Yes surely. You have to find the right professor by checking Google scholar and then the university web sites. Then you have to email the professor. Write an Impressive Email to a Professor! ua-cam.com/video/z4alodz10TM/v-deo.html

@@Drganguli sir can you explain the process from start how to apply for course and scholarships in japan

@@simranrakwal1530 Japan PhD process is very professor centric for foreign students. The best approach is to convince a professor that he should guide your PhD degree. Once this happens they will give you all the details. If you want a scholarship, the MEXT program is there Study in Japan with the MEXT scholarship! ua-cam.com/video/R9Kbqy5LIkk/v-deo.html But many more scholarships may be there from a professors personal research grants. You have to a literature review and fine the Japanese professor you want to work with. That is the best approach

Best wishes and thank you

Ya Japan is a good place for PhD. It is also a relatively safe country. Some knowledge of basis Japanese will help you though.

I would also suggest that you do the degree from nit. These good or bad labels are given by people but what matters is how well you do in the class once you join. Another gap year may or may not improve your chances. And time and money will be lost.

​@@Drganguli Sir,....Suppose I took admission in nit, gave the semester fees which is around 60k and next year in March I also cracked IIT jam exam with a good rank that will get me to IIT for my msc. Then I will switch to IIT and again I will have to pay semester fees in IIT which will be much more again. Taking second gap year will be worth it if I make into IIT next year, what do you say sir? Or a gap year will effect my PhD interview or job interview.

@@Ishvi-34 yes gap years have a negative impact on the interview committee. You can take 10 courses in a year and write a paper. That much time is being expended on studying for an exam. You could study at nit and apply abroad for PhD also. But ultimately the decision is yours to make. There is no guarantee that your jam score will get you iit next year. But this nit admission will go away.

@@Drganguli ok sir....Thank you 🙂

Most welcome

If GRE is mandatory then you need to clear the cutoff if that is mentioned. Otherwise you should apply to the universities which do not need GRE. There are many such universities. Also give GRE before applying so you know your score. Try to improve your vocabulary. This video series will help you.

I think classifying people into groups, a favourite task of social science people can have negative consequence. Like in affirmative action Asians are removed in most Ivy League us universities but there are many who come from disadvantaged backgrounds

@@Drganguli I agree! Thank you for the reply, sir.

Yes most technical and science people fall under the TAL category so further processing is needed. You have to be patient and wait for the issues to resolve themselves. The TAL documents are available through Google search and the keywords are such that most technical people will have worked in some of these areas www.bu.edu/isso/files/pdf/tal.pdf

Yes unfortunately affirmative action was supposed to help disadvantaged groups but it also hurts other groups who are supposed to be advantaged but are not. And lower income people get hurt. While affirmative action is removed as a direct criteria, it can be used through essays which mention the students hardships due to their background. In fact this was mentioned by one of the judges. Otherwise, Asians may get 80 percent on the college seats if only standardised tests and GPA are considered. Now that would also cause problems in society as you may not want a caste system to develop like in India with all the negative consequences

@@Drganguli Good point! I would just like your thoughts on why giving 80% of seats to Asians is a disadvantage? If we are truly producing the best doctors, best engineers, and best scientists, I don't see the issue. I think it is nice to have Asians if Asian people are performing the best. I want my heart surgeon to be the best qualified person, not a diversity candidate. I don't really understand the argument on a caste system. I really do think the constitution was right and everyone is equal. We should try and look beyond race and just get the best people.

@@JingJao In multiethnic and multicultural societies the perceived dominance of any one group in some areas leads to a backlash from other groups, particularly is this dominant group is a numerical minority. So social scientists try to prevent this problem through perceived equitable distribution of resources among the minority groups

Well you have to correct them and say you are a PhD doctor.

You are most welcome

Yes many universities require GRE. During the pandemic many universities dropped GRE and SAT etc as students had a tough time giving these exams. But they are bringing it back. Check this article www.jamboreeindia.com/know-how/reversing-test-optional-policies-us-universities-bring-back-the-gre-gmat-sat-requirement/amp#4

In most cases they cover expenses as a basic level. Like for a single person living in a rented room, hostel or shared room close to the university who walks or takes public transportation. PhD students have to live very frugally else they will have to spend their personal or family funds.

You can apply to universities where metrics besides the GPA are needed. Europe is certainly an option as competition may be less. For USA your case may get better if you have good GRE scores. GPA alone does not matter. The courses where you got good grades should be in the major ie chemistry in your case. Project work and good references also add value.

Thank you

Yes good idea

Only in some fields is arxiv a good idea. Some journals have problems with accepting arxiv papers due to copyright issues. You need to check this out. In these fields conferences are used to make sure you have precedence in publication .

Not any more. I was a postdoc long ago.

There are local conferences held in most cities and universities for example at IIT etc in India. You can search for conferences or symposiums in Mechanical engineering area and submit an abstract or paper there. They also have poster sessions sometimes. These will be mentioned in the web page of the conference.

You are most welcome

Sir, after a PhD and postdoc in Physics from Bangalore, currently I am doing my 2nd postdoc at Montpellier, France. My field is experimental soft matter physics, with experience of more than 10 years. At this career stage I am looking for a more independent postdoc position, where I gain experience with applying for grants, and then progress towards something like a junior group leader... Would you suggest Europe or USA? -thanks for your time.

@@VimalaSridurai I think Europe is a nice place to do a postdoc. But if you want to have more growth you may need to move to an English language country like USA, Canada or UK. Or Australia and New Zealand. In these countries grants are key and the system is open to all types of immigrants.

Many scholars have reached great heights by using the postdoc well. For example see Postdoc superstar: a role model for doctorates! ua-cam.com/video/Wt0fz5PuRPY/v-deo.html

I am very happy to hear about that. Sometimes I wonder if anyone watches these technical videos as they are quite specialised and need a highly intelligent person to understand

@@Drganguli I hold a doctorate degree, specializing in industrial psychology, and I speak Arabic. How can I get the opportunity of a postdoctoral researcher in one of the European countries, knowing that my English is weak? Thank you, dear sir.

@user-py5ps9ec1b If you try for Central Europe then you will need your know a basic level of English to do research. In some cases you can get funding like from Humboldt foundation to study German in some depth. So you can try these options. Meanwhile try to improve your English as it is the lingua franca of global research and education.

@@Drganguli Does this funding require approval from the university first, or can I obtain it otherwise?

@@user-py5ps9ec1b For humboldt you have to find a host professor in Germany. Then you have to apply to the Humboldt foundation. Your university has to give you approval for the visit if you plan to come back and work there. You also need to write a research proposal and get 2-3 reference letters. It is a complex process. See my postdoc playlist for more information. How to get a host for a postdoc in Germany? ua-cam.com/video/OjtZ5yLvcbs/v-deo.html

Yes, that is often the best way to get PhD admission in Japan. But note you should contact professors, as only they are able to supervise PhD students in most cases and are often incharge of their research groups.

Both as you need to know basics well also. Most students fail in basic questions

Sr, ​@@DrganguliBasic question where sr!!

@@Anirban2050 Class 11 and 12 level math and first year college math.

Thank you very much

Well it depends on personal reasons also.

It is recommended but I don’t think it is compulsory. One thing that is important is that the professor should be different than the PhD guide in most cases. But then there are always exceptions so you should study past recipient’s for guidance

But, Why so much crazy in Computer science!! What is happened to Core Branch ( Mechanical engineering, Aerospace Engineering) ???

But you have to keep in mind that everyone does not like every major it is not just about job opportunities. Many people who like calculus, differential equations prefer the mechanical fields. Not all like logic, discrete math, compilers, data structures and programming languages and networking. So some people are jaded by the end of the third year of the bachelor’s degree.

Yes people are attracted by jobs and salary but only few people have affinity for computer science. In fact the skills in high school like calculus, matrices and physics, chemistry are directly related to mechanical, electrical and science fields. Computer science actually needs a different skill set like discrete math etc. Courses like compilers and networking are divergent to what is taught in high school

@@Anirban2050 I have mentioned aerospace in the list....Mechanical is also fine to some extent.... In modern times, people are mainly excelling in the fields written above and mechanical to some extent.... Now, try to understand the context

Yeah of course...​@@Nirgudduo

Thank you so much

Would it enhance my chances to go to the US as I want to go into the US and join the industry over there for a longer period.

Yes university of Tokyo is well known. Postdoc will look good from there. Make sure to publish some papers

You need to apply to a university with professors in your planned area of research. Good grades, gre scores etc will help. See this video PhD in USA for International Students! ua-cam.com/video/-3_RKjeGF7U/v-deo.html

If you have 4-5 journal papers you can get postdoc in many places in CFD. Europe is a likely place. Also Korea, Australia and Japan. See videos about different types of postdocs such as Foundation Postdoc vs Research Grant Postdoc! ua-cam.com/video/A_IbH0WE4Fg/v-deo.html

Well mostly in such cases internship or part time jobs in the campus are the options. Sometimes one can get options with other researchers in some centers etc. Some even return home during this time rather than spend money in staying. Internships abroad may also be possible. For example Get the DAAD RISE Professional Internship! ua-cam.com/video/ZIld5hALLMs/v-deo.html

Yes a letter from a professor will greatly strengthen your case. The task of finding a host is quite onerous and so once this is done the committee knows that there is someone in your domain who is willing to provide office space and guide you.

@@Drganguli thanks a lot Sir for your valuable opinion and feedback.

Thank you very much
