As stated above European PhD are not typically the same as North American PhDs. I've never seen a respected program here that allows for part-time let alone while holding down a full-time job.
- chrisseaton 5y agoAmerican PhD students spend half of their time doing irrelevant things like taught classes and teaching work. They only do three years of actual research like everyone else.
- arpa 5y agoPhD is still a PhD in any continent. How academics organize their work is another question.
- sytelus 5y agoIt is actually not. Many 3 year PhD or part time ones are not recognized for immigration or jobs in USA.
- arpa 5y agoIt's immigration policy, not qualitative PhD difference.
- JustFinishedBSG 5y ago1. PhD in the USAs are 3 years too if you count like europeans do (we don't include the masters) 2. Industrial PhDs are not part time PhDs, it's a different thing.

- JustFinishedBSG 5y agoIndustrial PhDs are NOT part-time. They are full time, except instead of having to teach to get money you trade it for small industrial tasks.
