Abstract
The development of professional doctorates in Australia and elsewhere in the 1990s has led to a reconsideration of the nature of the doctoral award. There is evidence in Australia for the emergence of what has been called a second generation of professional doctorates. In this inductive article, the features of the latter are developed from three case studies. Research into an EdD and its subsequent development from a first to a second generation programme are also presented.Keywords
