All academic departments of
CIIT provide exceptional facilities for conducting research work leading to MS and
PhD degrees. These facilities include, among others, good libraries, well equipped
laboratories, state-of-the-technology computer labs, internet access, and an atmosphere
for learning and research. A graduate scholar has unqualified access to all facilities
available in either the concerned department or in other allied departments of CIIT.
The broad objectives
of these programs are not only to keep pace with the expanding frontiers of knowledge
but also to provide research training relevant to the present social and economic
uplift of the country.
Primarily, a program
leading to MS/PhD should impart education and training to a scholar in the area
of interest for pursuing graduate studies, to inculcate in the student a spirit
for learning, and develop in him faculties of observation, critical assessment,
hypothesis testing and report writing. Graduate Programs at CIIT have been tailored
to equip scholars with the necessary skills required to successfully accomplish
all these tasks.
CIIT seeks to provide
optimal intellectual and social climate for advanced study. Strengths are built
upon and professional development is promoted to prepare graduate students to assume
leadership positions in academia, private industry and public service.
