Programmes By Research (Full-time and Part-time)<\/strong><\/p>\n

General Information<\/strong><\/p>\n

Faculty of Science offers Master of Philosophy and Doctor of Philosophy programmes by research in all fields of specialisation (Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics). A student will carry out research in any one of the areas of research. Each research work has to be supervised by a lecturer or a panel of lecturers from the Graduate Faculty. Co-supervisors may also be appointed from a local\/international higher institutions or related industry.<\/p>\n

In addition to the university compulsory courses, research students may be required to attend lectures related to their research fields. The subjects to be taken shall be determined by the respective supervisors. As part of their training, students are required to participate in seminars and conferences, write technical reports or papers for publications in referred proceedings or indexed journals.<\/p>\n

Assessment for research students is done by means of each semester progress reports, first assessment report and thesis examination (viva-voce).
