According to the UGC, a Distance PhD is not valid, so IGNOU does not offer a distance PhD Program. However, IGNOU offers a Ph.D. program in part-time and full-time modes, requiring all students to attend coursework classes as per the IGNOU Research Guidelines. The program lasts a minimum of three years and a maximum of six years, with women candidates and individuals with disabilities (40% or more, or “severe” if the percentage is not specified) receiving an additional two years. 


Moreover, there is one more alternative for you if you are a working professional who wants to get recognized with a “Dr” title without regularly visiting college and the alternative is an Online DBA, which stands for Doctor of Business Administration and is equivalent to a PhD program. By pursuing an Online DBA you will be recognized with a “Dr” title and can reach the top management level such as CEO, or COO.
