Remarks
Institutes like the Indian Institute of Horticultural Research were started with the explicit purpose of facilitating quality research in their fields of specialization, and IIHR has done its job brilliantly. I am really proud to be a part of it.
Course Curriculum Overview
The course curriculum gives you flexibility to carry out the intended research but you have to submit regular reports and keep the faculty informed of your progress. You are also expected to write research articles and attend workshops.
Placement Experience
The institute is not a regular institute, and does not have any placement cells. There are regular calls for applications for various ongoing and flagship research programs, and you can apply to them.
Fee Structure And Facilities
Fee is applicable to the Masters of Science program started in the session 2014-15. The PhD students receive fellowship provided per month as per the institute's policy and the GoI and UGC guidelines.
Campus Life
Extracurricular activities are almost absent apart from the seminars, guest lectures, workshops and field visits. The laboratory is equipped with the latest tests and appliances to promote quality research. The library is well-stocked and fully-functional.
Admission
The admission is a two step process, first you have to apply online and take the written test. If you pass the written test, you will be called for an interview. On completion of the interview, the results will be announced online. If selected, you will be admitted into the program.
Faculty
The faculty is illustrious and diligent and dedicated to their work. They are approachable, and once you have established your intent and determination, will go out of their way to help you in any research project that you are currently working on.
