Multiple entry-exit, biannual admissions in UG, PG

The changes aim to set a new standard for the awarding of UG and PG degrees, ensuring that the institutions can meet the diverse needs of students.

Speaking with this newspaper, UGC chairman Prof M Jagadesh Kumar said, "The Draft UGC (Minimum Standards of Instructions in the Award of UG and PG Degrees) Regulations 2024 aim to transform higher education in India by introducing greater flexibility, removal of disciplinary regicide, inclusivity, and multidisciplinary learning opportunities for students."

He said the regulations facilitate biannual admissions in higher education institutions (HEI) if they are prepared to introduce them. This allows students to enrol twice in a year - in July or August, and January or February.
