HRD Ministry says No to two-year PhD Courses at IIMs


HRD Ministry says No to two-year PhD Courses at IIMs

B-SCHOOLS told to follow UGC rules 

 

The government has given the go-ahead to the Indian Institutes of Management (IIMs) to allow direct entry to students with a four-year bachelor’s degree to their PhD courses, but refused to permit completion of PhD within two years.

Citing the rulebook of the higher education regulator, University Grants Commission (UGC), the human resource development (HRD) ministry wrote to directors of all IIMs on October 23 rejecting the proposal seeking a two-year time frame for PhD and said that doctoral courses cannot be completed in less than three years.
