英语词汇phd的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Ph.D. The abbreviation of the Latin term Philosophiae Doc- tor, doctor of philosophy. According to Mitford Mathews’s Dic- tionary of Americanisms, “Ph.D. was known in British academic circles before it made its appearance in American use. British holders of the degree secured it from Germany. It was probably from Germany that the practice of granting such degrees came to be an established procedure in American education, and the use of Ph.D. appears to have a German rather than a British background.” Yale probably granted the first U.S. Ph.D., and the first mention of Ph.D. in print seems to have been in 1869.
