Supersymmetric Standard Model has been built to solve the hierarchy problem which is encountered whenever Standard Model is incorporated into a theory with a larger mass scale. Experimentally, one of the first signals of physics beyond Standard Model is provided by the atmospheric neutrino experiments which indicate the existence of at least one non-zero neutrino mass. An interpretation of both solar and atmospheric neutrino anomalies in terms of neutrino oscillations would lead to specific patterns for neutrino masses and mixing. In this thesis, we studied the possibilities of generating the required neutrino mass patterns in the context of supersymmetric standard models with lepton number (L) violation. After an introduction to supersymmetric standard models in Chapter 1, we give an overview of neutrino phenomenology in chapter 2. Chapter 3 discusses analytical and semi-analytical solutions to Renormalisation Group Equations (RGE) with lepton number violating couplings in the superpotential. Neutrino masses with bilinear L violation in the context of gauge mediated supersymmetric models (GMSB) are discussed in Chapter 4, where 2-loop RGE for the parameter $\Delta B_i$ are presented. Chapter 5 discusses neutrino mass structure when L violation is through trilinear lepton number violating terms. Chapter 6 discusses RG enhancement of neutrino masses and neutrino mass bounds on trilinear lepton number violating couplings in the context of mSUGRA. Chapter 7 summarises general features of neutrino masses within these models and contains overall conclusions based on the work presented in the thesis.
