Vidyashilp University Launches a Ph.D. Program in its Founding Year
Vidyashilp University’s Ph.D. program aims to build collective domain expertise in the University. The program brings together scholars across different educational backgrounds and industries to engage and conduct original research, address industry-based research requirements, and provide solutions to crucial societal needs.
“Our investment into research in the founding year of the University marks our commitment to the growth and development of our faculty and industry partners. We not only encourage research in emerging academic domains but there is an emphasis on the interdisciplinary orientation which is vital to bring value to industry and society. Moreover, we will take the learning from our research to our curriculum and classrooms”, says Dr. Vijayan Immanuel, Vice Chancellor of Vidyashilp University.
The primary guiding principle of the University is to foster and promote an interdisciplinary and interconnected approach to research, innovation, and problem-solving. The University will collaborate with academicians, businesses, industry partners, and society at large to address contemporary real-world problems. This multi-faceted approach not only provides domain expertise but helps develop innovative interdisciplinary solutions.
The research will be conducted in the areas of data science, economics, psychology, material science, and management
