Remarks
The college is well-acclaimed and celebrated in the field of research and programs related to it. It is one of the best institutes in India that gives the students a great opportunity in their preferred field to pursue it.
Course Curriculum Overview
All the Ph.D students are trained under a program which consists of course work, consisting of lectures, tutorials, laboratory sessions, demonstrations and project work. We had written and oral examinations.
Placement Experience
The students go on to pursue academic careers in India and abroad mainly with Ph.D positions. The students even opt to start working as faculty members in scientific institutions in India and abroad. Rarely do they opt for a non academic career. The institute also has summer internships and fellowship programs.
College Events
Since we had students from all cultures and backgrounds, the college celebrates all sort of festivals and days on campus. There are also science fests, seminars and workshops, etc. hosted by the students and teachers.
Fee Structure And Facilities
The college fee is quite nominal for such an advanced and revolutionary college. The college aims to generate the best of researchers in the country and with all the facilities that they offer, they are only charging around INR 6000 a year, for 5 years.
Campus Life
The college has state of the art facilities in the area of specialization, for the research programs. The library consists of all books necessary for one's thesis submission and investigation. There are campus parties for the students.
Hostel Facilities
The hostel accommodation is very congenial and secure for the students. It is well furnished and has double occupancy rooms. The student can even choose for single occupancy but that charges more. They have been provided with 24-hour water and electricity supply.
Admission
The selection is rigidly on the basis of merit. The college conducts a a written test which one needs to qualify. After which, there is an interview that I had to sit for. Only the top qualifying candidates get admission in the college post selection.
Faculty
Ph.D. students are involved by their research supervisors in advanced research programs. The faculty aims to stimulate creativity and a passion for careful and rigorous investigation in the students. Once the research work is completed, we had to submit a synopsis of the work done to a committee of five TIFR faculty members for assessment.
