In Finland, most doctoral degrees awarded in the fields of natural sciences, technology and economics are termed D.Sc. degrees in English, with a suffix indicating the field of study. However, there is no translation of the term "Doctor of Science" to Finnish. For example, the proper translation for the doctorate in technology ("tekniikan tohtori") would be D.Sc. (Tech.), whereas a doctorate in economics and business administration ("kauppatieteiden tohtori") would be translated as D.Sc. (Econ.). When conversing or writing in English, the prefix "Dr" may be used to address a holder of a doctoral degree awarded in Finland. The degrees are equivalent to "filosofian tohtori" (FT, English: PhD), but FT is usually awarded only in general sciences, not in specializations like engineering, economics or medicine.
