Section 7 - Professional Doctorates

Professional Doctorates are equivalent to PhDs in terms of the volume and level of work that has to be done to complete them. A Professional Doctorate aims to advance professional practice through a range of work related knowledge and competencies, of which research is only one aspect. It is assessed by various pieces of work, including a research project.

QMU offers two Professional Doctorates:

  • Professional Doctorate in Health Psychology
  • Professional Doctorate in Health and Social Sciences

The following resources are available for further information about Professional Doctorates:
