socialcomm Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 I believe, in most cases, if you're getting funding from a school, they won't allow you to work. So it may depend on your situation, I know some people are ABD and working in their industry of choice, but at that point they aren't getting a stipend from their school. The answer may change from school to school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aginath Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 The answer depends on the program (requirements) and your commitments/responsibilities. I've had two friends recently work full time and attend school part time to get their PhD. Yeah, it took longer, but they did it. I believe both were able to use their full time job to collect data for their dissertation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
