Distance Learning PhD Programs in Astronomy
Astronomy includes both the theory and observation of celestial objects in the sky. Studies may require physics courses and some programs may teach students how to use telescopes, star charts, and special computer software. A student interested in using creative thinking and problem-solving may enjoy studying this topic.
The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
Online or distance learning refers to the use of electronic media and information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. With online learning, one can access education at any time and from any location with an available internet connection.
