Ph.D Biology

Hi,Yes, you can go for it.B.Sc. (Hons.) Biochemistry is a three-year undergraduate programme with a specialisation in the inter-disciplinary domain of biochemistry. The minimum eligibility criterion which most of the institutes ask for is a score of at least 50% (relaxable for reserved category candidates) at 10+2 or equivalent level.B.Sc (Hons.) Biochemistry course admission is based on entrance exam namely Common Entrance Test (CET) including the selection method as well as merit-based selection criterion that is the percentage of marks obtained at 10+2 or equivalent level by the candidate. Colleges and Institutes which provide admission through CET mechanism rely on the score of all-India level common entrance exams like, CG PAT, NET, etc. while some of them opt for a separate entrance exam of their own (like GB Pant University, GSAT, etc.).The Cancer Biology and Cancer Stem Cells Program is focused on investigating the mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in the development and progression of cancer, including pathways critical for self-renewal of stem cells, in normal tissues and in cancer. The goals are to advance basic understanding of cancer pathogenesis and to facilitate the translation of basic Science discoveries into the clinical arena in order to improve the outcomes of patients with cancer.

Hi,
The admission process for Ph.D. in Life Science programme may vary from college to college. While the admissions in the August month are open to all qualified categories of competitors. Admission is offered on the basis of an interview held typically a month prior to the starting of the semester for which admission is looked for. The interview can be supplemented by an entrance exam, if necessary. Following are a few entrance tests that are conducted by some of the Ph.D. in Life Science colleges in India:
JNU Ph.D. Entrance
