ELECTIVE SUBJECTS FOR INTERMEDIATE
In the spirit of trying to better itself Naqsh works continuously on enhancing its facilities and improving course offering. Proposal for addition of subjects at intermediate level is in pipe line. The subjects are:
Traditional Minature Paining
Calligraphy and Naqashi
Sculpture and Ceramics
Currently the students of intermediate select three subjects. A student who opts fine arts is constrained to select two elective subjects of entirely different disciplines. Addition of these subjects at intermediate level will provide reliable base to the students who aspire to study fine arts at still higher levels. To assess their aptitude the drawing test is given (for the intermediate course only).
