Overview
Liberty University ’s Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Applied Apologetics (Online) is made up of mostly 8-week courses with no required in-person intensives, so you can further your education while remaining committed to your job, family, community, and church.
Unlike many doctoral programs, this Ph.D. can be completed in as little as 3 years – meaning you can save time and money by partnering with us for your terminal degree. In addition, Liberty University is regionally accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). Earning your online doctoral apologetics degree from a school with this kind of recognition can help set you apart as a Christian leader.
This degree program offers you the chance to dive into biblical scholarship and affords you the opportunity to conduct in-depth research into the rich history of applied apologetics. You can also offer your own unique insight into academia by completing a dissertation. When you choose Liberty for your doctoral degree in apologetics, you don’t just choose a school – you choose an institution of higher education that is committed to your success.
