The Doctorate of Philosophy (Ph.D. ) is the highest doctorate. However, there are some doctorates granted in the United Kingdom called Higher Doctorates which are awarded for a successful academic career and considerable research. Nevertheless, the Ph.D. requires the most credits for its completion and also a demanding dissertation. In summary the Ph.D. is not only the highest doctorate among the "real" academic doctorates but also ranks much higher than puffed up pseudo doctorates such as the M.D. and J.D. in terms of scholarship and academics.
