Difference Between MPhil and PhD
In the modern scenario, there is a cut-throat competition of reaching to the highest pedestal of success. With this in mind, individuals take up courses at will, do well and come out with flying colors. However, you’d only find a handful of individuals daring themselves for the quest of high-end degrees like a PhD or an MPhil. Although these two degrees are considered to be of the highest form, there lies a very thin line of difference between them.
In MPhil or Master of Philosophy, the candidate needs to analyze an already approved topic and then come up with a well-informed theory. These theories are generally based on the applicable research methodologies to the concerned study field. Although, it might look to you, in first attempt, a cake walk, but to tell you the fact, it is not. Here the applicant needs to practice originality and uniqueness and hence they are also expected to expand the frontiers of the existent knowledge by their researching skills. Despite the fact that MPhil is not supposed to be that easy, it is still very simple when equated with PhD.
In PhD, without any doubt, the demand for originality, excellence and uniqueness is even greater. Here the students not only comprehends and investigates how to expand the edges of knowledge by research, but they are also expected to become an important and critical contributor to knowledge pool. More Knowledge, hence, is thereby created and interpreted in the Doctor of Philosophy or PhD degree.
If you go by the numbers of years to complete these respected degrees, for MPhil, a candidate is supposed to complete 2 years of study, whereas in PhD, it takes a year more. Moreover, in MPhil, the candidate is expected to submit a thesis paper of around 20,000 to 40,000 words, whereas in PhD, a thesis paper is somewhere between 40,000 to 80,000, twice of what is expected in MPhil.
