Part time PhD Programs in Technology Studies Automation

Students interested in engineering and working with high-tech equipment may want to study automation. Through a variety of classes, students can learn how to operate, fix and maintain automated equipment of electromechanical systems and industrial electronics.

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.
