The first batch of the four-year degree courses will begin only from the next academic year. Existing degree batches will complete in three years itself, Higher Education Minister R. Bindu has said.
Addressing a meeting of college Principals and management representatives in Thrissur on Saturday, she said a uniform academic-examination calendar for all universities in the State was under consideration.
“The arrangements for starting four-year degree courses are ready. The Higher Education department will give the rules and regulations to the universities. The universities can implement these directives with necessary modifications. There will be changes in the post graduate courses too once the four-year degree courses come into effect,” the Minister said.
