Which country are you in now? It's very difficult to work full time whilst doing a MSc or PhD. How would you fund your studies?

Dear Friends,
For doing a PhD (Aero) in the US, I got positive response from a few universities. I am 32 now (Single). I am planning to get married in between PhD.

Is it possible to work a Full time PhD with part time job (in industry)?. I have 5 years R& D work experience. I think Its possible. For that, I have to convince my supervisor as well as the University.

As a single, there no financial difficulties (Univ. PhD stipend is more than sufficient), but once married, I have to earn money for survival along with spouse.

Any Advice and suggestions will be greatly respected.

My university said students were only allowed to do an average of 1 day's work outside work per week if they were doing a ft PhD.

Will your spouse be working?
