Common Doctoral Degree Program Questions

Q. What is the curriculum for the Doctoral degree program?

A. The Ph.D. HT Degree program is built upon research-based study. Doctoral students design their curriculum in partnership with UHT Professors. Degree work involves required reading and written assignments, followed by preparation and submission of the Doctoral Dissertation proposal for review and acceptance. The Doctoral Dissertation is the final project of the Doctoral Degree requirements.

Q. Is there a set-schedule or time-limit for the Doctoral Degree Program?

A. The UHT Doctoral degree program is a self-paced study format. The student works through their studies, research and writing at their own pace. There is no set time-period or study-schedule for doctoral work. In general, students should strive to complete their degree work within 18-months. Those who are able to devote more time to their degree work may finish sooner. However, work should not be rushed - and students should expect to require a minimum of 9 - 12 months to successfully complete all doctoral program requirements, even when working at a steady pace.
