They are all fine. However, imhe, no academic puts "Ph.D" on their card. It's assumed that you have one, especially if "Professor" is anywhere on the card. A Ph.D. is sort of like having a ticket for the show. No one pins it to their chest. Same goes for research labs like JPL, NASA/Ames, etc... The only reason that you would put Ph.D. is if you work in the bureaucracy or in the corporate world, where not everyone has a Ph.D. The only letters I generally see on academic and researchers cards are things like fellowships in the Academy of Sciences or a similar honor.

I dunno, I have to disagree with that. I've been in academia (psych) for the better part of my life and whose with doc degrees have Psy.D. or Ph.D. on their card. It is assumed that if one is called a "psychologist" then they have a doctorate as MS level practitioners default to "therapist". Perhaps this is different in other fields such as research as the above poster mentioned IMHO if you get through a doctoral program you deserve to put it on there MrR

Ph.D. looks better, IMO.

not all professors have a ph.d. it is a common complaint at many colleges that undergrad classes, especially lower division ones, are being taught by professors with only a master's degree.

Ph.D. in Aviation

It looks like Liberty University is now offering Ph.D. in Aviation. URL: https://www.liberty.edu/online/aeronautics/doctoral/phd-aviation/

Good for Liberty . They already have a well-established School of Aeronautics offering bachelor's and master's degree programs. ERAU has some competition.

They're offering it up as a scholarly degree. I have a hard time accepting the idea that Aviation is a scholarly field: The dissertation gives you the chance to develop scholarly findings and contribute to the base of knowledge in your field. The degree is about the aviation industry: This degree covers a wide range of current and historical issues affecting the aeronautic industry. Additionally, you can add to the existing knowledge base in this field through your dissertation. THAT is a description of a professional, not scholarly, doctorate. I wonder what the central theory(ies) of Aviation is/are? What, if any, are the contributing theories? And what makes Aviation distinct from others, like business or macroeconomics? Meteorology? Physics? And, because it's Liberty , there's this: This doctoral aeronautical science degree is designed to help shape you into an aviation leader who is committed to investigating and solving aviation issues through research, educational leadership, and Christian ethical standards . (Emphasis added.) Ethics can be part of a discipline's central or controlling theory. (It is in my field.) I wonder what adding the distinction "Christian" does? And since it is called out, must it be addressed in the research process? How? A scholarly doctorate is designed to create new theory (knowledge) or test theory, or both. They acknowledge this in their description. (See above where they call it "knowledge base." I wonder what that knowledge base is? No answers, just questions and some opinions.

The curricula for their online aviation and aeronautical programs are awful. They're management programs with planes and airports thrown in. They should just call them aviation management .

    PhD and Ph.D. are both correct. Canadians tend to omit the periods and those from the U.S. tend to keep them.

Full stops (AmE ‘periods’) are normal in American English.
