Interviews for CSE Dept. PhD admissions will be held on 14th, 15th, 16th and 17th May, 2019. Candidates meeting the shortlisting criteria are required to report to the IIT Delhi CSE Department Office in Bharti building (Block IIA) Room 501 (4th floor) by 1:00 pm on the starting day of respective cycle (see below). Directions on how to reach are available here.

The approximate format will be as follows. The selection process for each candidate will consist of two rounds:
1. First Round: It will consist of a screening based on an online/written/programming test from 02:00 pm to 6:00 pm. This will be on the first day of selection.
2. Second Round (Written): Those qualifying the first round will be asked to appear for another written test on the second day of selection from 8:00 am to 9:00 am. This written test will be non-qualifying (i.e., will not be used as a filter by itself).
3. Second Round (Interview): Those qualifying the first round (on the first day) will also be appearing for an in-person interview during the period 9:30 am - 6:00 pm on the second day of selection.
Each candidate should plan on staying there for 1.5 days depending on their selection cycle.
