ObjectivesThe name of the programme shall be Master's Degree in Computer Management (M.C.M.)
The knowledge and skills required to plan, design and build complex application software systems are highly valued in all industry sectors including business, health, education and the services. The basic objective of the Masters’ Degree in Computer Management (M.C.M.) is to provide to the country a steady stream of competent young men and women with the necessary knowledge, skills and foundations for acquiring a wide range of rewarding careers into the rapidly expanding world of Information Technology.
a. The first two semesters of the programme is a mix of computer-related and general business courses.

In case the result of the internal test as above, results in lower marks than the original, the original figure of the marks will prevail. In short, the rule is higher of the two figures of the marks.
However, the institute will not administer any internal test, for any subject for those candidates who have already scored 40% or more marks in the internal examination.
