I have completed my MBA in finance. What should I do next? Should I go for a course like Ph.D or anything else? Kindly suggest.

Dear Khaja Zahed Ali, I highly recommend Ph.D. programme if you are looking for the teaching profession as by 2023 Ph.D. will be mandatory for the teaching profile. Moreover, Ph.D. will help you to explore more yourself in the respective domain. My friend is also doing Ph.D. in Management at LPU after his MBA programme. It is not difficult to get admission to Ph.D. if you are good at research work. To increase your chances to get admission to Ph.D. you should have a good academic record and the area of research you want to work in. There are many universities that offer the Ph.D. programme, LPU is one of the best universities to do a Ph.D. to enhance your knowledge in the research area. Let me share something about the Ph.D. programme at LPU. Eligibility: You should have a minimum of 55% marks in your master's degree in a relevant subject. After that, you have to qualify for the LPU NEST exam if you have not qualified for a national level test such as GATE UGC NET CSIR, GPAT etc. The entrance will have 70% weightage in selection. After that, you have to appear for an interview and qualify for the same and have 30% weightage for the final selection. You may avail of scholarships also on the basis of LPU NEST or National Level Test. There is a special scholarship for female students to pursue a full-time or part-time Ph.D. at LPU. The highlight of the programme is the Flexi-Course Work option specially designed to accommodate professionals wherein a student can choose the best-suited option to complete the course work. Option 1 Classes on weekends (Saturday & Sunday only) Option 2 4 days course work every month (Preferably every second week: Thu-Sun) Note: LPU is not offering this option of coursework to agriculture students. Option 3 15 days of coursework (In the month of April/May ) LPU researchers won a huge research grant worth 10.8 Million through the Indo Canadian Impact project from DBT, GOI. For more details, you may refer to the LPU website. I hope this helps Thanks.

MBA in finance is in itself a good course if you see your profile in finance for future. For corporate PhD any other degree is not required. You may opt for higher studies in case you want to go into teaching and research. You may search for courses like FRM, etc. in case you want to learn more in finance part.
