MPS 780 / MPS 781 – Supervised Research I/II

The purpose of this independent research course is to give the students an opportunity to plan and execute the first stage of the graduate thesis. Each student first selects a topic of his/her interest in close cooperation with the supervisor, conducts a bibliographic research and writes up a proposal (format to be advised by the supervisor).

Prerequisite: Division approval

MPS780/781 is a compulsory course for all students admitted in AY09-10 Sem1 onwards and current students who have not completed the min. number of coursework requirement.
