Comparison
The D.H.Sc. has been compared in course content to the Doctor of Public Health (DrPH), Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), and Doctor of Philosophy in Health Science (PhD) degrees, but distinguishes itself from these degrees in focus and dissertation requirements. Furthermore, Master's credentialed paramedical professionals (i.e., Respiratory Therapist, Radiology technologist, Athletic trainer, Physical therapy, Occupational Therapy), advanced practice clinicians/diagnosticians with Master's degrees as well as mid- and executive-level healthcare administrators and educators are drawn to the D.H.Sc. credential in effort to advance their careers toward top executive echelons and academic appointments.

Famous quotes containing the word comparison:
“The comparison between Coleridge and Johnson is obvious in so far as each held sway chiefly by the power of his tongue. The difference between their methods is so marked that it is tempting, but also unnecessary, to judge one to be inferior to the other. Johnson was robust, combative, and concrete; Coleridge was the opposite. The contrast was perhaps in his mind when he said of Johnson: “his bow-wow manner must have had a good deal to do with the effect produced.””
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“The difference between human vision and the image perceived by the faceted eye of an insect may be compared with the difference between a half-tone block made with the very finest screen and the corresponding picture as represented by the very coarse screening used in common newspaper pictorial reproduction. The same comparison holds good between the way Gogol saw things and the way average readers and average writers see things.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“In comparison to the French Revolution, the American Revolution has come to seem a parochial and rather dull event. This, despite the fact that the American Revolution was successful—realizing the purposes of the revolutionaries and establishing a durable political regime—while the French Revolution was a resounding failure, devouring its own children and leading to an imperial despotism, followed by an eventual restoration of the monarchy.”
—Irving Kristol (b. 1920)
