What can the EdD offer me?

The Bristol EdD is Britain’s first taught doctorate, which carries the same status as a PhD

The programme’s success in recruiting and retaining senior professionals with demanding jobs lies in the top quality of its teaching (through professors and lecturers who are leading figures in their specialist fields); and in its fully developed support structures for participants. On entry, you will be allocated an Academic Adviser and, at a later stage, a Dissertation Adviser.

The Doctorate in Education provides experienced professionals with an opportunity to pursue doctoral level studies via a programme which is relevant to their personal professional interests and needs. It carries the same status as a PhD and is designed for ambitious, mid-career education and training professionals whose work requires them to have a high level of research capability.
