Ph.D

Dear Tirumala,
I am not aware whether IIIT Hyderabad offers a part-time Ph.D. in Computer Science or not. But being alumni of LPU, I can assure you that LPU offers this programme.
LPU is one of the best universities to do Ph.D. to enhance your knowledge in the research area.
Let me share something about the Ph.D. program at LPU.
Eligibility: You should have a minimum of 55% marks in your master's degree in a relevant subject. After that, you have to qualify for the LPUNEST exam if you have not qualified for a national level test such as GATE, UGC NET, CSIR, GPAT, etc. The entrance will have 70% weightage in selection. After that, you have to appear for an interview and qualify for the same and have 30% weightage for the final selection.
You may avail of scholarships also on the basis of LPUNEST or National Level Test.
There is a special scholarship for female students to pursue a full-time or part-time Ph.D. at LPU.
The highlight of the program is the Flexi-Course Work option specially designed to accommodate professionals wherein a student can choose the best-suited option to complete the course work.
