Minor Programs
Minor programs are being offered in certain areas as options for integrated first degree students with the intent of encouraging them to add focus to their supplemental learning (outside a major area) as well as recognizing and certifying the knowledge obtained in an area that is outside of their major area. A minor would allow a Department (or multiple Departments) to offer a package of courses in an area/sub-area to students for whom this area/sub-area would not be part of their (major) program (e.g. a minor in Finance for students who are not pursuing a program in Finance). A minor will be recognized by means of a separate certificate. At present Sixteen minor programs viz. Minor in Aeronautics, Computational Economics, Computing and Intelligence, Data Science, English Studies, Entrepreneurship, Film and Media, Finance, Management, Materials Science and Engineering, Philosophy, Economics and Politics (PEP), Physics, Public Policy, Robotics and Automation, Supply Chain Analytics and Water and Sanitation have been designed which are selectively being offered at different Campuses. The Minor programs are described under "Details of programmes".
