UGC replaces BA and Bsc. with B.voc courses in 200 colleges........

Conventional courses like BA and BSc being offered for decades by universities may be phased out and replaced by Bachelor of Vocational Education courses prescribed by UGC , its vice chairman H Devaraj said on Thursday.

"However, it will not happen immediately. The transformation in the vocational education will be made, say, in the next 10 years,".

B.Voc course would be introduced in about 200 colleges - 100 each in polytechnic and Arts Colleges - from the next academic year, he said, adding many more need-based vocational courses would be introduced gradually.

He said UGC would allocate Rs.25,000 crore to private institutions under Rashtriya Ucchatar Shiksha Abhiyan from the total of Rs.50,000 crore alloted under 12th plan.

Colleges would receive funds based purely on their performance, some indicators of which would be faculty availability, their qualification, research done by them, infrastructure and student strength.
Educational institutions need more accountability to elevate India to greater heights, he said and pointed out that even countries like the US and the UK do not spend as much as India for higher education.www.teacherharyana.blogspot.com (Recruitment , vacancy , job , news)
