72 MonthsDoctorate of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Astronomy and Astrophysics is a six years full-time research course offered by the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai.
Research Scholars should have completed their M.Sc., B.E/B. Tech. or B.Sc. degrees before joining NCRA-TIFR. Students from the Physics, Electronics, Astronomy, or Applied Mathematics branches of the M.Sc. degree are eligible for NCRA-TIFR's Ph.D. program., while students with a B.Sc., B.E., or B.Tech. degree are eligible for NCRA-TIFR's Integrated Ph.D. program.
The Admission Procedure is based on two main avenues, the Joint Entrance Screening Test (JEST) and the TIFR entrance test (conducted by TIFR-Mumbai). Both selection methods are based on a written test and two interviews. The written tests are typically conducted every year in early December (TIFR test) and mid-February (JEST), with the interviews in March of the following year (TIFR) and late June (JEST). Besides these, NCRA also pre-selects Research Scholars from our Visiting Student's Research Programme, conducted every summer in Pune.
