From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Awarded in UK?

As far as I can work out the DA is purely an honourary degree given to hob-nobs and the like?

The honorary DA is but one type. Many schools throughout the world offer the DA as an earned research doctorate and an alternative to the PhD. See also: http://www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ous/international/usnei/us/edlite-research-doctorate.html 69.123.247.202 01:37, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
