Salient features
In view of the comprehensive revisions made by Andhra Pradesh State council for higher education (APSCHE) after considering the representations from students, staff unions, individual undergraduate teachers, UGC model and international models, the college has incorporated those changes in its curriculum for 2016-17 and 2017-18 admitted batch in the interest of student’s.
1. One of the main reforms kept in view in introducing CBCS is to enhance higher order skills, such as analytical skills, problem solving, reviewing and judging, and creativity in undergraduate students. Thus the syllabus designed is in accordance to the ‘teaching hours’.
2. Typical English and Second language components are restricted to first three semesters. Related Foundation Courses occupy their place in the fourth semester. Some of them will be taught by English and Second Language teachers, so that their workload doesn’t get reduced.
3. The quantum of total marks, total teaching hours and total credits can differ from semester to semester and course to course as the evaluation is through CGPA method.
4. There is no formal internal examinations (Mid Sem) for foundation courses and the practical component of domain courses.
5. In case of others, in respect of formal internal examinations (Mid Sem) the marks split between Formal Test and Co-curricular activities is 60:40
6. For Science Domain Subjects which had no lab practical component earlier (eg. Mathematics) there is no practical component in the new model also.
7. In every course, the 6th (F) and 8th (H) papers of each of the domain specific subjects that fall in semesters V & VI may be an Elective. More than one Elective may be offered giving choice to students. The Electives may be of Domain (applied/specialization) or Inter-disciplinary in V Semester. Whereas the Elective of VI Semester may be Domain (applied/specialization) or Inter-disciplinary or General in nature.
8. The Total Credits for a BA/B.Com course will be 142 and for B.Sc. Course, 164.
