    Well, the PhD degree requires you to complete some foundational coursework during the course duration, which includes the fundamentals of research methodology, literature review, workshops and seminars, and a final research thesis, leaving little to no scope for customization.

    Having said that, you can customize the subjects based on your research topic. You can discuss with your allotted supervisors and choose a suitable research area based on which you will have to study the subjects apart from mandatory coursework.

    Hope this cleared your doubt.
