This Professor gives the best advise out there online in RU-vid for free. Gem of a human being. You won’t see a lot of Professor doing what he does. A lot of Professor only gives advice in office hours or if you are lucky enough to be the Professor friend, student or family.
Dear Professor Sambhara, I am so grateful to you for uploading this video. I would be starting with a PhD in Operations Research this fall, and this video has been very eye opening and inspiring for me.
The main challenge for desi guys doing research in US - . Dealing with someone on phone (eg - girl friend ) in India while sitting in US . The day night problem is a real issue in such case it is a challenge . These guys stays up all night dealing with this and next day they can’t be at work in US . Even if they go they can’t work because of lack of sleep and distractions .
When choosing advisor make sure that the student chose a professor who is midway through his career . Working under an Assistant professor is a bad idea and the same applies to the one who is close to retirement. For mental health one has to make sure that they don’t work with a micro managing advisor . You don’t want him to check on you every day , texting or giving you phone calls . He should only give you direction and then stay way until one on one meetings to see progress . Usually when you have a micromanaging boss the student get exhausted , they overthink , experience insomnia that even effects their personal life . Check what the lab alumni is doing if they still continue in academia that is a great sign - it shows that they loved the experience in the lab prior to where they are now . Usually Indian students need a push to work because that is what they experienced in India . but what research actually needs is self motivated individuals - this has to come from inside and not from outside . Only self motivated individuals become ultimately successful in scientific research at least .

I am going for my master's degree in business analytics to university of bath in September and and I am thinking of doing a PhD in the same field any advice sir?
Great video Professor ! Could you please make a video about how professors maintain a healthy research pipeline, get their teaching done and also provide service to the school/discipline ? How do some prolific scholars publish one FT 50 after the other? Is publishing more about smart work than hard work? Request you to focus on fresh PhD's / young faculty. It boggles my mind to see how some scholars work on multiple FT50 papers in the US while in India we struggle with 2 or 3 'A' manuscripts. Is their a secret sauce? Is it a product of their training as PhD scholars? Any advice would be much appreciated ! Regards, Sudeep

Always motivating and always at a a Best......love you so so much professor. The thought that you just brought to my mind.... That how many can earn that doctorate degree. How many can say that I'm dr. Chaitanya sambhara and professors I want to say same thing in my life
GRE or IELTS, which one do we need to get in Ph.D. programme in USA? I'm doing Ph.D. (first year) in Genetics and Plant Breeding at CCSHAU, Hisar, India but still i want to go US for Ph.D.
Sir, Your videos are very informative. I am an engineer and I completed my masters two years back in US and now I really think that I should pursue a PHD education. How would you compare Duke and MIT. Which university will better prepare me as a researcher. Thank you
@@DesiAmericanProfessor Yes Sir! You said :- "And when you have seen enough professors by going through their doctoral classes,you can see which kind of professor you get along well with". What are those *Doctoral classes* which help one in the selection of a suitable advisor?
Sir, after my senior secondary, I have done a three-year diploma, post-completion of that, I am now pursuing my three-year bachelor's degree, now I aspire to do MS from the USA, am I eligible for the same?
Hi, Professor this is my second time u have first time ask me watch the 3 video about PHD but it does not contain about how much stipend does PHD earned ? Does all PHD gets stipend ? Can you work part time after u got the stipend ? And with the stipend will you able to save some money after 4 years for future as u have said u should have one year rent to survive . IF you could spare 10 minute and make on this question will be grateful
too many factors come in. How much is the stipend? Depending on the university and the department stipend could be as low as $12k per annum and as high as $50k per annum. Depending on the location, your expenses can be low to high. I cannot tell. You can get to know all this only when you actually get admission and they mention your stipend in your admission letter. Regarding having enough savings for rent, it was not for students. It was meant for working professionals. It is hard for students to save that much if not impossible.
Is it difficult to get admission in PhD without articles? I just have practical experience and work in embassy. Can I get TA with practical experience? Or is it better to enter MA first? Thinking of going to US or Canada. Can I take my 2 kids to US after I enter PhD or is it better to go to Canada?
