About
Understanding rapidly evolving national and global politics and socio-economy cannot be achieved through singular approach. Program in integrated science therefore allows students to develop and apply their knowledge from a variety of coherent course, which leads to developing the body of knowledge and policy to address the problems and design appropriate interventions. The Doctor of Philosophy Program in Integrated Science aims to assist students in cultivating upper-level knowledge, multi-disciplinary specialization and ability to integrate knowledge within the sciences in understanding, analyzing and critiquing social phenomena. The program also aims to produce socially responsible scholars with moral and professional integrity and a player in social change movement.
