minimum of 2 years. The process of acquiring the degree is supervised by a faculty staff and the proposed topic for dissertation has to be approved by the supervisor before the student can begin researching on it.

Branches – Online PhD in Linguistics

Online PhD in Linguistics University of UlsterThere are several branches in Linguistics and Distance PhD programs offer the student several choices for acquiring their degree. If a student wishes to teach upon graduation, he should take a PhD course and if he intends to work as a Linguist, an EdD degree would be a better choice. Standard prerequisites apply – even students applying through Distance PhD programs should have a Master’s degree or have a professional capacity that is equivalent to it. Some schools require students to pass a qualifying exam. A TOEFL is hardly a requirement in this case, because anyone studying Linguistics should know how to speak English already.

 Contacts  – Online PhD in Linguistics

It would be a tragedy to spend so much time on a degree from a source not recognized by the professional language community.
