Doctor of philosophy

PhD stands for Doctor of Philosophy, but its meaning goes deeper than just a title. The word "philosophy" itself comes from ancient Greece, literally translating to "love of wisdom" (φιλοσοφία - Philosophia). Originally, a philosopher wasn't just someone with a doctorate; it referred to someone who had achieved a well-rounded education encompassing the fundamental issues of their time.

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

While a love of wisdom is still important, today's Doctor of Philosophy applies to individuals who have pursued knowledge in a much more specialized field. Think of it this way: in the past, a philosopher was like a generalist scholar, broadly versed in many subjects. Today's PhD is a specialist who has delved deeply into a specific area of knowledge.

This MBA program is unique in its delivery style. It focuses on assignments and a thesis, eliminating the stress of traditional exams. Assignments likely test your understanding of the course material through written work, case studies, or projects. The thesis provides an opportunity to delve deeper into a specific management topic through research and writing.

World-class lecture panels: You'll have the chance to learn from experienced and qualified instructors. Affordable payment plans: Makes the program financially accessible to a wider range of students.

Guarantee of timely completion: This provides peace of mind, ensuring you graduate within the program's timeframe.
