Mr. Sadacharam i think for the ph.d guide is necessary if you are a working is a faculty member in the relevant subject ( qualification prescribed by the UGC) and having experience of 5 years than  you can pursue your ph.d as a self guide and rules are different university to university most of the universities follow your rules regarding this.

hello sir romba baatikkapattu irukkeengala?

not possible

Dear Sadacharam,

        Is it Possible.  Already  two persons finished  the Ph.D.

                         With Regards,

Greetings Great Librarians,

this is a question I am interested in. Can one carry out a PhD Research without a Guide? Why must a research scholar who has been active in research and publication of findings need a Guide for a PhD research?

There are cases where the research student will come up with contemporary ideas and problems that need to be investigated and solutions proffered, but the Guide may not like such topic. In addition, some Guides prefer traditional-based issues in LIS, thereby neglecting recent developments that need to be improved upon.

I think this needs to be addressed. A research scholar may be allowed (if he/she is capable) to carry out research on his own, after which his report will be forwarded to reputable professors for assessment, whether it actually contributed to the growth of knowledge.

I think this should be given consideration.
