Re: [MTC Global] Do not award fancy degrees; UGC asks universities

Similar situation was existing when SEFIs started running
Engineering Programs under fancy names (just to increase intake!)
like BE (Structure), BE (Construction Management), BE (Industrial
Egg), BE (Automobile Egg), BE (Mechatronics),etc. These degrees were
not approved by the Public Service Commissions hence graduates
having such or similar fancy degrees were not eligible candidates
for employment.

Therefore, uniform nomenclatures is necessary published through a
Gazette.

>The University Grants Commission (UGC) has directed universities to
abide by its norms for awarding degrees. It has pointed out that
universities advertised in national dailies about degrees with
nomenclature that the Commission has not notified in the gazette.The
UGC circular has pointed out that candidates with such degrees faced
litigation at a later stage and were denied certificates even after
they cleared the National Eligibility Test. In July, the UGC issued
a notification with details of the nomenclature of degrees that
could be awarded.Reportedly, there are many state-run universities
awarding fancy degrees. A premier college in Coimbatore, affiliated
to Bharathiar University, offers a three-year B. Com programme under
the following nomenclatures: e-commerce; computer application;
professional accounting; accounting and finance; retail marketing;
business process and services; financial system; and foreign trade.
Over 2,000 students pursue these programmes in the college.C.
Pichaandy, Vice-President of the Association of University Teachers
said, “The State and deemed universities should not violate the
UGC rules. Students faced problems when BA English Literature was
offered as BA Language and Literature. This is a subversion of the
UGC rules, and we have alerted the university [to the violation]
time and again,†reported Hindu.
