PhD Study

The  PhD offered by Amal Jyothi College of Engineering is approved by the Kingston University UK. Kingston University degrees offer a flexible approach to carrying out research. They allow you to study on a full-time basis or to combine your research studies with employment.
 
Why Choose Amaljyothi ?
 
Research students at Amaljyothi benefit from:
 
  • The opportunity to acquire specialist subject and more general key skills to enhance your future career prospects;
  • A supportive research environment, centred on focused research groups;
  • Top-quality teaching and staff who are active researchers themselves;
  • A regular programme of specialist subject and interdisciplinary research seminars plus the chance to circulate your research findings to the wider academic community; and
  • Massive investment in our learning resources and facilities

A PhD will typically take:

  • Three to four years of full-time study; or
  • Four to six years of part-time study
You will normally need a postgraduate masters degree or a first/upper second class honours degree or equivalent in a subject relevant to your proposed research programme.
 
Word length for the PhD thesis varies according to discipline, and is about 40,000 words for healthcare, science and engineering, or 80,000 for other subject areas. On completion it will be the subject of an oral examination, in which you will show how you have:
 
  • Critically investigated your area of research; and
  • Made an independent and original contribution to knowledge
Initially, your admission will be provisional and subject to formal confirmation after your first year of study.
 
In exceptional circumstances, we may consider you for admission to a research degree without the conventional qualifications. If you have substantial relevant professional experience, including publications or written reports, the University will consider these as a potential alternative basis for an application for admission to a research degree programme.
