The Annual IDRBT Doctoral Colloquium is a part of the Institute's efforts towards attaining leadership in technology research related to Banking. This colloquium provides an opportunity for researchers pursuing doctoral research (Ph.D) from reputed institutions such as IITs, IIMs, and NITs to present and discuss their research ideas.

Apart from sessions wherein students pursuing PhD share their research and get feedback from the academic community, the colloquium features workshops and panel discussions on emerging issues in technology research, with the aim of enriching the next generation of technocrats. The colloquium involves extensive participation of faculty members and technical experts from IDRBT as well as from other top technical institutes, banks, financial institutions, and industry as reviewers, presenters and members of jury.
