When you complete a PhD, especially from a recognised university such as DY Patil PhD College in Pune , you would have a deep understanding of research issues; you would have made efforts to solve various research related problems, and more. Furthermore, you would have solved various complicated problems, dedicated long hours to work on your research and dissertation, and handled frustrating situations as well.
