There were sessions on research methodology, identifying and using different sources for our research work pertaining to Ancient, Medieval, Maratha or Modern and Contemporary period.

"The Ph.D. coursework conducted by the Vaze Ph.D. centre in History was a fruitful and informative experience. Many diverse themes and topics were covered like Gazetteers, Oral History, Environmental History, etc. It did not feel repetitive and it added more to what was already taught before at the TYBA and MA levels. The resource persons were well versed with their topics and helpful too. Overall, it was a really great journey and very helpful for writing our Ph. D. thesis."
