Course Curriculum Overview
CHS is the best department for doing master's and PhD in history in India. Historians like Bipin Chandra, Romila Thapar, and Aditya Mukherjee have been faculty members here so did a master's here has always been my dream. There is 1 professor for every 7-10 students in master's. there are two tutorial+discussions instead of term papers which accumulate 50 marks and one end sem exam takes place for every course for 50 marks.
