More over what after? the question is not clear to many. I haven't seen any industry paying more to a phd graduate than a BE with similar age with working experience. Job sector after the Ph.D is not that great in India in my opinion. In today's scenario, 18-20Ks do not really appeal to the students as I understand. That is also a reason for not being able to fill the present quota of seats. By the way, does anyone have a figure for the total allocated Ph.D seats per IIT/year? Is there any number like that? or its all floue?R.Shabadihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15072413627094859260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9818962.post-1741155902108950372011-05-31T09:46:01.154+05:302011-05-31T09:46:01.154+05:30Most of the Departments in IITs do not fill their ...Most of the Departments in IITs do not fill their sanctioned strength of research scholars. This is in spite of conducting interviews twice a year, and also special interviews to convert M.Techs and MS students to PhD as and when a candidate desires. The selection ratio for new entrants is not so steep either. Yet if the quote is not being filled, it is because there are not enough suitable candidates among the applicants. First we should aim to fill the sanctioned strength and then aim to increase it. PhD scholarship stands at 18K/month for first two years and 20K/month for next two years. But what would the student do after (s)he gets the PhD? If that answer is clear, there could be more willing candidates taking up this programme.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14375088770211511174noreply@blogger.com
