PhD in Medical Science in India: Opportunities it offers

Blog summary.

A PhD in medicine helps you to pursue a career in medical research, it also opens up a range of opportunities and sets you apart from your peers. Aspiring students need to take up All India Entrance Examinations for pursuing PhD programs and with a limited number of seats, it can be challenging to gain entry. TAUs online PhD programs are affordable and give you the flexibility to study and work simultaneously. It offers specialization in clinical cardiology, diabetology, general medicine, anesthesia, HIV medicine, orthopedics, microbiology and many more. Registered medical professionals with a master’s or a postgraduate degree with three years of experience in a relevant specialty make you eligible to enroll in the online PhD program with Texila. It opens up job opportunities in leading biomedical centers, pharmacology units, pharmaceutical companies, or other research units. 

Specialization

Global recognition , career growth, income increase, new approach, requirements, application , all india entrance examination, interview , structure , phd in medicine vs. md in medicine, salary of a doctor with phd in medicine, feasibility , affordability , resource availability, phd in medical sciences eligibility.

Have you already completed your full-time postgraduate degree? Are you thinking about what to do after MD or MS? PhD in Medicine in India is a Doctorate course offered to individuals who wish to pursue a career in medical research. Through PhD degree in Medicine, you can broaden your view of the relevant specialty, which helps in medical research projects.

Usually, this degree’s time-span is 3 years, but you can complete it in 5 years depending on your college and type of education.

However, one thing that is necessary for PhD in Medicine is an interest in learning. Medical science is a vast field, and diving into subjects that broaden your perspective requires dedication, consistent hard work, and learning ability. This would help you polish and improve your innovative and analytical skills.

The course and syllabus of PhD in Medical Sciences are designed to encompass research, dissertation, and thesis. You would cover multiple medicine fields, such as epidemiology, neurology, genetics, etc., along with non-clinical subjects. Of course, you would get a chance to select your specialization, but not until the PhD in Medicine’s final year.

Once you complete the PhD in Medicine in India, you will gain the opportunity to work in research units of hospitals, pharmacies, biomedical organizations, medical pharmacology, etc.

PhD in Medicine in India: Opportunities for Doctors

There is no doubt that PhD in Medicine in India brings you a range of opportunities. From career growth to wide recognition, you can move two steps ahead of your peers with a PhD degree in medicine.

Below we have explored some opportunities that doctors can utilize after PhD in Medical Sciences:

Whether you wish to pursue as a researcher or continue in the field as a biomedical scientist, a PhD in Medicine in India is an excellent course. You need to spend 3 years polishing your skills and improving your dexterity in research to pursue a career in a specialty of your choice successfully.

If you complete PhD after MS or PhD after MD, you are likely to gain global recognition. This is to say that your career graph would expand and give you employment opportunities in countries other than India. Once you have completed your PhD in Medical Sciences and entered a specialty of your choice, hospitals, research centers, pharmaceutical centers, and biomedical organizations are more likely to believe in your skills.

One of the major concerns of medical professionals is career growth.

Will a PhD degree in Medicine give me career opportunities?

Of course, it will.

During your MD, you advance your skills for clinical roles. You are then more equipped to diagnose patients rather than research. However, PhD offers more. The research-oriented thinking and knowledge offer you lab techniques and other skills, such as applying for grant money.

One of the sub-aspects of career growth is income. An MD is not likely to earn as much in research as a PhD in Medicine candidate. When you specialize in a field and acquire knowledge in clinical research for three years, you automatically become more favorable to clinical research centers. This means that your income also improves when compared to an MD professional.

More than anything, PhD in Medicine in India helps you innovate and create new approaches. With an MD, you may enter into research, but the innovation culture may keep you behind. However, PhD in Medical Sciences polishes your skills for innovation, new approaches, and ideas.

PhD in Medicine in India: Admission Process

After exploring the opportunities offered by PhD in Medicine in India, we are sure you are already thinking about enrolling in the course. Here are the admission procedure and requirements. 

The minimum qualifying requirement for a PhD in Medical Sciences is a postgraduate degree in a medical specialty. It is also preferred to have 2-3 years of experience after a master’s or postgraduate degree in a particular specialty. 

Besides these factors, you need language skills, such as well-versed in English and Hindi, or languages common in India.

Medical PhD applications in India are crucial and difficult as well. Every college or university has a predetermined number of places for this program. Hence, every year, they can allow only a limited number of students to apply for the PhD in Medicine.

Generally, a notification is released for the number of seats available before the application. You can check the number of seats available in the preferred colleges easily.

Admissions and applications for the PhD degree in Medicine are much simpler in online courses. There is a simple eligibility criterion along with no limit on the number of admissions. Scroll below to directly check how you can enroll for an online medical PhD.

You have to complete All India Entrance Examinations for pursuing PhD in Medical Sciences. For instance, the All India Institute of Medical Science conducts an entrance exam to assess the candidate’s research capability and basic knowledge in medical sciences. Clearing this exam along with the interview will help you secure a seat in a university for PhD in Medicine.

As already discussed, the next step after entrance exams is the interview. Once you clear the written exam, you need to appear for interviews. During the PhD interview, you will be assessed on your medical sciences specialty experience and research interest. If you successfully clear this phase, you would be able to enroll for PhD in Medicine course.

However, we have already explored that an online PhD in Medicine offers a much simpler admission method. The admission eligibility criteria are stringent, but you can clear that easily. 

PhD in Medicine in India: Structure and Programme

Knowing about the structure of the PhD in Medical Science would help you better judge the course’s complexity. Evaluate the structure discussed below:

A PhD in Medicine course offers advanced research skills and knowledge to the candidate, which helps in continuing independent research after completing the course. This is the coursework phase of the PhD degree in Medicine, where knowledge on medicine application, research methodology, and other similar information is offered.

After this phase, the candidate needs to offer a project synopsis and independently conduct research on the topic.

The entire structure of the PhD in Medical Sciences contains a blend of classroom sessions and project completion. At the end of the course, you need to complete your thesis and finally progress towards becoming a researcher in the professional landscape.

Assessment and Exam

The crucial assessment factor of your PhD in Medical Sciences is your thesis. The thesis that you create defines your skills, aptitude, and understanding of the research specialty.

Some universities include an assessment of your thesis by external examiners. If your work is approved and your thesis is accepted, your PhD degree in Medicine concludes.

If you are struggling to map the difference between MD and PhD in Medicine, then read on. Check why PhD in Medicine can benefit your career:

The main difference that we can mark between MD and PhD in Medicine is the course structure. During your MD, you are trained for 2-3 years to pursue clinical practice. This means that as per your qualification, you become suitable for diagnosing patients and treating them.

PhD in Medicine in India trains you for research. This program is lab-based, and you can complete it in 3-5 years. During your PhD, you are more focused on research findings, such as biomedical assessments, pharmacology assessments, etc.

However, in both MD and PhD, you need to submit your thesis or proof of work.

Both MD and PhD in Medical Sciences impact your career growth, salary, field, and prospects. As already discussed, you would be more suitable in clinical job roles with an MD. So, you would be preferred in a hospital in your specialty. If you want to become a working doctor in the future, then MD can be a better choice for you.

On the other hand, a PhD leads you to research centers. You are more suitable for researching medicine. Your patient interaction may not be as much as in an MD.

Sometimes, a medical professional with an MD pursues a career in research. However, even these professionals tend to complete PhD later to offer credibility to their experience and work.

Academic Prestige

It is believed that both PhD and MD are equally prestigious qualifications. However, PhD is often given extra credibility, as the knowledge and experience delivered are thorough.

However, having said that, if a candidate does not want to enter research and pursue clinical job roles only, then PhD might not offer you any additional recognition. When you want to move to medical or clinical research, a PhD in Medicine can give you extra credit.

One of the most important questions for medical professionals is “ What salary will I get after a medical PhD?”

Here is an overview of PhD in Medicine salary:

Benefits of Pursuing PhD in Medicine Online

What are the benefits of an online PhD in Medicine in India?

We have already discussed almost everything about PhD in Medicine in India. One thing to be considered is an online PhD in Medicine. This digital course is affordable, feasible, and equally competent to your full-time degree. Let’s explore the benefits of an online PhD after an MS course:

Advisory Committee

By the time PhD students reach the fall semester of the second year, they select an advisory committee. The major advisor serves as the head of the committee. Together students and the major advisors select at least two to three associate advisors from the major department and a representative from the minor department. The graduate school reviews and approves the members of each student’s advisory committee, following submission of the Appointment of Advisory Committee form. The Advisory Committee counsels students in coursework and research activities, identifies any academic or research deficiencies, and suggests corrective measures for potential deficiencies. The advisory committee also makes recommendations for transfer of academic credits earned at another institution to the graduate school for approval and determines when students have satisfactorily completed the qualifying examination.

Research Committee

Research committees initiate research for student dissertations. They are approved by the dean and are required to meet at least twice a year. The committee has the responsibility of supervising the research, reading the dissertation and conducting the final examination.

The student chooses a professor who agrees to direct the dissertation, endorsed by the University Graduate School. In some instances, it might be important to include individuals from other departments or disciplines (i.e., a relevant MD) on the student’s committee. Committee members must also be members of the graduate faculty who are best qualified to assist the student in conducting the dissertation research. Members include the chosen director (serving as committee chairperson), two or more additional faculty members from the major department and a representative for each minor.

NIH pay rise for postdocs and PhD students could have US ripple effect

Amid a reckoning over poor job prospects and stagnating wages for early-career scientists, the US National Institutes of Health (NIH) said this week that it will raise the salaries of thousands of postdoctoral researchers and graduate students who receive a prestigious NIH research fellowship. The move could boost pay for other scientists as well, because academic institutions often follow guidelines set by the NIH.

Beginning immediately, postdocs who hold one of the agency’s Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Awards (NRSAs) will earn at least US$61,008 per year — an 8% increase and the largest year-over-year increase the NIH has implemented since 2017. Postdocs’ salaries, which are adjusted for years of experience, are capped at $74,088 per year. Graduate students’ yearly salaries will rise by $1,000, amounting to an annual salary of $28,224. The agency will also provide an extra $500 in subsidies for childcare and $200 for training-related expenses.

“This is a major step in the right direction and something that the majority will agree is widely needed to retain talent in the biomedical and academic research sectors,” says Francisca Acosta, a biomedical engineer and postdoc at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, who is herself funded through an NRSA.

Postdoc shortage

In 2022, the agency assembled a working group to advise it on how best to retain and cultivate postdoctoral talent , after reports that principal investigators were struggling to fill vacant postdoc positions . In December last year, the panel recommended a minimum salary of $70,000 for postdocs.

The NIH agreed that a salary increase is indeed needed for the more than 17,000 trainees covered by the NRSAs. But in its announcement, the agency acknowledged that the pay rise it has implemented falls short of the council’s recommendation. It cited its tight budget in recent years as a reason.

It added that “pending the availability of funds through future appropriations”, the agency would increase salaries to meet the recommended $70,000 target in the next three to five years.

The agency also suggested that NIH-funded institutions could supplement salaries in other ways. That presents a challenge, according to Sharona Gordon, a biophysicist at the University of Washington in Seattle, given that the NIH’s modular R01 grants — one of the main NIH research awards with which principal investigators fund their labs — have remained at $250,000 per year since they were introduced in 1998. Such grants cannot be used to supplement salaries, meaning that lab heads have to pull money from other sources to increase trainees’ pay.

Even scientists who approve of the NIH’s move say it could have unintended consequences. “For institutions such as ours, which mandate that the postdoc minimum salary be set to the NIH minimum, there are some concerns that this increase in personnel costs could be a barrier for labs based on funding levels,” Acosta says.

For some, the five-year timeline for the increase feels insufficient. Haroon Popal, a cognitive-science postdoc at the University of Maryland in College Park whose work is funded by the NIH, says that although he understands the pressures on the agency, the new salary will not be enough to support him as he assumes multiple caring responsibilities. Even with the boost, postdoc salaries in academia fall far short of what researchers could make in government, industry or non-profit positions.

“This is an issue of diversity and equity for me,” he says. “The new postdoc salary is not allowing people like me to be in academia, which is counter to the NIH’s, institutions’ and our scientific community’s goals of increased diversity.”
