PhD students the slaves of proffessors
by leo kurian on Nov 06, 2006 01:56 PM

Ok another example.. Being a PhD student in india is the worst job u can take. most proffessors in india despite they r graduated from abroad or in india, treat there PhD students as slaves. In most cases the poor students are metally tortured and under constant high pressure. pressure to publish, publish or perish is the motto for the proffessor. In order to keep himself safe proffessors always on the students. Except in renouned institutes like NCBS, everywere PhD students r thououghly oppressed and they dont raise the voices or they dont have an option. when will this change in our country???
