A well said by respected Prof. Dr. Abdul Rashid Moten:
There are a number of people who are struggling to get Ph.D not knowing what it stands for.
To my colleagues, Ph.D stands for:
1. Permanent head Damage,
2. Please hire. Desperate, or
3. "Physiologically deficient."
For me, Ph.D stands for:
1. P = Perseverance and patience
2. H = Hard work
3. D = Disciplined dedication
Ph.D. refers to a life dedicated to acquiring and disseminating knowledge and help improve the society and humanity.
Unfortunately, it is now conceived as a "degree" in exchange for a dissertation. Sadly, it is a prerequisite for permanent employment in a university. It is also a prerequisite for promotion in many organizations. Where is the life dedicated to learning and helping humanity?
Think.
