Axis Bank Ph.D. Program in Psychology
The Department of Psychology at Ashoka University invites application for its Axis Bank PhD program in cross disciplinary research spanning different domains of psychology. Our faculty expertise spans social, developmental, biological, cognitive, clinical, and counseling psychology. Methodologies span qualitative and quantitative, theoretical and experimental.
Prospective students are requested to visit faculty webpages to learn more about individual faculty research and contact faculty prior to their formal application. Please read through the instructions carefully before proceeding with applications. The following faculty members are accepting PhD students in this admission cycle: Bittu K. Rajaraman, Mary Arneaud, Naseer Bhat, Simantini Ghosh, Sramana Majumdar, and Supriyo Ray.
The department PhD Coordinator is Dr. Dipanjan Ray (dipanjan.ray@ashoka.edu.in).
Accepted students are expected to commit full-time to their PhD studies. They are not allowed to take on paid jobs outside their studies, unless it can be demonstrated that these jobs contribute to their research.
We especially encourage applications from individuals from historically marginalized communities, e.g. individuals/ women/trans candidates from Dalit Bahujan and Adivasi backgrounds who fulfill the eligibility criteria.
