Ph.D Preparation

Here are some tips for you to prepare for the PhD in CSE entrance exams:

• You should know the examination format very well as it will keep you ahead of others. The pattern may differ on the basis of the exam you're taking, either it is at the national-level or taken by the university itself. Mostly, the question paper is divided into two basic parts: one part contains general research aptitude questions while the other part asks you to answer some subject-specific questions.
• Give more importance to the sections which are important from the exam point of view. For that, you need to prepare a list of important topics from the syllabus and give special attention to those sections.
• The more you revise, the better you will score in the entrance test. You should start your revision at least 2 to 3 months before the actual exam date.

The syllabus for the PhD program will depend on the subject opted for by the student. Note that the PhD program is available in almost all the major disciplines, including - Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Bio-Sciences, Clinical Research, Zoology, Applied Sciences, Economics, Social Work, Literature, Arts, Psychology, and Social Sciences.

The student will get around 3-5 years to complete their PhD programme. At the end of the program, the student will have to submit an original research thesis on a particular topic. 

The research paper may include topics like:

• Introduction to the subject
• Research Design
• Research Foundation
• Quality Standards
• Measuring Structure and Size
