Admission Process and Number of Students

Admission for each batch of MA in Population Studies programme will be opened once a year. A candidate shall apply in the prescribed form, obtained from the office of the Department or Dean’s Office, following payment of necessary fees. In order to take an admission, Dean’s office or the department will run an eligibility test/qualifying examination as entrance examination. On the basis of merit of entrance examination, name list of students to be admitted will be published.

Marks obtained by the student at bachelor level could also be another basis of framing merit of admission. There will be 50 students in one section in all disciplines and number of sections will be determined on the basis of availability of teaching faculty and basic infrastructure. Student pressure, as number of students applying for admission, will also be kept in mind while determining the number of sections. However, there will be at least one section for each discipline when student number counts below 50.
