Doctoral Programme

As an emerging hub of education of the country, the spirit of inter-and multi-disciplinarity permeates every aspect of academics at RGU. The doctoral programme at RGU seeks to develop the next generation of academics who can approach issues from multiple perspectives, glean unique insights, and provide effective solutions to pressing problems of academic and practical interest. RGU Ph.D. Programme carries a strong emphasis on foundational knowledge, academic research, and hands-on experiences with real-world challenges. RGU envisions a future where researchers combine curiosity based intellectual pursuits with a strong commitment to solving complex problems with societal impact. However, the university is an ecosystem that creates opportunities for students based on their interests.

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’s APPROACH

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.

COURSE WORK: Ph.D. students are required to successfully complete a 12-credit course load during their first two semesters. This coursework includes two compulsory courses: one on Research Methodology and another on Research and Publication Ethics. Additionally, students must take a subject-specific course prescribed by their respective Student Research Committee (SRC) and Departmental Research Committee (DRC). To ensure continued eligibility in the Ph.D. program, students must achieve a minimum grade of 55% or its equivalent on a 10-point scale in each course. Beyond formal coursework, Ph.D. students are also expected to participate in various training programs organized by their department. These programs focus on essential skills such as pedagogy, research report writing, and paper writing. Furthermore, students may be assigned teaching responsibilities for specific periods, as determined by their guide and communicated to the DRC.

Ph.D. PROGRAM: At the end of each semester, the Departmental Research Committee (DRC) assesses the progress of a Ph.D. student's research work. If the work is satisfactory, the student is recommended to proceed to the next semester. If the progress is unsatisfactory for two consecutive semesters, the DRC suggests corrective measures. If the student fails to implement these measures, the DRC may recommend the cancellation of the student's registration to the University Research Committee (URC). Upon completing the research work, the DRC evaluates the entire progress and may recommend the student for Pre-Thesis Submission, where the student presents their research in a seminar before the DRC. The student must fulfil requirements such as publishing at least one research article in a peer-reviewed, SCOPUS indexed or UGC CARE listed journal and presenting their research at two national or international conferences/seminars. After meeting these requirements, the student submits an abstract of their research, approximately 1500 words, in eight copies in both hard and soft forms to the DRC within two months of the successful Pre-Thesis Submission Seminar. If the DRC approves the abstract, it is forwarded to the URC for approval. Before final submission, the draft thesis must undergo a plagiarism check at the university's central library, ensuring content similarity does not exceed 10%, in accordance with UGC regulations[The Section 8 (i-iv) of the UGC (Promotion of academic Integrity and Prevention of Plagiarism in higher education institutions) regulations, 2018, F.I-18/2010 (CPP-II, Dared 23rd July 2018)]. Any violations are reported to the University Academic Integrity Maintenance Committee. On the recommendation of the DRC, Ph.D. students are requiredto submit three printed copies (four if a Co-Guide is involved) initially in spiral-bound format, accompanied by a soft copy to the Controller of Examinations. Each thesis must undergo rigorous scrutiny for plagiarism, certified by university authorities. The Ph.D. Guide and any Co-Guide must attest to the originality of the work and confirm it has not been submitted elsewhere for another degree. Submission must occur within three months of DRC's approval of the thesis abstract. The thesis is to be written in the English language in accordance with the University Guidelines for writing a Ph.D. Thesis. Following submission, a panel of five external examiners, chosen by the Vice Chancellor, assesses the thesis. These examiners, appointed based on their expertise in relevant fields, are required to submit detailed reports within six weeks, with an option for extension in justified cases. Evaluation outcomes include acceptance for the Ph.D. degree, acceptance pending minor modifications, revision and resubmission, or outright rejection. Successful candidates proceed to an Oral Defence Examination, ideally scheduled within a month of examiner approval, where they present and defend their research before the Oral Defence Examination Committee (ODEC). Upon favourable recommendation by the ODEC, the Vice Chancellor oversees the final steps leading to the awarding of the Ph.D. degree, subject to ratification by the Academic Council and Board of Management.
