Besides the regular programmes, the weekend programmes will benefit those who are already in their chosen profession. “People expect the university to organise courses for professionals. So, we came up with these weekend programmes”, said Professor Yogesh Singh, Controller of Examination, GGSIP.

Students who want to pursue MBA can now pursue options such as Consultancy Management, Banking & Insurance, Real Estate and Disaster Management. And those opting for MTech may choose between Engineering Physics, Nano Science & Technology, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science & Engineering, Information Technology, Digital & Wireless Communication, VLSI Design, Signal Processing, RF & Microwave Engineering, and Information Security and Digital Communication.
