  • Shaquille O'Neal menyematkan gelar doktoral pada Instagram pribadinya.
  • Pertanyaan-pertanyaan pun muncul, Bagaimana Shaq mendapat gelar tersebut? Di mana Shaq menempuh pendidikan?
  • Skor Indonesia membongkar kisah di balik gelar Ed.D yang didapatkan  oleh Shaquille O'Neal.

SKOR.id - DR. SHAQUILLE O'NEAL Ed.D, begitu Shaquille O'Neal menuliskan nama di Instagram Pribadinya, @shaq. Benarkah sang legenda NBA memiliki gelar doktoral? 

Sook Shaquille O'Neal adalah legenda NBA, tak perlu diragukan. Shaq, nama panggilan O'Neil, menjadi salah satu Center terbaik dalam sejarah bola basket dunia.

Gelar 'terbaik' ini didapat Shaquille O'Neil karena Ia dianugerahi banyak talenta. 

Tak sekadar kemampuannya di lapangan basket, Shaq juga menginspirasi karena Ia adalah salah satu pemain paling sukses dalam sejarah NBA.

Peduli Pendidikan

Shaquille O'Neal berinvestasi di banyak peluang dan bidang. Ia meraih banyak kesuksesan setelah pensiun dari NBA. 

Sepanjang karier, legenda basket ini menghasilkan sekitar 292 juta dolar AS dari kontrak. Tetapi, kekayaan bersihnya diperkirakan mencapai 400 juta dolar AS pada tahun 2022.

Namun, salah satu yang paling menawan adalah semangat investasinya di bidang pendidikan. 

Shaq telah mendapatkan banyak kualifikasi penting dari berbagai institusi pendidikan, baik formal maupun non-formal.

Salah satunya adalah gelar doktoral. Ya, Shaquille O'Neal dengan percaya diri menyematkan gelar tersebut di akun instagramnya.

Shaquille O'Neal mendapatkan gelar Ed.D, sebuah gelar post-graduate yang "setara" dengan Ph.D.

Gelar Ed.D. milik Shaq didapatkan  dari Barry University, Florida, pada tahun 2012. Hal ini diraih tak lama setelah Ia pensiun dari NBA.

Tandem Kobe Bryant di LA Lakers ini menerima gelar Ed.D. dalam Pengembangan Sumber Daya Manusia. Gelar doktornya memiliki fokus pada pembelajaran organisasi dan kepemimpinan.

“Ini untuk ibu saya yang selalu menekankan pentingnya pendidikan,” kata Shaquille O'Neal saat wisuda, dikutip dari Vice.

Cumlaude

Shaquille O'Neal bukan tipe selebritas yang sekadar lulus dari universitas. 

Ia serius untuk lulus dari doktoralnya dengan IPK 3,81 setelah menyelesaikan 16 mata kuliah di Barry University.

Memang, Ed.D. (Doktor Pendidikan) dan Ph.D. (Doctor of Philosophy) adalah dua gelar yang mirip, namun berbeda. Gelar Ph.D lebih fokus pada penelitian, sedang Ed.D merupakan gelar ilmu terapan.

Sebelum meraih gelar doktor, Shaq juga meraih gelar Sarjana dari Louisiana State University pada tahun 2000. 

Pelatih Shaq saat itu di LA Lakers, Phil Jackson, mengizinkan sang Center legendaris untuk melewatkan satu laga demi menghadiri wisudanya.

Selama musim pertamanya bersama Miami Heat , Shaquille O'Neal menerima gelar MBA dari University of Phoenix.
