Requirements for earning a doctorate degree vary from country to country and from school to school. Fundamentally, one must master the subject completely and extend the body of knowledge about it to attain a PhD. A PhD program demands extensive studying and dedicated effort from the student.
Mastering A Subject
Before applying for a doctorate degree, most universities require that the student has earned a Bachelor's degree (usually a four year undergraduate course) and a Master's degree, a post-graudate degree course that follows a bachelor's degree.
