i have completed M.C.A. pls tell me what is the benefit of doing phd and also about entrance exam and whole processor of doing phd.

I think it depends in what area you are in. In science a PhD, in my experience, sets you up as a proper specialist, which opens up jobs in academia and gets you paid more in industry. It gives you a host of vital skills that you don't have fully developed after a first degree, such as self-management in non-structured situations, project development, fact finding and analysis, teamwork, report writing, etc., etc. Also, you tend to get taken more seriously by people in professional situations if you are called Dr, this is very useful in making advances within a company when you are young.


PhD means Doctor of Philosophy and it isnt a diploma and is higher than a MPhil and a Masters some postgraduates go straight from doing a BSC skip a Msc and go straight onto a PHD
Having a Phd does open doors for you both academically and industry,My cousin did his PHD a few years back and is now head of a department at some reaserch facility
