IIT Goa - Ph.D.

Remarks :

Goa is itself India's favorite destination and studying in this state is the best part of my life. The research facility at this institute is very well known. Institute only accepts online application forms for the concerned course along with the payment of the application fee. A student needs to have a valid GATE score/ JRF score in the desired field and a masters' degree with a minimum of 60% to become eligible for a Ph.D.

Course Curriculum Overview :

In the first year, we studied the theory part of the research. What all methods we will be required in conducting our research and the literature review. My guide assisted me a lot throughout my research work and formulating the research proposal. I conducted some fieldwork as well to support my research. Currently, I have submitted my thesis on the research topic and waiting for it to be approved.

Placement Experience :

I didn't sit for placements as I wanted to go for the post of Assistant professor here at the institute itself. In 2020, the highest CTC was recorded as Rs. 43 LPA, and a total of 121 companies participated in the placements. 87% of the students got placed in the general placements. Microsoft, Paytm, Reliance Jio, KPMG, L&T, LTTS, ARM, Intel, and VMware were the top recruiters of the placement week.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

Scholarships are provided to the students who need one since Rs.71000 can be a big amount for some students. Central Sector Scholarship Scheme for Top Class Education for SC students, Merit Cum Means Scholarship are the only two provided by the institute. The rest of the scholarships can be availed from the state government and central government as well for the minority sections of the society.

Campus Life :

Life in Goa is very much happening and the same goes for campus life. Although, Ph.D. students find very little time after their research for leisure. The events organized at the campus are filled with fun and excitement. My group also went clubbing at night and we enjoyed it a lot. Amenities in the classroom and the infrastructure of the campus are top-notch. Labs are equipped with the latest equipment.

Remarks:

Since, I was working as a project assistant in National Institute of Oceanography (NIO), Goa in 2013. I always wanted to register a PhD under my guide Dr. Pawan Dewangan (Principal scientist), who is in NIO. I qualified GATE in 2015 with a decent score and I was allowed to register for a PhD in Marine science department of Goa University. I decided to register in Goa University primarily because it was near to the place where I was working, also it is one of the finest and reputed universities in Goa. The campus is beautiful and well maintained and located near several beaches. Apart from this the administrative process is very smooth unlike other state universities. I never faced any difficulty to carry out the formalities, the concerned people are very helping and kind. The marine science department produces several PhD's each year and faculties are also reputed.
