Choice Based Credit System-Semester-Grading System

In Under Graduate B.Sc. Programme

The 11th Five Year plan of India proposed various measures for academic reforms in higher education. To meet the challenges of the changing time and make the higher education in Indian Universities compatible with the universities in developed nations, the UGC (11th Plan, March 2009) and later on the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) stressed on the following recommendations:

Semester System

Choice Based Credit System

Curriculum Development

Examination Reforms

Administrative Reforms

All the above recommendations for reforms have been reviewed in by representatives of various universities in the Gujarat State and considered for implementation with the aim of transforming Higher Education a transformation where students change from being passive recipients of knowledge to becoming active participants of the knowledge imbibing process. The education system in the State the changes from a teacher-centric to learner centric mode. It should aim at all-round integral development of students personality so that they become good citizens of the new world order.

Salient Features of CBCS in UG Programme:

1. zoology subject in the University/Affiliated Colleges shall offer undergraduate programme in faculty of science from the Academic year 2011-2012

2. A student will have to get enrolled a core course depending upon his/her requirement of a degree in the said discipline of study. A student will have a choice of selecting an Elective as well as Foundation courses from a pool of courses.

3. Each course shall be assigned a specific number of credits.

4. A core course is the course which should compulsorily be studied by a candidate as a core requirement so as to get degree in a said discipline of study.

5. There shall be four core compulsory coursed (Theory) each with 3 credits and their practicals each with 1.5 credits. Thus, accredit weightage in Semester III and IV of B.Sc Programme for each core course shall be of 4.5 credits. In short, 4.5 credits multiplied by 4 cores compulsory coursed equal to total of 18 credits.

6. in addition to the core courses, a student will have to choose Elective as well as foundation courses from a pool of courses.

7. Two courses of Elective, one each from Generic elective and Interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary/Subject centric electives shall have to be offered. The credit weightage for each Elective course shall be of 02 credits. Hence, a total credit weight-age for Elective courses shall be of 4 credits.

8. One Foundation (English Language) course shall have to be offered. The credit weight-age for foundation course shall be of 02 credits.

3. Elective Generic -EG

Elective Subject -ES
