Research at IISER Pune covers a wide range of research
areas in Physics, Chemistry, Biology
and Mathematics. In addition, we
actively encourage research initiatives that span multiple disciplines.
IISER Pune offers modern research laboratories and
computational facilities as well as comfortable housing for students selected into
a graduate program at the institute. A core component of graduate student life
at IISER Pune includes opportunities to participate in a broad range of
seminars, meetings and workshops. This gives our students a chance to interact
with people from other research organizations within the country and abroad.
To take the interdisciplinary idea further, IISER Pune has
now started an Interdisciplinary Biology Program. Students with backgrounds in
Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Engineering, and Computer Sciences who wish to
apply their knowledge to understanding concepts in biology will benefit from
this Program.
Applications for the PhD program are invited from
candidates with a MS/M Sc in any Basic Science discipline or M Tech or MBBS or
M V Sc or M Pharm. All shortlisted applicants are required to take a written
test followed by an interview. Candidates who have qualified the
CSIR/ICMR/Gate exam are also required to appear for this entrance test for
admission to the PhD program at IISER Pune.
IISER Pune conducts PhD entrance exams twice a year: Spring Session (Interviews in December) and Fall
Session (Interviews in June). Candidates can opt for more than one branch of
Science, based on their interests. Apply separately for each program following
the links below.
