can you get a phd in historry with a master's in education?

It depends.  Did you major in history as an undergraduate?  Have you worked as a history teacher?  Have you taken the GREs lately, and did you receive very high scores?  Will you get stellar letters of recommendation from the professors with whom you studied for your Master's degree?\n\nAnother factor is the area of history in which you plan to specialize.  If it's "history of education," for example, a Master's degree in education might actually be helpful.  \n\nMost Ph.D. programs in history will look for solid preparation in your field of specialization, evidence of your familiarity with current scholarship in that area, and some indication that you are capable of doing original work in that area.  If you can demonstrate all of the above in your application, you should have a shot at admission to a Ph.D. program.\n\nWithout knowing more about your background and your intended area of study, it's difficult to give you more information, but I hope this helped a bit.

Different masters programs have different requirements.  Most of them require certain number of hours at a certain level (e.g., 39 hours at or above the 600 level).  Then some require a thesis (dissertations are for PhD students), some require a portfolio, some require comprehensive exams.  Of course, other programs may have other requirements.

I don't agree that a person with a doctorate degree will always get a higher paying job ... it also depends on the person and how REALLY smart they are.  Book smart or school smart, doesn't really mean anything if you can't handle life situations, etc.  I wouldn't waste the extra years going for that, I think sticking with a Master's would be just fine.\n\nTrue story:  When I interviewed for my current job, my boss said she wouldn't have hired me if I had a PhD ... she was sick of people who were so proud of themselves because of something like that and didn't have the real brains to back it up!

I understand you are looking for an opportunity to study, but I must warn you that even if you do find an accredited online Ph.D. program (which I doubt you will), it will not be held in any esteem in academia, or in the working world.\n\nPh.D. study involves close and personal mentoring, hands-on research (oftentimes in a lab, or in the case of psychology, clinical experience), and sustained intellectual community.  No online program can offer these things, and therefore accredited programs do not even attempt to provide Ph.D. level study online.\n\nI urge you to look for a respected and accredited Ph.D. program.  These programs will indeed demand residency, and although this may be inconvenient or even prohibitive for you, it really is the only way.

It would certainly be more difficult. I would look into your institutions PhD programs requirements since in many cases you can apply for some type of extension depending on your circumstances, but most places are going to require you to have made some significant progress in 3 years otherwise they may drop you from the program. Most likely it just means  your margin of error is a little bit smaller than otherwise.

I'm in school for early childhood education (K-3) and it takes 4 years for your degree, but then in most states, you need your masters within a few years which will take about a year to get.

It all depends upon the field you want to go into.  With a Master's, worse case scenario, if you can't find a job doing what you really want to do, you can teach at a community college.  In addition, coursework will help you understand the whys and wherefores of how we communicate with each other.  If you're more into the media aspect, you can - after a few years near the bottom of the ladder - work your way up toward the top much easier.  Most employers look favorably upon people who have more than a Bachelor's degree....today's Master's is yesterday's Bachelor's degree.  And, if you're driven by the almighty dollar, with a Master's, it stands to reason you should make more money. Also, if you're thinking about getting a Phd., you have to have the Master's first!

Yes, you can study for a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education) but you must have a bachelor's degree first.  Choose the subject you want to specialise in and study for a bachelor's degree.  At the moment there are only six PGCE courses to choose from with the Open University: Modern Languages (Spanish, German or French), Geography, Maths, Music, Science and Technology.  If you prefer to specialise in another subject you might want to do your bachelor's degree with the Open University and your PGCE with another institution.  If you choose to do your PGCE with the Open University you need to be over 21 and willing to attend part-time work placements in schools.

They'll probably have you take a few core classes that you need first but sure. I know if you want to go for an education degree you can do it regardless of your undergrad degree. They just put you through a different program than people who do have their undergrad in education...but both end up with a masters in education.

You MUST enter a doctoral program through an accredited graduate school to earn any type of doctoral degree, including the Ph.D. I'm sorry, but this is the way it is. You meet with a committee which monitors your progress. You also submit your final dissertation to this committee. Holding the title "DR" holds great prestige. There is no easy route.\n\nThe only exception is the "honorary doctorate." Occaisionally, universities give these to individuals who have distinguished themselves so greatly that they wish to honor them somehow. This is usually reserved for Nobel Prize Winners, etc.\n\nThe answer to your basic question is: no, you can't do that.\n\nHope this helps.

Doctor of Philosophy.  That's normally what you need to be a college professor.  A lot of them also work in research.  \nYou have to write something called a dissertation, and it is very detailed and specific.  This is a research degree.  Committees of professors have to approve it all.  Usually takes a couple of years past the masters.  If you go straight for PhD with a bachelors, it will take longer to get it than if you already  have a master's.

depends on if you're planning on getting a higher degree. With a B.S. you can work in a lab, as a lab tech in industry, go into education and teach younger kids, etc. With a master's degree (which you usually have to pay for), you're in between because you're not the boss but don't do the grunt work. With a PhD (you usually get paid to study for this degree, at least in the US),you can have your own lab and do research, be a professor, go into industry, or basically anything.

Of course, lots of M.D.s and D.M.D.s and D.D.S.s do research without the PhD, but you would want to spend some time and effort studying your specialty. That time could be put to good use by acquiring additional degrees in virology. Some institutions have a combined M.D./ PhD. program.Contact several universities to find them.
