Post PhD by Publications

A higher doctorate such as D.Sc. (Doctor of Science) or D.Litt. (Doctor of Literature) is awarded to scholars who have made sustained and original contributions to their field after earning a PhD. This academic distinction recognizes long-term research, published work, and domain expertise.

Eligibility typically depends on the quality, quantity, and impact of post-doctoral publications. Structured opportunities for such awards exist in select institutions under defined academic criteria.
