PhD Degrees in General Studies

For the eclectic or noncommittal student, a general studies program can work wonders because it allows them to sample courses from several different majors. This academic smorgasbord can help illuminate areas of interest that students were not even aware they had.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
