Notes

  1. The schedule as presented  is only indicative of how a typical student may  register for courses, but allows considerable flexibility to the student in choice of when to register for programme and open electives.
  2. Select students who wish to conduct their project work outside Delhi, e.g. those in special academic exchange programmes, may, on approval,  swap the Minor project with an OE/PE course usually taken in Semester III, and may also register for an additional OE/PE course in the Semester II.   The Minor Project and Independent Study courses may be taken in the summer in these special cases.
  3. 600 level courses are not available to undergraduate and dual degree students.
  4. 600 level programme elective courses may be taken by students only on approval of M Tech coordinator, since these are courses typically in undergraduate curricula, which are made available to PG students who have not taken equivalent courses earlier.
