| Abstract: | Current American doctoral education does not serve the current needs of today's academic society. Many industries are becoming more involved in non-traditional education with regards to its flexibility, increased career navigation, and performance of function. Current demands show that academic doctoral degrees are serving as valid educational tools based that education can be taught in a wide variety of platforms and can also become adapted by many universities. With universities and colleges increasing the non-traditional enrollment, the job market tends to become much more competitive. There is a declining rate of tenure-track careers in the higher educational field. This low number of tenure-track careers is the reason why the higher education field and the status of enrollment towards non-traditional doctorates are increasing. The affects result in a continuously slow lag in steady employment for graduate students. The end result forces doctors and graduates to competitively apply against one another.
