SELECTION PROCESS: Goa University PhD Programme 2023
While grading the candidates for admission to the Ph.D. Programme, a weightage of 70% shall be given for the Entrance Test and 30% to the performance in the Interview/Viva-Voce. A Candidate shall be required to score a minimum of 50% marks at the Interview. (5% relaxation for SC/ST/OBC(NCL)/Person with Disability, or other categories of Candidates as specified by the State Government).
- Candidates who have cleared any of the National or State Level Tests like M.Phil/CSIR- UGC/UGC NET/SET/JRF/lectureship, DBT JRF /SLET/JEST/ICAR-NET /GATE/GPAT/GU-PET etc. Examinations shall be admitted by normalizing their marks/score/ percentage in such tests with respect to 70% component of GU-PET.
For normalizing the marks obtained in the National Level and State Level Tests, the following formula shall be used.
Normalized % Marks = 70 – [0.45 x (100 – Obtained % Marks)]
Provided that in case of the Candidates who do not possess the Certificates of the National or State level tests / fellowships mentioned above showing the score earned by them, the percentage score obtained at the Master’s level shall be considered for normalizing.
In case of candidates with GPAT score, the marks shall be calculated by dividing the GPAT score by 5 and then normalised using the above formula.
In case of candidates with M.Phil. normalized marks shall be equal to percentage marks scored by the candidate times 0.7.
- The actual marks scored by candidates at the GU-PET shall be treated as normalised marks.
- Senior Citizens shall be deemed to have scored 50% marks in the GU-PET.
- There shall be two rounds of interviews; (a)For candidates who have qualified the M.Phil/CSIR-UGC/UGC NET/SET/JRF/lectureship, DBT JRF / SLET/ JEST/ ICAR-NET /GATE/GPAT Examinations (b) For those who have answered the GU-PET and Senior Citizens.
- Candidates shall be admitted to the Ph.D. Programme in the respective Schools/Research Centres, only against the predetermined number of vacancies announced in this Notification.
- In case of a tie in scores, preference shall be given to those who have been awarded like M.Phil/CSIR-UGC/UGC-NET/SET/JRF/lectureship, DBTJRF/SLET/JEST/ICAR-NET GATE/GPAT over GU-PET qualified candidates in that order. If the tie still persists then the interview performance shall be used as a tiebreaker.
