Providing students with a greater degree of freedom in customising their courses by opting for subject combinations of their choice, the four-year programmes will differ from the existing courses with an overhauled curricula that prioritise skill enhancement and overseas compatibility.
Higher Education Minister R. Bindu said here on Friday that the reform would enable students to pursue three broad pathways, viz., three-year UG degree, four-year UG honours degree, and four-year UG honours with research degree.
