In April 2008, the Indian-German Graduate School (INDIGO) for "Advanced Organic Synthesis for a Sustainable Future" was constituted with funding from the Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst (DAAD), BASF (Ludwigshafen) and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories (Hyderabad).
This Graduate School offers a three-year PhD program in chemistry. Students from the Indian and German partner institutes will have the opportunity to accomplish a six-month student exchange program.
