Can you get two PhDs simultaneously?
Pursue Two PhDs Simultaneously In some cases, it is possible to complete similar coursework for multiple PhDs at the same time. Christopher Wells pursued two related PhDs simultaneously.
Can you get a PhD in math and physics?
Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.) in Mathematical Physics. This program offers advanced graduate training in the overlapping areas of mathematics, theoretical physics, and their applications from a unified point of view and promotes research in this field.
Can you finish a physics PhD in 4 years?
Yes, you can finish a PhD in 4 years, but that depends on the field you are working in and your university. If you want to, you can enroll in another career, in another master’s degree and even do another doctoral thesis.
Can you get a PhD in physics in 2 years?
Lots of years using Physics to solve problems. In the United States, it usually takes 2 years after a Bachelor’s degree to get a Master’s degree. Then, another 3 years to get a PhD. It can take longer if there are problems with the research or writing the dissertation.

Can you do multiple PhD programs at the same time?
If you’re going into another field where you want to do research, you may get credit for the research courses you took in your previous program. However, there is usually a 5-10 year limit on this. In some cases, it is possible to complete similar coursework for multiple PhDs at the same time.
Is it worth it to get a second PhD?
Getting the second PhD is unlikely to be directly helpful once you have it, let alone worth the sacrifice of 4-6 years of your life! Added: By the way, when you mention “mathematics” and “electrical engineering”: I think of Raoul Bott, a brilliant and beloved professor whose long career at Harvard ended while I was studying there.
How do I decide between a PhD or an EE degree?
By the time you finish your current degree, you’ll have a better idea of what specific area (i.e., subfield) of research you are most interested in (if you still want to do a PhD at that point). Then, decide whether it would be more at home in a mathematics or EE department, and apply to grad school accordingly.
Is there a dual PhD program at CMU-map(I)?
Yes. I am a PhD candidate in the CMU-MAP (i) dual PhD program under the aegis of the Carengie Mellon’s partnership program with Portuguese universities with my doctoral degrees being in ECE and Computer Sciences (Informatics) respectively. Note that you are issued two disparate doctoral diplomas unlike in similar joint-PhD programs.
