I did some proofreading and web design work recently for an education agency run by two Bangladeshi gentlemen. Both claim to have MBAs but cannot write English properly. Perhaps it is not unusual anymore? Nevertheless, they are recruiting for PHDs, which they refer to as a commodity not a distinguished level in education. The universities are their list are Sunderland and BPP. The latter is a private uni with an apparently loose regard for academia.

None of the students they recruit are able to do PHDS.
