Hi,
If you want to go for a PhD, first of all, search for some good universities and then look out for a topic that you want to do research on.
Most universities offer PhD programs, generally as non-residential so you can pursue this while working.
If you are not working, you can apply for a scholarship, typically ranging from 10k to 14k, depending on the institute.
I'm currently pursuing my PhD at IIT Delhi. You can also consider applying to IIT Mumbai, where the Management department is very well established.
Many other institutes also offer similar programs, but they may refer to it as a Fellowship program, which is equivalent to a PhD but not a degree.
Once you decide on a topic, a synopsis is prepared with the guidance of a university or institute-appointed guide.
The submission of the synopsis can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Once it's approved and you pass your viva, you become an enrolled student.
Your research work then begins in earnest, in consultation with your guide. The maximum time allowed to submit your thesis is 7 years, with a minimum requirement of 2 and a half years.
Upon successful completion, you earn your doctorate. 😊
If you have any doubts or queries, please feel free to contact me.
Cheers,

Hi! In order to pursue your doctoral studies, you need to have a focused topic: the general area and the specific topic in that area. Full-time will require 3-4 years and part-time will take about 5-8 years depending on how much time and effort you put.
Regarding the universities, there are several you will have to decide on, based on your area of interest, availability of good supervisors, proximity to your place of residence, full-time or part-time, etc.
To start with, there are the IIMs, IITs, and the IISc, besides certain NITs. Then, there are other regional universities that are pretty good, having their own standing. Remember that the selection of the university is subjective and is your personal decision based on the above parameters.
All the best in your doctoral endeavors.

Dear Ms. Archna,
I thank you and appreciate your valuable information. Could you please elaborate on how to enroll in a Ph.D. program while working full-time? I have heard that the UGC has discontinued the practice of offering Ph.D./MPhil through correspondence. Can you shed some light on this matter?
Thank you once again.

Hi All,
I am an HR professional with 7 years of experience. I have a full-time Bachelor's degree in Engineering but a part-time diploma in HR.
In case I want to pursue a Ph.D. in HR, do I need a full-time HR degree or will my one-year diploma be sufficient?
Please guide.

As far as my knowledge goes, in most universities, a Master's degree is required to enroll in a PhD program. I don't think diploma courses in HR will suffice; it usually has to be an MBA. If I am mistaken, kindly correct me...!!!

Hi,
It's my dream to pursue a Ph.D. from IIT, but I am feeling much hesitation because I did my MBA in HRD and MPhil from APS University (a state university) which is not as big and reputed as JNU or Delhi University. I have qualified the UGC NET five times, and this time JRF as well. Can you please inform me if it is possible for me to get admission in IIT for a Ph.D.? If yes, kindly guide me on how to prepare for it.
Eagerly waiting for your reply.
