A Doctorate is an academic degree of the highestlevel.
Traditionally, the award of a doctorate implies recognition of the candidate as an equal by the university faculty under which he or she has studied.
Since the Ph.D. is the most widely known of the research doctorates among university professors in the United States, there isoften a perceived bias in favor of the Ph.D. over other doctoral degrees, though in certainfields outside of university teaching/research, an alternate to the Ph.D. may be preferred.

 MJA: Carlile & Sefton, Healthcare and the information age: implications for medical education

 THE FORUM ON TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION
And I’m terribly excited about how the new information technology can make being a family doctor really fun again; take it to a level that it used to be, but it’s different because of the new technology and to make health care as available and accessible to you as using your ATM or online banking.
But I think if you go to your own doctor’s office, except for the two or three who held up their hand, you’re going to see stacks of paper charts, pink post-it notes stuck to charts, actually, they’ll be on the floor, too, if you walk through.
Technologies, business to consumer, education, a whole variety of innovations in health care as in other sectors and, as this tsunami and the venture capital that formed it have started to recede, we’re beginning to see some beached organisms.

 Putting "Information" First in Information Technology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
However, in too many business situations today, "information" is taking a back seat to the "technology." As a result, IT professionals are missing the opportunity to truly improve outcomes for customers, both within their companies and those being served by the organization.
In this case, the availability of technology and information is not the obstacle—the inability or unwillingness to invest in technology is the problem.
By putting information first in information technology, all these advances are possible using today's tools, and many more will come to light with the advances that are inevitably just around the corner.
