For those who want to gain a much deeper understanding of a specialisation in the field of computer graphics, gaining a doctoral degree (PhD) is an excellent option for educational progression. The PhD program typically takes three years to complete and includes research, coursework and writing of a thesis.
In order to complete a PhD successfully, students must exhibit competency in more advanced academic work and research capabilities for more complex topics within their chosen field, as well as being able to present the results effectively after thorough analysis and investigation.
A doctoral degree in computer graphics can lead to practicing as specialist in a particular field or teaching roles in academia.
Financial support is typically available to doctorate level programs. Check with your preferred university to learn about their application processes and the funds that could be available to you.
