Reproduced from the University of Mumbai syllabus for M.Sc. (Information Technology) under NEP 2020, in force from the academic year 2024-25. Wording, unit numbering and lecture allocation are as printed in that syllabus. The PDF above is the syllabus's own page, unaltered.
The complete syllabus
This subject is cut from the University circular for the whole diploma. Open it here if you want the whole thing rather than a single subject.
Use Part 1 or Part 2 NEP first so the module scope matches your Mumbai University exam.
Use MSc IT notes only after confirming the semester units and topic order.
Open MSc IT question papers after the syllabus check so revision follows the same course structure.
