Key facts

While a PhD Scholar pursues their course work, they will be matched with an advisor based primarily on mutual research interests. We also believe that it's vital for advisors and students to work as peers, and if desired, a student can work with more than one faculty member during their time in IIT Guwahati.

The PhD Scholars have the option to receive financial support as stipend from the Ministry of Education, India or Project Funding from their Advisors or different PhD Fellowships awarded by the Institute, while in good academic standing. Further, we also have sponsored, part-time, external and self-financed options for pursuing a PhD. You can find more information here.
