It all depends are what you plan to do with it. What are your career goals?The reason I am asking is that a doctorate might make it harder for you in the job market unless you plan to go into the academic community as a professor to teach or be a consultant with a company that is searching for someone with educational credentials. If you plan to pursue a job as a professor, you may want to check the college/university you would like to work at to see if the degree from the University of Phoenix will suffice. They might want you to have more hands on experience in the traditional "college" environment in order to teach students.Finally, if you are going to pursue a doctorate you need to keep in mind a couple of things--will you be proud of your degree hanging on the wall and/or are you good at taking online courses? Some students do not do well taking online courses.Bottom line--talk to other students and alumni. Good Luck!
