Prime Minister Fellowship Program for IIT/NIT/IISER/IISC students to pursue research in CFTIs

About

This scheme is aimed at encouraging young, talented, enthusiastic and result-oriented scholars to take up industry-relevant research. Under this scheme, full-time PhD scholars get double the money that they would otherwise get for doing research. Maximum government fellowship in India at any academic or research institute is approximately Rs 36,400 per month, including House Rent Allowance (HRA) for SRF category. Under the Prime Minister’s Fellowship Scheme for Doctoral Research, the scholars get double the JRF/SRF as scholarship (as per applicable slabs). While one-half of this scholarship comes from the government, the second half comes from a partner company which also works closely with the candidate on the research project. The first batch commenced in 2013. The scheme has been made open-ended since September 2014, allowing aspirants to apply anytime within 14 months from their PhD registration.
More than 145 Fellowships have been awarded under this scheme with active participation of CII and its member companies. Over 60 institutions and more than 100 companies are supporting PM Fellows. PM Fellows, supported by SERB and CII, have been winning accolades and laurels across the world and have been granted more than 5 patents so far.
