The dearth of faculty in University of Mysore (UoM) has affected the student-teacher ratio and also its overall rating which has dropped to ‘A’ from ‘A-plus’. Out of 667 teaching posts, the university currently has 272 posts and the guest lecturers are being appointed every year to deal with the shortage of teaching posts.
Disclosing this at the Academic Council meeting here on Thursday, Vice-Chancellor G. Hemantha Kumar said the student-teacher ratio has touched 1:25 and this was one of the key reasons for the drop in NAAC rating.
