Part time PhD Programs in Big Data
To study big data, a student must understand math and computer science. This field of study uses extremely advanced software and techniques for understanding very large and complex data sets. Careers in big data include international development, media data mining and simulation.
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.
