        Her PhD is in investigating the cultural/social context and implications of women in breakdancing. It’s not PhD in performing breakdancing.

        It’s genuinely not. Her PhD is in the cultural politics of breakdancing. That’s exactly what the other person said but less concise.

          And I could have a PhD in Cinema but it doesn’t mean I’ll be a good director. That’s not the point of the degree.
