The NTR University of Health Sciences (NTRUHS) in Hyderabad has opened its undergraduate research programme to a large pool of applicants, receiving 1,622 submissions this cycle. The university will evaluate each proposal against its criteria for scientific merit and feasibility before shortlisting candidates.
From a broader reserve of 200 Faculty Research Grants, the institution plans to earmark between 10 and 25 awards specifically for postgraduate students who wish to pursue independent research projects outside their mandatory dissertations. This move aims to foster early research exposure and encourage interdisciplinary collaboration across health sciences.
The selection panel, comprising senior faculty members, is expected to announce the final list of grant recipients within the next few weeks, after which awardees will commence their projects under university supervision.
