As per the agreement signed by Dr Jiwen He, Professor and Chair, Department of Mathematics at University of Houston and Dr Dinesh Singh, Distinguished Professor, Shoolini University, the Mathematics Department of the University of Houston has offered Shoolini University to admit five of its graduate students into their Graduate Ph. D programme every year. 

The students recommended by Shoolini University would be evaluated and tentatively approved by the University of Houston a year in advance. They would study in the Solan campus of the University for a year and complete their programme at the Texas campus of the University of Houston. The selected students would be entitled to a stipend for first year and fellowships subsequently as per the rules of the University.
