Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) Mechanical Engineering
PhD Mechanical Engineering
Course
Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering is a doctorate level degree that is five to eight years long and can be pursued by candidates irrespective of what their specialisation or stream was at the bachelors’ level. The course is focussed entirely on Mechanical Engineering and is a research based course that delves further into this specific field of study. Candidates should however have a strong background in maths and science.
The course covers topics in Math and Science that require students to have background knowledge in mechanics, thermodynamics, and scientific computing. The course teaches and allows candidates to learn great mechanical engineering skills, as well as technical drawing and computing skills necessary in the designing of machines and equipment.
Mechanical Engineering is not only a technical subject, but is also an analytical area of study and any good course equips its students with not only with the technical ability necessary to excel in this course but also with the ability to apply abstract concepts in real world usage. The field requires a great degree of innovation and out of the box thinking and is concerned with the adopting of new approaches to already existing problems. Professionals in this field are often required to work with various other persons through the course of their career and thus being adaptable to different work environments and being able to communicate effectively with different persons is also of paramount importance.
Eligibility
Candidates wishing to apply for the course need to have completed their masters’ degree in engineering or technology with at least the minimum requisite marks. A student from a masters’ degree in science may also apply, if they have given the GATE and have 65% minimum marks. Bachelor’s degree candidates may also apply from engineering or science with a minimum 75% marks.
Duration: 5-8 years
