A ph.D is just not a degree!

Did you know, getting the "Dr" stamp before your name is so valuable that you must undergo a rigorous study phase to achieve that? The training you must undergo is more valuable than the stamp that you receive after completing a PhD.

When you complete a PhD, especially from a recognised university such as DY Patil PhD College in Pune , you would have a deep understanding of research issues; you would have made efforts to solve various research related problems, and more. Furthermore, you would have solved various complicated problems, dedicated long hours to work on your research and dissertation, and handled frustrating situations as well.

Career options after completing PhD:

The addition of a PhD Degree to your resume offers a two-fold benefit, knowledge and skills. Any industry can benefit from these skills. Some of the career options after completing PhD include the following.

When a student takes PhD admission in Pune , such as in DY Patil University, they would have already decided their career goals.

The PhD fees in Pune that you pay may start to feel a meagre amount compared to the salary you draw. If you have a PhD, you would be drawing significantly better than your classmate with five years of experience who started their career after B.Tech.

Usually, PhD holders become a part of the University for five years to a decade before joining a start-up.
