Outside Curriculum Projects: The aim of the project is to test independent research skills that the student has acquired during their time at the university. This is a mandatory requirement for PHD applicants to showcase research goals. If a student has outside lab project exposure that acts as a huge advantage to securing funds.
Publishing Journal/Articles – Although publishing journal or article is not mandatory but it definitely adds up to research skill and exposure. If the journal published is peer reviewed then definitely it appears as a standout journal. Also the measure of journal quality is a critical point of consideration. The higher the Impact Factor, the more important and prestigious the journal within its particular field.

Internship in the subject of research will bring in practical implementation of the skill acquired. The tenure of internship can vary between 6 months to 2 years.
