Students are usually required to hold a Master's Degree with high academic standing to be considered for a PhD program but often universities admit applicants to these programs on a case-by-case basis. Boys and girls interested becoming men and women with a career as teacher or lecturer tipically decide to start these paths since professors are increasingly being required to have a PhD. The duration of the PhD or Doctor of Philosophy is generally of three academic years but there are programs lasting up to five years.
