After all, what is a doctorate? Understand in 4 points!
#1 In general terms
Stricto sensu postgraduate courses comprise masters and doctorate programs open to candidates who have graduated from undergraduate courses and who meet the requirements of educational institutions and the student selection notice.
Previously, the doctorate represented the “crowning” of the researcher's life, since it was associated with the final work of a career in academic research.
Therefore, it used to be expected to defend a thesis, the presentation of something unprecedented for the field of knowledge.
However, most higher education institutions now require a doctor's degree in their admission processes, not just a master's degree.
Today, the doctorate is more linked to early career research and theses that are relevant and perfected for the research area in question.
#2 Duration and Credit Hours
Four to five years.
The workload at the university is not large, but studying at home, on your own, and producing the thesis require a lot of reading and research, in general with exclusive dedication.
#3 Selection Process
It is possible to study a doctorate after graduation, without having gone through a master's degree, if the educational institution considers the candidate's research proposal to be relevant.
However, most schools prefer to have a master's degree.
The selection includes analysis of the curriculum, approval of the research project and interview, as well as a test of specific and general knowledge.
The most reputable programs require mastery of at least two foreign languages
#4 Conclusion and Title
The thesis, which is submitted to an examining board, must contain an “unpublished” point of view, which contributes to the advancement of knowledge.
Submitted to a questioning session by specialists from the bank, if the postgraduate student is approved, he/she receives the title of doctor!
Prepare for academic life in the best way…
