PhD Admission 2026-27 — Online Application Form
Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology (MNNIT) Allahabad has started the PhD admission process for the Even Semester of Academic Year 2026-27. The institute’s admission page was updated on 5 November 2026, and the online application window on the Samarth portal runs from 5 November to 16 November 2026. Fourteen doctoral programmes are open, covering engineering, science, management, humanities and social sciences, and GIS and remote sensing.
Candidates can apply online through the Samarth portal at mnnitadm.samarth.edu.in, and the MNNIT admission page at mnnit.ac.in/admission carries the link to the portal. The application fee is ₹1,000 for General, OBC and EWS candidates and ₹500 for SC, ST and PwD candidates, as shown on the programme cards on the portal. The institute has not yet published a detailed brochure for this cycle, so the detailed eligibility criteria are not stated beyond the portal’s ‘MNNIT Admission Process’ basis for every programme; the Computer Science and Engineering PhD lists 40 seats, and seat counts for other programmes are shown on their programme cards. Applicants should check the portal and the admission page for the brochure and further dates, including the entrance test and interview schedule, when the institute releases them.
