Interesting. Where are you looking at getting a PhD in a DB-related field? For that matter if you don't mind me asking, is your Master's degree DB related?

The literature survey is a critical component of any research-related degree. Once you've read sufficiently about what is currently being done, then you should be able to spot a hole in the research for you to make a contribution in. Be sure to spend time discussing potential topics with your supervisor, they will know far better than we will what's acceptable.

Well, he did say he wanted a Phd in database administration, not SQL Server specifically. But yes, this is a SQL Server forum and yes, the MS certifications are the official global standard for SQL Server education.

However, I don't know him, his skills, his plans or his thoughts, so I'm not going to insist on anything - except possibly that we all take note of how the GilaMonster once again demonstrates her ability to cut straight to the core of the matter and say something useful about exactly that in just a couple of lines.
