The degree can be pursued as a full-time course, part-time course, correspondence, or distance mode.

The MA programme is one of the most popular and sought-after courses among candidates after completing their bachelor's degree. The MA programme provides theoretical understanding in disciplines such as psychology, social studies, management, and politics, among others.

Students in the MA programme are taught both theoretical and practical components. Candidates interested in pursuing a Master of Arts degree must be dedicated and focused on the subject of their choice. A master's degree takes more willpower and fortitude than a bachelor's degree because the individual needs to conduct extensive research on the subject.
