Doctoral Universities
Doctoral Universities are institutions of higher education that offer a wide range of graduate programs, including doctoral degrees. These universities are characterized by their strong emphasis on research and the production of new knowledge. They typically have a diverse array of academic disciplines and provide opportunities for students to engage in advanced study and research projects.
In the United States, Doctoral Universities are classified by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. This classification system categorizes universities based on their research activity, with Doctoral Universities being those that award a significant number of doctoral degrees each year.
