    • The notification did not mention The School of Language and Literature in the JRF Category of Admissions. Hence you need to contact the concerned department directly. Generally concerned Department/ Schools will have discretion regarding procedure of admission for JRF holders.

    • There is no direct admission provision for Computers and Systems Sciences. You may have to write written exam / viva voce or both. JNU offers Ph.D./ M.Tech. in Computer and System Sciences and Computational and Integrative Sciences.

    • JNU is not offering Graduate Programs in Engineering such as BE/ B.Tech. So there is no question of offering any engineering course in correspondence / distance mode.

      M.Phil in Psychology is offered at Center for Educational Studies, School of Social Sciences, JNU. But the major focus would be on Educational Psychology. Please try to go through detailed prospectus available on JNU website.
