This might not be the right place to ask about an EngD, but basically I have been offered both a PhD and an EngD in the same field of study, at different Uni's. I'm not too familiar about the EngD though and need some advice.

Which one is more respected in industry? Anyone here have any experience with an EngD?

Anyone at all care to comment please?

The EngD is equivalent in academic standing to a PhD, and includes taught coursework in areas such as management, personal development and technical areas. The EngD aims to provide a more vocationally oriented doctorate that meets the needs of industry. The traditional UK PhD contains little or no taught element.

I'm afraid we can't comment on whether the EngD has been successful in providing industry with the high-flyers it was designed to create. Hopefully some people who have done, are doing or have recruited EngDs will add their views.
