The department offers a two-year M.Sc. program which involves pursuing a one-year research project in addition to usual coursework. The program allows you to choose from a variety of elective courses together with the compulsory ones. Performance of students each semester is continuously assessed through regular quizzes, class tests, and mid- and end-semester examinations.
