Joint Masters programme 2023-24 is a new venture conducted by School of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology, Mahatma Gandhi University and Department of Physics and Department of Chemistry, Kannur University. The syllabus of the joint programme is designed in a way that students can avail the facilities and expertise of both the Universities. Students can choose either Mahatma Gandhi University or Kannur University as their parent institution. During the course, they will get an opportunity for internship from an industrial organization. Final semester of the programme consists of a six months project at a reputed research institute either in India or abroad thereby giving more job and research opportunities to students.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

During the course, students can spend equal time at Mahatma Gandhi University and Kannur University. In the first semester students can attend classes conducted at their parent university centres. The classes will be on hybrid mode with joint online classes from both the Universities. Second semester classes will be organized by Kannur University, where the students from Mahatma Gandhi University can spend their second semester at Kannur University campus.
