Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT-KGP) and University of Alberta (UoA), one of Canada's top ranking university, have collaborated to explore opportunities for a joint doctoral degree programme.
For this programme, the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between both the institutions.
Under a joint doctoral degree programme, students will work on collaborative projects and will be co-supervised by faculty members at both institutions.
To pursue the joint research at UoA, the special scheme from Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB) and UoA will be explored where IIT KGP’s doctoral students may receive funding for up to 12 months.
