So becoming a professor in the university is all that can be done with a PhD degree, really?
I only asked the question in other to find out why most PhD holders in Nigeria are usually above 40, and I initially assumed that the program will be between 1-2 years, which is why I asked just to get clarifications.

I have Other dreams bro, and becoming a PhD holder is just one of them albeit not before 30 anymore.
Ok sir. I said [maybe] become a professor sha.

either you have PHD or not does ot affect creativity or progresiiveness...we had a Phd president, and it didn't make him better than those without one...Phd is good,but there are far more better thigs in life one should sought for



I never said that the PhD degree is the cause of creativity, my point was that it aids creativity.

candidates doing their PhD are expected to submit their thesis or dissertation based on extensive research in their chosen fields.

Surely it creates a fertile ground that breeds creativity and innovation, participants are expected to Contribute something new to their chosen fields.

It is not about length of time but what problem is solved! If you write a thesis to solve some problem today, you become a PhD, even Nobel laureatte immediately! That is the academia! It is a sector to answer questions, to proffer answers and that is what academic thesis do!

Crap...advisin someone who intend to do a doctorate to use wikipedia shocked grin cheesy.

Obviously u ve lil or no knowledge abt the subject matter.

@OP after your Bachelors ..look for a tuition free country to do your masters eg Germany..(if you ve the means go to the US) and after your masters if you make a good grade...you will get a phd offer with funding.

I will advise you not to do your graduate study in Nigeria esp as your course is research based.

..Good day "Esteemed Chemist" (@cindino20)..
....I'm looking to apply for the summer Msc chemistry programme at Ruhr university Bochum....
.......i tried sending you a pm...... Anticipating your reply as I need some first hand clarifications from your experience....... #respect...
