SAHE University Ph.D Mathematics: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. The Department of Mathematics at SAHE University offers doctoral research in four primary areas: Bio-mathematics, Differential Equations, Mathematical Theory of Control, and Operations Research. The coursework syllabus reflects these areas with subjects such as Advanced Topics in Algebra, Numerical Methods, Special Functions, Boundary Value Problems, Fuzzy Algebra, Semi Groups, Fluid Dynamics, Fluid Mechanics, and Differential Equations. Candidates are advised to contact the PhD Coordinator at phdcoordinator@vrsiddhartha.ac.in or call 8121638666 to confirm the availability of a research supervisor in their specific area of interest before applying.

Ans. Yes, the Part Time category is specifically designed for working professionals including faculty members in educational institutions. Lecturers and assistant professors working in colleges or universities can enrol in the Part Time PhD programme without leaving their current job. Sponsored candidates whose employers support their doctoral research are also eligible. Part Time scholars must fulfil the university's coursework and research norms while managing their professional commitments. However, they are not eligible for the university's internal fellowship of Rs. 35,000/month, which is reserved for Full Time scholars.

Ans. Admissions for the 2026-27 session are currently open. The registration process commenced on 12th March 2026, and the last date to apply is 10th May 2026. The written examination (SRCAT) is scheduled for 24th May 2026, followed by interviews on 7th June 2026. Shortlisted candidates will be notified on 15th June 2026, and the programme is set to commence on 22nd June 2026. Candidates can apply online at https://admissions.siddhartha.edu.in/.

Ans. Yes, a valid score in CSIR-UGC NET (Mathematical Sciences) exempts candidates from appearing in SRCAT (Siddhartha Research Common Admission Test). Similarly, valid scores in APSET or APRCET also provide exemption from SRCAT. However, even with a valid CSIR-NET/APSET/APRCET score, candidates must appear for the personal interview conducted by the university's Doctoral Committee. The interview is a mandatory step in the selection process regardless of SRCAT exemption.

Ans. The PhD coursework requires a minimum of 12 credits and a maximum of 16 credits. The coursework for Mathematics includes Research Methodology (common for all disciplines) and subject-specific elective courses from two pools. Pool I includes Advanced Topics in Algebra, Numerical Methods, Special Functions, Boundary Value Problems, and NPTEL courses on Advanced Linear Algebra, Numerical Linear Algebra, and Numerical Analysis. Pool II includes Fuzzy Algebra, Semi Groups, Fluid Dynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Differential Equations, and NPTEL courses on Computational Fluid Dynamics and Ordinary and Partial Differential Equations. The coursework syllabus can be downloaded from www.vrsiddhartha.ac.in/ph-d-programmes/.

Ans. Both Full Time and Part Time PhD scholars at SAHE University follow the same minimum duration of 2 years (excluding coursework) and maximum of 6 years, with thesis submission permitted only after 3 years from registration. The key difference is that Part Time scholars are not eligible for the university's monthly fellowship of Rs. 35,000, which is exclusively for Full Time scholars. Part Time scholars are also expected to manage their research alongside their professional commitments, which typically means the actual completion time is longer. Both categories follow the same coursework structure (minimum 12 credits, maximum 16 credits) and the same thesis evaluation process.
