We use some terms every day in our lives, but are completely unaware of their real meaning. In the same way, we often use abbreviations whose full form we do not know. There are times when we often use an English word but have no idea what its Hindi version is. Today we will talk about such an abbreviation – the Hindi word of which, as well as the full form, is not known to many. We are talking about the short form: PhD. Let’s learn more about this abbreviation today.

Recently, a social media user asked about the word on the online platform Quora. The user asked: What is PhD called in Hindi? You will start scratching your head when you hear this question because many people hardly know its full form, let alone the Hindi term.
In our country even today the number of Hindi speaking people is very high. Although people in cities have acquired a good knowledge of English by studying in English medium schools, there is no shortage of Hindi speakers. But Hindi speakers also don’t know many Hindi terms. However, some users in Quore gave the correct answer. The users said that PhD in Hindi is called Vidyavachaspati.
Now we come to the full form of PhD: it is Doctor of Philosophy. PhD is a type of doctorate and focuses on academics and research. It’s actually a doctoral research project. Generally, it takes about four to six years to complete a doctorate degree. It can be completed in less time only if a person has good management skills and can work hard with full dedication. After obtaining a doctorate, one can apply to become a professor. You can also work in the private sector or government.
