哲學博士(拉丁語:Philosophiæ Doctor,英語:Doctor of Philosophy,簡稱PhD、Ph.D.或D.Phil.,又譯研究博士)源于希腊语,意思为对智慧的爱(「Love of Wisdom」)。是英美教育传统中的各国,其大学可以授予的最高学位,已完成博士阶段课程但尚未完成论文的博士生又称为博士候选人(Ph.D.
儘管 "PhD" 這個名稱與哲學有關,但在現代,這個學位在各種學科和專業領域都存在(也包含哲學這一領域,PhD in Philosophy)
惟非研究性質的專業課程博士畢業生通常是用其他的學銜,例如建築學的建築學博士(D.Arch)、工程學的工程學博士(D. Eng.)、健康科學的公共衛生博士(Dr.P.H.)、教育學的教育博士(Ed.D),管理學的工商管理博士(DBA)、社會工作學的社會工作博士(DSW)、公共行政學的公共行政博士(DPA)。在普通法制國家,如英國或美國的法學博士稱為Doctor of Judicial Science(簡稱JSD)。 在傳統歐洲學制中,最高學銜為文學博士(Doctor of Letters, 簡稱D. Litt.)通常屬於榮譽性質,擁有人通常是知名且具有影響力的學者,而英國牛津大學慣用「D.Phil.」來稱呼博士學位。
