MTech (CS)

PCB

The selection test for M. Tech.in Computer Science and M. Tech.in Cryptology and Security will consist of two parts.

  • Test MMA (objective type) in the forenoon session is the 1st part, and
  • Test PCB (short answer type) in the afternoon session is the 2nd part.

The PCB test will consist of two groups.

  • Group A (30 Marks) : All candidates have to answer questions on analytical ability and mathematics at the undergraduate level.
  • Group B (70 Marks) : A candidate has to choose exactly one of the following five sections, from which questions have to be answered:
    • Mathematics, (ii) Statistics, (iii) Physics, (iv) Computer Science, and (v) Engineering and Technology. SSS

While questions in the first three sections will be at postgraduate level, those

for the last two sections will be at B. Tech. level.
