    I am searching for the right Ph.D. program for me and I would appreciate any input. I have a MS in Computer Science and a resume covering over 20 years of successful software development and information security. I have many wishes for the right program, but primarily I want it to be mostly online and I want it to be genuinely technical. My reason for seeking the Ph.D. is to teach and seek opportunities in academia. Non-academic career advancement is a nice side-effect, but not really a serious consideration.

    What do you recommend? Programs that seem to focus on the business aspects of IT are not what I am after. I am not at all against the business parts of what I do for a living, in fact, I am in management, but I am still seeking a program where my MS in Computer Science is a requirement or at least a preference.

    Also, I have already applied at Nova Southeastern and I have a month or so to wait for a decision. I am looking for some good alternatives so I can pursue my goals regardless of my application at any one school.

    Thanks in advance for your ideas!!
