Default Filter or Lookup Formula to Organize Keywords

I am coming up with a simple keyword distinguishing two categories of keywords for me to present to my client. Can anyone help me the formula to come up with just the keyword lists containing “Doctor” in the Doctor column and “Professor” in the Professor column?

Maybe a single column (and formula) will do?

Code:
=IF(
     IFERROR(1*(FIND("doctor",$A2)>0),0)+IFERROR(2*(FIND("professor",$A2)>0),0)=0;
     "",
     INDEX(
          {"doctor";"professor";"doctor and professor"},
          IFERROR(1*(FIND("doctor",$A2)>0),0)+IFERROR(2*(FIND("professor",$A2)>0),0)
     )
)

Thanks for the formula. This works on a singular column, but need to distinguish those keywords with a "doctor" and "professor" in it.

The formula returns either "doctor", "professor", or "doctor and professor". You set the autofilter for table on - you always can get a list of entries having "doctor" in them by setting the filter for formula column to "doctor" and "doctor and professor", or a list of entries having "professor" in them by setting the filter for formula column to "professor" and "doctor and professor", etc.

Thanks for this. But, the formula only identifies which cell has the word “doctor” and/or “professor”.

Thanks for the reply, Arvi. Can you attach your version of the worksheet so I can see and reference to?

Here you have two variants of formula (for the second one I defined a Table and used Table Formula syntax)

Thanks for the Arvi. I checked and it worked to filter those keywords with a "doctor" or "professor" on it. Very helpful of you. Thanks again.
