SCOPE AND SYLLABUS OF COURSES SO 700 DISSERTATION
The student should prepare a dissertation under the supervision of a teacher appointed by the Board of Control in Sociology. She/He should demonstrate her/ his skills for the formulation of the research problem and the application of the tools of research. M.Phil, is one year course which includes three theory courses and dissertation. If the students are not able to complete that Dissertation within one year, they are entitled for a further extension of one year.
The M.Phil is a stepping stone to Ph.D work. In the M.Phil course both the theoretical and research inputs are given equal emphasis. Out of a total 600 marks, the three theory courses cover 300 marks, and the remaining 300 marks are allocated to research. We have observed that those who have done M.Phil produce better quality research in their Ph.D programme.
