Can I apply for PhD after completing my Pg diploma from IGNOU or it needs master's degree??
Hello,
After completing your PG diploma, you have two options for pursuing your PhD:
The PG diploma must be recognised by the Association of Indian Universities as comparable to a master's degree programme, and you must score at least 55 percent overall, among other requirements.
One must hold a professional graduate degree (like mbbs, BTech/BE/BPharm/BVSc, CS/CA/CMA, etc.) that can be equivalent to a master's degree programme by ugc. In addition, in order to get admitted to a PhD programme, you must pass the CSIR/GATE/UGC Net/MHRD fellowship test.
Hope it helped
