I'm doing a PhD right now.
but I'm not a graphic designer.
- I like this route.
More useful for becoming a teacher or if you're interested in research.Jaline - I mean, particularly if you're a designer. Otherwise, it's not necessarily. Build up the folio.Jaline
- I have a full time job as a design researcher and the PhD is part time...lowimpakt
- See, that makes sense.Jaline

Will you be able to prescribe me meds?

If you have nothing else to do, you can get money, and just like learning in general, then sure. Otherwise I don't see how PhD is particularly relevant in the design industry. I probably would've done one if I didn't decide to study some more web stuff.
- That being said, I would never say anything against a person who wanted to study more.Jaline

why do you feel you need a phd? masters even seems like overkill imo... a degree will get you in the door then your work must speak for itself.

Is there such a thing as a Phd is design? There's one in Art History.

Well, the program at that kid's school from the "Do you understand..." thread seems pretty solid.
