Is the Th.D. a degree that future employers will recognize, particularly in the academy?
The Th.D. has a long history as the scholarly doctoral degree offered through a divinity school. The faculty at Duke Divinity School are committed to providing the same type of mentoring, counsel, and advocacy for the hiring of our Th.D. students as we do for students in the Ph.D. program. We believe that the Th.D. will be recognized broadly as a scholarly degree, parallel to our Ph.D. but with a different focus. Indeed we receive frequent inquiries from prospective employers interested specifically in our Th.D. candidates.
