Integrated M.Sc. + M.Tech. (Computer Science)

 

Integrated MSc + MTech (Computer Science) with an option for specialization in Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, and Advance Networks & Systems is a three-year (six-semester) full- time Master’s degree programme offered by the Department of Computer Science.  The programme saves one year of the students intending to acquire higher degree. The programme has dedicated two semesters of dissertation with an objective to inculcate and refine research attitude of students. The research project will be under the close supervisions of faculty members and equips students to work in  R & D institutions, industry or pursue career in academics in future.

 

Minimum Eligibility

12 years of schooling + a 3 or 4 year Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a relevant area* with mathematics as a subject either at the Bachelor’s level or at the 10+2 (12th class) level from an institution recognised by the government of any of the SAARC countries, with a minimum of 55% marks in the aggregate or an equivalent grade. Candidates who have a 2-year Bachelor's degree and have cleared the first year of the Master's programme are also eligible.

*Indicative List of Relevant Areas:

    • Computer Science and Engineering
    • Computer Engineering
    • Computer Applications
    • Information Technology
    • Any other Science/Engineering areas having at least one-fifth Computer Science courses
