Ed.D. or Ph.D.? Which is Right for Me?Voices Across Doctoral Programs

presented by the GRADUATE STUDENTS & NEW PROFESSIONALS COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE

THURSDAY, 16 OCTOBER 2025 | 3:30pm ET

Join us for a panel discussion featuring current EdD and PhD students who will share their personal experiences navigating the doctoral landscape, including how they determined which type of program was right for them. Our panelists will discuss their decision-making process in choosing between these two doctoral paths, offer insights about their program type, and provide guidance on recognizing when you’re ready to take the next step in your academic and professional journey. Whether you’re considering a practice-focused EdD or a research-intensive PhD, this panel discussion will encourage you to reflect on your own educational journey.
