Colleges in Mumbai

The Management school offers part-time PhD courses for executives/working professionals. However, to do coursework, they need to take one year's leave from their respective organisations.

After the conclusion of the application procedure, candidates are shortlisted based on scores in GATE/ UGC-NET (Lectureship)/ UGC-JRF/ CSIR-NET/ CAT/ GMAT/ GRE. Based on the cutoff marks, candidates with a score equal to or higher than the cutoff are selected. The eligible candidates without a valid score have to appear for an entrance test (which is an Aptitude Test covering four sections – English Comprehension, Quantitative Ability, Analytical Reasoning and Data Interpretation). Shortlisted students further have to appear for an interview. 

Candidates enrolled in a PhD programme have to complete a one-year coursework. Following this, candidates in the full-time course have to complete it in 3-4 years. Other candidates can take a little longer to complete the course.
