The Four-Year Undergraduate Programme (FYUGP) approved by the University Grants Commission (UGC) is designed in accordance with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. This program introduces a flexible and multidisciplinary approach to higher education, allowing students to shape their learning experience based on their interests and career aspirations.
The program extends over four years, with multiple entry and exit options to enhance accessibility. Students can receive a UG certificate after one year, a UG diploma after two years, a bachelor's degree after three years, and a bachelor's degree with honours or research after four years. The credit structure includes 120 credits for a three-year UG degree and 160 credits for a four-year UG honours degree. Those interested in research specialization must secure at least 75% in the first six semesters.
A key feature of the program is its Choice-Based Credit System (CBCS), which enables students to transition from a three-year UG program to a four-year UG program through bridge courses. Additionally, students who exit the program early can re-enter within three years, with the flexibility to complete their degree within a maximum of seven years.
