In order to earn eligibility to conduct research, the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) students are required to appear for NET examinations. CSIR offers opportunities for research in science streams such as mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, geology and marine science where all the students are required to appear for NET exams.

While the dates for PET have been adjourned, it is vital for the educational institution to keep a track on the process of preparing the timetable for its students beforehand rather than postponing them later.
