Hi,
I'm not sure I fully understand your question. If you're asking if you need a Ph.D. for a career in academics, I'd probably say yes. That said, it probably depends on where you live. For example, if there is a shortage of skilled Spanish instructors in India, you might see holders of master's degrees in academia. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Interesting... our 15-year plans are almost identical (just substitute German and Arabic for Italian).
But yea, I don't understand your question. Getting a Ph.D is a career choice, and has very little at all to do with your long term goals of language learning. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

If you just want to be an interpreter go for a masters, but if you want to be an academic and teach at a university, then you have to go for a Ph.D.
As for your language goals, I think that those in that amount of time is doable. 1 person has voted this message useful |
