National Dissertation Day is observed on April 26 every year and serves as an annual reminder for students to get back on track and complete their dissertation. Each year in the U.S., only 50% of students who enroll in doctoral programs actually earn their doctoral degrees. That means 50,000 students are dropping out of doctoral programs because they are unable to finish their dissertations. On the flip side, individuals having doctoral degrees earn at least $20,000 more per year than those with their master’s degrees. A good return on investment!
