Post-Doctoral Fellowship Programme Like many other programmes of the Higher Education Commission launched for the uplift of higher education and R&D sectors in the country, Post-Doctoral Fellowship Programme has also played a pivotal role in bringing about the muchneeded revolution in these areas. The Programme is providing 700 slots to the faculty members and researchers, holding PhD degrees, to work in the top-notch universities and stateof-the-art laboratories in technologically advanced countries. These fellowships are offered on national basis and open merit. 70 percent slots are reserved for faculty members of public sector universities and institutes, whereas private universities are given 20 percent slots. Ten percent of these scholars belong to the public sector R&D organizations. Special consideration is given to those scholars who have no prior academic exposure abroad. In the year 2008-09, 110 scholars proceeded for the fellowship in Basic and Applied Sciences, Agriculture, Information Technology, Social Sciences, Arts, etc. So far, 132 have completed the fellowship from previous batches.
