PROGRAMME STRUCTURE
The programme is offered in the following two modes:

  • Residential programme

  • Non-residential programme

Students under residential programme will be required to be present physically on campus through out the programme. The programme is divided into two phases. The first phase of two years requires the scholar to undertake course work. Students who have completed their MBA/PGDM will be granted an exemption for the first year of course work. These students will be required to undertake only one year of course work. On completion of the course work, the students will be required to take a Comprehensive Examination (CE). The CE is based on a scholar’s chosen area of interest. The purpose of CE is to provide scholars with an opportunity to identify their area of research interest and build sound background knowledge for their dissertations. During the second phase, scholars are expected to work on their doctoral thesis. The award of FPM at the end of the second phase requires the scholar to prepare a thesis proposal, pursue research based on the approved proposal under the guidance of the faculty supervisor, and finally, defend the thesis before the research committee.
COURSE STRUCTURE & CURRICULUM
The student will be required to take four electives from his/her area of specialization. Instead of opting for an elective course in the area, a student can also work on a Course of Independent Study (CIS) under a faculty member. If a student decides to work on the CIS, the same will be considered an elective course. The students will be required to prepare the seminar paper and the paper based on the review of literature as a part of their coursework. These papers would be presented in the in-house monthly research seminar and should be of publishable quality. The student is required to appear for the Comprehensive Exam (CE) at the end of the course, and on successful completion, they will commence work on their thesis.
