phd in artificial intelligence india

The School of Artificial Intelligence (ScAI) set up in IIT Delhi has started broad based activities to bolster the AI related research in the country. Established in September last year, the School is aimed at meeting the strong global demand  for skilled AI manpower and spruce the AI ecosystem of the country.

Prof Mausam, Head School of Artificial Intelligence(ScAI) talks to Vanita Srivastava on the thrust areas, the future plans and more.

Edited Excerpts:

It has been just six months since the formal launch of the School. What have you able to attain so far? What have you planned for the future? We have made substantial progress in setting up the school. We have already launched the PhD programme in AI. We have submitted a proposal to the Board of Academic Programmes for starting an MTech programme in Machine Intelligence and Data Science. If this gets a nod, we can start it from July this year. Our advertisement for faculty recruiting is released, and applications have started coming in. We will initiate recruitment of core faculty soon. Around 15 faculty from several departments have already expressed their interest in becoming a joint faculty with the school, many more have joined us as associated faculty members. As part of the institution building process, I plan to start regular focused brainstorming sessions of all faculty members to develop research agendas in the various emerging themes and applications of AI.  Our website http://scai.iitd.ac.in  is also ready  where all the updates will be posted

What are the major thrust areas that you would be focussing on? On the basis of initial meetings of our current faculty members, five major applied research areas naturally emerged as our strength. These are: AI for health care, AI for Industry 4.0, Multilingual AI, Physically-grounded AI and AI for materials. The AI in health care group focuses on prediction of diseases from symptoms, automated radiology, personalized medicine and wearable robotics. Our research group in AI for materials targets the use of machine learning and natural language processing to predict the glass composition with a desired property. The traditional manufacturing processes are not always optimized; Industry 4.0 can help by detecting anomalies, and use optimization to increase efficiency in manufacturing processes. Multilingual AI area will help in translation of texts written in different languages, and will build multilingual dialogue systems and chatbots. Lastly, the physical AI group will develop methods to make robots more successful in their tasks, and also communicate effectively with humans. How do you plan to collaborate with the industry partners and spruce the funding? We are looking for funding at three different levels- government,  private donors and industry partners. A seed funding of 2 crore from one of our alumni, Mr Arun Duggal, got us started. We are aggressively connecting with more alumni and looking for a named sponsor to support the cause of developing AI at IIT Delhi. Donors can also join our league of founding donors -- they will be donors forever for the school. We have also started a preliminary round of talks with several industry partners. Our goal is to partner with companies who would be willing to have ties with us for atleast 4-5 years, possibly through their CSR funding.

Is it necessary to have a background in computer or electrical engineering for a PhD or MTech in AI? AI is emerging as a multidisciplinary field, with its roots in computer science, mathematics, cognitive science and electrical engineering, and its applications in almost every area. Thus, we invite PhD students from all backgrounds as long as they have knowledge of the fundamentals, irrespective of whether they studied it formally or learnt it themselves. In short, no -- a background in computer or electrical engineering is not a must for someone seeking an admission to Phd or M. Tech programme in AI. Building infrastructure would be a major challenge. How do you plan to address this? There are fundamentally three pillars in terms of infrastructural needs-data, algorithms and computational support. The first is taken care of by the domain experts, the second by core AI faculty and the last one we are gradually developing. Under this category, we recently submitted a proposal for building an AI supercomputer at IIT.

What were the major objectives for setting up the School of AI? AI technologies are driving global transformations and playing a pivotal role in social change. We fundamentally wanted to strengthen education and research in AI, Machine Learning and Data Science, and enable commercial and societal applications.  There is a lot of gap between demand and supply of AI professionals. There is therefore an urgent need for capacity building both for the industry and research. The School is essentially meant to provide single platform for students, faculty members, industry, non- profit organizations and policy makers, who share the common goal of making India an AI-powerhouse. What are the areas in IITD where AI is being used? There are more than 11 core researchers who have specialization in deep learning, reinforcement learning, adversarial networks, data mining, information retrieval, big data, probabilistic models, ethics of AI, logic based AI, and neuro symbolic AI. Besides there are more than 40 researchers engaged in health care, social media, computer vision, robotics, transportation, materials, languages, neuroscience, IoT and hardware. We also have strong partnerships with IBM Research on core AI algorithms and with AIIMS on healthcare applications. We regularly serve on governmental committees related to AI.

Reinforcement learning for mobile edge computing system

In an Internet of Things (IoT) based network, tasks arriving at individual nodes can be processed in-device or at a local Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) server. This project, led by Arghyadip Roy , focuses on the optimal resource allocation problem for tasks arriving in an MEC-based IoT network. To address the high complexities of achieving optimality, the aim is to develop low-complexity task scheduling schemes. Additionally, reinforcement learning (RL) based approaches will be developed that can learn the optimal policy by interacting with the environment. The performance of the RL-based schemes will be evaluated in system-level simulators. More details can be found in this paper on a related work of ours, and a presentation on the same is available here .

Analysis of facial tissue movements using AI

The eye and facial movements convey subtle information about the mental state (e.g., attention, intention, emotion) and physical state (e.g., age, health, fatigue) of a person. These movements, which generate facial expressions, are carefully scrutinized by humans in social settings. Debanga Raj Neog's lab is focussing on developing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based systems for measuring, modeling, and animating eye gaze and facial tissue deformations for applications in healthcare and computer animation. The idea is to use high frame rate vision systems to capture human faces, and apply data-driven approaches to analyze and model facial expressions. In the healthcare sector, facial movement analysis can be used to develop tools for rapid assessments of mental health and to build patient-computer interaction systems. In computer graphics, it can help in creating real-time and hyper-realistic computer-generated animations of human eyes and faces in creating convincing and interactive animation characters.

We require applicants who will be studying on an F-1 or J-1 visa, and for whom English is not a native language, to demonstrate English proficiency via one of these standardized tests: TOEFL (preferred), IELTS, or Duolingo.  We discourage the use of the "TOEFL ITP Plus for China," since speaking is not scored. We do not issue waivers for non-native speakers of English.   In particular, we do not issue waivers based on previous study at a U.S. high school, college, or university.  We also do not issue waivers based on previous study at an English-language high school, college, or university outside of the United States.  No amount of educational experience in English, regardless of which country it occurred in, will result in a test waiver.

Submit valid, recent scores:   If as described above you are required to submit proof of English proficiency, your TOEFL, IELTS or Duolingo test scores will be considered valid as follows: If you have not received a bachelor’s degree in the U.S., you will need to submit an English proficiency score no older than two years. (scores from exams taken before Sept. 1, 2023, will not be accepted.) If you are currently working on or have received a bachelor's and/or a master's degree in the U.S., you may submit an expired test score up to five years old. (scores from exams taken before Sept. 1, 2019, will not be accepted.)

  • Doing a PhD in Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence and intelligent systems are thought to be the key to the next ‘industrial revolution’. In a data-rich world, developing an artificial intelligence which can learn from its experience and call on human behaviour to make decisions could change the way we live and offer endless economic, social and scientific applications. Nationwide, there is an increasing demand for AI workers, as the world is becoming more reliant on developing technology and automated systems. Consequently, more and more people are pursuing postgraduate research in AI.

What Does a PhD in Artificial Intelligence Focus On?

A PhD in artificial intelligence will give you a deep understanding of AI, allow you to contribute to the development of emerging technology, and equip you with highly applicable technical skills. For example, engineering applications of artificial intelligence include automation of tasks and parametric modelling. Medical applications include using data-science approaches to identify patterns of illness in clinical data. Financial applications include using machine learning platforms to crunch huge amounts of data and help credit lenders in analysing risk and assess potential borrowers.

Artificial Intelligence PhD programme can focus on:

  • Machine learning
  • Deep learning
  • Natural language processing
  • Deep neural network architecture
  • Human-machine interaction
  • Augmented reality
  • And countless other areas

Application of artificial intelligence to multiphysics problems in materials design, from text to tech: shaping the future of physics-based simulations with ai-driven generative models, study of the human-vehicle interactions by a high-end dynamic driving simulator, coventry university postgraduate research studentships, discovery of solid state electrolytes using deep learning, entry requirements for a phd in artificial intelligence.

The entry requirements for a PhD in AI are typically an upper second-class honours degree (or international equivalent) in a relevant subject from an accredited university. Subjects considered relevant to artificial intelligence include computer science, engineering, mathematics, statistics, electronics/electrical engineering or science.

Some research courses also require applicants to possess experience in programming, the desired programming language will be specific to the research project. Academic or work experience in machine learning or data science are typically favourable for applications.

International students will also need to meet several minimum English language requirements set by the university, usually as part of a TOEFL or IELTS exam.

Duration and Programme Types

Like most PhDs, a doctoral programme in Artificial Intelligence typically takes 3-4 years full-time, or 6 years part-time .

Aside from the traditional PhD, there is also the CDT PhD. Many Universities have Centres for Doctoral Training (CDTs) which are often funded by the UKRI centre . These CDTs can offer the CDT PhD which is a specialised PhD programme in artificial intelligence. The main difference between a standard PhD in artificial intelligence and a CDT PhD in artificial intelligence is that the latter includes additional modules which give candidates training in neuroscience, entrepreneurship, high performance computing, AI ethics and science communication.

Due to the different research areas you can pursue within the artificial intelligence field, the nature of programmes can vary. Some PhD research programmes are computational based and heavily reliant on coding, mathematics and lab work. Other research programmes can be people facing, involving questionnaires, for example to determine public perception on proposed legislation.

Costs and Funding

Annual tuition fees for PhDs in Artificial Intelligence are typically around £4,000 to £5,000 for UK/EU students. Tuition fees for international students are usually much higher, typically around £25,000 per academic year.

A variety of scholarships and funding support options are available for postgraduate study. For Artificial Intelligence in particular, the UKRI and ESPRC offer a number of studentships and CDT opportunities across varies universities. Many universities have research centres which are partnered with UK research councils and offer fully funded programmes. Funding is generally available for UK/EU students. International students are also eligible for some funding opportunities, but these tend to be less widely available.

Available Career Paths in AI

One of the key advantages of Artificial Intelligence is that it has a wide range of applications, and hence there are many career paths available. As computer systems and data have become more integrated in everyday life, the demand for experts in AI has grown rapidly. This high demand has resulted in many high job security and lucrative salaries.

Examples destinations for an AI PhD student include:

Data Analyst – If you are very analytical research student, you may use your artificial intelligence PhD to pursue a career in data science or analysis. Data analysts can be found in engineering, finance, healthcare, and everywhere in between. They are responsible for data crunching and using their skills to present complex information in a clear manner – visually and orally. Typical duties include record management, maintaining automated processes, monitoring analytics and KPIs, improving algorithms, and creating dashboards for clients. The average salary for data analysts in the UK is around £30,000 – £45,000, though this number can increase drastically depending on the sector.

DiscoverPhDs_AI_Data_Analyst

Cyber Security – As cyber-attacks are becoming more commonplace, industries are looking to develop their cyber security, and salaries are seeing a sharp increase accordingly. AI doctorates are well placed for a career in cyber security, and typical career destinations include security analysts, penetration testers, systems engineers, web developers and cybersecurity consultants. In these roles, you will be responsible for protecting IT infrastructure and help develop security systems.

Machine learning – Often those with a PhD in AI become machine learning engineers, responsible for the development of intelligent systems. Machine learning is a subset of AI which focuses on the idea that machines can be programmed to learn from data and experience to improve decision making without human input. Machine learning is perhaps at the forefront of AI research, and there are numerous programmes look to improve its capabilities. This is well suited for those who enjoy the mathematical and programming side of computer science. Typical duties include managing data pipelines, developing algorithms, liaising with stakeholders, analysing datasets, and leading software design. Entry level salaries are around £35,000 and can exceed £150,000 with experience. Deep learning is similar to machine learning, the main difference is that deep learning aims to create artificial ‘neural networks’.

Postgraduate research often leads to an academic career. As an academic you can propose your own research projects based on your interest and supervise students. As a professor you can shape the next generation of AI experts and as a researcher you can make use of a university’s department resources, facilities and industrial ties to work with cutting edge technology and push the boundaries of our knowledge.

PhD in Artificial Intelligence Programs

phd in artificial intelligence india

On This Page:

Universities offer a variety of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) programs related to Artificial Intelligence (AI.) Some of these are titled as Ph.D.s in AI, whereas most are Ph.D.s in Computer Science or related engineering disciplines with a specialization or focus in AI. Admissions requirements usually include a related bachelor’s degree and, sometimes, a master’s degree. Moreover, most Ph.D. programs expect academic excellence and strong recommendations. The AI Ph.D. programs take three to five or more years, depending on if you have a master’s and the complexity of your dissertation. People with Ph.D.s in AI usually go on to tenure track professorships, postdoctoral research positions, or high-level software engineering positions.

What Are Artificial Intelligence Ph.D. Programs?

Ph.D. programs in AI focus on mastering advanced theoretical subjects, such as decision theory, algorithms, optimization, and stochastic processes. Artificial intelligence covers anything where a computer behaves, rationalizes, or learns like a human. Ph.D.s are usually the endpoint to a long educational career. By the time scholars earn Ph.D.s, they have probably been in school for well over 20 years.

People with an AI Ph.D. degree are capable of formulating and executing novel research into the subtopics of AI. Some of the subtopics include:

  • Environment adaptation in self-driving vehicles
  • Natural language processing in robotics
  • Cheating detection in higher education
  • Diagnosing and treating diseased in healthcare

AI Ph.D. programs require candidates to focus most of their coursework and research on AI topics. Most culminate in a dissertation of published research. Many AI Ph.D. recipients’ dissertations are published in peer-reviewed journals or presented at industry-leading conferences. They go on to lead careers as experts in AI technology.

Types of Artificial Intelligence Ph.D. Programs

Most AI Ph.D. programs are a Ph.D. in Computer Science with a concentration in AI. These degrees involve general, advanced level computer science courses for the first year or two and then specialize in AI courses and research for the remainder of the curriculum.

AI Ph.D.s offered in other colleges like Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or Electrical Engineering are similar to Ph.D.s in Computer Science. They often involve similar coursework and research. For instance, colleges like Indiana University Bloomington’s Computing and Engineering have departments specializing in AI or Intelligent Engineering. Some colleges, however, may focus more on a specific discipline. For example, a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering with an AI focus is more likely to involve electric vehicles than targeted online advertising.

Some AI programs fall under a Computational Linguistics specialization, like CUNY . These programs emphasize the natural language processing aspect of AI. Computational Linguistics programs still involve significant computer science and engineering but also require advanced knowledge in language and speech.

Other unique programs offer a joint Ph.D. with non-engineering disciplines, such as Carnegie Mellon’s Joint Ph.D. in Machine Learning and Public Policy, Statistics, or Neural Computation .

How Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence Programs Work

Ph.D. programs usually take three to six years to complete. For example, Harvard lays out a three+ year track where the last year(s) is spent completing your research and defending your dissertation. Many Ph.D. programs have a residency requirement where you must take classes on-campus for one to three years. Moreover, most universities, such as Brandeis , require Ph.D. students to grade and/or teach for one to four semesters. Despite these requirements, several Ph.D. programs allow for part-time or full-time students, like Drexel .

Admissions Requirements

Ph.D. programs in AI admit the strongest students. Most applications require a resume, transcripts, letters of recommendation, and a statement of interest. Many programs require a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0 or higher, although some allow for statements of explanation if you have a lower GPA due to illness or other excusable causes for a low GPA.

Many universities, like Cornell , recently made the GRE either optional or not required because the GRE provides little prediction into the success of research and represents a COVID-19 risk. These programs may require the GRE again in the future. However, many schools still require the IELTS/TOEFL for international applicants.

Curriculum and Coursework

The curriculum for AI Ph.D.s varies based on the applicants’ prior education for many universities. Some programs allow applicants to receive credit for relevant master’s programs completed prior to admission. The programs require about 30 hours of advanced research and classes. Other programs do not give credit for master’s programs completed elsewhere. These require over 60 hours of electives, in addition to the 30-hours of fundamental and core classes in addition to the advanced courses.

For programs with more specific specialties, the courses are usually narrowly focused. For example, Duke’s Dynamics, Robotics, and Controls track requires ten classes, at least three of which are focused on AI as it relates to robotics. Others allow for non-AI-specific courses such as computer networks.

Many Ph.D. programs have strict GPA requirements to remain in the program. For example, Northeastern requires PhD candidates to maintain at least a 3.5 GPA. Other programs automatically dismiss students with too many Cs in courses.

Common specializations include:

  • Computational Linguistics
  • Automotive Systems
  • Data Science

Artificial Intelligence Dissertations

Most Ph.D. programs require a dissertation. The dissertation takes at least two years to research and write, usually starting in the second or third year of the Ph.D. curriculum. Moreover, many programs require an oral presentation or defense of the dissertation. Some universities give an award for the best dissertation of the year. For example, Boston University gave a best dissertation award to Hao Chen for the dissertation entitled “ Improving Data Center Efficiency Through Smart Grid Integration and Intelligent Analytics .”

A couple of programs require publications, like Capitol Technology , or additional course electives, like LIU . For example, The Ohio State University requires 27 hours of graded coursework and three hours with an advisor for non-thesis path candidates. Thesis-path candidates only have to take 18 hours of graded coursework but must spend 12 hours with their advisors.

Are There Online Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence Programs?

Officially, the majority of AI Ph.D. programs are in-person. Only one university, Capitol Technology University , allows for a fully online program. This is one of the most expensive Ph.D.s in the field, costing about $60,000. However, it is also one of the most flexible programs. It allows you to complete your coursework on your own schedule, perhaps even while working. Moreover, it allows for either a dissertation path or a publication path. The coursework is fully focused on AI research and writing, thus eliminating requirements for more general courses like algorithms or networks.

One detail you should consider is that the Capitol Technology Ph.D. program is heavily driven by a faculty mentor. This is someone you will need consistent contact with and open communication. The website only lists the director, so there is a significant element of uncertainty on how the program will work for you. But doctoral candidates who are self-driven and have a solid idea of their research path have a higher likelihood of succeeding.

If you need flexibility in your Ph.D. program, you may find some professors at traditional universities will work with you on how you meet and conduct the research, or you may find an alternative degree program that is online. Although a Ph.D. program may not be officially online, you may be able to spend just a semester or two on campus and then perform the rest of the Ph.D. requirements remotely. This is most likely possible if the university has an online master’s program where you can take classes. For example, the Georgia Institute of Technology does not have a residency requirement, has an online master’s of computer science program , and some professors will work flexibly with doctoral candidates with whom they have a close relationship.

What Jobs Can You Get with a Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence?

Many Ph.D. graduates work as tenure track professors at universities with AI classes. Others work as postdoc research scientists at universities. Both of these roles are expected to conduct research and publish, but professors have more of an expectation to teach, as well. Universities usually have a small number of these positions available. Moreover, postdoc research positions tend to only last for a limited amount of time.

Other engineers with AI-focused-Ph.D.s conduct research and do software development in the private sector at AI-intensive companies. For example, Google uses AI in many departments. Its assistant uses natural language processing to interface with users through voice. Moreover, Google uses AI to generate news feeds for users. Google, and other industry leaders, have a strong preference for engineers with Ph.D.s. This career path is often highly sought by new Ph.D. recipients.

Another private sector industry shifting to AI is vehicle manufacturing. For example, self-driving cars use significant AI to make ethical and legal decisions while operating. Another example is that electric vehicles use AI techniques to optimize performance and power usage.

Some AI Ph.D. recipients become c-suite executives, such as Chief Technology Officers (CTO). For example, Dr. Ted Gaubert has a Ph.D. in engineering and works as a CTO for an AI-intensive company. Another CTO, Dr. David Talby , revolutionized AI with a new natural language processing library, Spark. CTO positions in AI-focused companies often have decades of experience in the AI field.

How Much Do Ph.D. in Artificial Intelligence Programs Cost?

The tuition for many Ph.D. programs is paid through fellowships, graduate research assistantships, and teaching assistantships. For example, Harvard provides full support for Ph.D. candidates. Some programs mandate teaching or research to attend based on the assumption that Ph.D. candidates need financial assistance.

Fellowships are often reserved for applicants with an exceptional academic and research background. These are usually named for eminent alumni, professors, or other scholars associated with the university. Receiving such a fellowship is a highly respected honor.

For programs that do not provide full assistance, the usual cost is about $500 to $1,000 per credit hour, plus university fees. On the low end, Northern Illinois University charges about $557 per credit hour . With 30 to 60 hours required, this means the programs cost about $30,000 to over $60,000 out of pocket. Typically, Ph.D. programs that do not provide funding for any Ph.D. candidates are less reputable or provide other benefits, such as flexibility, online programs, or fewer requirements.

How Much Does a Ph.D. in AI Make?

Engineers with AI Ph.D.s earn well into the six-figure range in the private sector. For example, OpenAI , a non-profit, pays its top researchers over $400,000 per year. Amazon pays its data scientists with Ph.D.s over $200,000 in salary. Directors and executives with Ph.D.s often earn over $1,000,000 in private industry.

When considering working in the private industry, professionals usually compare offers based on total compensation, not just salary. Many companies offer large stock and bonus packages to Ph.D.-level engineers and scientists.

Startups sometimes pay less in salary, but much more in stock options. For example, the salary may be $50,000 to $100,000, but when the startup goes public, you may end up with hundreds of thousands in stock options. This creates a sense of ownership and investment in the success of the startup.

Computer science professors and postdoctoral researchers earn about $90,000 to $160,000 from universities. However, they increase their competition by writing books, speaking at conferences, and advising companies. Startups often employ professors for advice on the feasibility and design of their technology.

  • PM Modi encourages AI applications in key sectors, says Sundar Pichai
  • Sundar Pichai emphasised AI benefits for India

After Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a roundtable meeting of prominent Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) of global tech giants in New York, Google's CEO Sundar Pichai stated that the PM highlighted artificial intelligence (AI) and asked the tech giants to do more in terms of AI so that "it benefits people of India."

He highlighted PM Modi’s forward-thinking approach to artificial intelligence, noting, stating, "He’s really thinking about how AI can transform India in ways that benefit its people. He challenged us to explore applications in healthcare, education, and agriculture, while also focusing on the nation’s infrastructure — whether it’s data centres, power, or energy — to support India’s transition."

Pichai also outlined Google's commitment to AI expansion in India, saying, “We are proud to be partnering with India. We are making significant investments in AI here and look forward to doing more. Several programs and partnerships are already in place."

He added that PM Modi has consistently pushed them to do more for India, and now the challenge extends to AI.

"He has a clear vision of the opportunities AI presents but remains focused on ensuring that AI serves the people of India. His leadership is all about making sure AI works for the greater good," Pichai concluded.

The meeting was held at the Lotte New York Palace Hotel on Sunday during the second day of PM Modi's three-day US visit. IBM’s CEO Arvind Krishna and Noubar Afeyan, the chairman of Moderna, amongst others attended the meeting.
