IISER to offer PhD programs to foreign students in six subjects

IISER Pune is all set to launch Ph.D. programs in six different subjects for international students from the next academic year. The two-year doctoral research called i-PhD is one of a kind in the nation and will be offered in subjects like physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, earth and climate Sciences (ECS) and humanities and social sciences (HSS). Sharing details about the program with The Indian Express, Dean Doctoral Studies Girish Ratnaparkhi said, “We are keen to recruit talented students from abroad, give them an opportunity to undertake Ph.D. research in India, allow them to work in laboratories here where they can attempt to solve important research problems. The program aims to raise the profile of our institute internationally and hosting international students is part of the process. We believe that recruiting international students will also add value to the existing Ph.D. program, making it healthier and stronger.” Pune is a hub of education and with this move, IISER will bring in more international students to the city. The first four semesters will focus on the core subjects along with the research work which will then be followed by the doctoral research. Upon completing the course successfully, candidates will be granted the Master of Science and a Ph.D.“All present IISER faculties will be available as research guides for the international students. The student intake numbers will be based on the institution rather than on any departmental limits,” he said.
