>Professional doctorates are taken fairly seriously in Australia.
>There is a regular biennial Professional Doctorates conference (most
>recent just before Xmas) and the Australian Research Council and
>other government bodies have put substantial funds into research
>aimed at gaining the maximum benfits from professional doctorates as
>an alternative to the PhD education program. I attended the last
>Australian Prof Doc conference and found the depth and breadth of
>analysis impressive. I suspect that the papers when published will
>be useful to those building professional doctorates in
>design-focused areas. At the conference was presented the findings
>of a major ARC funded research project into best practices and into
>gaining the maximum benefits from professional doctorates. The exec
>summary and full text of the research can be fouind at
>http://www.detya.gov.au/highered/eippubs/eip02_8/eip02_8.pdf The
>chapters on 'Doctoral education and Higher Education Policy ' and
>'Doctoral education and the Knowledge Economy' were particularly
>interesting. The Australian government is taking professional
>doctorates very seriously. This was shown by the attendance at the
>conference and significant contribution of of Dr. Robyn Batterham
>(Australian Chief Scientist and adviser to the governemnt on
>research funding distribution) and of and Dr Carol Nichol ( Chair of
>the Higher Education Review Group, DEST). Issues that I found
>interesting were:
>
>* The ways that the most sucessful forms of developing
>professional doctorates were strongly dependent on the type of
>professional institutions that are involved in defining professional
>practices
>* The importance of the UK DENG (Professional doctorate in
>Engineering associated with the Engineering Council) as a a
>'touchstone' exemplar of good practice for a wide range of
>discipline areas
>* The interest of the Australian government representatives in
>devising a doctoral level qualification that is not research based
>and which in many cases will replace the PhD in a wide variety of
>disciplines.
>
>I suspect its worth the design education community establishing and
>maintaining links with the broader professional doctorate
>communities.

>Best wishes from sunny Perth
