PhD

MHRD PhD students may decide the supervisor at the time of joining or by the end of first semester. For a research project-funded position, the faculty executing that research project himself/herself will be the guide.
Phd students have to maintain a minimum CGPA of 7 from their course work.
PhD studnets are required to give a comprehensive exam within 12 months of joining (maximum 2 chances to pass comprehensive exam).
After passing the comprehensive exam, the student has to present the research proposal seminar (RPS) within 3 months. RPS for regular and direct PhD students should be within 18 months of registration.
The guide will constitute a Doctoral Committee (DC), and DC would conduct regular meetings to evaluate the progress of the work.
Following syllabus holds for part time PhD as well
