can I get phd in computer field?

Question

I am computer engineer and I plan to get master in economics, after I finish the master can I get phd in computer field?

Answer 1

That depends on what school you want to apply to and in what country. A lot of schools will let you go for a PhD even if you don't have a masters in the same subject. But some schools won't. I think you should contact the schools that you have in mind and ask them what they need. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

What you plan to get your masters in is a completely separate and non-related field to what you want with the doctorate.

Now there are some schools that would give you credit for your professional experience, but without an IT related masters, I don't honestly think you'll be accepted into a Ph.D. program.

It's like my getting a Bachelors in education and then pursuing a Masters in computers. I don't have the fundamental classes, so I would have to make up quite a bit. Some schools might allow you to make up limited parts, but if there's a lot to make up, then generally don't accept you.

Answer 3

Normally you wud be required a masters in Computers before you get a PhD.
