In particular, the functions Abbott describes as abstract knowledge-contrary to practical professional knowledge-are used to explain the need for a tandem development of the professional doctorate (Doctorate of Design, D.Des.) and doctorate of philosophy in design (Ph.D. Abbott's model of professionalization is explored and applied to the current state of visual communication design practice and education.
