The University of Queensland – IIT Delhi Academy of Research (UQIDAR) joint PhD program : Inviting Applications

The University of Queensland (UQ) and the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD) established UQIDAR in 2018 to attract the best global talent including elite students, academics, researchers and scientists to work on goal-directed, cross-disciplinary grand challenges that are of interest to Australia, India and the global community.

UQIDAR joint-PhD Program provides a pathway for exceptional students to enrol in a PhD that is jointly supervised by academics at The University of Queensland and IIT Delhi, with time spent in both Australia and India. Through participating in the program students will gain a generous scholarship, a travel grant and overseas student health cover for 12 months while abroad, access to world-class facilities and resources and gain exposure to a new research ecosystem, network and environment. Upon successful completion of the program, students will receive a jointly awarded Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) from both UQ and IITD.

UQIDAR will enable students to enrol as either i-students or as q-students. Indian nationals and international applicants (with citizenship other than Australia), will be considered for admission as i-students. i-students will spend their first year of study at IITD before completing one year (or more) at UQ. They would then complete the remainder of their studies at IITD. Australian domestic students will be considered for admission as q-students. q-students will spend their first year of study at UQ before completing one year (or more) at IITD, before returning to UQ to complete their program.

An overview of projects commencing in January 2022 can be found on website when applications open on Monday 13 September: https://uqidar.org/our-projects/ Applications can be made online until Sunday17 October, 2021.
