Overview
Above is a list of tracks (also referred to as “concentrations”) available to the students of CSD. Tracks offer students an opportunity to focus in specific sub-areas of CSD. Students may take up a track to focus in specific sub-areas of CSD. However, a track is not a requirement for students to graduate. A student would be able to graduate as long as he/she fulfils the graduation requirements.
Refer here for the track overview for Intake Y2020 and subsequent batches.
