This has been recently upgraded to DSA-I status (2007-2012), with a special focus on themes of globalization and public and public space.
Three programmes of study are offered leading to the M.A., M.Phil and Ph.D. degrees in Sociology. The department will participate in the Five Year Integrated Masters Programme in Social Sciences from 2007-2008. At the end of 3 years students will join the department for the M.A. degree.
