Ph.D. Programme
in Botany
The field of botany is very diverse, with branches in microbiology, horticulture, economic botany, plant anatomists, physiologists and molecular biologists. Botany is the study of plants and their properties. It is an important part of biology, which provides information about plant growth in various climates. The doctoral degree in botany is the highest level of education in plant science. It is designed for scholars who want to learn more about plant behavior, evolutionary trends, and species. The program requires rigorous training in the fields of quantitative and qualitative data analysis, critical thinking, and data-handling techniques. A Ph.D. in this field can lead to a lucrative career in the public and private sectors. These graduates are in demand in local, state, and national organizations, and can be employed in a number of fields such as molecular biology, plant physiology, microbiology, forensic science, forests, etc

In particular, RGU doctoral programme aims to train the researchers who extend the boundaries of current knowledge and are also able to create new knowledge, are adept in the use of traditional methodologies and latest tools and build on these to develop new techniques to answer questions that transcend disciplinary boundaries, can communicate clearly and effectively to the expert and the public at large the insights gleaned from the research, can apply the skills and knowledge in practical contexts.
RGU aspires to be recognized for the quality and impact of its research output on the current state of knowledge. Towards this goal, it will strive to provide an environment where cutting-edge research is done by a community of scholars where the focus is placed on conceptual clarity and the utilization and development of new methodologies that are employed not only to illuminate the issue under study but also in a wide range of contexts. Ph.D. scholars will work, through collaborations and joint projects, on real-world issues in close association with outside organizations/industries and apply appropriate and innovative methodologies to address their problems.
The structure of the Ph.D. programme includes a mandatory coursework and candidates are encouraged to take up a wide variety of courses to cultivate a cross-disciplinary outlook. The topic of research is expected to be inter-disciplinary with emphasis on practical impact that is inspired by real world problems or sponsored by industry. The output is expected to address a gap or add something new to the existing corpus of literature. A Ph.D. scholar is not only preparing to be a researcher but also a teacher as teaching is integral to effective learning.
With the spirit of liberal inquiry governing every aspect of academic life, accomplished faculty, emphasis on work-life balance, a close and supportive environment, and access to world-class facilities, being a research scholar at RGU will be an enriching, and productive experience.
