Invigorating and Rewarding online PhD and PsyD programs

In Kingston University's online PhD and PsyD programs, you will acquire advanced theoretical and practical knowledge and leadership skills that will position you as an expert in your field. After graduating, you may choose to pursue teaching, consulting, counseling, or leadership from an informed, strategic viewpoint.

Our accomplished faculty strive to create an engaging environment in which you explore concepts, share ideas, and make discoveries in your field of interest. Experienced advisors and faculty will mentor and guide you through the process of choosing and developing a dissertation topic based on your professional interests.

Offered in several cities across the country, residential colloquia are synchronized with your progress in the program—giving you face-to-face interaction with faculty, advisors, and peers, and offering valuable feedback on your research, comprehensive examination, and dissertation.
