I see absolutely no evidence of the German "Dr.-Ing." being a "higher doctorate", definitely not in the sense of the UK's higher doctorates. --Pepekupfer (talk) 09:29, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I would not see a strict relationship between the degrees of "EngD" and the German "Dr.-Ing." -- exept maybe for the similar name when translating literally. By defintion, the German degree of "Dr.-Ing." is a research doctorate and internationally recognized as "Ph.D."
In the vast majority of cases there is no "taught element" as a requirement to obtain a "Dr.-Ing." degree in Germany, assuming that this means the candidate needs to attend lectures etc. Contrariwise, many "Dr.-Ing." candidates actually teach in lectures and university courses. Nevertheless, many universities obligate or encourage their "Dr.-Ing." candidates to undergo certain softskill seminars or comparable professional development, which is completely different from attending lectures and having to pass graded courses. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.188.128.31 (talk) 10:31, 16 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
