The process for Ph.D. admissions in CRNTS

PhD topics in CRNTS are floated by various faculty members across the Institute and the faculty specifies the Departments under which the topic is to be listed. Subsequently, the Departments recommend candidates to CRNTS based on performance in the written test/interview. Only students interested in CRNTS Ph.D. topics are considered. The final merit list is based on subsequent interviews held in CRNTS.
