The Ph.D. in Economics program requires applicants to submit a research proposal that matches their research goals. Those who are successful in the initial selection take the Research Entrance Test (R.E.T.) exam. Passing candidates must then attend an interview with the Board of Studies to further discuss their research objectives. Selection into the program relies on the interview outcome. The faculty is highly qualified and approachable, maintaining a good student-teacher ratio, and they integrate diverse academic perspectives into their teaching.
The annual tuition fee is 10,000 INR, with additional costs of 18,000 INR for standard hostel accommodation and food. Newer hostels with air-conditioning and Wi-Fi are available at a fee roughly one-third higher than standard rates. The university does not offer campus recruitment, yet students often secure off-campus positions through faculty recommendations. Alumni frequently work as research officers or teachers at various institutions. The university does not provide formal internships, but faculty-led, unpaid internships are available, attracting both local and international students for short durations.
While the university does not offer its own scholarships, it effectively guides students toward government funding opportunities.
