Masters to Phd programs

[Paramedic12]

I know I’m getting ahead of myself but are there any mba to phd programs? Specifically a PhD program that gives you credit for having a masters and only takes 2 years to complete?

A lot of PhD programs require a master's degree for admission. Starting after a master's instead of a bachelor's might shave off one or two years, which means you can expect to finish in three to five years instead of four to seven years. Two-year PhD programs are rare. You might find a DBA that is this short, but I suspect most are three or more years long.
