The doctoral program is designed to prepare scholars, teachers, and
leaders for academia and industry in contemporary and emerging
engineering fields. Its primary component is independent, directed
research leading towards a dissertation. The Ph.D. degree can be
achieved with a concentration in any of the engineering programs offered
in the College of Engineering. The program is designed to encourage
intellectual depth within the area or discipline of study while also
providing enough flexibility to allow for breadth across disciplinary
lines when useful for multi-disciplinary research topics. The Villanova
University Engineering Ph.D. program is one of the few programs in the
country that will allow the degree to be pursued on a part-time basis by
working professionals, with many of the relevant courses available
through our state of the art on-line Distance Education program. |
