His article here is lol max..!! wat do he think of a PhD degree..?? India isn't developing scientifically due to thz false suggestions or advices... Shud a nobel laureate also get retired(he is also a PhD)?? Once they get tht prize...most of them sacrificed their lives for humanity and upgradation of the generation...
@Krishna Reddy I hv recently attended a seminar taken by two professors from oxford university of science...they told tht a guy doin Btech from IIT can directly enter into PhD program widout doin masters...they also said tht btech degree here in iit is of much higher standard than their masters...so get sum grains b4 spilling them out...u brainless moron..
Idiotic columns like this should not find a place here. It has become very clear that rediff is not getting GOOD ARTICLES from GOOD SCHOLARS. Dear Mr. Guest, KINDLY RECOMMEND Validity Periods for all courses starting from Pre KG.

yes GR you are correct, let us start from pre-KG.this would be nice, so everybody can be in school until death. (so the teacher can learn from the student!!!) let us experiment this, from the same authors who wrote this column.
The best thing will be to join politics, get elected and that to without any requsite educational degree. Hence no question of renewing!! Then set the rule for all and sundry so that they have to renew their qualification before expiry of the same!!!
It is easy to say to put an expire date on qualifications; but it is a wrong way.. It takes years to get such a great qualification especially in this stiff competition. It takes tears of eyes and hunger of starving people to get such education. More over gold is always gold; only polishing is needed. And this polishing can be done through providing abundant opportunities so that a student of life is able to do exactly what he is supposed to do for the benefit of mankind.....
To begin with all doctors (MBBS, MD, etc) should undergo a compulsory re-examination every 5 years as they are working with the most precious thing on earth - Human Life.
This will also help the government to keep a check on quacks.
Hope some one from the Education Board reads this!

Quality of Education attained by Krishna Reddy is very poor...Iam not saying this, he himself proved by quoting his comments.
Moron- the college syallabus of western countries are equivalent to our school syallabus.
But I do agree if you say that there infrastructure is good and our's is not.

My daughter and family moved to U.S.(Chicago) an year and half ago. Her daughter earned U.S. President's award for Academic Excellence due to her performance in the American school in fifth standard. It was due the sound education in her previous school at Hyderabad. I proudly have a copy of that Certificate with signatures of Mr. Bush. Indian schooling is great.Dinesh Chandra

It seems you have a PhD that is why you are pissed off. cool down man, India has freedom of speech...people write what they want, why bother/
I hope the writer has obtained the degree without any labour or expenditure of his resource. To obtain a PhD degree how much labour, time and resource one puts he might not know. Just ask those people who are continuing the degree or their research work or otherwise do it yourself. After having that experience you would forget writing anything blunder like this. Otherwise visit any IITs/ IISc or any other national research organizations and feel the experience of research scholars and then write. And also I think your professors must retire first and your higher authority who have higher education must retire so that your next generation would be handicap in education and in job as well. Then only you would realise why PhDs do not have an expiry date.
By the way, I think this fellow has gone mad completely and also frustrated. First of all have personal realisation about something about which you are writing...........
RE:Why PhD only not MSc/MTech, BSc/BTech and all education
by Kittappa on Jan 18, 2008 07:17 PM Permalink
While I agree with many of the other things...the quality of IIT/IISc is dubious when it comes to research. I have studied there...it is good only for BTech/Mtech at the most. (Not all but a many professors are extremely lazy and they just publish in third rated conferences and journals just for the heck of it
