| UGC gave permission to do two degree courses simultaneously |
The University Grants Commission, while giving a major verdict, has given permission to the students to pursue two degree courses simultaneously. The only condition is that one of them should be regular and the other should be in open, distance or online mode.
UGS Allows Students to Pursue 2 Degree
Courses Together: The UGC has given a big decision to
allow students to pursue two degrees simultaneously. That is, now you can do
BBA from Delhi University, IGNOU or BBA from any other distance education
institute together in the same year. For the last several years, students used
to complain that they cannot do two courses simultaneously, whereas at times it
was necessary for their future plans. But earlier it was considered wrong to
take two degree courses in the same year simultaneously, which was not allowed.
But now students can do this. However, permission has also been obtained with a
condition here, under which one of these two degree courses can be a regular
course but the other should be an open, distance learning or online mode
course. That is, both degree courses cannot be regular. The UGC has taken this
decision considering a proposal.
There can also be separate streams and
separate institutions -
The most special thing about this relaxation given
by the UGC is that students can also choose to take the course from two
different streams. That is, science and humanities can be selected together
provided your institute is giving its permission. You can study together from
two different institutes or universities. Or if the same institute offers both
courses then you can do it from there also.
The committee while talking about this said, since
the issue of minimum attendance is associated with regular courses, the
committee has the option to do another course with distance learning. UGC
Secretary Rajneesh Jain believes that this will increase career prospects for
students.

then somewhere their pattern is being changed. In the midst of all these new
changes, students are not able to sit well at times. Along with this, many
times they have their own reasons, which are obstructed in following the
instructions from the colleges. To solve these and many such problems, the UGC
has given the students a chance to say their words. They can register their
complaints on this helpline number or can also send them on email ID. For your
