Mechanical Engineering Doctoral Program (Ph.D.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Excellent laboratory facilities, the library and the computer centre form an ideal research environment for dedicated research students. At present graduate studies are conducted primarily in two disciplines: Thermal and Fluid Science, and Mechanics and Design.

Admission Requirements

For the Ph.D. program the standard academic entry requirement is a minimum CGPA of 2.75/4.0 (or international equivalent) obtained from a related science or engineering undergraduate discipline. The applicant is also required to have a master’s degree and submit a brief explanation about his/her research interests. Admission of applicants to the Ph.D. program is subject to assigning supervisors for their research topics.
