 NATIONAL EDUCATION POLICY (NEP) 2020

The National Education Policy, 2020 (NEP) aims for a comprehensive overhaul of the education system,
rooted in Indian values, to propel India, or Bharat, into a sustainable, equitable, and knowledge-driven society.
Central to this vision are pillars of Access, Equity, Quality, Affordability, and Accountability. NEP 2020
promises to equip the youth to tackle both national and global challenges by fostering multidisciplinary
education, institutional autonomy, quality research, teacher development, technology integration,
internationalization, governance restructuring, and curriculum diversification.
In higher education, NEP 2020 advocates for a holistic approach, emphasizing multidisciplinary
learning, institutional autonomy, and quality research facilitated by the National Research Foundation. It
underscores the importance of continuous teacher development, technology integration, and international
collaboration. The policy also aims to revamp governance and regulatory frameworks, diversify curricula,
enhance pedagogy, improve assessment methods, and promote content availability in Indian languages.

teachers as well as parents to promote each student's holistic development in both academic and non-
academic spheres.
l Flexibility, so that learners have the ability to choose their learning trajectories and programmes, and

thereby choose their own paths in life according to their talents and interests;
l No hard separations between arts and sciences, between curricular and extra-curricular activities,

between vocational and academic streams, etc. in order to eliminate harmful hierarchies among, and
silos between different areas of learning.
l Multidisciplinary and a holistic education across the sciences, social sciences, arts, humanities, and

sports for a multidisciplinary world in order to ensure the unity and integrity of all knowledge;
l Emphasis on conceptual understanding rather than rote learning and learning-for-exams.

l Creativity and critical thinking to encourage logical decision-making and innovation;

l Ethics and human & Constitutional values like empathy, respect for others, cleanliness, courtesy,

democratic spirit, spirit of service, respect for public property, scientific temper, liberty, responsibility,
pluralism, equality, and justice;
l Promoting multilingualism and the power of language in teaching and learning;

l Life skills such as communication, cooperation, teamwork, and resilience;

l Focus on regular formative assessment for learning rather than the summative assessment that

encourages today's 'coaching culture';

41
 l Extensive use of technology in teaching and learning, removing language barriers, increasing access
for Divyang students, and educational planning and management;
l Respect for diversity and respect for the local context in all curriculum, pedagogy, and policy,
always keeping in mind that education is a concurrent subject;
l Full equity and inclusion as the cornerstone of all educational decisions to ensure that all students are
able to thrive in the education system;
l Synergy in curriculum across all levels of education from early childhood care and education to
school education to higher education;
l Teachers and faculty as the heart of the learning process – their recruitment, continuous
professional development, positive working environments and service conditions;
l A 'light but tight' regulatory framework to ensure integrity, transparency, and resource
efficiency of the educational system through audit and public disclosure while encouraging innovation
and out-of-the-box ideas through autonomy, good governance, and empowerment;
l Outstanding research as a co requisite for outstanding education and development;
l Continuous review of progress based on sustained research and regular assessment by educational
experts;
l A rootedness and pride in India, and its rich, diverse, ancient and modern culture and knowledge
systems and traditions.
l Education is a public service; access to quality education must be considered a basic right of every
child;
l Substantial investment in a strong, vibrant public education system as well as the
encouragement and facilitation of true philanthropic private and community participation.

THE VISION OF THIS POLICY

l To contribute directly to transforming India, that is Bharat, sustainably into an equitable and vibrant
knowledge society, by providing high-quality education to all, and thereby making India a global
knowledge superpower.
l To develop a deep sense of respect towards the fundamental duties and Constitutional values, bonding
with one's country, and a conscious awareness of one's roles and responsibilities in a changing world
through curriculum and pedagogy of institutions.
l To instill a deep-rooted pride in being Indian, not only in thought, but also in spirit, intellect, and deeds, as
well as to develop knowledge, skills, values, and dispositions that support responsible commitment to
human rights, sustainable development and living, and global well-being, thereby reflecting a truly global
citizen.

ELIGIBILITY FOR UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMMES

Specific eligibility criteria for pursuing undergraduate degrees in the Arts, Science or Commerce disciplines
are specified in the Admission Guidlines of PU for the academic session 2024-25. These are also reproduced
later in this document.

COMPONENTS OF THE STRUCTURE / CURRICULUM FRAMEWORK OF UNDERGRADUATE

PROGRAM
In the inaugural year of the undergraduate program, students will have the opportunity to create a
multidisciplinary academic plan. This will include the following elements:

44
Curricular components of the undergraduate programme
The curriculum consists of major stream courses, minor stream courses and courses from other disciplines,
language courses, skill courses, and a set of courses on Environmental education, understanding India, Digital
and technological solutions, Health & Wellness, Yoga education, and sports and fitness. At the end of the
second semester, students can decide either to continue with the chosen major or request a change of major.
The minor stream courses include vocational courses which will help the students to equip with job oriented
skills.
a) Disciplinary/interdisciplinary major (72 credits for three year UG & 112 credits for four year
UG): The major would provide the opportunity for a student to pursue in-depth study of a particular
subject or discipline. Students may be allowed to change major within the broad discipline at the end of
the second semester by giving her/him sufficient time to explore interdisciplinary courses during the
first year. Advanced-level disciplinary/interdisciplinary courses, a course in research methodology, and
a project/dissertation will be conducted in the seventh semester. The final semester will be devoted to
seminar presentation, preparation, and submission of project report/dissertation. The project
work/dissertation will be on a topic in the disciplinary programme of study or an interdisciplinary topic.

b) Disciplinary/interdisciplinary minors (24 credits for three year UG & 32 credits for four year
UG): : Students will have the option to choose courses from disciplinary/interdisciplinary minors and
skill-based courses relating to a chosen vocational education programme. Students who take a
sufficient number of courses in a discipline or an interdisciplinary area of study other than the chosen
major will qualify for a minor in that discipline or in the chosen interdisciplinary area of study. A student
may declare the choice of the minor and vocational stream at the end of the second semester, after
exploring various courses.

45
46
emphasis on language and communication skills. The courses aim at enabling the students to acquire and
demonstrate the core linguistic skills, including critical reading and expository and academic writing
skills, that help students articulate their arguments and present their thinking clearly and coherently and
recognize the importance of language as a mediator of knowledge and identity. They would also enable
students to acquaint themselves with the cultural and intellectual heritage of the chosen MIL and English
language, as well as to provide a reflective understanding of the structure and complexity of the
language/literature related to both the MIL and English language. The courses will also emphasize the
development and enhancement of skills such as communication, and the ability to participate/conduct
discussion and debate.

e) Skills Enhancement Courses (SEC) (09 Credits) : These courses are aimed at imparting
practical skills, hands-on training, soft skills, etc., to enhance the employability of students. The
institution may design courses as per the students’ needs and available institutional resources.

f) Value-Added Courses (VAC) Common to All UG Students (6-8 credits) These courses are
aimed at imparting practical skills, hands-on training, soft skills, etc., to enhance the employability of
students. The institution may design courses as per the students’ needs and available institutional
resources.
I. Understanding India: The course aims at enabling the students to acquire and demonstrate the
knowledge and understanding of contemporary India with its historical perspective, the basic
framework of the goals and policies of national development, and the constitutional obligations with
special emphasis on constitutional values and fundamental rights and duties. The course would also
focus on developing an understanding among student-teachers of the Indian knowledge systems,
the Indian education system, and the roles and obligations of teachers to the nation in general and to
the school/community/society. The course will attempt to deepen knowledge about and
understanding of India’s freedom struggle and of the values and ideals that it represented to develop
an appreciation of the contributions made by people of all sections and regions of the country, and
help learners understand and cherish the values enshrined in the Indian Constitution and to prepare
them for their roles and responsibilities as effective citizens of a democratic society.
ii. Environmental science/education: The course seeks to equip students with the ability to apply
the acquired knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values required to take appropriate actions for
mitigating the effects of environmental degradation, climate change, and pollution, effective waste
management, conservation of biological diversity, management of biological resources, forest and
wildlife conservation, and sustainable development and living. The course will also deepen the
knowledge and understanding of India’s environment in its totality, its interactive processes, and its
effects on the future quality of people’s lives.
ii. Digital and technological solutions: Courses in cutting-edge areas that are fast gaining
prominences, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), 3-D machining, big data analysis, machine learning,

47
 drone technologies, and Deep learning with important applications to health, environment, and
sustainable living that will be woven into undergraduate education for enhancing the employability of
the youth.
IV. Health & Wellness, Yoga education, sports, and fitness: : Course components relating to
health and wellness seek to promote an optimal state of physical, emotional, intellectual, social,
spiritual, and environmental well-being of a person. Sports and fitness activities will be organized
outside the regular institutional working hours. Yoga education would focus on preparing the
students physically and mentally for the integration of their physical, mental, and spiritual faculties,
and equipping them with basic knowledge about one’s personality, maintaining selfdiscipline and
self-control, to learn to handle oneself well in all life situations. The focus of sports and fitness
components of the courses will be on the improvement of physical fitness including the
improvement of various components of physical and skills-related fitness like strength, speed,
coordination, endurance, and flexibility; acquisition of sports skills including motor skills as well as
basic movement skills relevant to a particular sport; improvement of tactical abilities; and
improvement of mental abilities.
The HEIs may introduce other innovative value-added courses relevant to the discipline or common to
all UG programmes.

g) Summer Internship /Apprenticeship (2 – 4 credits) : A key aspect of the new UG programme is

induction into actual work situations. All students will also undergo internships / Apprenticeships in a
firm, industry, or organization or Training in labs with faculty and researchers in their own or other
HEIs/research institutions during the summer term. Students will be provided with opportunities for
internships with local industry, business organizations, health and allied areas, local governments (such as
panchayats, municipalities), Parliament or elected representatives, media organizations, artists, crafts
persons, and a wide variety of organizations so that students may actively engage with the practical side
of their learning and, as a by-product, further improve their employability. Students who wish to exit
after the first two semesters will undergo a 4-credit workbased learning/internship during the summer
term in order to get a UG Certificate.
Community engagement and service: The curricular component of ‘community engagement and
service’ seeks to expose students to the socio-economic issues in society so that the theoretical learnings
can be supplemented by actual life experiences to generate solutions to real-life problems. This can be
part of summer term activity or part of a major or minor course depending upon the major discipline.
Field-based learning/minor project: The field-based learning/minor project will attempt to provide
opportunities for students to understand the different socioeconomic contexts. It will aim at giving
students exposure to development-related issues in rural and urban settings. It will provide
opportunities for students to observe situations in rural and urban contexts, and to observe and study
actual field situations regarding issues related to socioeconomic development. Students will be given
opportunities to gain a first-hand understanding of the policies, regulations, organizational structures,

48
 processes, and programmes that guide the development process. They would have the opportunity to
gain an understanding of the complex socio-economic problems in the community, and innovative
practices required to generate solutions to the identified problems. This may be a summer term project
or part of a major or minor course depending on the subject of study.

h) Research Project / Dissertation (12 Credits) : Students choosing a 4-Year Bachelor’s degree
(Honours with Research) are required to take up research projects under the guidance of a faculty
member. The students are expected to complete the Research Project in the eighth semester. The
research outcomes of their project work may be published in peer-reviewed journals or may be
presented in conferences /seminars or may be patented.

Credit Hour Allocation for Different Course Types

The workload associated with a course will be measured in terms of credit hours. One credit hour is
equivalent to one hour of instructional time per week over the duration of a semester (minimum 15 weeks).

Credit Hours per Course Component

The weekly and semester-wise instructional hours associated with each credit for different components are as
follows:
49
 Table: Credit Hours per Course Component

Letter Grades and Grade Points

The Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) is computed from the grades as a measure of the student's
performance in a given semester. The SGPA is based on the grades of the current term, while the Cumulative
GPA (CGPA) is based on the grades in all courses taken after joining the programme of study. The HEIs may
also mention marks obtained in each course and a weighted average of marks based on marks obtained in all
the semesters taken together for the benefit of students.

Computation of SGPA and CGPA

The UGC recommends the following procedure to compute the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) and
Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA):

I. The SGPA is the ratio of the sum of the product of the number of credits with the grade points scored by a
student in all the courses taken by a student and the sum of the number of credits of all the courses undergone
by a student, i.e.

SGPA (Si) = ∑(Ci x Gi) / ∑Ci

Where Ci is the number of credits of the ith course and Gi is the grade point scored
by the student in the ith course.

50
 UGC recommends the following procedure to compute the SGPA CGPA
SGPA (Si)=∑(Ci × Gi)/∑Ci
Ci is the number of Credits of the ith Course and
Gi is the grade point scored by the student in the ith course.

Example for Computation of SGPA

CGPA=∑(Ci × Si)/∑Ci
Si is the SGPA of the ith semester and
Ci is the total number of credits in that semester
Example for Computation of CGPA

Academic Bank of Credit (ABC)

Under NEP 2020, the students are required to store credits for the completion of learning journey.
Academic Bank of Credits (ABC) is a platform provided by Govt. of India that stores the information of the
credits earned by an individual students throughout his/her education programme.

An Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) of each student, will be established which would store the academic
credits earned by a student from various recognized HEIs, so that the degrees from an HEI can be
awarded taking into account the total credits earned.
