It is my pleasure to announce that, ICSSR-NASSDOC has revised the amount for acquisition of theses to Rs. 3000/- for both hard copy with soft version and Rs. 2000/- for hard copy only.
National Social Science Documentation Centre (NASSDOC), ICSSR has a library for the social science community. Ph.D. Theses in social sciences (approved by the Indian universities) form a part of its core collection. Research scholars from different region visit NASSDOC to consult this collection. As a national institution, NASSDOC aims to build a truly representative collection of Ph.D. theses in each of the areas that make up the social sciences. Ph.D. dissertations on India by Indian / foreign students approved by the foreign universities are also acquired.
Procedure for Acquisition
NASSDOC closely scrutinises the announcements made by the universities regarding award of Ph.D. degree. The periodical 'University News' is also scanned regularly for this purpose.
Thereafter, a letter is sent to the scholars requesting them to send the details of his research work, i.e. synopsis containing scope, methodology , objectives and major findings. The details are examined by a screening committee. Final decision on acquisition of these is taken on the basis of the recommendations of this committee.
