Best Answer

The doctorate would take approximately four years post bachelor's to complete. The degree can run up to 60 credits in coursework particular to a specific field of study. The actual length of time depends much on how long it takes a student to prepare and defend their dissertation which typically follows the prescribed credit coursework. The dissertation is an individual student project advancing an original view point on a topic of the students choosing. It is developed through extensive supporting research and must be approved by the designated committee.

Why is doctor of philosophy called as PhD instead of dph?

The title "Doctor of Philosophy" originated in the 14th century from universities in Europe, where most academic disciplines fell under the umbrella of "philosophy." Over time, the abbreviation "PhD" became popularized to distinguish it from other doctoral degrees. The abbreviation "DPh" is not commonly used because "PhD" has become the standard term for this specific type of doctoral degree.

What does PhD stand for?

PhD is an abbreviation for "Doctor of Philosophy" (Philosophiae Doctor).The reason for the name is historical. Most universities used to have only four majors: divinity, law, medicine, and philosophy. All other modern subjects (such as physics, English, math) were part of philosophy, and so most subjects still use PhD as their doctoral degree.To receive a PhD you first must receive a BA or BS degree (4 year undergraduate degree). You then apply for a Master's degree and then apply to be accepted to a PhD program. Some PhD programs combine the Master's and PhD into one.
