IIT Madras Begins Registration for MA

IIT Madras: The Department of Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) of Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) has invited operations from campaigners with valid GATE scores in subject code XH (Humanities & Social Sciences) for admission to two-year masters programs (MA) in Development Studies, English, and Economics.

Campaigners with a valid GATE score can apply through the MTech and MA admission gate, mtechadm.iitm.ac.in. The last date to apply is April 7.

During MA at IIT Madras, scholars needed to complete a minimum of 200 credits to be eligible for a degree. Each stream will have 25 seats for Indian scholars and seats for foreign scholars will be supernumerary.

The scholars of each stream will have the option of upgrading to a Ph.D. program as per the Institute guidelines, IIT Madras said.

Speaking about the restructured MA programs, Prof. Jyotirmaya Tripathy, Head, Dept. of HSS, said, “Historically we’ve been leaders among IITs in offering degrees in liberal arts. Given the changing requirements of the time, we’ve restructured our program to feed that section of scholars who want to pursue a career path that gets the best of liberal education along with market readiness in an environment that’s conducive to creativity and reflection. This is on top of the world-class structure and the lure of being tutored by some of the finest minds of the country in an institution that has been constantly ranked as number one in the country.”
