- What are professional doctorates? - How do they change
professional knowledge and improve practice? - How can universities
organise doctoral programmes to facilitate professional learning
and development? - What is the most appropriate relationship
between professional and academic knowledge? This book examines the
relationship between advanced study on higher education courses and
professional practice. It explores contributions made by research
on practice to professional development. The editors document and
explain strategies that universities use: - in recruitment - aims
and purposes of the degree - selection of content and focus -
assessment procedures - curricular structures - pedagogy - teaching
strategies - conditions for learning - support for professionals -
relations with interested bodies and stakeholders. The book uses
in-depth case studies of three professional doctorates: the
doctorate in business administration (DBA), the engineering
doctorate (DEng) and the education doctorate (EdD). Examining
Professional Doctorates makes an important contribution to this
neglected area of research. Essential reading for policy makers in
higher education and anyone interested in professional doctoral
study.
