Hello Guys,

Please advice what is usually in M Phil? Is it the set course work? (I mean certian credit hours) Is it the research only? How to identify M Phil is complete?
In general, Is there a checklist to make sure that you are getting into a right PhD program? What to look for?

I would really appreciate your reponse?

Hello Forum,

I need to your help to understnad my situation? Please help?

Here's the scenario: I have attended school in USA and completed my MS Engineering. I am trying to find a school in UK to start PhD in Engineering. I received a response from university that i will be admitted in MPhil instead of PhD. My question is , I have Masters of Engineering already why I should go for another masters?
Is this the normal procedure, I tried to search on the forum but did not get the same situation like mine?
Please suggest should I go for Mphil or find another school which will take me directly in PhD. In USA ther is no MPhil required, I am confused please help!!
Looking forward you help. Thanks
