theory papers and four theory based lab courses (practical papers) and shall be common and compulsory
to all admitted learners . For M. Sc. -II ( semester III and IV ) there shall be specializations in various
subjects offered by the concerned Institution(s). Four Specializations viz . 1) Ques tioned Document s,
