The first year of the MA program is designed to give students a strong grounding in a multidisciplinary approach to Humanities and all students will have to take courses in English, Sociology, and History irrespective of their specialization. We believe that this approach strengthens the critical thinking and knowledge base of the students. This is also more in line with international practice. The second year of the program is geared towards a more in-depth study of courses in the core discipline (English/Sociology/History) culminating in a substantial research project (thesis) in the student’s area of interest.
We encourage our students to pursue their dreams and aspirations. Several of our students have applied to programs abroad and been accepted, often with full funding. It is the responsibility of the students to research the programs and institutions that support their research interests. Faculty at MCH are available for advice and consultations. If the student has demonstrated a good track-record in the academic and extra-curricular work, faculty may support their applications with recommendation letters. Any support from faculty is at their personal discretion. Students are advised to plan their applications with responsibility and attention, and the faculty is happy to help students who have a positive and collaborative work-ethic.?
