Course programme
The Master of Philosophy is a one year full time programme done in two
semesters. The course is in two parts. The first part deals with course
work and second part deals with the dissertation. The course work
involves two compulsory papers and two optional papers. The compulsory
papers focus on methods in social science. They are intended to train
students in the conceptual and methodological aspects of research in
political science. The optional papers are designed on the basis of the
current strength of specialisation of the faculty. Students could choose
the optional papers according to their area of interest. The teaching
method involves lectures, presentations and seminars. Students are
encouraged to make presentations, do book reviews and write term papers
on topics being discussed. These papers are also discussed in the class.
The second part of the course is a dissertation in an area chosen by the
candidate. The dissertation is primarily based on secondary sources. The
student will have an opportunity to review literature in a particular
area. The dissertation topic is approved by the board of studies of the
department.
