Quote from the Related Link: "A cheap and effective way to torture someone was with the use of rats. There were many variants, but the most common was to force a rat through a victim's body (usually the intestines) as a way to escape. This was done as follows:

The victim was completely restrained and tied to the ground or any horizontal surface. A rat was then placed on his stomach covered by a metallic container. As the container was gradually heated, the rat began to look for a way out - through the victim's body.

Digging a hole usually took a few hours of agonizing pain for the victim. This almost invariantly resulted in death."

Can you receive a degree in medieval torture?

Yes, you actually could receive a degree in medieval torture. There are a number of colleges that allow students to design their own programs, leading to a number of degrees in unique majors. Also, it is possible to get a doctorate in an area of study for which no doctorate has ever previously been granted, and I have known three different people who had unique doctorates. If you are planning on doing this with real, accredited schools, however, be prepared to spend a lot of money doing it.
