ACADEMIC TIE-UPS
The University Grants Commission has introduced three types of degrees for students under the collaborative programmes-dual, joint and twinning
THE UGC has eased the process of collaboration between Indian and international education by approving dual and joint degrees with foreign universities. Students can now pursue a single course in both Indian and foreign institutions easily. This is part of the vision of UGC to broaden the scope of quality higher education for Indian students, permit better flexibility and reduce its supervisory position.
Previously, if an Indian and foreign higher education institution planned to collaborate, UGC had to be "satisfied” about the arrangement after an extensive vetting process. This ranged from examining MoUs between institutes, to issuing letters of approvals or rejections.
The programmes under these new amendments will be offered from undergraduate to PhD levels, and will directly come into effect from 2022-23 onwards. For PhD programmes, the students will be provided separate arrangements and supervision in the respective institutions. However, they will have to stay for a minimum of one semester at each institution. Courses available online or for distance learning will not come under this amendment.
UGC has introduced three types of degrees for students under such collaborative programmes-dual, joint and twinning degrees. But such degrees will be applicable to students in the same discipline, and at the same level. For instance, a pupil enrolled in a BA History programme in an Indian college can pursue part of her course at an international establishment and will be awarded at two levels, individually and concurrently, by both institutions. While the primary two programmes have been allowed under the outdated rules, there have been few takers, UGC chairperson Prof M Jagadesh Kumar stated.

IS THAT LEGAL?
Ignorance of law is no excuse. Here are answers to frequently asked queries regarding matters that affect us on a day-to-day basis
The Big Lie
In America, The Big Lie is an idiom used by Donald Trump's opponents and the media to describe his constant gripe about election fraud. Now, it seems more suited to another Republican, Congressman George Santos (right), who has been facing growing calls to resign after he admitted fabricating parts of his resume and biography since his election in New York last year.
Flying into the Sunset
Over 50 years since the first and original jumbo jet, the Boeing 747, took to the skies and revolutionized air travel, the last of the legendary aircraft (right) was delivered to a freight charter company, bringing down the curtain on one of aviation's most successful products.
Star Crossed
Actor and producer Alec Baldwin is a Hollywood legend, having starred in a range of movies, award winning TV sitcoms, and theatre. He was most recently seen in Mission Impossible Fallout, which is an apt description of his current situation.
Walkouts in the UK
An estimated half a million workers have gone on strike, shutting down thousands of schools, public transport and border disruption. It is the biggest day of industrial action for more than a decade.
Myanmar's Misery
Two years after the military coup ousted the elected government led by Aung San Suu Kyi, the brutal crackdown by the junta on so-called \"insurgents\" and civilian protesters has reached a new level with the use of air strikes, a new and deadly tactic in the ongoing civil war.
AMERICA'S ANGST
From messy, divisive politics to a series of mass shootings, and now black officers brutally beating another black man to death as seen in bodycam videos, America's domestic convulsions are cause for serious introspection
JUSTICE LEAGUE
There are few judicial appointment procedures in the world that are completely bereft of the overarching presence of either the executive or the legislature, or both. In the end, the judge is left with all the powers vested in him/her by the constitution to uphold the rule of law, within an atmosphere of external influences
