After qualifying LPU NEST (exempted on basis of UGC (NET/ JRF)/ CSIR (NET/ JRF)/ ICAR (JRF/ SRF) examination/ SLET (Punjab only)/ GATE/ GPAT/ ICAR (NET), Teacher Fellowship holder or passed M.Phil. Programme in Regular mode only), the applicant is evaluated through an interview for research aptitude, innovativeness and feasibility of the topic of research, concept clarity in discipline and attitude. The applicant must be clear on the intended area of research, theoretical concepts related to core discipline and basic concepts of research methodology. Exposure to some research journals and research publications of the concerned disciplines is required. It will be better if you review some literature of research publications in the intended area of research. During interview you are required to bring a research proposal that covers following points: Broad area of research / title of proposed work Origin of the problem/ literature survey Suggested methodology Expected outcomes and applications of the proposed research work. Bio data of the applicant is required at the time of interview. I hope this will help you to get prepared for the Ph.D. interview at LPU. Wish you all the best!
