Take, for example, a working engineer in her 40swho is earning a six-figure salary, has a family (spouse, kids, dog, and mortgage) and is eager toadvance her knowledge and career. Because we offer online master’s education options, she canpop open her laptop and take graduate-level courses in the evening after the house is settled.Once that master’s degree is in hand and she finds herself hungry for the depth and research-intensive experience of doctoral education, though, what options does she have
