Southern Mississippi has an online Doctorate in International Development. Pace and Liberty both have online Doctoral-level Business degrees (Liberty has a couple of others as well). Carnegie Melon is rumored to have an online PhD in Public Policy, but I can't confirm it as that section of the website is a bit muddled. Salve Regina also has an flexible learning PhD that may work.

There are also a lot of EdD or PhDs in Education from schools that are quite reputable.

Colorado State has an online PhD in Systems Engineering and might have other options as well.

Check out some of the limited residency programs as well They typically require you to go to the campus for 1 weekend per year, or something like that. That tends to filter out some of the for profit schools.

I know several people that have done it through here. There is a limited residency but it is pretty easy to work with.

I think that it will depend on what type of Doctorate degree you are looking into. I've looked for an online doctorate for IT and the only one that I could find to fit my needs was UOP.

Okay, now lets take this to another level. What funding strategies have you found or used to pay for your doctorate/PHD?

Sir, I just submitted my dissertation for mentor review through an online program. It can be rough at times as I feel that many of the professors are professors elsewhere and this is a side job. Hence it can be slower getting responses. However, my masters was online and it was great. It really depends on your need to have support from others/in person or not.

Check out the university. Some are not reputable. Many brick and mortar universities now have an online option. That might be better.
