According to Wikipedia: The Doctor of Information Technology (DIT) is a research-oriented professional doctoral degree offered by some universities. It is of the same academic level as traditional PhD; however, DIT research focuses more on industry practice than on theoretical framework. Upon successful completion, the title of "Doctor" is awarded and the post-nominals of DIT can be used.
This degree is offered at Queensland University of Technology in Australia, according to their website :
