hi,
If you want to do a Ph.D. in Geography, first you need a Master’s degree with at least 55% marks. You have to clear a Ph.D. entrance exam or qualify UGC NET/JRF. After that, you’ll attend an interview where you discuss your research interest. Once selected, you’ll complete coursework for 6 months to 1 year. Then you start your research, which usually takes 3 to 5 years
