Candidate must have a Master’s degree in Engineering/Technology/Management (with engineering background)/Applied Sciences (Physics, Mathematics, Electronics, Industrial Mathematics) or any other equivalent qualification recognized by the Institute with a minimum of 65% marks or CGPA of 7.00 on a 10 point scale in qualifying degree. Additionally, the candidates must have qualified the GATE/NET exam. The candidates having high rank in National Level Fellowship examinations such as CAT or equivalent are also eligible to apply.The requirement for GATE can be exempted for the candidates having both the Master’s degree and B.Tech from Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTIs) with CPI 8.0 or above at B.Tech level. Exceptionally good candidates having the bachelor degree from CFTI with CPI 8.0 or above may also be considered for the Ph.D admission. In addition to the above mentioned criteria, the candidates should also fullfill the discipline specific criteria given below: 

• For Engineering: Candidates must have a M.Tech/ M.S./ M.E. or equivalent degree in CSE (Computer Science and Engineering)/IT (Information Technology)/ECE (Electronics and Communication Engineering)/EEE (Electrical & Electronics Engineering) with first division at undergraduate (B.E./B.Tech) level.
• For Management: Candidates must have Master’s degree in Engineering/ Technology/Management (with engineering background) with first division at undergraduate (B.E./B.Tech)level.
• For Applied Sciences:Candidates must have Master’s degree in Physics/Mathematics/or branch related to Physics/Mathematics with first division at undergraduate level. 

• For Sponsored Project Employee:Any employee working under the sponsored project at ABV-IIITM Gwalior may also apply for the Ph.D. programme under the supervision of corresponding project investigator(s)subjected to the availability of funding for approximately two years after the date of selection.  The candidate(s) fulfilling the eligibility criteria for Ph.D. admission and recommended by the concerned PI can apply for the Ph.D. programme at any time, the selection will be done by a committee duly constituted by competent authority. The selected candidate(s)will not get any financial support from the institute during the entire Ph.D. programme. In case of the project completion, the candidate may continue his/her research work under the same supervisor. However, the supervisor may support the candidate from other project funding or candidate may continue the programme as self-sponsored or request to convert his/her Ph.D. form full time to part time programme.
• In all the above cases, the relaxation for reserved categories (SC/ST/OBC/PwD/EWS) will be given as per GoI norms.

 

• Eligibility Criteria for Part-Time Ph.D.Programme:In order to facilitate industry-institute interaction, the Institute invites applications from professionals working in reputed industries for admission to Part-Time Ph.D. Programme in the areas specified below. Candidates working in emerging industry related research in connection to the research areas mentioned below are encouraged to apply. The minimum eligibility criteria for admission to Part-Time Ph.D. programme are as follows:
• Candidate must have a Master’s degree in Engineering/Technology/Management (with engineering background)/Applied Sciences (Physics, Mathematics, Electronics, Industrial Mathematics) or any other equivalent qualification recognized by the institute with a minimum of 65% marks or CGPA of 7.00 on a 10 point scale in qualifying degree.
• The applicants must have a minimum of two (02) years of experience in relevant area along with the discipline specific criteria. However, the minimum PG qualification would be relaxed to UG qualification (only for B.E/B.Tech background) for persons working with the industry and having a minimum of five (05) years of relevant experience. Moreover, while applying, the candidate has to take NOC from the current organization.
