A business ethics program may include courses that teach students about specific controversial topics such as fiduciary responsibilities or corporate governance. This type of degree may be perfect for the student who desires higher education.

The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree.

That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
