Ph. D (Materials Science and Engineering) Qualifying Degree Credit requirement (minimum CGPA required 7. 5) B. Tech 20 credits of course work+HSL 800 (Research writing, mandatory audit course) M. Sc 20 credits of course work+HSL 800 (Research writing, mandatory audit course) M. Tech 6 credits of course work+HSL 800 (Research writing, mandatory audit course) Important Points The students must register for these courses on the Web-based Academic Management System by using their Kerberos ID and password. The students must register for the courses by September 25, 2020 so that their name can appear in the course mailing list before September 28, when the classes begin. Weblink for registration: https: //eacademics. iitd. ac. in/sportal The instructions for doing web-based registration of these courses are also available on the above link. All the students will get information regarding a particular course like the date and time of the first class, platform being used for online classes by the concerned teacher or any other important information ONLY through the course mailing list on their IITD mail account. So, if they delay registering for a course, they will not be able to receive any information regarding that course till their name gets added to the mailing list.
