Sir, is it a basic course or a specialised course as per the NIDM definition ?

[GOPI KANTA GHOSH]

Great...more such courses must come

[Anil Kumar Gupta]

It is a specialised Course. However, candidates having relevant background and experience can apply for direct admission to this course as well.

Hi i am an environmental professional and i am very much interested in this course. As it is a specialized course am i eligible for the same without doing the basic course. There is no specific requirements given for this course in the website. Would be grateful if you kindly confirm.
