Abstract: We examined a select group of R1 and R2 Doctor of Philosophy programs in education, focusing on core courses, research courses, dissertation structures, required credits, program structures, and experiential learning opportunities. A comparative analysis of ten institutions revealed commonalities in dissertation credit requirements but diverges in credit structuring, with R2 institutions offering more structured dissertation courses. R1 institutions emphasized core research courses, while R2 institutions provided increased flexibility through elective options. Despite the recognized benefits of enhancing research self-efficacy and skills, the implementation of structured experiential learning opportunities was inconsistent across programs. This study underscores the need for further research into how program structures influence long-term outcomes, such as publication success and career advancement.
