* PhD (Doctor of Philosophy)
* ThD (Doctor of Theology)
I assume you mean specifically a PhD in Theology. From what research I've done, there seems to be no significant difference between the two as far as the education, opportunities, and authority one receives. In other words, a person with a PhD in a certain area of Theological or Biblical studies would be no more or less an expert than a person with a ThD in the same area.
The difference is usually on the institution side. For example, a ThD may be administered by the College of Religion or the College of Divinity at a University, whereas the PhD may be administered by the College of Humanities or something of that nature. The financial aid offered may be different. The prerequisites can be different; for a ThD you'll often require an M.Div, whereas a PhD may require only an M.A.
One interesting difference I noticed at the school I'm hoping to attend is that the ThD is nearly $3000 less per class than the PhD.
So you may pay less or more for one or the other and you may have small differing requirements, but in the long run, they're equal.
phd is a degree in research which a candidate can pursue after postgratution whereas dlit can be done after phd. it is a post phd degree.

The main difference is the degrees each holds. The college instructor only needs a master's degree while the university requires a PhD.
A Medical Doctor went to med school, and is a licensed physician PhD degrees are offered in just about every field (including medicine). A PhD typically signifies a scientific researcher.
The difference is that a college only gives a degree in one area. Like (culinary arts auto repair). A university however, lets you choose what degree you want (bachelors master Phd) and what in (communications accounting law) whatever. That is the difference between a college and a university.
