Four-Year Undergraduate Programmes as per NEP-2020|

(effective from 2021-22)

NEP Syllabus for B.Com Regular 2021-22 New!!!!

As per the NEP, the structure and duration of University degree programmes are modified. The undergraduate degree is structured for either three or four years with multiple exit options and appropriate certifications. Students are eligible for obtaining a certificate after one year of study; a diploma is awarded after two years of study, and a Bachelor’s degree is awarded after a three-year programme. Students can pursue a four-year multidisciplinary Bachelor’s degree to gain exposure to the whole spectrum of holistic education while focusing on their chosen major and minor areas. 

As NEP is based on a Choice Based Credit System (CBCS), the accumulated credits of a student are digitally stored in the Academic Bank of Credit (ABC) system. If a student chooses to transfer to a different Higher Education Institution (HEI) to study a particular topic, previous semester credits will be digitally transferred to the new HEI. The credits earned by the student will be transferable across numerous recognised higher education institutions within the state/country, allowing degrees to be awarded from any of the HEIs based on the credits earned. The 4-year programme may lead to a degree with Research if a student completes a research project as per the curriculum. 

The curriculum would fulfil the significant knowledge criteria for vocational, professional, and skill development since it incorporates humanities, arts, social, physical, and mathematical sciences, life sciences, sports, and culture.

Hence, students at Bangalore University, after completing a one-year course, would be awarded a certificate. After two years’ successful completion, a diploma is awarded. After completion of successful three years, a bachelor’s degree is awarded. After completing the four-year curriculum, students will be awarded a bachelor’s degree with honours in specific disciplines chosen. In institutions where postgraduate degrees are not provided, the only viable option is to continue with the undergraduate programme for a fourth year. Students from institutions where post-graduate courses are not provided but who wish to continue their education can apply for admission to the fourth year programme in the appropriate postgraduate departments of the University or colleges where it is available. The post-graduate programme is restructured into a one-year Master’s degree for four-year honours degree graduates and a two-year Master’s degree for three-year degree holders, based on the major/minor fields chosen in the fifth and sixth semesters of the undergraduate degree course.

2. Salient features of four years multidisciplinary UG programme

 a) Students at the end of the second, fourth and sixth semester of a degree programme exit options are provided with certification, diploma and basic Bachelor’s degrees. Students will receive a Bachelor’s degree with Honours on successfully completing all eight semesters of the Undergraduate Program either at a stretch or with opted exits and re-entries. 

b) Students who are eligible for Doctoral/Research Programme should have a Four-Year Undergraduate Honours Degree with compulsory research component paper and the students of Two Semester Master’s Degree with compulsory Project Work in the relevant subjects. 

c) Students who wish to pursue a Master’s or Doctorate in a discipline other than the major subject studied in undergraduate programmes must take additional course/s for the new discipline, which is not pursued in the previously completed course for eligibility. 

d) Students can have exit options in Five-Years Integrated Master’s Degree programme at the end of the third year programme with a Bachelor’s degree and the end of the fourth year with a Bachelor’s Honours degree. 

e) There may also be an integrated doctoral programme with an exit option at the end of the first year with the Master’s degree. 

f) Students who leave with a Certification, Diploma, or a Basic Bachelor’s Degree will be eligible to re-enter the programme at the exit level to compete or progress to the next level. 

g) The curriculum combines conceptual understanding with practical involvement and thinking to impart applicable knowledge through laboratory experiences, field work, internships, workshops, and research projects.

 h) All students must take a few required courses that will help them expand their horizons. In any academic discipline, however, two areas of specialisation allow for in-depth knowledge of the subject. 

i) Students select a ‘major discipline’ and a ‘minor discipline’ from a list of two disciplines/subjects provided by the institution. Students are expected to gain in-depth disciplinary understanding through theoretical and practical experiences, as well as an adequate knowledge base that is studied as a ‘minor discipline’. Students can choose subject combinations across the ‘streams’. 

j) Students are allowed to study two subjects in each semester up to the sixth semester. To acquire an Honours degree, they must select one of the disciplines in the fourth year. On the other hand, if students wish to possess another Honours degree in the second subject studied, they must repeat the fourth year of the course in the second subject as a major. 

k) The students may study two disciplines at the same level or breadth up to the sixth semester and choose one of them for study in the fourth year to obtain the Honours degree in that discipline. A student who wishes to get dual degrees may repeat the fourth year of the program in the second discipline.

 l) In the undergraduate degree, students might concentrate on one discipline, a vocational field or Teacher Education. They will obtain an Honours degree in either the discipline or the vocational subject/Teacher Education or both. 

m) Skills must be explicitly integrated, prominently exhibited, taught in context, and evaluated explicitly. The skills shall include language, communication and life skills, and working in various teams such as critical thinking, problem-solving and data analysis. 

n) Students will have the option of selecting courses from a range of alternatives available at the school. There will be no constraint in the subject combinations. In terms of academic standards and assessment methods, the four-year CBCS maintains a university's output up to date with worldwide trends. Bangalore University must consider adopting this strategy in globalising Indian higher education so that students can travel both inside and outside of geographical domains. 

The salient features of the credit-based semester scheme 

Each course carries a defined number of credits. The credits are based on the course structure, including the teaching mode and the number of contact hours for lecture, tutorial, and practical classes. One hour of theory/tutorial teaching per week equals one credit, and two hours of laboratory/demonstration classes per week equals one credit. Credits are considered based on the number of contact hours, course content, teaching methodology, allotted maximum marks.

While calculating the grading, one credit is equal to 25 marks in a semester. Thus, a 3 or 4 credit course will receive 100 marks, a 2 credit course would receive 50 marks, and a single credit course will receive 25 marks. The proportion of marks earned in a course and the credits given to that course are used to calculate the Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) or Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). There will be 140 credits in a three-year or six-semester undergraduate programme, 180 credits in a four-year or eight-semester honours degree programme, and 220 credits in a five-year or ten-semester Master’s degree programme. 

The general features of the Credit Based Semester Scheme are: 

a) Credits are used to quantify the relative value of the subjects

 b) The subjects of study include foundation, core & skill development courses

 c) The programme permits horizontal mobility in course selections 

d) The students shall take part in co-curricular and extension activities 

e) The result will be declared based on Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA), or Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) earned

4. DURATION OF PROGRAMMES, CREDITS REQUIREMENTS AND OPTIONS

 The undergraduate degree should be three- or four-year, with multiple entries and exit options within this period. The four-year multidisciplinary Bachelor’s programme is the preferred option. It allows the opportunity to experience the full range of holistic and multidisciplinary education, focusing on major and minor subjects as per the student’s preference. The four-year programme may also lead to a degree in Research if the student completes a rigorous research project in the study's major area(s). Thus the undergraduate programmes shall extend over four academic years (Eight Semesters) with multiple entries and exit options. The students can exit after the completion of one academic year (Two semesters) with the Certificate in a discipline or a field; Diploma after the study of Two academic years (Four Semesters); and Regular Bachelor Degree after the completion of Three academic years (Six Semesters). The successful completion of Four Years undergraduate Programmes would lead to Bachelor Degrees with Honours in a discipline/subject. Each semester shall consist of at least 16 weeks of study with a minimum of 90 working days (excluding time spent for the conduct of final examination of each semester). The credit requirements are as follows.

Exit with	Minimum credits  Requirement*	NSQF  level
