The School runs a M.Sc. program in Computational and Integrative Sciences with specializations in Computational Biology and Complex Systems. The admission to the M. Sc. program is through two different modes as per details given in the admission procedure, one of which is supported by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), Government of India.

The program aims to provide a rigorous training and equipping the students with theoretical understanding and practical mastery in state-of-art applications of computational approaches and experimental techniques to model and analyze the biological and complex systems. In the first year of the program, the students are provided with conceptual knowledge in the physical sciences, biological sciences, mathematics, and statistics including data analytical skills required in the new phase of analysis and understanding of large-scale data. In the last year, students will be familiarized with computational skills, including methods in omics, mathematical modelling and computer simulation etc. followed by specialized research projects that apply the core skills taught in the previous semesters.

The curricular work leading to the award of M. Sc. degree shall be spread over a period of four semesters – one Monsoon Semester and one Winter Semester in each year, including both theory and laboratory courses. In addition, the students execute a research project/dissertation work in the last two semesters on a specific topic under the supervision of a faculty member and submit the report for evaluation followed by oral presentation defending the project/dissertation.
