The department of Science & Humanities fosters a diverse yet very unique and distinctive role in a technological institute like NIT-Nagaland. The pursuit of holistic science and technological knowledge would rather be incomplete without consideration of liberal arts, economics, social, behavioural sciences and allied sciences. It is an endeavor of this department so that students find application of science to everyday life, moral and social understanding.
At present subjects like Chemistry, Economics, English, Environmental Studies, Mathematics, Physics etc. are engaged by the department. Apart from the under-graduate courses, research curriculum (Ph. D. Programme) has already been put to roll for both Science and Social Science subjects. Besides, one integrated Master programme (BS MS programme) in Materials Science is also continuing in the department since 2014. Admission to this programme is done as per the provisions of Central Seat Allocation Board (CSAB), which governs the entire admission programme to B. Tech courses.
