Besyt Distance Learning University

Who is the Best Distance Doctoral Degree University? Rate 1-5 with 5 the worst.

 

Okay. You go first.

I'm with Rich. Rating doctoral degree programs is like rating ice cream flavors. It depends on individual needs, preferences, learning style, expertise, field, future expectations/plans, etc.

I do like my ice cream to be high quality tho!! So I'd want it to come from a reputable, regionally-accredited ice cream provider (if US)!!! I don't like that melty, imitation stuff being dished out by the rest.

Mike's choices are all fine schools* but the question was about distance learning doctorates, and I don't believe any of those five would qualify.

* I was pleased to learn about the Institute of Paper Science, which was new to me, but clearly not to the world of academia; it has been around for more than 70 years, and is regionally accredited.

 

1) University of Dar Es Salaam
2) University of Kamchutka
3) University of Helsinki
4) University of Nairobi
5) University of Equador

 

I have been researching DL programs in Engineering Management and I believe that four of them do have ones, even if they do have a requirement for some on site time.

University Of Maryland has, I believe, a DL program in Reliabiltiy at the PhD level that is also mostly DL.

I could be wrong, but all of the ones listed have web sites that reference there programs as primarily DL.

Rather surprised to see the University of Phoenix listed here --- also, as an Alumnus of Liberty I believe they have a great school, but to be rated number 4 with their doctorates - aren't the Ed.D. and the D.Min the only distance doctorates they offer?
