  1. Sir,
    I have completed my M.Sc in Microbiology at JKC College, Guntur affiliated to Nargarjuna University in 2005. I have a teaching experience of 10 years for PG students in Agricultural Microbiology at MES College Marampally, affiliated to MG University, Kerala. I also qualified ICAR NET in 2017.
    I want to know whether I should take the entrance test for phd or not. Also let me know whether I could do phd on part time.
