Doctoral Programme Overview

banner
Geared for All-Round Development

Introduction

Our Ph.D. programme’s preferred input are students who have completed one of their higher degrees with us. Each student must qualify for formal acceptance in the programme after passing an examination. We also offers a unique opportunity for professionals at large to work towards their Ph.D. in the settings of their work environments through Off-campus schemes.

  • On Campus Ph.D

    The doctoral thesis is an integral component of the Ph.D. degree programme. It carries a minimum of 40 units to be usually collected in four semesters. Ph.D. students can register for the Thesis course only after passing the Qualifying Examination and after approval of their topic of research and supervisor by the Research Board. 

    We offer aspiring doctorates the flexibility to pursue the thesis either campus or at Practice School Centres and in certain circumstances even at other specific centres.

As part of this thrust, we are glad to bring a unique opportunity for experienced personnel and professionals of high standing and proven competence engaged in various industries, R&D organisations. This option gives professionals the flexibility to work towards their Ph.D. degree in the settings of their respective work environments.
