Semester-Wise Program
The programs offered by IGIS, namely short courses, diploma course, MS and PhD degrees, and the growing needs of the industry in the country demand that the curricula are continuously updated. Before the commencement of a semester, the Departmental and the Faculty Boards of Studies convene to deliberate on the contents of the courses, enhancements in the laboratories, acquisition of modern hardware and software, and ordering of new releases for the library – all to ensure that the student of IGIS gets the state-of-the-art resources available to him/her.
