THE QUESTION
Do honorary doctorates hold the same academic weight as traditional doctorates?

THE ANSWER
This is false.
No, honorary doctorates don’t hold the same academic weight as traditional doctorates. Honorary doctorates are used instead to honor someone’s life’s work or significant contributions in a topic or industry.

Honorary doctorates can be given to anybody, and those chosen aren’t required to make a speech or to have attended the school from which the award is given.
