Ph.D Programme in Mechanical Engineering

The Department of Mechanical Engineering at Tezpur University is offering Ph.D Programme in the following areas under the below specified supervisors:
S.No. Supervisor Research Domain Objective Eligibility
1 Dilip Datta Optimization To develop algorithms, specially Evolutionary Algorithms (such as Genetic Algorithm, Differential Evolution, and Particle Swarm Optimization) for multi-objective combinatorial optimization problems with applications to various real-life and practical problems. This is a highly interdisciplinary research area,covering the designing of small and precise scientific components in laboratories, predicting profits in share markets, partitioning geographical and political territories, analyzing huge biological data, and many more. Hence, a Master degree holder in any discipline, with Mathematics at least up to 10+2 level and having good computer programming skill, is well capable to carry out a research work in this particular domain with application to the area of his/her interest.
