Hi, 

You might have seen your professors, staff members, colleagues, or relatives still pursuing the PhD program and are still working on projects and a thesis. Yes, PhD programs do take around 6 to 8 years to get completed and this completion varies from specialization to specialization.  


After the completion of the master's program, you can enroll in the PhD program with the specialization field of your choice. In short, we see then after the completion of the master's program, it takes around 4 to 5 years for the completion of the program. If we look into the duration of the program then it has a reason to be known as the longest program. This program usually takes around 4 to 5 years and can even extend to 8 years as this program has research work, thesis, projects, and practical work that requires careful and deep research work.


In summary, it usually takes around 4 to 5 years to complete the program still this can vary with the subjects and specialization.
