And kind things done by men with ugly faces
And the gold cup won by the worst horse at the races,
So I trust in myself, too

The PhD degree - a simple definition

"The term 'PhD' stands for 'Doctor of Philosophy'. In most cases, a PhD:

Is an advanced postgraduate degree involving three or more years of independent research on an original topic.
Is carried out with the support of one or more expert academic supervisors.
Results in a thesis that offers a significant original contribution to knowledge.
Confers the title ‘Doctor’ upon successful candidates.
Is the highest academic degree a student can achieve and is considered the de facto entrance qualification for a career in academia."

My request to Ariful Islam Laskar Sir: Please do lose your faith and confidence. At the end of the day, you will win the crown.
