The
Institute has a
full-time Ph.D.
programme for
students
and as well as teaching
scholars. The emphasis
of the programme is not
on the number of
candidates admitted but
on the quality of work.
As a result of this, and
the facilities (albeit
limited), freedom and
flexibility which the
students enjoy, the
doctoral theses of the
Institute have won
recognition for their
quality, rigour, and
originality. Some of
them have been revised
and published as books,
while material from
quite a few others has
been revised and
published in scholarly
journals.
At present three
different categories are
available for the
doctoral programme:
1.
ICSSR Doctoral
Fellowships
2.
RBI Doctoral Fellowships
3.
Malcolm and Elizabeth
Adiseshiah Ph.D. Merit
Scholarship
Selection Procedure: The
selection is on the
basis of qualifications,
research proposal (not
exceeding 750 words) and
personal interview.
