The first-semester curriculum for the four-year undergraduate programmes (FYUP) at Delhi University was approved on Thursday based on the recently adopted Under Graduate Curriculum Framework (UGCF).
The Executive Council, the highest decision-making body of the university, made the choice. However, Rajpal Singh Pawar and Seema Das, two council members, disagreed with the choice. “All agenda-item courses’ FYUP curricula have been approved by the executive council. Two members released dissenting statements, “A councilman informed PTI this. The revised curriculum will be used beginning with the 2022–2023 school year. After receiving approval from the Academic Council on August 3, the syllabus was submitted to the Executive Council for final approval.
The Undergraduate Curriculum Framework-2022 (UGCF-2022), developed by a National Education Policy cell, had been adopted by the Executive Council in February. Over 100 undergraduate course syllabi approved by a standing committee were laid up for discussion during the meeting. The list of courses includes BSc in Electronic Science, BSc (Hons) in Microbiology, BA (Hons) in Business Economics, and BA (Hons) in Multi-Media and Mass Communication. The course committees that created the syllabi approved them with the help of a standing committee. Five academics make up a course committee: two from the relevant department and three from other universities.
