    Part time PhD Programs in Electrical Engineering

    While it is one of the newer subdivisions of engineering, electrical engineering has nevertheless become hugely prominent in the modern world. As electronics and digital devices proliferate in the population, electrical engineers are needed to maintain and develop them.

    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.

    Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
