Ph.D

Dear Anush, To the best of my knowledge, the post-graduation should be in the same subject for the Ph.D. programme. Therefore, you can pursue Ph.D. in Management after an MBA programme but not in commerce. Only M.Com students can pursue Ph.D. in Commerce. My friend is also doing Ph.D. in Management at LPU after his MBA programme. It is not difficult to get admission to Ph.D. if you are good at research work. To increase your chances to get admission to Ph.D. you should have a good academic record and the area of research you want to work in. There are many universities that offer the Ph.D. programme, LPU is one of the best universities to do a Ph.D. to enhance your knowledge in the research area. Let me share something about the Ph.D. programme at LPU. Eligibility: You should have a minimum of 55% marks in your master's degree in a relevant subject. After that, you have to qualify for the LPU NEST exam if you have not qualified for a national level test such as GATE UGC NET CSIR, GPAT etc. The entrance will have 70% weightage in selection. After that, you have to appear for an interview and qualify for the same and have 30% weightage for the final selection. You may avail of scholarships also on the basis of LPU NEST or National Level Test. There is a special scholarship for female students to pursue a full-time or part-time Ph.D. at LPU. The highlight of the programme is the Flexi-Course Work option specially designed to accommodate professionals wherein a student can choose the best-suited option to complete the course work. Option 1
Classes on weekends (Saturday & Sunday only)
Option 2
4 days course work every month (Preferably every second week: Thu-Sun)
Note: LPU is not offering this option of coursework to agriculture students. Option 3
15 days of coursework (In the month of April/May )
LPU researchers won a huge research grant worth 10.8 Million through the Indo Canadian Impact project from DBT, GOI. For more details, you may refer to the LPU website. I hope this helps
Thanks.
