Key Features
Amrita has very resourceful professors that are highly trained and deliver their lectures with a high sense of compassion. The sustainable development Ph.D. program courses have exceeded my expectation in terms of wide course coverage and the knowledge will be highly relevant for field implementation to solve everyday environmental issues. The program has provided me with an opportunity to see everyday problems and to offer relevant solutions. The university workshops and colloquium are super and well organised.
I have learned an extraordinary amount and managed remote learning better than expected. Taking this program has transformed my thinking and life. I feel very privileged to be in the program.
The Ph.D. in sustainable development at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham has a dual component with potential for global impact. In addition to an interdisciplinary academic focus, it combines extensive fieldwork to design sustainable interventions for specific communities in a broad array of sustainability domains. Our international cohort of scholars from several different countries suggests that these interventions can be taken to different regions.
