New Delhi: The Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology (IIIT-D) has
joined hands with Australia's Queensland University of Technology
(QUT) for a collaborative PhD programme.
The joint PhD programme, an effort by the Delhi government created
automomous institution to promote cooperative educational
exchanges, will be offered in areas like Cryptography and Control
Theory and Robotics.
"Under the programme, the two institutions will jointly develop a
system of academic exchanges that will allow a doctoral student to
perform coordinated research studies at both institutions," said
Director of IIIT-Delhi Professor Pankaj Jalote.
A PhD student in the programme will spend the first year at the
IIIT-Delhi and then continue his/her work at the QUT for one and a
half years. The student then returns to the IIIT-Delhi to complete
the PhD. There may be additional visits involved.
"The PhD student will be jointly guided by supervisors from both
institutions with the aim of obtaining PhD by satisfying the
requirements and quality standards for the degree of each
institution. Successful candidates will be eligible for a joint
PhD award that names both institutions," Jalote said.
The joint PhD student will be supported financially by a
scholarship, stipend or grant from the institutions, or from a
third party. The stipend will be commensurate with the standards
followed in each institution. Travel costs incurred by the student
will also be covered.
This year, the joint programme will commence in August under which
two seats will be available, with areas of interest being
identified as Cryptography, Control Theory and Robotics, and
Linked Data Analysis.
