M.Tech (Energy Systems and Technology, Focused on Solar Energy) and PhD Programs require successful completion of prescribed course works.

Basic features of M.Tech and PhD programs:
.  Course credit requirement for M.Tech: 111 (with compulsory industrial internship)
•  M.Tech projects to be carried out during second year:
     (i) On industrial problems
     (ii) Photovoltaic materials development and solar cell design
     (iii) Based on real time PV cell/ module or system level performance and sustainability studies
     (iv) Performance studies of 1MW PV power generation plant at PDPU
•  M.Tech project works are counseled based on the background and first year courses performance of     the student.
•  PhD projects work related to present faculty R&D activities in Solar PV, PV Balance of Systems and     PV Systems Engineering
•  PhDs in thrust areas of Thin Film Photovoltaic, Photovoltaic Systems, Reliability and Sustainability     Studies in PV
• Core courses (6-Credits): Mathematical Techniques, Quantum Mechanics & Semiconductors,     Thermodynamics & Heat Transfer , Vacuum Science & Thin Film Technology, Renewable Energy &     Energy Management, Photovoltaic Science & Engineering, Solar Thermal Engineering, Semiconductor     Processing & Characterization, Modeling & Simulation, Galvanic Energy Storage.
• Elective courses (4-Credits): Semiconductors & Optoelectronic Devices, Nanostructured Materials,    Applied Photovoltiacs & Energy Efficiency
