Admission to Ph. D. Programmes in Physics/ Theoretical Computer Science.

A number of reputed institutes in india have come together to conduct a JointEntrance Screening Test (JEST) for enrolment of students in Ph.D. / Integrated M.Sc.-Ph.D. programs in Physics (including various inter-disciplinary research areas in physics) and Theoretical Computer Science. JEST is conducted for selecting candidates to be interviewed for admission to Ph. D. Programmes in Physics/ Theoretical Computer Science in these institutions in india. Applications are invited from motivated students, with consistently good academic record, for appearing in JEST leading to enrolment in a Ph. D. Programme in Physics (including various inter-disciplinary research areas in Physics)/ Theoretical Computer Science, at any of the 20 premier participating institutions. JEST score forms an important component in the selection of candidates for the Ph.D. programmes in these institutions.
