    LPU is fine with having PhD students working as instructors/lecturer/teaching assistant at the same time, and it's actually quite common.Your Job will not get you into trouble to get doctorate level education. Ph.Can be done by two means either as regular or either as a part-time mode.
    Yes, you can enroll yourself in part-time Ph.D. programme at LPU if you don't want to quit your job. But still you need to check the admission terms and conditions for P.h.D programme in academic session 2020-21 by visiting www.lpu.in or by contacting LPU counselor on toll free number available on official website of LPU.
    Thank You.

    Ph.D. programme is usually offered in full time and part time mode by many universities. It does get difficult to pursue studies along with job. It requires a lot of dedication and time.
    LPU does offer Ph.D. programme in both full time and part time mode. You need to clarify as to which programme you want to enroll for. You can check the university website www.lpu.in for eligibility & admission criteria, fee and programme details, etc.

Hey, for MCA at LPU's Admission Office, you're good if you've got a bachelor's like BCA, BSc IT/CS, or any graduation degree with computer Science across all years and at least 55-60% marks overall.
