    I think a Phd is useful if you're teaching or doing theoretical research on a specific subject (could be GD but then you'd have to be teaching Visual Arts or something).

    If people start using it as a promotional skill (which is not, because it's only valued inside universities) Phd will lose it's scientific value. Most universities throughout the world wouldn't accept you as a Phd student, I think.

    • You can get into Med school with an Arts degree, as long as you have select courses. I think it depends on the university.Jaline
    • Or Visual Arts History.Corvo2
    • You can? Well, then maybe the process is not the same in every country.Corvo2
    • Yup. My sister may go, and she's in Science. She told me that she knows people who have Arts degrees.Jaline
    • That's really weird. Why would an Arts degree be relevant in any field of Medical Sciences?Corvo2
    • I can only think of psychology/therapy - but that's a long call.Corvo2
    • A lot of people do that so their marks are higher when it comes time to enroll. But they don't have as much knowledge.Jaline
    • I see.Corvo2
    • But I guess you make up for it somehow once you get into Med School and start practicing.Jaline
    • Yes. I forgot about the Slice Tool in PS CS :P :FCorvo2
